Today’s Prayer (01/14/2021)

Oh Lord, I thank You for Your hand in my life. I would not be where I am today if You had not freed me from my addictions and bad habits. Porn had almost ruined my life, my marriage, my family, my job, and my relationship with my friends. There was nothing going for me, but only shame and regret. I thought I was fine at the moment, while my pleasures were taken care of. As my lust was perked, I thought it made me happy, but in an instant, I knew I was very wrong. In these highs, it always came crashing down on me in utter guilt. I hated feeling like this but didn’t have any way out. If You had not rescued me, I don’t even know if I would still be married, have a family, or be alive. I was going downhill fast, but You heard my cries. In my confessions, You took my hand and raised me up. My past was erased and I could stand without guilt in my way. As I began to walk, I saw how merciful You were to a sinful man, such as I. I didn’t deserve Your love for me, but it didn’t matter, You loved me still. Only You would not give up on me, even though I had sinned so much over the years. I pretty much trampled over what You said is holy, but still, You had compassion upon me. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Lord. Thank You for this new heart. Thank You for this new mind. Thank You for my new eyes. You breathed in me the Holy Spirit and I can finally see You. My mind has been opened up to find true wisdom from on high. Even has my heart been filled with Your great love. No more lust fills me, but utter love for every person I meet. Wow. I am in awe. You such a good God. I praise You. I love You. Amen.

Psalm 32:1-5

Psalm 32:1-5 (KJV)
1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
2 Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.
4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.
5 I acknowledge my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the Lord; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
