One of the things that happens as I pray scripture is that God uses his word to transform me.
Psalm 86:2 says this,
“Guard my life, for I am faithful to you;
save your servant who trusts in you.
You are my God;”
As David pens the words, “Guard my life” he does so with great boldness. When I sit down to pray the words, “I am faithful to you”, or “I trust you” I have this check inside of my spirit that seems to say, “Really?” It becomes a time of evaluation. Am I really faithful to the God who has been more than faithful to me? Do I really trust him with everything? Would other people look at me and describe me as being faithful and trusting to God?
As I pray I ask God to increase my faith and increase my level of trust. As that happens, I am transformed.
Let me hold nothing back, “You are my God.”
Everyone Belongs,
Paul
