August 8 Heart for God Bible Meditations Based on Isaiah 49-53
Key Verse – Isaiah 49:5 And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my strength.
HEART THAT FINDS STRENGTH IN THE LORD
Our heart finds strength in the Lord against sin-downfall
By His forgiveness of pardon’s call
Always cleansing our soul from wickedness, whether big or small
So that we can stand uprightly tall upon His mercy’s hall.
Our heart finds strength in the Lord against error-backsliding
By His holiness of graciousness’ upholding
Always propping our devotion from defilement’s degrading
So that we can forbear godly scolding.
Our heart finds strength in the Lord against guilt-pressure
By His righteousness of kindness’ measure
Always driving our faith from fears’ enclosure
So that we can pursue toward heavenly treasure.
Our heart finds strength in the Lord against distress-discouragement
By His truth of inspiration’s empowerment
Always protecting our spirit from worldliness’ enticement
So that we can seek His revival fulfillment.
Our heart finds strength in the Lord against slothfulness-unproductiveness
By His love of servanthood’s effectiveness
Always pulling our body from laziness
So that we can labour with diligent earnestness.
Our heart finds strength in the Lord against vanity-torture
By His sufficiency of satisfaction’s gesture
Always settling our emptiness from nothingness’ posture
So that we can pray upon trust-filled venture.
Our heart finds strength in the Lord against anxiety-disposition
By His joy of goodness’ provision
Always sufficing our discontentment-bouts from dissatisfaction
So that we can continue in His constant compassion.
