Exodus 20:1-3 ESV – 1 And God spoke all these words, saying, 2 “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. 3 “You shall have no other gods before me.
Psalm 28:7-9 ESV – 7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him. 8 The LORD is the strength of his people; he is the saving refuge of his anointed. 9 Oh, save your people and bless your heritage! Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
Lord God,
You have rescued me from the slavery of sin and made me Your child. You are my Sovereign; You are my master; You are my Father. I want to obey You. But my obedience must not be just to earn favor or exalt myself; my obedience is an act of worship, a glad submission to Your rule over my life. You made me; You chose me; You saved me; You know what is best for me. What mercy and grace that You gave me Your Word to show me Your ways and teach me Your paths, to guide me in Your truth (Psalm 25). You are my strength in weakness; staying close to You in obedience shields me from destruction. Because You hold my heart and my future, I can be grateful, I can praise You in hope. You are my good shepherd.
