Desperately Seeking in Prayer: Praying Psalm 28
Ps. 28:1 Unto
thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent
to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
Ps. 28: 6 Blessed
be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
O my Lord, I cry to you in quiet desperation! Time is going by so rapidly, and my efforts
to disciple others is progressing so slowly that I feel as if I have been
dragged into pit of the failure and non-accomplishment. I truly want to do what
you have commanded with all authority in Heaven and on Earth. I beseech you! Must my cries be vocal? Your Word does say that you search the hearts
of men, and before we utter a word you know our motives, thoughts, and words
completely.
O my father, I thank and praise you for the knowledge you
have already given me. In teaching
others Lord, teach me to express my thoughts simply so that they can understand
quickly before they lose interest. Help
me to know how to express these thoughts at the moment that they will have the
most impact.
O, My Shepherd Savior, teach me your character and your ways
of shepherding that I might be a shepherding scribe. O Lord Jesus, open doors of opportunity and enable
me with the power of your Holy Spirit!
Bear fruit through me before both I and the people who so desperately
need to become disciples pass from the scene.
Thank You, Lord, for those who are doing something. It is a marvel of your grace! Be gracious to me and mobilize me. Then I shall be able to praise you for what you
have completed through me and not simply for your blessings to others.
I hope in your mercy
and grace; I preach this to others that you may be glorified in them, a
testimony of your grace that both saves and sanctifies when people can see your
answers. They cannot see my faith, nor
be persuaded by my secret prayers. Hear my
heart cries for then I can testify to the world that you, Lord God, and only
you are my strength and shield.
