Opening Prayer: Almighty God, fill me with Your Holy Spirit, so I may be pure and acceptable in Your eyes. Amen.

Read: James 5
Reflect: What does James mean when he tells us not to swear? Why should sin be confessed to other people? How should we respond when we find ourselves in sin?

Hymn: “Holy Spirit, Light Divine”
Holy Spirit, Light divine,
Shine upon this heart of mine.
Chase the shades of night away;
Turn my darkness into day.

Holy Spirit, Power divine,
Cleanse this guilty heart of mine.
Long hath sin without control
Held dominion over my soul.

Holy Spirit, Joy divine,
Cheer this saddened heart of mine.
Bid my many woes depart;
Heal my wounded, bleeding heart.

Holy Spirit, all divine,
Dwell within this heart of mine.
Cast down every idol throne;
Reign supreme, and reign alone.

Closing Prayer: May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance. (2 Thessalonians 3:5)
