The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. – Psalm 19:7
Abba Father, your Counsel and Majesty is indisputable, your Wisdom and your Righteousness transcend spiritual heights and are Perfect and Infallible. All humanity has benefitted by following your direction and counsel and relying on your justice, which is unquestionable. You have guided your people with great love and kindness, paving their path, removing barriers and obstacles, and also defeating the unjust adversaries.
The laws, doctrines and precepts carefully documented and explained are without fault or defect, in absolute accord with your divine attributes. And so devised, that your Holy Will and our duty to follow them is sufficient to remove all anxiety and hesitation on how we are to function, worship and serve, what we are to believe and practise, and whatsoever is necessary for our present and eternal happiness.
Lord, your statutes are needed, for we are easily led astray when there is no doctrine to restrain us. You have given us clear instructions, to implement all that you have commanded and our implicit trust and humility in acknowledging you as our Lord has taught us the wisdom of submission to you. We can rest assured and restored, for you raise us up when we flounder through grievous trouble and terror of mind and conscience and we know we are safe in Jesus our Lord. Amen
