Psalm 119:1-8

Emphasis                 Walking in Your paths, Your law, Lord

Today’s Prayer

Lord, when we think of “Walking in Your paths, in Your Law” (Psalm 119:3) we are reminded of “abiding” in You. And so Father, we abide in You, we continue in You, we walk in Your laws because we know that when we see You, we will be confident and unashamed (1 John 2:28). Lord, the writers of scripture wrote, so that we would not sin, but we praise You Father, that when we do sin, we have an advocate with You, Your Son. He is the One who, out of Your love for us, gave up His own life, not only for us but for the entire world (1 John 2:1). Lord, that is love, Father, that is unconditional love, that He died even for those who will not turn to Him. Forgive us, as a nation, and as Your church, for not loving unconditionally, and show us Lord, how to love like that, for Your word tells us that love is the fulfillment of the law (Romans 13:10).
