Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.—Psalm 119:11 (NKJV)
Heavenly Father,
Help me to store up more and more of Your Word in my heart, so it can cleanse me and keep me from sinning against You—as it continuously washes over my soul.
Thank You that Your Word answers everything that I encounter on my earthly journey—so that I never have to feel lost—and takes me down the path of abundant and everlasting life in Christ, both now and forevermore.
Help me truly know Your Word. Let it be so much more than simply lines that I recall having read. Help me to grasp the depth of meaning contained in every verse—so that, with Your Spirit as my teacher, I can receive all the life-giving Truth that each word offers me.
Don’t let my hunger for Your Word ever wain, but let me always seek to hide it—so as not to lose the great treasure that it is—within the deepest parts of my heart. And strengthen me as I commit to meditate daily on Your Word and apply each truth that I find there to my life—in obedience to all Your instruction.
Help me to store up more and more of Your Word in my heart, so it can cleanse me and keep me from sinning against You—as it continuously washes over my soul.
In the name of Jesus, Amen.
