21 Day Fast Day 16
As we continue this season of fasting and prayer let’s seek God with all our hearts.
I love this prayer of David in psalm 63:
“O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips, when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night; for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.”
Psalm 63:1-8 ESV
As we come hungry and empty to the Lord today let’s look upon him and behold his POWER and GLORY! Let’s allow his love that is better than life to sustain us. Let’s eat the rich food of his presence and his word. As we are filled with his love, praise and joy will flow from deep within us. Let’s remember our God today, as David says, and meditate on who he is. As our souls cling to the Lord like David, the comfort and peace of being held in his hand will flood our hearts.
Turn this psalm into your prayer today. Draw close and talk to Jesus.
