They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?” Luke 24:32 (NIV)

Set My Heart On Fire

Open up your word to me. Show me what you want me to see. Walk with me. Talk with me. Stay with me. Use your word to mold and shape my life. Help me to hear your voice. Help me to know your thoughts. Help me to walk in your ways. Set my heart on fire by your word. I will follow you.

Help me to understand what I do not know or cannot see. Give me insight. Give me knowledge. Give me wisdom and understanding from out of your word. Guard and guide my life according to your word. I’m here. I’m waiting. I’m listening. I will do all that you ask of me. Set my heart on fire by your word. I will obey you.

Open my eyes to see. Open my ears to hear. You have my full attention. You have all of me. There is nothing I would rather do than live my life for you. There is no place I would rather be than right here with you. Use me according to your purposes and plans. Set my heart on fire by your word. I will serve you.

Draw near to me as I draw near to you. This special time and secret place is ours together. The door is closed. The volume is down. The crowds are gone. I am still. I am waiting. I am attentive. Quiet me so I can listen. Speak to me so I can hear. Set my heart on fire by your word. I will hear you.

My heart aches. My body cries out. I hunger and thirst for you. I want you in my heart. I want you in my mind. I want you in my life. I am fully devoted to you. I love you with all my heart and mind and soul. Set my heart on fire by your word. I am all yours.

Will you do what I ask? Will you open your word to me? Will you speak to me so that I can  hear? Will you help me to follow and obey? Will you guard and guide my life by your word? Will you set my heart on fire for you? Yes, I will do all that you have asked of me. Yes, I will do far beyond even what you could have asked for or imagined. Follow me. Yes Lord, I will.

Lord, thank you for your word. You are teaching and training me with your word. You are guiding and guarding my life with your word. Your word is changing my heart and transforming my mind. Your word has put a fire in my heart to love, follow and serve you.  Amen

Discipleship Devotional Study Guide – Promises – Day 116 – Luke 24:32 – Hearts Burning Within Us – Growing As Disciples

They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?” Luke 24:32 (NIV)  

Open The Scriptures

Would you like me to open the Scriptures for you? Would you like my word to burn hotly in you? Would you like my word to change your heart? Would you like my word to transform your mind? Would you like my word to guard and guide the course of your life? Would you like my word to make you able to resist temptation and stand against evil? Yes, I would like your word to do all those things in me. But there is something I want your word to do in me as well. What is that? I want your word to help me to come to know you intimately. I want your word to cause my heart to burn passionately for you. I want to be fully devoted to you. I want to love you with all my heart and mind and soul and strength.  These are also very good desires within you. What else would you like my word to do for you? I want to live a life of faith with you. I want to know where you are guiding me so I can go boldly do what you are asking of me. I no longer want to live a timid life of wondering where you want me to go or what you want me to do. Those are also very good desires within you. I want all these very same things for you.

What must you do if you want my word do all these things in you? That seems obvious to me. How so? If I want your word to do these things, I must meet with you in my word. That is obvious, isn’t it? Yes, it is. So, when will you meet with me in my word? I will meet with you in your word every day. Why is that? There is not a day that I do not need to hear from you. There is not a day that I don’t need your word to do its work in me. How will you be sure to meet daily with me in my word? I will set a time and place to meet with you. Why is that important? Life is busy. Life is demanding. Life is distracting. If I don’t make meeting daily with you in your word the priority of my life, it will never happen. Is this the voice of your experience? Yes, it is. So, you can expect me to draw near to you daily, in your word, so you can do your work in me. That will be very good. 

Lord, that is my hope. That is my desire. That is my request. That is my prayer. Open the Scriptures to me. Have your word burn hotly in me. Use your word to change my heart. Use your word to transform my mind. Use your word to guard and guide my life. Amen

Key Question… How has the Lord been opening the Scriptures for you so you can understand them?

Living It Out… Allow the Lord to open the Scriptures to you.

Seeing It Happen… Have faith that the Lord will open the Scriptures to you.

Get Ready To Share… Share with another person or your small group how the Lord is opening the Scriptures to you.

Prayer To Bless Others… May you allow the Lord to open the Scriptures for you.
