Wonders In Every Heartbeat


O Lord my God, you have performed many wonders for us.
    Your plans for us are too numerous to list.
    You have no equal.
If I tried to recite all your wonderful deeds,
    I would never come to the end of them.

--Psalm 40:5 (NLT)



O Lord my God,


I stand amazed at just how good You have been to me.

May my "looking back at my past" only be in remembrance of all the wondrous things that You have done for me, in celebration of Your faithfulness and love.

When I think of how involved You are in even the smallest of details of my life, I am overwhelmed…I cannot take it in. There is not one thing that happens to me that You don’t see—not one thing that happens that You don't already have  a plan to bring good from it for me!  To number Your plans would be impossible.

Help me to see more clearly the wonders that You perform out of intimate love for me, in every heartbeat of every day.  Remind me of those wonders that You have performed, especially in those times when the strength of my faith is fading.

There is truly none like You, Lord.  I could tell of Your wonderful deeds forever, and never reach the end of the telling. Still, prompt me to tell of them in order to bring glory, honor and praise to You.

I stand amazed at just how good You have been to me.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

The Light Of Your Presence


Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you,
    who walk in the light of your presence, Lord.
They rejoice in your name all day long;
    they celebrate your righteousness.

--Psalm 89:15-16 (NIV)


Righteous and Faithful God,


I want to be a man who walks in the light of Your presence all the day long, joyfully celebrating Your righteousness.

Through Your Holy Spirit, teach me to praise You at all times, for I know that I cannot even praise You without a touch from the Spirit of God.

Come with me today, so that my path will be illuminated by Your presence and keep me from stepping into the traps of the enemy.

Stay with me as You are so faithful to do, but remind me that You are here with me, so I don’t lose my focus and wander off of the path of blessing You have prepared for me to take today.

Thank You, that because of Your righteousness and faithfulness, You are worthy to receive all of my praise and honor.

I want to be a man who walks in the light of Your presence all the day long, joyfully celebrating Your righteousness.

In the name of Jesus, Amen
