Join us in today’s devotion and prayer-
Read the Psalm in your favorite version or in the following KJV and then join us in praying below:
He
33 Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.
34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.
36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.
37 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken thou me in thy way.
38 Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.
39 Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good.
40 Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness. (KJV)
Our Father,
Teach us, O Lord, your ways, and your statutes; that we may walk in them all the days of our lives. Give us understanding, that we may observe your teaching and demonstrate your love with our whole heart. Lead us in the paths of your commandments; for we delight in your paths. Incline our hearts to treasure your testimonies and creative works of the past and the blessings that you have given us in this life and the hope of the eternal life to come.
Through the help of your Holy Spirit, write your teaching on our hearts that we might observe them daily and that they may become a natural part of our daily lives. Inspire us O Lord to become your faithful servants and fulfill the destiny you have for us and your church.
Let us have a part in the great world-wide harvest in this generation and let us see revival and a new awakening in this nation. Bring healing to America with love and peace in our streets instead of the chaos and violence we are now experiencing in our cities. We want to see the banner of your Son Jesus flying over our land once more from sea to shining sea.
In Jesus name, Amen.
