"Holy and just God! You love to the extent that You choose wretched people and heal, raise, grieve, and even discipline them. We thank you that you burn with jealously and anger when we forget the grace you’ve shown, when we are engrossed in sin and become one with the world.
We realize how just you are through today’s passage (Ezekiel 16:35-53), in which you punish and grieve on behalf of Judah, for she committed more vile and detestable sins than did Samaria and Sodom. God, at this time when the world has forgotten about your grace, when the world holds the church in contempt, would you cause us to discern what’s on your heart, that we may live a mature life which you delight and take pride.
Would you help us to turn away from all sin, as we realize and are deeply moved by your heart which loves to the point of anger. As we earnestly desire to live lives that manifest the Lord’s holiness and wholeness, give thanks to God, and positively influence and touch the hearts of those in the world, in Jesus’ name we pray. Amen."
Begin your mornings with Pastor Kim's daily prayers. Reverend Dae Joon Kim is the senior pastor at LA Vision Church.
