It’s easy to define our success as a Christian by what we do, rather than who we know. This prayer refocuses our attention to Christ, while at the same time rejecting performance-based religion. Take this prayer, make it into your own words, then pray it with all your heart. Then share it with all your friends on all your social media platforms.

Prayer

Father, I can’t allow law keeping, self-righteousness and pride to rob my opportunity to know Christ on a deeper level. The pathway of performance-based religion is in direct opposition to the humiliation needed to engage Jesus. In light of this, I choose to consider every success a loss if those successes steal my urgency and keep me from diving deep into Jesus. My Christian walk will be centered on Jesus and my relationship with him. Teach me to engage him and not only perform for him in Jesus name, amen.

Philippians 3:2-9

Watch out for those dogs, those evildoers, those mutilators of the flesh. For it is we who are the circumcision, we who serve God by his Spirit, who boast in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh—though I myself have reasons for such confidence. If someone else thinks they have reasons to put confidence in the flesh, I have more: circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee; as for zeal, persecuting the church; as for righteousness based on the law, faultless. But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith.

Here are some prayers that will help us to focus on Christ.
