Verse of the Day - 14th May


Let not my heart be drawn to what is evil, to take part in wicked deeds with men who are evildoers; let me not eat of their delicacies.
— Psalms 141:4

Devotion

In this psalm, we find a heartfelt plea from the psalmist, a cry for protection against the allure of evil and the temptation to partake in wicked deeds with those who practice wrongdoing. This verse highlights the struggle that many faces in a world filled with various influences and distractions that can lead us astray from the path of righteousness. As followers of God, we are called to live lives of purity and holiness, standing firm against the enticements of sin that surround us. We must guard our hearts and minds against the subtle invitations of evil, being vigilant in our pursuit of what is good and pleasing to the Lord.

Prayer

Gracious God, we come before You humbly, acknowledging our human frailty and the constant battle against the forces of darkness that seek to ensnare us. Lord, we ask for Your divine strength and wisdom to guard our hearts and minds against the allure of evil. Help us to discern right from wrong, and to resist the temptations that surround us. Father, grant us the courage to stand firm in our faith, even when faced with pressure to compromise our values and principles. May we be rooted and grounded in Your Word, finding nourishment and sustenance in Your truth. Shield us from the influence of those who would lead us astray and guide us safely along the path of righteousness. Lord, as we strive to live lives that honor and glorify You, may our actions and choices reflect Your love and goodness to the world around us. Keep us mindful of the consequences of sin and empower us to walk in obedience to Your will. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
