Profess your Believing Hope and Confidence in God

Adoration 1.17 | KJV

I must likewise profess my believing hope and confidence in God and his all-sufficiency, in his power, providence, and promise.

In thee, O God, do I put my trust, let me never be ashamed; Psalm 31:1(KJV) yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed. Psalm 25:3(KJV)

Truly my soul waits upon God; from him cometh my salvation: he only is my Rock and my salvation! Psalm 62:1-2(KJV) In him is my glory, my strength, and my refuge, and from him is my expectation. Psalm 62:5-7(KJV)

When refuge fails me, and none cares for my soul, I cry unto thee, O Lord, Thou art my refuge, and my portion in the land of the living. Psalm 142:4-5(KJV)

Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but I will remember the name of the Lord my God. Psalm 20:7(KJV) I will trust in thy mercy, O God, for ever and ever, and will wait on thy name, for it is good before thy saints. Psalm 52:8-9(KJV)

I have hoped in thy word; Psalm 119:81(KJV) O remember thy word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope. Psalm 119:49(KJV)

Humbly Profess the Desire of your Heart for God

Adoration 1.16 | KJV

I must humbly profess the desire of my heart towards God, as my felicity and portion and fountain of life and all good to me.

Whom have I in heaven but thee? And there is none upon earth that I desire besides thee or in comparison of thee. When my flesh and my heart fail, be thou the strength of my heart and my portion for ever, Psalm 73:25-26(KJV) the portion of my inheritance in the other world and of my cup in this; and then I will say that the lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places, and that I have a goodly heritage. Psalm 16:5-6(KJV)

The desire of my soul is to thy name and to the remembrance of thee; with my soul have I desired thee in the night, and with my spirit within me will I seek thee early. Isaiah 26:8-9(KJV)

As the hart panteth after the water brook, so panteth my soul after thee, O God; my soul thirsteth for God, for the living God, Psalm 42:1-2(KJV) who will command his loving-kindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer to the God of my life. Psalm 42:8(KJV)

O that I may come hungering and thirsting after righteousness, Matthew 5:6(KJV) for thou fillest the hungry with good things, but the rich thou sendest empty away. Luke 1:53(KJV)

O that my soul may thirst for thee, and my flesh long for thee in a dry and thirsty land where no water is; that I may see thy power and thy glory, as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. Thy loving-kindness is better than life; Psalm 63:1-3(KJV) my soul shall be satisfied with that as with marrow and fatness, and then my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips. Psalm 63:5(KJV)

Express your Unworthiness to Draw Near to God

Adoration 1.15 | KJV

I must express the sense I have of my own meanness and unworthiness to draw near to God and speak to him.

But will God in very deed dwell with man upon the earth? That God whom the heaven of heavens cannot contain, 2 Chronicles 6:18(KJV) with man that is a worm, and the son of man that is a worm? Job 25:6(KJV)

Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my father’s house, that thou hast brought me hitherto to present myself before the Lord? 2 Samuel 7:18(KJV) That I have through Christ an access by one Spirit unto the Father? Ephesians 2:18(KJV) And yet, as if this had been a small thing in thy sight, thou hast spoken concerning thy servant for a great while to come, and is this the manner of men, O Lord God? 2 Samuel 7:19(KJV)

What is man that thou art thus mindful of him, and the son of man that thou visitest him, Psalm 8:4(KJV) and dost thus magnify him?

O let not the Lord be angry, Genesis 18:30(KJV) if I that am but dust and ashes take upon myself to speak unto the Lord of glory. Genesis 18:27(KJV)

I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies and of all the truth, which thou hast showed unto thy servant; Genesis 32:10(KJV) nor is it meet to take the children’s bread and cast it to such as I am; yet the dogs eat of the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table; Matthew 15:26-27(KJV) and thou art rich in mercy to all that call upon thee. Romans 10:12(KJV)
