Day 33

FRIDAY, MARCH 26
Scripture
Psalm 141
Devotion
A Psalm of David:
Prayer is a spiritual sacrifice, it is offering up the soul and its best affections. Good men know the evil of tongue sins, and that is why we are asking God to keep our lips sealed. When we are provoked by those who do not believe as we do, we must be careful not to speak evil things about them.
We are living in an evil world and at times we have evil hearts. We need to pray that we are not drawn or driven to anything sinful. Sometimes we seem to find great things in sin but then must consider how soon it can turn into something that is quite bitter. We must pray to God to take these sins out of our sight, and ask Him to turn our hearts against them.
Remember that we must pray against any sins.

Prayer
Sovereign Lord, we come to you with hearts that ache with the sins that we have done. We ask for your forgiveness. Cleanse our hearts and make us new again. Hold our tongue and guide our thoughts so that we can be acceptable in your sight. Remind us to focus on you and you alone. Amen.
