September 23 Prayer

‘Every word, every promise from our faithful God is pure and proves to be true.
He is a wraparound shield of protection for all his lovers who run to hide in him.
Never add to his words, or try to second guess them or he will show up your lies.’
Pr.30:5-6
God’s word is true and will last forever.
All things fade away, the grass, the flowers, everything is momentary in this life.Is.40
But God is unchanging,that we can stand on. ‘With God in our hearts nothing is lacking. God is enough,’Teresa of Avila writes.‘Be patient with God in your heart’,
He is working his pure word in you. When we run to him for refuge we are filled again with truth, the truth of who we really are covered in his shield of grace.
Every lie and false narrative we have lived under will be brought to light when we come to him.
Let him fill you with his true and pure word this day as we pray and fix your eyes and thoughts, meditating on that which is true, noble, reputable, authentic, gracious,
the best and not the worst, the beautiful and not the ugly, things to praise and not things to curse.
Do this and the God, who makes all things work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies. Ph.4:8-9Msg

‘Beautiful and true God, we breathe in your pure word into the depths of our being.
Let us know your holiness within us, so that every lie that we hold unto about ourselves will be dispelled. With every exhale we let go of these falsities and take in your word that stands forever true in us.
Fill us up with more of the knowledge of the Holy One,
so we may be able to overflow with truth that only comes from you and not the world.
Thank you that you are enough for today.
Give us courage to turn away from all things that are false in our world.
Praise be to the beautiful and true One
Your word or promise stands forever.

Amen
