My God, Thank You For Performing Your Oath Unto Me
July 29 Scripture Meditations Based on Jeremiah 11-15
Key Verse – Jeremiah 11:5 That I may perform the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day. Then answered I, and said, So be it, O LORD.
MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR PERFORMING YOUR OATH UNTO ME
Thank You for performing Your oath unto me with Your grace
Letting me see Your goodness along Your kindness’ rays
Amidst busy days weakening faith-walking pace…
Oh, how I honour You, giving my praise of worshipful ways.
Thank You for performing Your oath unto me with Your holiness
Letting me fear Your wrath over my unrighteousness
Amidst vain compromises of worldly worthlessness…
Oh, how I hide in You, repenting from my shameful sinfulness.
Thank You for performing Your oath unto me with Your provision
Letting me enjoy Your bounty full of satisfaction
Amidst grievous complaints along scarcity’s vexation…
Oh, how I trust You, confessing my discontented reaction.
Thank You for performing Your oath unto me with Your guidance
Letting me obey Your direction toward truth-assurance
Amidst chaotic situations because of confusing allegiance…
Oh, how I follow You, subduing my skeptical arrogance.
Thank You for performing Your oath unto me with Your mercy
Letting me rely on Your ready, available clemency
Amidst serious threats of guilt needing pardon’s sufficiency…
Oh, how I seek You, overcoming my doubts and lack of persistency.
Thank You for performing Your oath unto me with Your wisdom
Letting me regard Your work in advancing Your kingdom
Amidst foolish opinions causing intellectual boredom…
Oh, how I cling to You, turning from my humanistic freedom.
Thank You for performing Your oath unto me with Your covenant
Letting me appreciate Your faithfulness, sovereignly dominant
Amidst carnal accomplishments making me in Your service, stagnant…
Oh, how I abide in You, casting my cares as an earthly tenant.
