The Believer's Daily Remembrancer
O keep my soul, and deliver me. - Psalms 25:20
What a mercy to have a God to go to, a throne of grace set before us, and the precious name of Jesus to plea. How encouraging the examples set before us in God’s holy word. Let us imitate them who spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
We are going into the world; the business of the day is before us; our hearts are false and fickle; let our prayer be, "OH, KEEP MY SOUL". Keep me from sin, let me not indulge it in my heart, or commit it in my life - keep me from Satan, suffer him not to lead me astray from Thee - keep me from men, let them not prevail against me. Keep me in Thy way - in Thy truth - in Thy church.
Keep me by Thy word - Thy spirit - Thy presence - or Thy rod. "DELIVER ME" : from guilt and condemnation, from fear and shame. Keep me at Thy footstool, and deliver me from my own wandering heart. Let me be clothed in the robe of righteousness - cleansed in the fountain of my Saviour’s blood - accepted in His glorious person and perfect work - and be crowned with loving kindness and tender mercy. "Keep me as the apple of the eye."
Ah, will not He who ransom’d man,
A Saviour’s work fulfil?
Almighty is His power - He can :
Boundless His love - He will,
Saviour Divine! deliver me,
Oh, keep my soul still near to Thee!
