Daily Prayer Day 309

I DRAW NEAR TO YOU, GOD

Lord, I give thanks for Your greatness, your goodness, and your love, and I now draw near to enjoy your presence.

The works of the Lord’s hands are truth and justice;
All His precepts are trustworthy. 
They stand firm for ever and ever,
Done in faithfulness and uprightness. 
He sent redemption to His people;
He has ordained His covenant forever;
Holy and awesome is His name.  (Psalm 111:7-9)

Your name, O Lord, endures forever,
Your renown, O Lord, through all generations.  (Psalm 135:13)

Take a moment to consider God’s awesome majesty and thank Him that He loves you and wants an intimate relationship with you.

THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE

You must be treated as holy by those who come near You, and before all people, You will be honored.  (Leviticus 10:3)

For those who revere Your name, the Sun of righteousness will rise with healing in His wings.  And they will go out and leap like calves released from the stall.  (Malachi 4:2)

I LISTEN TO YOUR WORDS OF TRUTH

We are an epistle from Christ, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone, but on tablets of human hearts.  (2 Corinthians 3:3)

MY RESPONSE TO YOU, LORD

I will not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul, but rather, I will fear the One who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.  (Matthew 10:28)

I want to be more concerned about the things of God than the things of men.  (Mark 8:33)

Lord, I thank You for Your unblemished holiness and for Your promise to perfect those who revere Your name.  I thank You for the Spirit of the living God who resides in my heart, and I ask that I would revere You more than men.
