Discipleship Devotional Study Guide – Becoming Like Christ – Day 87 – Psalm 119:25-32- Set My Heart Free – Growing As Disciples

I am laid low in the dust; preserve my life according to your word. I recounted my ways and you answered me; teach me your decrees. Let me understand the teaching of your precepts; then I will meditate on your wonders. My soul is weary with sorrow; strengthen me according to your word. Keep me from deceitful ways; be gracious to me through your law. I have chosen the way of truth; I have set my heart on your laws. I hold fast to your statutes, O LORD; do not let me be put to shame. I run in the path of your commands, for you have set my heart free. Psalm 119:25-32 (NIV)

Your Word

What do you want my word to do in you? I want you to use your word to accomplish your purposes and fulfill your plans in my life. I want what you want. Yes, I know that you want what I want. I am also sure that you want me to accomplish my purposes and plans for your life. But I did ask you what you want my word to do in your life. Try to answer that question. I want your word to change my heart and transform my mind. I want your word to help me to know and do your will. I want your word to guard my life. I want your word to revive, refresh and restore me. I want your word to lift me up and encourage me. I want your word to guide the entire course of my life. I want your word to fill me with joy. I want your word to overflow my life with thanks and praise to you. I want your word to help me to come to know you. I want your word to help me to think your thoughts, speak your word and do your deeds. I want your word to help me to live and walk in an intimate relationship with you. I want your word to help me to hear your voice speaking to me. I want your word to help me to know that I am living my life with and for you. I want your word to help me to bear fruit for your kingdom and bring glory to your name. Most of all, I want your word to give me the most passionate desire to love, follow and serve you. Then as you are using your word to do all these things in, for and through me, I want you to make me to be like you. I want people to be drawn to you because they see your life being lived out, in and though me. These are the things I want your word to do in me. This is my prayer. This is what I am asking of you. I will hear and answer your prayer. Thank you, Lord. 

Lord, your word is sweet to me. You preserve and protect my life with your word. Your word has lifted me out of discouragement, weariness and sorrow. Your word has been guiding the course of my life. Thank you for using your word to set my heart free. Amen

Discipleship Devotional Study Guide – Promises – Day 180 – Psalm 119:25-32 – Revive Me – Growing As Disciples

I lie in the dust; revive me by your word.  I told you my plans, and you answered. Now teach me your decrees.  Help me understand the meaning of your commandments, and I will meditate on your wonderful deeds.  I weep with sorrow; encourage me by your word.  Keep me from lying to myself; give me the privilege of knowing your instructions. I have chosen to be faithful; I have determined to live by your regulations.  I cling to your laws. LORD, don’t let me be put to shame!  I will pursue your commands, for you expand my understanding. Psalm 119:25-32 (NLT)

Perspective 

I can see that you are discouraged. I notice that you are depressed. It is that obvious? Yes, it is that obvious. It is written all over your face. Not, that I would need to see it written on your face to see and take notice of your thoughts and feelings. I know your thoughts and feelings before you think and feel them. I have no doubt about that. It is time to change your perspective. It is time for you to think new and different thoughts. How can I think new and different thoughts? That is a good question. Meditate on my word. Take my word deep into your heart and mind. Take a firm hold of my word. My word will change your perspective. How will your word change my perspective? My word will keep the truth ever before you. My word will prevent you from thinking or speaking or acting on what is untrue. My word will remind you that I love and care for you. My word will help you to know that I am with you to help you. You are not all alone. You have not been forsaken. Keep in mind that in this life you are in a battle. The battle is over your heart and mind. The devil and all His evil would like to use what is untrue to steal and kill and destroy the life I have for you to live. Don’t let him. Allow my word to guard your heart and protect your mind. Let my word revive and refresh and restore your soul. Let my word change your perspective and replace your sorrow with joy. That I will do. I will meditate on your word. I will take your word deep within my heart and mind. I will believe what is true. I will live the joy filled life that you have called me to live. That is very good. Right now, I know that you are reviving and refreshing and restoring my soul. Yes, I am. Thank you, Lord. 

Lord, thank you for your word. Revive my soul with your word. Help me to better understand your word. Use your word to change my outlook so I will have joy instead of sorrow. Guard my mind with your word so I will not think or speak or act on what is untrue. Amen
