For my part, I wholeheartedly followed the lord my God.
Lord God,
May I have a heart for you that will one day allow me to say I wholeheartedly follow you. Lord God, I am unable to do this on my own, I need you for my courage and strength.

So the Israelites examined their food, but they did not consult the lord.
Three days after making the treaty, they learned that these people actually lived nearby

Among the plunder I saw a beautiful robe from Babylon, 200 silver coins, and a bar of gold weighing more than a pound. I wanted them so much that I took them.
And all the Israelites stoned Achan and his family and burned their bodies.
So the lord was no longer angry.
Lord God my father,
I submit to your authority and confess my sins to you. There are things in my life I want even when they are bad for me and forbidden by you. I have idols in my life that come before you. Lord God I am tired of fighting your will. Give me power to slay the idols in my life and worship you wholehearted this day.
In Jesus name,
Amen
For I will be with you as I was with Moses. I will not fail you or abandon you.
Lord God,
Give me the courage and strength to do your will over my own. Allow me to do your miracles in the path you lay before me.
May I build monuments beside the areas in my life you help me to conquer.
In Jesus name,
Amen
He surrounded them and watched over them;
he guarded them as he would guard his own eyes.
The lord alone guided them;
they followed no foreign gods.
“But Israel soon became fat and unruly;
the people grew heavy, plump, and stuffed!
Then they abandoned the God who had made them;
they made light of the Rock of their salvation.
16They stirred up his jealousy by worshiping foreign gods;
they provoked his fury with detestable deeds.
You failed to demonstrate my holiness to the people of Israel
Lord God,
Be with me and protect my eyes and thoughts, keep me in safe places where temptation cannot find me, guide me and give me strength to stay on your path. Protect me from getting lazy in your presence and live in your grace without growing closer to you. Demonstrate your holiness thru me. May I be your servant.
In Jesus name,
Amen
If at that time you and your children return to the lord your God, and if you obey with all your heart and all your soul all the commands I have given you today, 3then the lord your God will restore your fortunes.
Then my anger will blaze forth against them. I will abandon them, hiding my face from them, and they will be devoured. Terrible trouble will come down on them, and on that day they will say, ‘These disasters have come down on us because God is no longer among us!’
“Be strong and courageous,
Lord God,
I want to be obedient to you, now help me with my disobedience, Grant me the strength and courage to overcome my weakness and replace it with your will. Lord God I am tired of disappointment I cause you and myself. May I allow your blessing to flow thru me this day.
in Jesus name,
Amen
You will experience all these blessings if you obey the lord your God:
“Those who hear the warnings of this curse should not congratulate themselves, thinking, ‘I am safe, even though I am following the desires of my own stubborn heart.’ This would lead to utter ruin!
“The lord our God has secrets known to no one. We are not accountable for them, but we and our children are accountable forever for all that he has revealed to us, so that we may obey all the terms of these instructions.
Lord God,
Purify my heart, protect my spirit, give me power to destroy the evil desires I gave to not follow all your commands. Reveal to me your desire and grant me confidence to attack and destroy them so I may follow you wholehearted and completely follow you.
In Jesus name,
Amen
So be careful to obey them wholeheartedly.
And if you do, he will set you high above all the other nations he has made.
You will be a nation that is holy to the lord your God, just as he promised.
Lord God,
Help me today to remove any areas I don’t trust you to handle in my life. Remove the barriers that block me from trusting you so I may act on all desires you have for me today.
In Jesus name,
Amen
However, it is not a sin to refrain from making a vow. 23But once you have voluntarily made a vow, be careful to fulfill your promise to the lord your God.
Lord God,
Be in my thoughts, direct my way, lead me to your path and may I commit to doing your will and may it become my way.
In Jesus name,
Amen
“You must never set up a wooden Asherah pole beside the altar you build for the lord your God. 22And never set up sacred pillars for worship, for the lord your God hates them.
Lord God,
Reveal the areas I worship in my life and give me power to defeat the idols I carry that distract me from you. My my worship of you be complete.
