Wash and make yourselves clean. Take your evil deeds out of my sight; stop doing wrong. 17Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.

If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good things of the land; 20but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword.” For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.

Lord God my Father,

Look deep into me and remove the filth in me and restore me to your creation. Make me clean, strong and dedicated to your will and bring your protection over me so I may delight in the struggles of the day as I learn from them.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
