Dear Heavenly Father,
As the Psalmist declares, “Each morning I will sing with joy about you unfailing love and power, for you alone are my refuge, a place of safety in all my distress.” Lord it is written in Hebrews 4:12 “For the Word of God is alive and active. It is sharper than any double-edged sword cutting between soul and spirit; joint and marrow, exposing our inner most thought and desires.” Lord, we give you permission to search us and know our hearts. Test us and know our anxious thoughts; point out anything in us that is offensive and lead us down the path of everlasting life. It feels good to be known by you, Abba. Thank you for being with us always. You’ve promised in your Word that if we ask, it shall be given. As we approach your throne of grace and mercy, we ask in Jesus Christ name that you create in us a clean heart. Transform us by the renewing of our minds so that we can be open vessels for you to work through. Father, your will is good, far pleasing, and perfect. We ask and live according to these things in Jesus name, Amen.
