Teach me, O Lord, the lifestyle prescribed by Your statutes,
Psalm 119:33-37
so that I might observe it continually.
Give me understanding so that I might observe Your law,
and keep it with all my heart.
Guide me in the path of Your commands,
for I delight to walk in it.
Give me a desire for Your rules,
rather than for wealth gained unjustly.
Turn my eyes away from what is worthless!
Revive me with Your word!
Dear Heavenly Father, please teach me how I should live. Correct my flawed vision, so I will know what to give my heart to. Your law brings great joy. Please remind me that Your way is worth more than gaining wealth the wrong way.
Confirm to your servant Your promise,
Psalm 119:38-40
which You made to the one who honors You.
Take away the insults that I dread!
Indeed, your regulations are good.
Look, I long for Your precepts.
Revive me with Your deliverance!
Show me how Your promise is fulfilled for the one who honors You. Help me through insults; I long for the goodness of Your way. Please give me life through Your law.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
