Lord God, You Are My Sanctifier

February 28 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on Joshua 7-9 Key Verse – Joshua 7:13 Up, sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow: for thus saith the LORD God of Israel, There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from among you.. LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY SANCTIFIER Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against accursed trespass and unholiness Thank You for forgiving my confessed conscience-smiting filthiness As I repent from neglecting Your warning for unrighteousness… Deliver me from corruption-destructiveness. Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against backsliding Thank You for correcting my wayward environ-treading As I learn from Your Word, gaining biblical understanding… Drive me toward prayer altar-building. Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against sin-spoilage Thank You for purging my self-inflicted trouble-bondage As I come to You for freedom-flight, surpassing temptation-frontage… Draw me away from covetousness-rampage. Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against pursuit for vanity Thank You for hindering my ascent to secularism-liberty As I avoid craving for materialistic security… Direct me to Your will of spirituality by Your reigning authority. Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against pride’s destruction Thank You for guarding my heart from arrogance-caused isolation As I participate in the fulfillment of Your great commission… Deter me along paths of haughtiness’ curse-abomination. Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against false religion’s insight Thank You for admonishing me to conquer pull of humanistic flight As I journey upward stewardship-servanthood height… Deal with me according to Your counsel delight. Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against murmuring’s grievance Thank You for reminding my oath of vow-perseverance As I overcome tendency to succumb toward troubles’ disturbance… Discipline me from engaging in carnal encumbrance.

For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.” Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God, because “the righteous will live by faith.” Galatians 3:10?-?11 NIV , what a great vessel you are for your Lord,. Living by faith (spirit)
