My God, Thank You For Hearing My Prayer
July 21 Scripture Meditations Based on Isaiah 36-39
Key Verse – Isaiah 38:5 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.
MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR HEARING MY PRAYER
Thank You for hearing my prayer-earnestness
That reveals my urgent neediness
Against enviousness and greediness’ stubbornness…
Making me grateful for Your goodness.
Thank You for hearing my prayer-request
That shows my heavenly quest midst life's test
Against selfishness and pride’s pest…
Making us appreciative of Your blessings' best.
Thank You for hearing my prayer-supplication
That manifests my eternal vocation
Against carnality and earthliness’ ambition…
Making me responsive to Your instruction.
Thank You for hearing my prayer-plight
That presents my spiritual delight
Against vanity and worldliness’ blight…
Making me radiant by Your light.
Thank You for hearing my prayer-entreaty
That exhibits my sincere humility
Against pride and humanism’s frailty…
Making me obedient to Your authority.
Thank You for hearing my prayer-fervency
That asserts my diligent persistency
Against slothfulness and boredom’s deficiency…
Making me expectant of Your mercy.
Thank You for hearing my prayer-aim
That reflects my revived service-flame
Against doubts and worries’ blame…
Making me exultant of Your fame.
