Day 136
Daniel 4-9
Scripture: 9 18 Give ear, our God, and hear; open your eyes and see the desolation of the city that bears your Name. We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy.
Observation: we ask because we know God is a merciful God and not because we are righteous.
Application: yes sometimes people think they are righteous and deserve things and with that attitude then ask God for things and when He doesn’t answer the prayer they get all upset etc. we have to always remember to listen to him and then only ask him what he showed us to be in his plan for us. And also to ask this not because we think we deserve it or that we are such good people or that we are righteous but because we serve a merciful and loving God. And it is only because of that fact that our prayers might be answered…
Prayer: Thank you Father for being merciful and loving. Help us to remember this every day and thank you for this every day. Thank you so much for what you do for us each and every day. Please be with those who do not follow you help them to feel your presence and to know it is you who are looking after them and giving them strength every day. We ask this in your name alone…amen
