Because of your great sin and hostility, you say, “The prophets are crazy and the inspired men are fools!”

Plow up the hard ground of your hearts, for now is the time to seek the Lord, that he may come and shower righteousness upon you.’

“You are about to be destroyed, O Israel— yes, by me, your only helper.

Lord God my Father,

Protect me under your authority and keep my sin nature away from my thoughts. Soften my way so your will is the only one in me and draw me closer to your delightful way.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
