'Examine me, O LORD, and test me'

Posted

“Examine me, O LORD, and test me; try my reins and my heart. For thy lovingkindness is before my eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.” Psalm 26:2-3

David here asks the LORD God to examine and test his innermost thoughts and desires so that he might repent of any evil in his life, look to God for mercy and forgiveness, and continue to walk in God’s truth. Are you willing to ask God to examine your heart and soul and reveal any evil in you so that you might repent and appeal to God’s lovingkindness for pardon and the strength to amend your life and live for Him?

_“Examine me, O LORD, and test me; try my reins and my heart,” and move me to repent of my sinful ways and look to Christ Jesus and His cross for mercy and forgiveness. Grant that I live my life for You in accord with Your Word. Amen.

[Scripture is quoted from the Revised 1833 Webster Version of the Bible.]
