Day 229

Father, 

We praise You for vigilantly preserving Your Word. We are so grateful that You’ve spoken to us at all, that You want to be known by us. Heaven and earth will pass away, but Your words will not pass away. 

We don’t always treasure them as we should, God. Like the king, sometimes we want to cut out certain pieces. We don’t want to hear the truth. We repent of our arrogance and willful ignorance, God. Have mercy on me. Have mercy on me, a sinner. Make our hearts clean.

Would You help us to treasure Your Word all the more? Carve out time for us to spend reading it. Give us wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Help us know how to live it out in a way that glorifies You, even in prison, like Jeremiah did. Put us in the paths of kings and prisoners alike who need to hear Your truth, and give us the strength to speak it. Give us the faithfulness of the Rechabites, for Your glory. 

We surrender our lives to You, Lord—every moment of our day, each decision we make, we yield our will and way to Your perfect will and way. 

We love You too. Amen.
