Your Word Hidden in My Heart

 


Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.

 

—Psalm 119:11 (NKJV)

 





Heavenly Father,

 

Help me to hide Your Word in my heart, so I might not sin against You. Let it cleanse me as it continuously washes over my soul.

 

Thank You that Your Word answers everything that I encounter on my earthly journey and takes me down the path of abundant and everlasting life in Christ, both in the here and 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 may I always hide it—as I would any great treasure—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.

 

Help me to hide Your Word in my heart, so I might not sin against You. Let it cleanse me as it continuously washes over my soul.

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
