«Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.» (Psalm 51:10 NIV)
Oh God, create in me a pure heart …
- A heart that won’t run with lust after physical pleasure,
- A heart that obediently refuses what you’ve rightly and wisely fenced away as sin,
- A heart of love that never insists on its own way (1 John 2:16).
Oh God, create in me a pure heart …
- A heart that knows no greed when it looks upon worldly treasures,
- A heart that thinks of others, and not itself,
- A heart that argues for love instead of fairness.
Oh God, create in me a pure heart …
- A heart that never boasts about what it has or what its done,
- A heart that walks humbly, not trying to appear more important than it is,
- A heart that takes no pride in the flesh.
Oh God, create in me a pure heart …
- A heart that chases after you,
- A heart that looks to you for its provision,
- A heart that trusts that you are at work in others,
- A heart that does not manipulate people or circumstances,
- A heart that looks upon the things above and not the things below.
Heavenly Father, renew a steadfast spirit within me …
- A spirit committed completely to you,
- A spirit that is not double-minded,
- A spirit that is focused, and single minded on your purposes,
- A spirit resolved to know Christ and Christ alone.
So what?
- Start from the top of the devotional, and work your way down.
