Prayer Request for Our Nation
Place of Great Pleasure
If you
like to golf, it doesn’t take much urging from a fellow golfer to get you out
on the course. Insert your favorite activity; if there’s an invitation, you’re
there. So why does the Psalmist have to ask the Lord to lead him where he
delights to go? George Robinson knew the answer as he composed the words to a
hymn, “Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it / Prone to leave the God I love /
Here’s my heart, O, take and seal it / Seal it for Thy courts above.” He knew
his own heart.
Lead me in the path of your commandments,
for I delight in it.
Psalm 119:35

Do you
know yours? “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick
[wicked].” (Jeremiah 17:9) There is one word that should characterize your life
– yield. To yield yourself to God is to have Him lead you in the right path…the
path of obedience. There is no place of greater pleasure or joy than to be
obedient.
Cease your struggles. Quit trying to run your own life. Yield to the One who can be your guide through every storm. Then intercede for America’s leaders, that they may come to know the God of wisdom and believe.
