S – Test me, Lord, and try me; examine my heart and mind. 3 For your faithful love guides me,
and I live by your truth
Psalms 26:2–3 CSB
O – David asks God to do three things:
- Test – Investigate him, examine
- Try – Discern, prove
- Examine – fuse, refine
He is confident in his heart and mind and surrendered to God’s love and truth to guide (stand boldly) him.
A – We can walk with the same confidence in our relationship with God. When we are consistently faithful to the relationship with him, our thoughts and actions align with his will. By inviting God to examine us, we continue to grow and obtain more of his character. We will live boldly and model God’s love to others.
R – Heavenly Father, you are the Supreme God and there is no other. Empower us today by your Holy Spirit to surrender all of ourselves to you. We want you to test, try and examine us. Whatever doesn’t align with you, we surrender it to you. We want to live by your truth with a pure heart today.
