Day 215

Father, 

You are in the business of changing hearts and moving eyes, and we praise You for it! Thank You that You are attuned to our thoughts and desires, and You know exactly how to catch our attention when we’re ignoring You. We’re so grateful You can shake us awake⁠—it is always to bless us with more of who You are!  

Have mercy on me, a sinner. Whether we are at the beginning of our story, like Manasseh, or closer to the end of our story, like Hezekiah, or some place in between, we have a desperate need for humility. We are most blinded by our pride and our desires, God. We are driven by what we want and where we think happiness is found. We repent of seeking true, lasting fulfillment in anything besides You. Teach us to want better, God. Make our hearts clean.

Like the armies of Judah, would You help us be strong and courageous as we face our enemies today? Whether it’s a physical enemy, a spiritual entity, or even our flesh, You are with us! We are not alone! So as we battle our pride and entitlement and complacency, we can talk to You about! We can repent, we can be renewed! Remind us that the Living God is with us to fight our battles. 

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

We love You too. Amen.
