Lord, hear my prayer:

“Lord, all my desire is before You.” Psalm 38:9

“Teach me Your way, O LORD; I will walk in Your truth; unite my heart to fear Your name.” Psalm 86:11

Encouraged by Your blessed word of promise, O Lord, that before men call, You will answer, and while they are yet speaking, You will hear (Isaiah 65:24), I now draw near to You and present my supplication before You.

  • Teach me, by Your word and Spirit, the things of my everlasting peace;
  • Let my soul be cast in the mold of the gospel and let me be obedient to Your will in all things.
  • Manifest Yourself unto me, as You do not to the world;
  • Show me my inward corruptions and let me see into the depth of iniquity that is in my heart;
  • Grant me that fear of the Lord which is the beginning of wisdom;
  • Incline my heart unto Your testimonies
  • Lead me into all truth;
  • Help me to learn that he that believes will not make haste; 
  • Restrain the impetuosity of my natural temper, that I may do all things deliberately, as becomes one that fears always, that is ever looking unto You for direction.
  • Preserve me calm in my spirit, gentle in my commands, and watchful that I speak not unadvisedly with my lips;
  • Moderate in my purposes, yielding in my temper, and at the same time steadfast in my principles.
  • Grant me Your protection, and may Your blessing rest upon me.

I pray that I walk honorably through the wilderness and pass triumphantly over Jordan into Canaan. Amen.
