Personal Weakness (Psalm 6, Part 2)

God Save Us (verses 4-5)

http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ps%206:4-5&version=NIV

Christ’s body needs God to save us. The Church, which seems dead, needs God’s life and His unfailing love.

Turn, Lord God, deliver us, Your Church. Save us because of Your unfailing love. Fill us with Your life so that we can boldly proclaim Your name.

Sorrowful Weeping (verses 6-7)

http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ps%206:6-7&version=NIV

In our satisfaction with the status quo of a materialistic worldview the Church has no sense of conviction. May God’s people groan with sorrowful weeping. May we sanctify by our tears the polluted body of Christ.

O Lord, convict us. Fill us with a deep sense of sorrow and shame for what we have become. In our weeping Your Holy Spirit make intercession for us (Romans 8:26). Wipe away our weeping and tears.
