Prayers for Illumination on Commands

Adapted from Psalm 119:33-37

Teach us, O Lord, the way of your statutes;
and we will keep it to the end.
Give us understanding, that we may keep your law
and observe it with our whole hearts.
Lead us in the path of your commandments,
for we delight in it.
Incline our hearts to your testimonies,
and not to selfish gain!
Turn our eyes from looking at worthless things;
and give us life in your ways.
Lead us in the path of eternal life
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

Psalm 119:33-37 (pronouns changed for corporate worship, ESV)

Gracious God,

give us humble, teachable,

and obedient hearts,

that we may receive what you have revealed,

and do what you have commanded. Amen.
