Key Verse – Isaiah 30:18 And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY GRACIOUS JUDGE Lord God, You are my gracious Judge of mercy despite my sinfulness Thank You for pardoning my confessed rebelliousness… I admit my unprofitability and fruitlessness Please help me by Your strength’s mightiness. Lord God, You are my gracious Judge of goodness despite my iniquity Thank You for forgiving my expressed unbelief-caused anxiety… I admit my doubt and uncertainty Please answer me by Your truth’s authority. Lord God, You are my gracious Judge of holiness despite my transgression Thank You for correcting my error midst perversion… I admit my weakness and confusion Please uphold me by Your pity’s compassion. Lord God, You are my gracious Judge of peace despite my worldly entanglement Thank You for rebuking my lack of commitment… I admit my blindness and vision-ailment Please heal me by Your teaching’s enlightenment. Lord God, You are my gracious Judge of hope despite my failure Thank You for checking my motives against kindness’ gesture… I admit my negligence and indolence toward heavenly venture Please guard me by Your counsel from carnality’s pleasure. Lord God, You are my gracious Judge of righteousness despite my backsliding Thank You for reproving my heart from hiding… I admit my treachery and foolishness with deceit’s loading Please protect me by Your testimony’s shielding. Lord God, You are my gracious Judge of faithfulness despite my hypocrisy Thank You for guiding my steps along Your Scriptures’ policy… I admit my ignorance and inconsistency Please strengthen me by Your love’s persistency.
