Day 68:
Scripture: You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions (James 4:3).

Reflection: Check your heart … why do you pray? James 4:3 says selfish motives block answers. Delighting in God aligns desires (Psalm 37:4). Shift prayer today to His glory, not your gain. Chasing Him means seeking His kingdom first.

Today’s Challenge: Shift prayer to seek God’s glory today.

Prayer: Lord, purify my motives. Lead my pursuit for Your glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
