I have not departed from the commands of His lips;
I have treasured the words of His mouth
More than my daily bread.
Job 23:12
~ God of Grace ~
.
“May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.” Please help me to not depart from Your commands. Please help me to treasure the words of Your mouth more than anything else in my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Prayer from Psalm 19:14 and based on Job 23:12
For Rebecca. The verse you gave me (Psalm 19:14) sits in my kitchen window as a “guard over my mouth.”
“Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.” That is why if I don’t guard my heart each day my lips speak with unawareness of what is within me and what is around me. When my lips begin with praise I do better. Thank you, Sara. Love, dad
Thanks for the post Sara, this is really encouraging!
Thank you so much – you’re glorifying God by bringing out jewels in the word that are easy to miss – Thank you!
