A Pure Heart

If we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, purify our heart, renew a steadfast spirit within, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Our insatiable cry should be, purify my heart O Lord. Cleanse us from our sins. Create in us a clean heart. Restore to us the joy of our salvation and renew a godly spirit within us.
Choose the good and rid the evil so that our new, born-again-life in Christ (our new-nature in Him) may be increasingly conformed into the image and likeness of the Lord Jesus.
"Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me."

Our United Prayer:
Thank You, Father, that in Your wisdom You give us a new nature, a new, born-again life, received through faith in Christ. Thank You for the lessons we can learn from biblical saints like David, who was cleansed of his sin, when he confessed his faults and cried out to You. Thank You for the ministry of the Holy Spirit, and we pray that You would point out all the areas in our lives that grieve You or quench Your ongoing work within. Create in us a clean heart we pray, and renew a steadfast spirit within us, and may Christ be seen in us as we submit to Your Spirit's leading and do only those things we hear from Him. In Christ's name we pray, AMEN.
