Devotion for Monday, July 15, 2019

“There I will cause the horn of David to spring forth; I have prepared
a lamp for Mine anointed.  “His enemies I
will clothe with shame, but upon himself his crown shall shine.”  (Psalm 132:17-18)

How will you live?  Will you abide in the presence of the Lord
always?  With what will you adorn
yourself?  Will it be the things of the
world or with the Creator of all things? 
These are the questions that guide how we live life.  Come then and live into the faith which has
been given you.  Walk in the ways which
have been established by the Lord and know His goodness and mercy.

Lord, You have come that I may learn from You and walk in the eternal
ways You have established.  Guide me, O
Lord, that I may walk in Your grace and mercy. 
Lead me that I may now and forever abide with You and You with me.  Crown Your will upon my life that I would
walk in the light of Your countenance and know the goodness You give to those
who are faithful.

Teach me, Lord Jesus, to walk in all of the ways You have modeled for the faithful.  Lead me in the goodness of Your grace and mercy that I would now and forever abide in You and You in me.  You have come to lead me by grace into faithfulness.  Guide me, O Lord, that I may become more like You this day.  Help me in every way necessary that nothing would hinder me.  Amen.
