Praying Through: Psalm 32:2

The Psalm

Psalm 32:2 (CSB) How joyful is a person whom the LORD does not charge with iniquity and in whose spirit is no deceit!

The Prayer

My Only Redeemer

I am filled with iniquity, Lord, look at my sins? How can you not count my wickedness against me?

Are you a god that turns his head and ignores evil? Or do you call something a sin not a sin and allow it to run rampant and destroy everything that you alone have created and that you have loved?

My Lord, you did not ignore my sin you did not turn the other way you did not declare evil not evil. No!

You thought of me, laid your affections upon me saw me in my wickedness and deceit and you loved me.

And then you sent your Son, Jesus Christ the Holy One of God who is God to live as I should and to carry his cross and to place my sin upon himself and to attract Your wrath upon himself and saved me from the outermost to himself.

Christ saved me in Your grace Your sovereign Your power alone.

Blessed be your name forever.

Amen.
