Day 1: Craving for the Word

Lord Jesus, You are the Word of God. When I crave the Word, I crave You. I pray that You would give me an insatiable desire for the Word and for it to stay in my memory. I pray that when I am seeking guidance, You would turn my heart toward reading Your eternal truths.

I pray that when I miss my quiet time, You would give me discomfort, like when I’m hungry or thirsty. And when I feel like I can’t retain information, please help me to remember Your words. When I sit and pray, when I love, when I discipline, or when I’m just going about my duties for the day, may Your words be ever present in my mind.

I pray for a godly pleasure as I study that reading Your words would fill me with joy. Please bring others into my path who will study with me. I pray that You would highlight the resources that will help me understand Your Word better.

Oh God, Your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path (Psalm 119:105). Help me to faithfully seek Your words even when reading feels like a chore. I trust You, Lord, to mold me into the image of Your only begotten Son. May every cell in my being crave the knowledge that comes from Your Word.
