11-15-22 THOUGHTS
An overwhelmed spirit pleads for quick help! We’ve been there haven’t we? The one needing help here notes a number of good reasons that the Lord ought to aid. His remembering, meditation and musing, stretching out, a longing, and finally, that he is a servant. At a tad before 5 AM, I love the words “Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning.” In the midst of some powerful words about trusting and teaching and walking, we find “revive me”! I am in need of continual revival. Though written years ago, these are “my words”, my desires! I want God’s “Good Spirit, to lead me on level ground.”
Ps 143:4-12 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me; My heart is appalled within me. 5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your doings; I muse on the work of Your hands. 6 I stretch out my hands to You; My soul longs for You, as a parched land. Selah. 7 Answer me quickly, O LORD, my spirit fails; Do not hide Your face from me, Or I will become like those who go down to the pit. 8 Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning; For I trust in You; Teach me the way in which I should walk; For to You I lift up my soul. 9 Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies; I take refuge in You. 10 Teach me to do Your will, For You are my God; Let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground. 11 For the sake of Your name, O LORD, revive me. In Your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble. 12 And in Your lovingkindness, cut off my enemies And destroy all those who afflict my soul, For I am Your servant.
My Prayer:
Your servants need your help and a reviving by your Spirit, O God. Lead us on level ground, O Lord. May we think on you day and night. Teach us to pray deeply, more powerfully and more frequently. May our hearts belong to You, O Lord. We ask for your Presence to bless our day. In the name of Jesus our Savior, Amen.
Pray for Heather & Bob
