Devotion for Saturday, September 7, 2019

“Lord, I cry out to You; make haste to me!  Give ear to my voice when I cry out to
You.  Let my prayer be set before You as
incense, the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.”  (Psalm 141:1-2)

The Lord hears the prayers of
all of His saints.  He knows the cry and
longing of every heart.  He watches the
coming and going of all.  He has promised
to bring all things together for good for those who love Him.  Be guided in the way of hope and truth.  Be led by His Spirit to walk humbly with the
One who knows you and has plans for you. 
Know that He hears you when you pray.

Be the guide, O Lord, that You have promised to be.  Help me to know that You hear me when I
pray.  Lead me according to Your goodness
and mercy to see the path for my footsteps and hear the instructions You place
upon my heart.  You know what I face and
the need I have.  You know the plans and
how they must unfold in this age.  Lead
me according to Your never-failing Word.

Lord Jesus, You have sent Your
Spirit to be the guide for our lives. 
Lead me this day in the way I need to go, knowing that all things have
always been in Your hands.  Help me to
see through the haze of this age and know that You are here guiding me.  Put prayers on my lips and willingness in my
heart that I would praise You all the days of my life.  Lead me according to Your grace in hope and
mercy.  Amen.
