You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet. Matthew 5:13 (ESV).
Heavenly Father this is so real and serious that it can happen to me if my walk and my talk are inconsistent, and do not reflect the faith I profess. May I deliberately take some quiet moments today to reflect on this solemn truth, and examine how this saltiness in me can positively influence people around me. Dear Heavenly Father may I be the salt to make someone thirst creating a genuine desire to want to know the true meaning of life. In Jesus' wonderful name I pray.

Righteousness Matters To Christ
Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you. Matthew 5:10-12 (ESV).
Dear Lord Jesus I pray for the strength to face daily challenges without compromising on righteous living for I know this matters to you. I also pray for wisdom to speak truth firmly yet lovingly. Let your love be my motivation to please you while managing difficult people and handling unfavourable cursumstances. May I grow in this area of my walk with you Lord. I thank you for inner peace and joy in my heart as I receive the assurance of your guidance. In your gracious name i pray.

To Be Consumed By God's Righteousness
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. Matthew 5:6 (ESV).
