Day 085

Father, 

We praise You for being a God who doesn’t discard us with age. Every day that we still have breath in our lungs is a day You have purposed for us to magnify and glorify You on earth. You are intentional about the number of our days and years; no moment is an afterthought of an oversight. We praise You for being at work even in what we perceive to be delays. Thank You for shaping our hearts, acting for our good, and defeating the enemies in our lives, despite our present and future failures.

Have mercy on me, a sinner. We repent of our sins and turn to You and we ask You to make our hearts clean. We confess to partial obedience or delayed obedience⁠—we know this is disobedience to You. We repent of not driving out the sin in our lives that you’ve highlighted repeatedly.  

Please forgive us for ignoring You, for avoiding You, or for disobeying fully or even partially. We know full obedience leads to life abundant and blessing, and most importantly, it leads us to greater intimacy with You. So please grant us that obedience. And as we obey, give us the vigor of Caleb. Give us strength according to our days, that we might actively engage with the things You’ve called us to. 

We surrender our lives to You, Lord—every moment of our day, each decision we make, we yield our will and way to Your perfect will and way. 

We love You too. Amen.
