In Romans chapter 1, the Apostle Paul tells us that the Father speaks through his creation, and by observing his creation we can learn about his nature. I’m sure Paul’s theology was shaped by Old Testament passages like this. We need to slow down, open our eyes and allow God to speak to us through His creation. This prayer, crafted from Psalms 19, requests this very thing. Pray this prayer, then pray it in your own words. Then share it with your spiritually hungry friends.
Prayer
Father, creation and Your word give me revelation into who You are! Speak to my heart through Your revelation. I don’t want to miss an iota. Help me see everything You’re plainly showing humanity. Highlight to me Your secrets hidden within Your revelation. Don’t just show me; correct me! Point out the errors that steal my effectiveness. Reveal to me the secret sins that I engage in unaware. In regard to willful sins bring me to fruitful repentance. Break every bond of wickedness within me, remove from me anything that would cause me to lose faith in Jesus. May Your word and every form of revelation churn within my chest powerfully! I meditate on Your living word until it masters me. Help me assimilate Your revelation until every action is pleasing to You and every thought is congruent with Yours. I pray this in the name of Jesus, the living word.
Psalms 19:1-14
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun. It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course. It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes. The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever. The decrees of the Lord are firm, and all of them are righteous. They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the honeycomb. By them your servant is warned; in keeping them there is great reward. But who can discern their own errors? Forgive my hidden faults. Keep your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless, innocent of great transgression. May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.
