Prayer for the Word of God

Lord,

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (John 1:1). I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil (Psalm 119:162). The word of the Lord is right and true; he is faithful in all he does (Psalm 33:4). My heart stands in awe of your words (Psalm 119:161).

Your Law is perfect, reviving the soul; Your testimony is sure, making wise the simple; Your precepts are right, rejoicing the heart; Your commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes; the fear of the lord is clean, enduring forever; Your rules are true, and righteous altogether. Your word is more desirable than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb. By your word, your servant warned; in keeping your commandments there is great reward (Psalm 19:7-11).

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:12). Let it be a lamp to my feet and a light to my path (Psalm 119:105). Let me not be merely a hearer of the word, but a doer of the word (James 1:22).

The word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sward, piercing to the division of the soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart (Hebrews 4:12). Those who love your law have great peace; nothing can make them stumble (Psalm 119:165).

Heaven and earth will pass away, but your words will not pass away (Luke 21:33). The Word of our God endures forever (Isaiah 40:8).

Amen
