1 Chronicles 22:19
Now devote your heart
and soul to seeking the LORD your God. Begin to build the sanctuary of
the LORD God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD
and the sacred articles belonging to God into the temple that will be
built for the Name of the LORD.
Father in Heaven,
Thank You for Your
inexhaustible love and enduring faithfulness. Because You love me beyond
the limits of my imagination, I'm compelled to live a life of love,
personally and passionately devoted to You.
Please help me
develop a vibrant, intimate relationship with You through continual
Bible study and persistent prayer. Inspire me to build a sacred place in
my heart to hide Your valuable commands and priceless promises. In this
sanctuary, store the treasures of Your heart so that I'll instinctively
know what's most important to You.
Full of Your riches,
I'll worship You with adoring faith by pouring out my life completely
for You. With one heart, we'll dance together harmoniously. Motivated by
overpowering love, I'll follow Your lead, deliberately laying down my
life for others. The closer I get to You, the easier it will be to
identify the people and purposes that matter to You. Living in pure,
uninterrupted devotion to You, my spontaneous actions and positive
attitudes will be a pleasant love offering attracting others to Your
divine goodness.
Please search the
temple of my heart and show me anything that I love more than You. By
Your power and grace, I'll deliberately remove those obstacles from my
life in order to be entirely dedicated to You. More than anything else
in the world, I desire to worship You ceaselessly in the temple of my
heart where Your precious treasure abounds because of my unwavering
commitment to Jesus, Your Son. Amen.
A lofty life-long
goal is to devote your heart and soul to seeking the Lord. As you do, He
will hide His treasure in your heart, and you'll naturally live a life
of love, attracting others to His divine goodness.
Because
of His inexhaustible love and enduring faithfulness are you willing to
pour out your life for Him? Identify those things in your life that
prevent you from just being with Him. Then, determine to give Him the
first fruit of Your time each time for Bible study and prayer.
