July 17 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on Isaiah 51-55
Key Verse – Isaiah 51:1 Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the LORD: look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged.
LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY RIGHTEOUSNESS’ HEWER
Lord God, You are my righteousness’ Hewer
along Your blessing
Thank You for comforting me with Your salvation bracing
Surely awakening me from sin-caused oppressing
To overcome reproaches of reviling and cursing.
Lord God, You are my righteousness’ Hewer
along Your truth’s foundation
Thank You for freeing me from captivity’s destruction
Surely alerting me against iniquities’ affliction
To conquer fainting caused by fear-oppression.
Lord God, You are my righteousness’ Hewer
along Your holiness
Thank You for ruling over me with Your loving kindness
Surely assuring me Your sanctification for my sublime joyousness
To fight uncleanness midst filthy worldliness.
Lord God, You are my righteousness’ Hewer
along Your revelation so wondrous
Thank You for making me divinely desirous
Surely admonishing me to be heavenly prosperous
To vanquish cravings against being carnally adventurous.
Lord God, You are my righteousness’ Hewer
along Your strengthening
Thank You for propping me of my faith that’s weakening
Surely alleviating me with Your mercy for my spiritual winning
To prevail over trials causing grievous straining.
Lord God, You are my righteousness’ Hewer
along Your everlasting care
Thank You for keeping me in Your covenant’s welfare
Surely affirming to me Your love I must share
To remain calm against terrors of unpleasant scare.
Lord God, You are my righteousness’ Hewer
along Your delight
Thank You for commanding me to seek Your might
Surely attending to me with Your grace for service might
To smite futility of pride’s blight.
