From Simple Prayers, Day 188
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.
Every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea and all that is in them, will sing:
“To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
Be blessing and honor and glory and power
For ever and ever!” (Revelation 5:13)
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
Your word is truth. (John 17:17)
The things that happened to the Israelites in the wilderness were examples and were written for our admonition, upon whom the fulfillment of the ages has come. (1 Corinthians 10:11)
I LISTEN TO YOUR WORDS OF TRUTH
“Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,” says the Lord of hosts. (Zechariah 4:6)
MY RESPONSE TO YOU, LORD
Wealth gained by dishonesty will dwindle, but he who gathers by labor will increase. (Proverbs 13:11)
A good name is more desirable than great riches; favor is better than silver or gold. (Proverbs 22:1)
Lord, I thank You for the truth of Your Word and for its timeless application to every life. I thank You for the power of Your Spirit, and I ask that I would not sacrifice my integrity to gain wealth.
