I Cry Out

Psalm 57: 2, 3b

I cry out to God Most High (El Elyon), to God Who will fulfill His purpose for me ... My God will send forth His unfailing love and faithfulness.

O my Father, I pray for Your leading and guidance this coming week. Please strengthen me to put a guard on my mouth. Let my words be a healing balm, not a sharp sword. Give me Your thoughts and attitudes, Father, not my own.

May your will be accomplished in and through me this coming week, may Your plans succeed, not mine. Teach me to stay in Your presence, moment by moment; in Your strength, discernment, words, attitudes, thoughts, Your Truth. 

Teach me integrity, that there be no discrepancy between my words and my actions, and what clearly stands before me in reality.

And may everything that transpires this coming week bring glory and honor to You, my God and my Lord.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
