Day 27 | Sweet Spirit of God

This is a prayer that the Holy Spirit would make the person and work of Jesus more and more central in our hearts so that we would be changed. The Spirit transforms us by causing us to realize the depth of what happened at the cross. This is a prayer about furthering that realization.

Sweet Spirit of God,
Move, I pray, upon my disordered heart.
Lift the clouds of darkness and unbelief.
Brighten my soul with the pure light of your word,
And take the things of Christ and show them plainly to me.
Through thee may I daily learn more of his
Grace, compassion, faithfulness, beauty.
Help me to find in his death the reality and immensity of his love
Open for me the wondrous volumes of truth in his “It is finished.”
Increase my faith in the clear knowledge of
Atonement achieved,
Satisfaction made,
Guilt done away,
My debt paid,
My sins forgiven,
My future redeemed,
Hell vanquished,
Heaven opened,
Eternity made mine.
Sweet Spirit of God,
Deepen in me these saving lessons.
Write them upon my heart, that my days may be
Sin-loathing, sin-fleeing, and Christ-loving.
For the upbuilding of your holy church,
And the furthering of your fame. Amen.
