Prayer For Becoming A Virtuous Woman

Heavenly Father,

Create in me the heart of a virtuous woman as you make me a new creature in Christ. Help me to take off the old woman with the spirit of the children of disobedience who fulfill the desires of the flesh and the mind. Help me to flee from my identity as a child of wrath.

Thank you for sending Jesus Christ to die on the cross for my sins that I might put off the old woman which was corrupt and filled with deceitful lusts. Instead, let me be renewed in the spirit of my mind and put on the new woman which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

Lord, grant me according to the riches of your glory to be strengthened with might by your spirit in me. May Christ dwell in my heart by faith.

Amen.
(From Ephesians 2, 3)
