Adoration
Read Psalm 45 & Pray
O Majesty King, for the cause of truth, meekness, and righteousness (v4). You have given yourself to us. Your throne shall last forever with a sceptre of righteousness (v6). God has blessed and anointed You with oil of gladness (v7).
Oh God, be my King, my handsome bridegroom, that I may live well. Guide my heart to be entirely loyal to Your deeds and teachings. Let Your splendour and majesty warm my heart, and I will be faithful to You by living a godly life and praising Your name. I will leave all earthly things and embrace those from above (Gal. 5:22-23; Col. 3:12-13; Eph. 4:1-3).
Oh God, as your daughter, let me incline my ears to Your beautiful voice, Your Word and let it speak to my heart by the Holy Spirit.
Confession
“But, O how I mounr my sin, ingratitude, vileness, the days that add to my guilt, the scenes that witness my offending tongue. all things in heaven, earth, around, within, without, condemne me- Your righteousness law, Your holy Word, my sin-soiled conscience, my private and public life, my neighbours, myself. All write dark think against me. I deny them not, frame no excuse, but confess, “Father, I have sinner.”~ Exerpt from Valley of Vision Puritain Prayer
Request
“There is a fundamental principle of the Chrisitian life that I call the principle of dependent responsibility; that is, we are responsible before God to obey His Word, to put to death the sins in our lives both the so-called acceptable sins and the obviously not acceptable ones. At the same time, we do not have the ability within ourselves to carry out this responsibility. We are in fact totally dependent upon the enabling power of the Holy Spirit. In this sense, we are both responsible and dependent.” ~ Exerpt from Respecatlbe Sins by Jerry Bridges
Oh Jesus, my Savior, teach me how to cling to Your cross and know without doubt that You have nailed all my sins with You, sheltering me from the wrath of God. Let me seek Your word with joy and zeal. Teach me to be faithful.
What I learned about God:
- Royal wedding: Christ & His bride
- Divine love
- Kingship
- Prophesy
- Marriage
- Worship
- Beautiful Savior
- Everlasting God
- Handsome God
- Grace and Majestic
- Victorious God
I am grateful that God seeks us in our purity, grace, truth, humility, justice, and loyalty to Him.
Let’s Go Pray!
