Your Word And Your Power



Jesus replied, “Your mistake is that you don’t know the Scriptures, and you don’t know the power of God.

—Matthew 22:29 (NLT)



Heavenly Father,


Give me a burden to know and understand Your Word, that I might find revealed therein Your matchless power.


Help me to understand that my ignorance of what Your Word has to say, to the unique circumstances of my life, leads me into sin and error.

Grant me an insatiable hunger and thirst for Your Word, that my path might be made straight—as You flood my heart with a desire to submit myself to Your amazing plans and purposes for me, as revealed in Your Word.

Help my faith in Your power to be enlarged as You open the treasures of Your Word to me by Your Holy Spirit—as You pull back the dark veil of my ignorance and show me the glorious Truth of Your Word.

Grant that I might personally experience more of Your power at work in me, through me, and all around me—as I seek to deepen my relationship with You and come to know You more personally and intimately.


Give me a burden to know and understand Your Word, that I might find revealed therein Your matchless power.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
