Oh To Be Wise Meditations

Lord, you have told me so many times that all sin is devoted to destruction. Sin is a curse that leads to death, and if it were not for grace in my life I would be swallowed up in it. You said not to take any spoils from the sin you saved me from. I was to run away from it and not look back to my past. But I kept secretly greedy desires in my heart and dug them deep to hide it from you. I brought destruction and trouble upon myself. And not just on me but upon my friends and family. The sins that I have stacked up and hidden in the tent of my heart are judged by the word of God. I was suppose to keep the word of God hidden in my heart. To be a treasure that I open into my life. But I dug it deep and put wordly lusts on top of it. Oh Jesus I do not want to insult your holiness, you have the right as my Lord and Saviour to judge me as you see fit. Please forgive me of all my sins, come into the tent of my heart and clean house! One by one please remove every evil thing and spirit that comes with it. Turn your fierce anger away from me and give me the peace of your Presence. Christ in me is the hope of glory! I dare not go another day with sin in my heart. Another day with living in so much sin that it affects others around me whom I love. I want to live in your mercy and grace. When I come face to face with the living word, let my temple be clean with no evil thing harboured in my heart. I fear if not, I will be stoned in heart to death. A judgment so severe like being left behind in the valley of the shadow of death. In your presence is fullness of joy, make your home in me. Break all my idols and the sins I hold tightly in secret. I need your strength to live in spirit and in truth. Meditate Joshua Chapter 7
