May my soul magnify the LORD for He is my God and my King. Let there be nothing in me that displeases or grieves the Holy Spirit. My trust is in the LORD. My hope is found only in Jesus. For my life is preserved by His righteousness. My soul is saved by His love. In me there is nothing good besides the Spirit of the LORD. When I wander from His way, my soul is consumed with sorrow. Away from Jesus I find only emptiness and heartache. But with Him, there is life! He is my joy and my delight; the love of my life; the breath of this body. In His counsel I can walk with assurance for He knows the way before me. How can I bless the LORD, my God, when He has given me everything? I will bless Him with adoration and love. I will bless Him with worship as a living sacrifice. For my God is set apart in my heart. No other god can take His place for there is no other besides the Almighty. Therefore my eyes are set on His Kingdom and I will live from there. I rejoice in the purposes of the LORD. I do not idol to the distractions of worldly pleasures. My heart is made glad when His plans prevail. For God is Holy and just. His ways are perfect because His heart is fueled by love. In His presence there is fullness. O LORD, be magnified by my soul and glorified by my life for it is Yours! Under the precious Word of Psalm 103:1-4 and the authority of Christ, I bow in prayer.
Let all that I am praise the Lord;
with my whole heart, I will praise His holy Name.
Let all that I am praise the Lord;
may I never forget the good things He does for me.
He forgives all my sins
and heals all my diseases.
He redeems me from death
and crowns me with love and tender mercies.
Psalm 103:1-4, NLT
His ways are perfect because His heart is fueled by love–Amen!
