Delightfully

“As surely as the Lord lives, who has delivered me out of every trouble, 30I will surely carry out this very day what I swore to you by the Lord, the God of Israel:

The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him; 24though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand.

As for me, I will always have hope; I will praise you more and more. 15My mouth will tell of your righteous deeds, of your saving acts all day long—

Lord God my Father,

You have delivered me to today, I know you will carry me through my trials. Lord give me the desire to do you will today with your Peace as my strength and help me to praise you in all things at all times.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Giving myself freely

 Now, who is willing to consecrate themselves to the Lord today?”

6Then the leaders of families, the officers of the tribes of Israel, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, and the officials in charge of the king’s work gave willingly. 7They gave toward the work on the temple of God five thousand talents and ten thousand darics of gold, ten thousand talents of silver, eighteen thousand talents of bronze and a hundred thousand talents of iron. 8Anyone who had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the temple of the Lord in the custody of Jehiel the Gershonite. 9The people rejoiced at the willing response of their leaders, for they had given freely and wholeheartedly to the Lord. David the king also rejoiced greatly.

I know, my God, that you test the heart and are pleased with integrity. All these things I have given willingly and with honest intent. And now I have seen with joy how willingly your people who are here have given to you. 

Lord God I am a sinner who struggles to release my life to you completely. Take me and use me to do your will. Give me a day that honor’s you only, remove my selfish nature and soften my way to only desire to serve you alone.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Light forever

Even in darkness light dawns for the upright,

The wicked will see and be vexed, they will gnash their teeth and waste away;

Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob, 8who turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water.

You who fear him, trust in the Lord— he is their help and shield.

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

Lord God my Father,

You are my light and delight, the darkness has no place to rest on me for your Truth protects me. Nothing can stand in your presence but light. Thank you for letting me know you and allowing me to truly rest in your presence.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Perfect day

Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.

How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! 18I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!

Rescue me from my enemies, Lord; I run to you to hide me. 10Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. May your gracious Spirit lead me forward on a firm footing.

Lord God my Father,

Your design in overwhelming, your plan, beyond my understanding. Lord help me to be still and know you, Help me to follow you today without advising you of how I want it to go. Give me one day of dependance only on your will so I may experience your perfection. Your protection is enough, your plan is perfect. My struggle is to control you and not allow you to have your way. Thank you for you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

One in desire

Appoint someone evil to oppose my enemy; let an accuser stand at his right hand. 7When he is tried, let him be found guilty, and may his prayers condemn him.

The Lord is at your right hand; he will crush kings on the day of his wrath. 6He will judge the nations, heaping up the dead and crushing the rulers of the whole earth.

Lord God my Father,

You fight all my battles, keep me from wishing to direct you and understand your plan. Make me still and obedient so I may act on your desire within me without filtering you through my desires.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Restored

But you will have a son who will be a man of peace and rest, and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side. 

 Lord my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.

You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, 12that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. Lord my God, I will praise you forever.

Lord God my Father,

With you, I am at peace. You comfort me in difficult times, you know me. Your strength carries me through my weakness, and you heal my spirit. You restore delight to my soul and bring restoration and peace.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Made holy

For forty years I was angry with that generation; I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray, and they have not known my ways.’ 11So I declared on oath in my anger, ‘They shall never enter my rest.’ ”

Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his holy mountain, for the Lord our God is holy.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to only represent you in my life so your blessing will flow from me. Only you are good.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

My delight

“The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; 3my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge,

He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.

Lord God my Father,

Lord God, you are my rock I stand on and you bring blessing to all I do in your name. You are the delight in my soul I wish to share with your people to allow them to know you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Servant

But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.

For I am about to fall, and my pain is ever with me. 18I confess my iniquity; I am troubled by my sin.

Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.

Lord God my Father,

You protect me and guide me; with you I am safe and at Peace. When I fall you pick me up and I rejoice and am made stronger. You are my hope and my future.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
