Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Psalm 139:23-24

Fast: Dinner
Pray: Search me

God, search me and know me. I want You so deeply. I desire You more than anything. I do not want anything to be in between You and me, so I invite You to search me. Know my heart, my actions, my attitudes. Search every part of my heart: my thoughts, my intentions, the deepest places. I give you full permission to show me.

Read Psalm 139: 22-23. When you pray like in this Psalm, you should sit with the Lord for a few minutes and let Him search you. Maybe even have some worship music. There are times that He shows you right away and there are times He convicts you and shows you that it’s your attitude, anger, anxious thoughts, un-forgiveness. When He shows you, write it down. Then come back to this devotional.

God thank you for showing me __________________________________________.

I give it to you. Forgive me for ___________________________________________.

I know that when I confess, You are faithful to forgive. Show me how to correct it. Show me what You want to be done with it. Show me how to walk forward from this. Speak to me in this place.

Again listen. He will show you what to do with it. Sometimes it’s an attitude and you have to submit it to Him. You have to come up with ways to submit that attitude to God’s spirit or a Scripture to speak over yourself that combats that attitude. At times just the repentance of it to God is all it takes for freedom. Sometimes you have to go ask for forgiveness from whomever you have wronged. Sometimes He convicts of a behavior and actions you do daily. Sometimes He shows you a thought pattern. Submit it to the Lord and find a Scripture to replace that thought with. Write down a plan in that moment with the Lord on how to combat those things.
