WHAT DO WE ASK FOR?

Psalms 26:4 LXX (27:4)

One thing I ask from the Lord; this I will seek,
That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,
And behold the delights of the Lord,
And visit His temple.

Personal challenge

David was identified by God as a man after His own heart. This verse gives a glimpse into David’s heart and why God cherished him so much. David was a wealthy, powerful, and successful king, and yet, his life desire was to be in the presence of his God. What is it that we desire and ask for? Wealth? Power? Prestige? Success? Jesus told us that what is in our heart is what drives us. We are seeing the evidence of this in our world today with so many people, especially leaders, proclaiming to be followers of Christ but focusing all their energy, desire, and love on the things of this world. We must constantly be evaluating our lives to determine if we have replaced our love and desire for our Lord by things of this world and reset to what really matters! Lord have mercy! Lord have mercy! Lord, have mercy!
