Default Prayer for the Heart

NEED A HOLY SPIRIT FILLED HEART

Heavenly Father, Ancient of Days
The heart of a man is deceitful above all things
Only You God who knows it
You search the heart and test motives and thoughts
O Father I need a heart filled with Your Spirit.

LORD I understand and agree my heart is wicked
Therefore LORD I repent-renew my heart
Take away this stony heart from me
Put a new heart and new Spirit
O God circumcise this heart by Your Spirit

Evil must not be found in my heart,
May it be pure, O LORD wash it
By the blood of Jesus Christ
Cleanse my heart, I am such a sinner
O sinner I am, and disobedient person, forgive me LORD

Lies still proceed from my heart
Remove this filthiness in my heart
My heart is full of pride and selfish ambitions
O Gracious God purge me with hyssop
Renew steadfast Spirit in me

I don’t want to meditate on evil anymore
But only on Your word
Only on Your precepts and statutes
Put a heart that will believe You and Love You always
I need a Holy Spirit filled heart

LORD You looks at the heart of man
It must be the altar where I offer my meditations
And they must smell as a sweet aroma to You
May You rejoice on my heart
Father I pray in the name above every name-Jesus Christ

It must be a place where I put pillars of remembrance
Whenever I have an encounter with You
Whenever I have wrestled with You
Then offer offering of Praise on this heart
LORD I need a Holy Ghost filled heart



My Lord Fill it with the Holy Spirit
When Your Light comes out like the sun
May the dew-Your Word-evaporates from it
And return to You not void
But with my character changed to Your likeliness

May if be full of grain offering
With every deed of my body and meditations be unleavened
May it offer firstfruits of thanksgiving prayer and praise every second
Lord I repent; I am a sinner-transform me to a better person
May I decrease and You grow in me, each and everyday

May this heart be sensitive to the voice of the Spirit
Because the Spirit speak Your heart
O Lord how can I miss Your counsel?
By Your counsel I live-I need You Father God
In Christ Jesus name I pray

Amen

Hi Nathi,

The Holy Spirit has spoken to my heart. You talked of believing not being enough. You may enjoy the following meaning of "genuine belief."

The word "believe" is an interesting Biblical word that has been relegated to simply a "mental assent" to truth. A sort of intellectualism and traditionalism. Many people "mentally" believe that Jesus died on the cross, but their life does not change. They may lead "moral" lives and have a good reputation but they do not "hunger and "thirst after righteousness."

However, the enemy of all righteousness has stolen the true Biblical meaning of "belief." Let's not let him have that power to destroy "genuine belief."

The Bible describes belief as more than a mental assent to truth as I have stated. For example:

"For with the HEART [not just mental] one 'believes' unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Rom. 10:10 (Remember: believing and having faith is the same word in the original language, pistis).

Hence, God's definition of "believing" is far different than man's humanistic powerless meaning. The apostle Paul's powerful idea of believing or having faith is built on the foundation of Jesus' definition of the revelation of God's love must come firs, for no man can believe without it.

Then "faith [genuine Biblical belief] ... worketh by love." Galatians 5:6. The word "worketh" is the word energeo. Another words, genuine belief is ENERGIZED by Love. Not human love but God's love (agape).

Because faith (believing) is not a superficial, sentimental emotion, it grips human hearts at its deepest level of affection and profound feeling. That love is revealed at the cross, "whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood." Romans 3:25.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever [genuinely] believes will not perish but have everlasting life."

I believe that the most famous verse in the Bible is probably the least understood in it's deepest meaning. It has to do with serving God with unending energy and love for mankind.

blessings to you in Christ,
John

Nathi.... That is a wonderful a wonderful prayer and if my memory serves me right you have written poems on other threads as well. Have you ever thought of conpiling them all in a book ?

I think I mentioned it before as well that if we could have a place for gifted people like you. Or even if you could just make a thread of Nathi's work.... That would be so inspiring.

Thankyou for the Blessing.

Hi Nathi,

The story of Jacob is a great account of "wrestling" with God. There are some churches that do a lot of wrestling with the enemy. God has not asked us to do such a thing. We have nothing in us, all the authority is Christ's, which works in us by the power of the Holy Spirit.

The promise is: “To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame and am set down with my Father in his throne.” Rev. 3:21. Now the word “Israel” signifies, “a prince of God,” or “one who prevails.” It was given to Jacob after he had wrestled all night with the angel, and had gained the victory. The Lord said to him: “Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel; for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.” Gen. 32:28. Therefore an overcomer is an Israelite; and the promise is that to those who are Israelites Christ will grant to sit with him on his throne.

John
