“O Lord, I give my life to you. I trust in you, my God! Do not let me be disgraced, or let my enemies rejoice in my defeat.” (‭‭(Psalms‬ ‭25‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NLT‬‬))

- Psalm 25 is a great prayer of commitment that you can pray every day.

- It’s a reminder to whom you belong.

- You literally have an opportunity to say, “Lord, I give my life to you!” first thing in the morning.

- If we aren’t careful, we will give our lives to many different things and then give our leftovers to God.

- But when you pray this Psalm and say, “Lord, I give my life to you!”, you are also saying what you do not give your life to.

- This prayer is part of “seeking first the kingdom of God.”

- You are saying, “I will not give my life to social media.”

- Or, “I will not give my life to the approval of others.”

- Or, “I will not give my life to my job.”

- Or, “I will not give my life to any other activity or event. Not even yourself!

- When you give your life to someone, your life is in their hands! Your desires are what they desire.

- Your hope is found in them.

- Your success is in them!

- When you say, “God, I trust in You”, you are placing all of your current success and all of your future plans and dreams in His hands.

- This is what it truly means to say, “In God I trust”

- I’m not trusting in money, position or power! God, I trust in you!

- You know that God will bless you and fulfill you!

- Today is a great day to pray Psalm 25.

- Pray it and then live it out!

- Have a great Tuesday!
