God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Examples where honesty should be employed by Christians:
1. When completing income tax forms.
2. When selling an automobile.
3. When you are given too much change.
4. When you are told a rumor.
5. When you break something.
6. When you owe people money.
7. When someone calls and you do not want to talk to them.
8. When you are reminiscing and telling a story.
9. When you tell someone how much you paid for something.
10. When you are asked for your opinion or advice.
11. When you fill out a credit application.
12. When you give character references.
For us as sinful men and women, prayer is not designed to align God with our will, but to align our will with God. Prayer is not to make God more like us but to make us more like God. It should firm up the muscles of our faith.
