Lord God, You Are My Enquiry Responder

April 4 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on 2Kings 1-4

Key Verse –2Kings 1:6 And they said unto him, There came a man up to meet us, and said unto us, Go, turn again unto the king that sent you, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that thou sendest to enquire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron? therefore thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY ENQUIRY RESPONDER Lord God, You are my enquiry Responder with Your “Thus saith the Lord” Thank You for answering me with Your sure Word As You gird my faith by Your Spirit’s sword… I come to You along Your righteous record. Lord God, You are my enquiry Responder with Your truth so precious Thank You for affirming to me Your mercy that’s so gracious As You hold my reactions in Your peace, making me divinely conscious… I live for you, and by Your guidance, become persistently conscientious. Lord God, You are my enquiry Responder with Your heavenly wisdom Thank You for approving me of my ministry-mantle in Your kingdom As You meet my needs always, not seldom… I look up to You in climbing maturity’s mount along Your granted freedom. Lord God, You are my enquiry Responder with Your life-building reign Thank You for ascertaining to me Your compassion without strain As You discipline my rebellion in Your chastisement’s terrain… I go up to You, departing from wilderness, causing me to drain. Lord God, You are my enquiry Responder with Your call for deliverance Thank You for assuring me Your presence along Your forbearance As You fill my soul through Your faithfulness-appearance… I rise up toward You, along my indignation against my ignorance. Lord God, You are my enquiry Responder with Your continual calling Thank You for asserting to Your purposeful plan-fulfilling As You embrace my heart against fleshly cooling… I lean on You, laying to You my all along Your kind dealing. Lord God, You are my enquiry Responder with Your encouraging drive Thank You for arresting me of my humanistic craving to thrive As You smite my pride so I can humbly strive… I stay in You, believing that Your love for me does not deprive.
