“Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right and steadfast spirit within me.”
Psalm 51:10 (AMP)
Praise be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it!
This heartfelt prayer was spoken by King David after he realized he had sinned against God. Admitting our sins before God is a major and humbling step toward obtaining His forgiveness and mercy.
Like David, every believer must learn to continually pray this prayer, seeking God’s cleansing and renewal. At times, we may backslide or drift from His presence without even realizing it , but the Holy Spirit calls us back into alignment.
We must also be careful not to live in deliberate sin, thinking that grace gives us permission to do wrong. Grace is not a license to sin; it is the power to overcome sin.
Let us therefore daily invite the Holy Spirit to purify our hearts, renew our spirits, and make us steadfast in faith and obedience.
Lord Jesus Christ, we come before You today with humble hearts.Forgive us of every sin that separates us from Your presence.Create in us a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within us in Jesus name.
Keep us in constant tune with Your Holy Spirit.
