Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. (Psalm 51:10)
It is easier than we think to get upside down in spiritual things. Once we begin to lead with our emotions, intellect, will, or flesh, we are immediately out-of-sorts, and only the Spirit of God can correct us. He has the truth at His disposal, and He will use that truth to help us realize our error and to repent. When we are wise, He gets our attention with just a whisper — but when we are foolish, He has to bring correction through difficulty and pain. Let us choose to be wise and obedient.
God deeply desires that you come to Him; and when you draw near to Him, He will draw near to you. He, and only He can make you holy and give you the power to live in a way that glorifies Him — that is why you come. So, come and let Him search you and remove anything that does not please Him. Come, and He will cleanse your heart and renew a right spirit within you. Just come! "Come unto Me . . ."
Let’s pray - O Lord, open our eyes and give us a new heart and spirit. Help us to be easily entreated and quick to come to Jesus. Thank You for your grace and patience. Amen.
AMEN!!!! Have your way in my life ohhhhh God.
ReplyDeleteThe saying “better to ask forgiveness than ask permission” does NOT apply to Godly living! Saving myself the trouble-to obey is better than sacrifice (1Samuel 15:32)
