Devotion for Saturday, May 18, 2019
“Deal with Your servant according to Your lovingkindness and teach me
Your statutes. I am Your servant; give
me understanding, that I may know Your testimonies. It is time for the Lord to act, for they have
broken Your law.” (Psalm 119:125-136)
The world is filled with excuses
and loves to blame. This world claims to
have a plan, but the world’s plans fail time after time. Look to the Lord who will lift you up to be
in His presence. Know that the way of
the Lord is from everlasting and to everlasting. Be guided by what is eternal that You may
walk in the way of life. The Lord will
bring about all things according to His will in His perfect time.
Lord, teach me to rely upon You for all things. Guide me according to Your goodness to see in You the only hope for this or any age. You are God and there is no other. Lead me into the life for which You are preparing me through salvation that I may live at all times in harmony with all of Your decrees. Keep me close to You, Lord, that I would hear Your voice above the noise of this world.
Come, Holy Spirit, and minister to my spirit. Clear the path that I would walk this day in the way of salvation. Lift me up according to the Father’s perfect plan to do what is pleasing in His sight. Let not any hindrance come my way that would cause me to falter; and guide me according to the eternal precepts which have already been spoken. Help me listen to You this day and follow according to Your Word. Amen
