Daily Prayer: Day 174

From Simple Prayers, Day 174

I DRAW NEAR TO YOU, GOD

God, I want Your Word to be deeply implanted in me so that I not only know the truth, but also express it in the way I live.

You are worthy, our Lord and God,
To receive glory and honor and power,
For You created all things,
And by Your will they were created and have their being. (Revelation 4:11)

Take a moment to affirm the truth of these words from Scripture and ask God to make them a growing reality in your life.

THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE

“The Lord lives! Blessed be my Rock! Exalted be God, the Rock of my salvation! (2 Samuel 22:47)

If the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean, how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God? (Hebrews 9:13–14)

I LISTEN TO YOUR WORDS OF TRUTH

Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim You, who walk in the light of Your presence, O Lord. They rejoice in Your name all day long, and they are exalted in Your righteousness. (Psalm 89:15–16)

MY RESPONSE TO YOU, LORD

I want to abound in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all diligence, in love, and in the grace of giving. (2 Corinthians 8:7)

I want to abound in love and faith toward the Lord Jesus and to all the saints. (Philemon 5)

Lord, I thank You that You are the Rock of my salvation and that the blood of Christ has cleansed my sins. I pray that I would learn to acclaim You, and I ask that I would abound in love and faith.
