Day 177

Father, 

We praise You for Your sovereignty over all hearts—our enemies, our allies, and ourselves. You are a good God whose sovereignty sets our hearts at ease. If You were evil or foolish, it would be tragic and terrifying for You to be in control. But because You are good and wise, Your sovereignty is our greatest comfort. Thank You that Your plans for our good and Your glory have been established and will be accomplished.

Like Baasha and his family, we’ve chased after worthless things—idols and vanities. We’ve spun our wheels worshipping something that won’t last. And we repent. Have mercy on me, a sinner. We turn from our idolatry and turn to You, the One true God, the only One who can make our hearts clean. 

Would You help us to be more like Jehoshaphat, who was courageous in following You? Help us to seek and honor You. So much of Your work happens at a heart level, so shape our hearts to look like Yours, God.

We surrender our lives and our hearts to You—our thoughts, words, actions, and inactions. We yield our will and way to Your perfect will and way. 

We love You too. Amen.
