Written On My Heart



I take joy in doing your will, my God,
    for your instructions are written on my heart.

—Psalm 40:8 (NLT)


Father God,


Let me find my only joy in doing Your will.


Help me to hunger and thirst for Your will to be revealed to me, as I prayerfully search the pages of Your Word and as I purposefully quiet my mind, so I can listen for Your Spirit to speak to my heart.

May my earnest seeking after Your will cause Your instructions to be written within my heart—so that that which is my duty to do, will truly become my delight to do.

Help me to walk in the blessings of joy that come when, in heartfelt obedience to Your will, I follow Your instructions—instructions You have given to me for my benefit.


Let me find my only joy in doing Your will.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
