Day 089

 

Father, 

We praise You for Your faithfulness. We see it on every page of scripture. In the midst of every rebellion and every act of idolatry, we see You continue to be faithful to a faithless people. Thank You for chasing after our hearts so persistently. 

Have mercy on me, a sinner. We repent of our sins and turn to You and we ask You to make our hearts clean. Help us to see our sin as weighty. We don’t want our repentance to be short-lived like the Israelites.

Grant us righteous leaders and grant us humble hearts to obey. Keep us from hedging on our obedience. And when we do disobey You, grant us quick and complete repentance. We want to be confessional and repentant before You every day, Lord. Growing closer to You often means we’ll see more areas where we need to repent, as You graciously reveal our hearts to us more and more. So we ask that You also show us reminders that our sin doesn’t scare You off. Because the blood of Your Son Jesus covers our sins, You have already declared us righteous and in right standing before You, even as we stand here in the midst of our sins. What great love and mercy You have for Your kids! Thank You for that, Father! 

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.
