Lord God, You Are My Sanctifier
February 28 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on Joshua 7-9
Key Verse – Joshua 7:13 Up, sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against to morrow: for thus saith the LORD God of Israel, There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from among you..
LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY SANCTIFIER
Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against accursed trespass and unholiness
Thank You for forgiving my confessed conscience-smiting filthiness
As I repent from neglecting Your warning for unrighteousness…
Deliver me from corruption-destructiveness.
Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against backsliding
Thank You for correcting my wayward environ-treading
As I learn from Your Word, gaining biblical understanding…
Drive me toward prayer altar-building.
Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against sin-spoilage
Thank You for purging my self-inflicted trouble-bondage
As I come to You for freedom-flight, surpassing temptation-frontage…
Draw me away from covetousness-rampage.
Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against pursuit for vanity
Thank You for hindering my ascent to secularism-liberty
As I avoid craving for materialistic security…
Direct me to Your will of spirituality by Your reigning authority.
Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against pride’s destruction
Thank You for guarding my heart from arrogance-caused isolation
As I participate in the fulfillment of Your great commission…
Deter me along paths of haughtiness’ curse-abomination.
Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against false religion’s insight
Thank You for admonishing me to conquer pull of humanistic flight
As I journey upward stewardship-servanthood height…
Deal with me according to Your counsel delight.
Lord God, You are my Sanctifier against murmuring’s grievance
Thank You for reminding my oath of vow-perseverance
As I overcome tendency to succumb toward troubles’ disturbance…
Discipline me from engaging in carnal encumbrance.
