Create In Me A Clean Heart

CLOSING:- When we look at Psalm 51 and we take a honest look at our own lives in connection with the Will and Word of God we must check our personal relationship and ask the question m I aligned properly with God, Have I sinned against Him, am I truly in a proper relationship with God like He wants me to be, if Jesus followed me for a day, at work, at school, in the car what would He have witnessed in my life.

So I pray this prayer a David prayed:- Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Fix my heart so that I may be used by thee. I’m not worthy of all these blessings but please give me a clean heart and I will follow thee. I’m not asking for the riches of this land and I’m not asking for high men to know my name. Please give me a clean heart so that I may follow thee.
