Restore this Scripture


Memory Verse:
Restore me to the joy of my salvation.
Your promise in the heavens.
Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal spirit within me. Do not banish me from your presence, and don't take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and make me willing to obey you. Psalm 51:10-12

How can you apply each of these portions of the scripture passage to your life today?
Create in me a clean heart, O God.
Renew a loyal spirit within me.
Do not banish me from your presence,
and don't take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation,
and make me willing to obey you.
Utilize this scripture in your life…in my life.
Create in me a clean heart, O God. – Change my attitude.
Renew a loyal spirit within me. – OK Lord—I submit myself and my life to You—right now.
Do not banish me from your presence, – I will seek to know You more, Lord. If I know You more deeply, then I’m in Your presence. Let it be.
and don't take your Holy Spirit from me. –  Fill me again…and again with Your Holy Spirit.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation, – I rejoice…totally joyful…in knowing that my eternal life began when I accepted You, Lord, as my personal Savior. I don’t have to wait for eternal life—it is now.
and make me willing to obey you. – Make me willing to obey. I am obedient. I love You, Lord.
Are you seeking a renewed spirit or just the renewal of joy—like what you experienced when you first received salvation? That salvation was a gift from God…you didn’t earn it, deserve it nor could you even expect it. God gave it to you—to each of us—when Jesus died on the cross.

Prayer ~ Jesus, Restore us, O LORD, and bring us back to you again! Give us back the joys we once had! Lamentations 5:21.
