I give thanks to You, My Lord, for You are good to me and Your love for me endures forever. In my greatest times of need, You have been there for me. Because You walk with me each day, I am no longer afraid. When I struggle, You are there to help me get passed it. I will always look to You for my strength in order to triumph over difficulties and evil. I know it is better to take refuge in You than trust in men. Though evil stalks me throughout my day, I know that You will protect me and keep them away. When I falter and I am about to fall, it is Your support that helps me stand. I know You are faithful and it is Your strong, right arm that sustains me. In Your love, I feel alive and my heart finds rest. Through Your mercy, the gates of Heaven have been opened to me and I will enter them with thanksgiving. I will always try to remember that the pathway to Heaven is narrow and the road to Hell is wide. Help me stay on the straight and narrow path.
I know that Your protective covering follows me wherever I go so long as I remained blameless and walk according to Your commands. As I keep Your statutes and seek Your will, Your mercy and grace will abound toward me. You have made Your precepts and expectations clear to me so that I can fully comply with them. I pledge, with all my heart, to be steadfast in obeying Your decrees. As a result, I will never be put to shame nor will my enemies triumph over me. I will strive to fill my mind with Your Word and maintain an upright attitude so I can keep our closeness intact. I often wonder “how can I keep my ways pure and free from sin?” I know it is by living in accordance with Your Word … by not letting my heart stray from Your commands … and, by allowing the Holy Spirit to guide my life. I am happiest when I am living in accordance with Your statutes and meditating on Your Word … it is then, that I rejoice in the riches I find in them. I promise to not to stray from Your watchful eyes nor neglect Your Word.
I bless Your name, O King of Glory. For as I do good, I know I will be rewarded with Your caring love. As I seek the wonders of Your Word, I will come to recognize the security and wisdom in them. My soul is consumed with seeking after You and being able to feel Your presence in my life. I know You rebuke the arrogant, so I remain humble in order to retain Your blessing. I take consolation in the fact that Your words are my counselors, seeking to guide me in all that I do. Though I am knocked off my feet, I know You will restore me in accordance with Your purpose for my life. When I am distressed or discouraged, I will recount the ways You’ve been faithful to me. When I am weary and sorrowful, I will be strengthened by Your words of encouragement. I have chosen the path You have laid out for me. I am forever joyful because my security is in You. And it’s in Jesus’ name I pray. Amen!!
