Praying Through: Psalm 119:97-104
The Psalm
Psalm 119:97–104 (CSB)
97 How I love your instruction! It is my meditation all day long.98 Your command makes me wiser than my enemies, for it is always with me.
99 I have more insight than all my teachers because your decrees are my meditation.
100 I understand more than the elders because I obey your precepts.
101 I have kept my feet from every evil path to follow your word.
102 I have not turned from your judgments, for you yourself have instructed me.
103 How sweet your word is to my taste— sweeter than honey in my mouth.
104 I gain understanding from your precepts; therefore I hate every false way.
The Prayer
My Living Word
May I never take for granted
- the way you have opened my eyes
- opened my ears
- unmute my tongue
- renewed my mind
- gave me a new heart
- given me new desires
- your Spirit dwelling in me
- Christ in me
- your home in me
- so that I can now
- understand
- and believe
- your Living Word.
Amen.
