Lord, how I do love Your Word. Not only is it the weapon You have given us against the enemy, but it is life, and truth, and love. Your Word is living and powerful. It transforms and reforms. It cleanses and guides. It breathes life into our thirsty souls.
I love Pr. 10:3, that says You will not allow the righteous soul to famish. Lord, Your Word is living water and food for our hungry souls. Only You can fill the void within us. That is why we can delight in Your Word and in Your commandments; because Your Word protects us, shapes us, and breathes truth into our inmost beings.
Lord, we can walk securely and at liberty when we follow Your precepts. Your precepts and commands are what keep us safe. In Proverbs 10, Solomon wrote of the peril, destruction, danger, and consequences of living a life outside of Your will. But, oh my God, You made us Your righteousness through the blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ, and You, Lord, will keep us safe when we follow You.
Lord, keep my feet from stumbling onto any path that is not laid out by You. When I face a fork in the road, let Your law I have kept be my compass. Let Your statutes I have meditated upon make my decisions easy and my choices clear. Lord, Your Word gives me very clear guidance. Help me to heed it.
Thank You that Your way is strength for the upright. Thank You that the righteous will never be removed, and that our labor leads to life. Thank You for the security, the love, and the salvation that You have given us.
Oh God, let me be wise enough to make You glad. Let my life please You and be a sweet-smelling offering for You, as I walk in love and in Your wisdom. You are the amazing God!
I love you,
jamie
