Day 234

God of the Universe,

You are our Father, and You are sovereign over all the lesser gods—the false gods and pagan gods and demon gods. They are no gods at all and the only power they have is what You allow them to have. They are no threat to You and Your plan. We praise You for Your sovereign power and control even over Your enemies. 

Have mercy on me, a sinner. We turn FROM our sins TO You and ask You to make our hearts clean. Like Moab, our hearts have been entitled and arrogant. We’ve put our hope in strength and wealth. We’ve trusted in our best qualities, hoping they’ll help us advance and get what we want in life. We exalt ourselves against You, God. We fail to thank You for Your gifts to us and we neglect to ask what YOU have for our lives, and instead we just forge ahead with our own plans. So we repent. 

We confess that Your way is perfect and ours is not, and we praise You for inviting us to walk with You in Your way. Thank You for the promise of Your nearness and for the peace that comes from remembering that.

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.
