“Teach me Your way, O LORD; I will walk in Your truth; unite my heart to fear Your name.” Psalm 86:11
Prior to the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit, each of our hearts was united in the service of sin — we sought to go in our own selfish and sinful ways. Having been brought to faith in Christ, we now have a new nature that loves God and desires to walk in accord with the truth of His Word. However, in this life, we still have our old and corrupt sinful natures. With the psalmist, we pray that God would unite our divided hearts to honor the name of our God and Savior in all we think, say, and do.
Unite my heart, O God, to love You, trust in You, and honor You in all I think and do. I ask this for the sake of Jesus, my Savior. Amen.
