Psalm 1:2-3
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
3 He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water,
Which yields its fruit in its season
And its leaf does not wither;
And in whatever he does, he prospers.

LORD, I long to be like a tree that is rooted, stable and green in all conditions of life. I long to stand courageous in the challenges of real life. I long to know deep in my soul that I will last in the driest of times. Therefore, I ask that Your Word would become my delight, not simply my duty. I ask that I would be ruthless in creating space for Your Word to sink deep into my soul—disrupting, instructing, correcting, comforting, refreshing as needed to produce ever expanding life.

Meditate on these verses today as your first answer to this prayer.

Pray this prayer for yourself and 5 other people today.

Desperately desiring the truth of the Word of Jesus to transform us,
Neil
