Along the Path of Your Commands

 


 

Give me understanding and I will obey your instructions;
    I will put them into practice with all my heart.
Make me walk along the path of your commands,
    for that is where my happiness is found.

 —Psalm 119:34-35 (NLT)

 







 

 

Heavenly Father,


May I always seek to understand Your Word—so that I will be able to obey all Your instructions. Help me to put them into practice and experience the happiness that belongs to those who walk along the paths of Your commands.

 

With Your Spirit as my teacher, open the richness of Your Word to my spirit and help me to understand everything that You want me to know—that I might fully accomplish those things that You have planned for me to do.

 

Lead me to that place of absolute obedience to You—as You bend my will along the path of Your commands—for my own good, to protect me, to provide for me, and to keep me in Your perfect peace.

 

And help me find those places of great blessing, joy, and happiness—by following all Your instructions and trusting in Your great love for me—so I can discover that the very best You have for me is found within my life in Christ.


May I always seek to understand Your Word—so that I will be able to obey all Your instructions. Help me to put them into practice and experience the happiness that belongs to those who walk along the paths of Your commands.

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Life As A Continual Feast Of Blessing



For the despondent, every day brings trouble;
    for the happy heart, life is a continual feast.



—Proverbs 15:15 (NLT)



Good and Generous God,



Let all my thoughts be filled with hope, as I give thanks for the continual feast of blessings that You have prepared for me to enjoy—so that I can keep a happy-hearted attitude, no matter what comes my way.



I know that if I never miss an opportunity to dwell on every bad thing that happens—my attitude will become poisoned, my days will be filled with worry and trouble, and my hope will be lost to the lies the enemy has deceived me into accepting as truth.



I know that if I never miss an opportunity to dwell on every good thing with which You have so abundantly blessed me—my attitude will be nourished, my days will be filled with joy and happiness, and my hope will grow, as You help me to live in the truth of Your love.



Let me always choose wisely, those things that I allow to continue in my thoughts and influence my beliefs—so that I might fully experience the abundant life that You have invited me to live out each and every day.



Let all my thoughts be filled with hope, as I give thanks for the continual feast of blessings that You have prepared for me to enjoy—so that I can keep a happy-hearted attitude, no matter what comes my way.



In the name of Jesus, Amen.
