Lord,

You desire obedience. Give me an obedient heart towards you. Reading about the rebellion of the children of Israel when attacking Ai quickly reminded me how deeply you desire obedience. I pray the deepest spaces, the hidden spaces, the areas nobody knows about, I pray they would be obedient to you. I pray you would not find me hiding anything from you. I pray the depths of me would be honoring of you.

Lord, thank you for reconciliation. You are constantly restoring your relationship with your people. When we don’t deserve it and have rebelled against it, you constantly give us opportunities to come back. Lord, bring me back to you. Bring me closer to you. Bring me into deeper intimacy with you.

Lastly, thank you for your victories. You have been so faithful to me, even when I don’t deserve it. You’ve given me victory over the lies and attacks of the enemy, and you’ve been a faithful Savior to me.

Help me to be obedient today, closer today, and victorious today.

In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
