11-10-23   THOUGHTS

The following speaks for itself!  We must diligently seek an
       INTIMATE ACQUAINTANCE with our God!  Practice God’s PRESENCE!

Ps 139:1-10     O LORD, You have searched me and known me. 2  You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar. 3  You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And are intimately acquainted with all my ways. 4  Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O LORD, You know it all. 5  You have enclosed me behind and before,  And laid Your hand upon me. 6  Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is too high, I cannot attain to it. 7  Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?  8  If I ascend to heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there.  9  If I take the wings of the dawn, If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea, 10  Even there Your hand will lead me, And Your right hand will lay hold of me.
Ps 139:23-24     Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me and know my anxious thoughts;  24  And see if there be any hurtful way in me, And lead me in the everlasting way.
Song #784 in our book   Search Me, O God   James E. Orr, 1936  copyright status-Public Domain

The Song is My Prayer.  Think carefully on these words!:
Search me, O God, and know my heart today,
     Try me, O Savior, know my thoughts, I pray;
     See if there be some wicked way in me;
     Cleanse me from every sin, and set me free.
I praise Thee, Lord, for cleansing me from sin;
     Fulfill Thy word and make me pure within;
     Fill me with fire, where once I burned with shame;
     Grant my desire to magnify Thy name.
Lord, take my life, and make it wholly Thine;
     Fill my poor heart with Thy great love divine;
     Take all my will, my passion, self and pride;
     I now surrender, Lord, in me abide.
O Holy Ghost, revival comes from Thee;
     Send a revival, start the work in me;
     Thy Word declares Thou wilt supply our need;
     For blessings now, O Lord, I humbly plead.

In the name of Jesus,    Amen
