Ever seeking

“Sacrifice thank offerings to God, fulfill your vows to the Most High, 15and call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”

God looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.

Lord God my Father,

Protect me from evil attack and keep me close to your heart. I seek you in all things, show me where I am compromised so I may seek you completely. I wish to seek you first in all my thoughts.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Forgiving self

Do not remember the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you, Lord, are good.

Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. 17Relieve the troubles of my heart and free me from my anguish. 18Look on my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins.

Lord God my Father,

You forgive me for my past sin, help me to release the past so I may live now free with you. Help me to see as you do and believe from your desire above my own. Continue your blessings on me and help me to see them over my struggles.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

One nature

Then David was angry because the Lord’s wrath had broken out against Uzzah,

“Who am I, Sovereign Lord, and what is my family, that you have brought me this far?

“You, my God, have revealed to your servant that you will build a house for him. So your servant has found courage to pray to you.

Lord God my Father,

Keep me from judging you when I don’t understand your plan. Keep me in your Peace and make that enough for me to follow. Lord God, I don’t have to understand you, just follow you. Help me to live by your nature more than my understanding. You show me who you are and I want to become more like you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Path to restoration

Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your resence, Lord. 16They rejoice in your name all day long; they celebrate your righteousness. 17For you are their glory and strength,

He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in his faithfulness.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to identify where I am more important than you in my thoughts. Help me to own my broken way so I may give it to you completely. Help me to grow in Peace and release my desire to understand so your understanding can rest on me well. Keep me from judgmental thinking so all my focus is on my restoration.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Glorious

for dominion belongs to the Lord and he rules over the nations.

he leads me beside quiet waters, 3he refreshes my soul.

The Lord Almighty— he is the King of glory.

Lord God my Father,

You are all powerful and rule over all. Lord, take me and use me as you see fit. Give me your strength and courage to do you will. Your way is filled with Glory and Peace.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Celebrate all

David and all the Israelites were celebrating with all their might before God, with songs and with harps, lyres, timbrels, cymbals and trumpets.

Then David was angry because the Lord’s wrath had broken out against Uzzah, and to this day that place is called Perez Uzzah.

The ark of God remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house for three months, and the Lord blessed his household and everything he had.

The Lord answered him, “Go, I will deliver them into your hands.”

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.

Then all the people left, each for their own home, and David returned home to bless his family.

Lord God my Father,

I celebrate you in everything I say and do. Help me to keep this constant across all areas of my life. Bless my family with your goodness and protection. Deliver us from the struggles of the day and help us learn the wisdom and strength you desire us to know and help us file the emotional baggage properly.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

One

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.

But they soon forgot what he had done and did not wait for his plan to unfold.

for they rebelled against the Spirit of God,

Praise the Lord.

Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.

Let the one who is wise heed these things and ponder the loving deeds of the Lord.

Lord God my Father,

You are the only good that lives in me, overwhelm me and make me yours completely. Help me to know you and accept you as Lord over all of me. I praise you and cry out to you for deliverance over my foolish ways. Help me to Love as you do.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

His battle.

And he became more and more powerful, because the Lord God Almighty was with him.

So David did as the Lord commanded him, and he struck down the Philistines all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.

the Lord brought about a great victory.

These Gadites were army commanders; the least was a match for a hundred, and the greatest for a thousand. 

Lord God my Father,

You are my strength and purpose. Help me to learn how to allow you full access to my thoughts and actions. You are Lord over all I am, help me to live this Truth. Show me where I have accepted compromise in how I live and destroy your enemy within me so I may be free to worship you as I should.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

One path

I will sing to the Lord all my life;

I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.

34May my meditation be pleasing to him,

as I rejoice in the Lord.

35But may sinners vanish from the earth

and the wicked be no more.

Praise the Lord, my soul.

Praise the Lord.

Lord God my Father,

Thank you for your design and my ability to pursue it. Make my path straight and keep my thoughts protected. Remove my ability to ponder sin so I may only ponder you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

By design

All these were descendants of Asher—heads of families, choice men, brave warriors and outstanding leaders. The number of men ready for battle, as listed in their genealogy, was 26,000.

Saul died because he was unfaithful to the Lord; he did not keep the word of the Lord and even consulted a medium for guidance, 14and did not inquire of the Lord. So the Lord put him to death and turned the kingdom over to David son of Jesse.

Lord God my Father,

Thank you for your plan and how you designed my life. Help me to be obedient to your desire and not my own. Change me to fit your plan.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
