Psalm 57:7. “My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.”
MY HEART IS FIXED. Confusion seems to be rampant in the nation – People have ignored the path of the righteous. For most, there is no reasonable, knowable conclusion – Decisions are made only based on what they feel is best. Our nation one time had the fear of God on it – But we have not been faithful to our young. Without guidelines of the Bible, we have become dishonest – The effects of sin are felt from the highest office to the humblest home.
Home life has become disintegrated and strange. Parents are busy, and children don’t know where to turn. The standards of conduct once taught, now are changed – And young and old alike submit to self-passion that burns. How can our young survive? How can they live in honor? When the basic rules of living are let go? In some way, we must stop and turn some corner – And fundamental change we must really show.
I wonder, as each year passes, where will this end? Will God cast off this nation – those people once so strong?
May God’s Gospel once again be sounded out – please send Some faithful Christians in every place point out wrongs. May truths once held so dear again be taught, May standards once held across the nation be held again. May citizens again in faith say, “What hath God wrought?” And may I be privileged to see this begin.
Whatever comes or stays – my heart is fixed, Whatever way the leaders lead or fail – By the grace of God alone – my heart is fixed, Praying God that righteousness and truth will prevail. In the role of life, God gave – my heart is fixed, I know there’s only a little I can do – But as an intercessor, I come betwixt – Sinful man and a Holy God, so true.
“I pray for this nation and the people, Holy God, for as a privileged nation, we have gone far away from Thee. It affects all the people, particularly the younger generations, and their response to the word of the Gospel. Though I feel very inadequate, I am committed to the work Thou hast given me. Am I using my gift properly? I pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
