The devotion today is about the itchy pest of temptation. In order to be strong when we face temptations, we need God’s help. We are able to resist and refocus when we align our hearts and desires to the heart and will of God. That’s what this song is about. Hope it blesses!
Yes, Lord. Please take my heart captive. Amen
Amen?
Where does this song find you today?
Blessed to be doing life with you,
Gwen

Dear Lord,
You are mighty to save, your mercies are new every morning, and your love is unstoppable. Thank you for your grace. Thank you for being a Shelter and Strong Tower when we need a hiding place. YOU are our hiding place, Father. I pray that you will overwhelm Tammy today with your grace and presence. Remind her that no matter what she is facing that you are there and that your grace is sufficient. Please lead her to a place of purity and holiness through your kindness that leads us to repentance. Restore to her the joy of your salvation and give her strength to rise up on eagles wings as she waits and hopes on you.
In Jesus’s Name,
Amen
I need the LORD to take my heart my mind my body and my soul captive
So know the feeling, Tammy! Read Psalm 84 today and lean in to listen to His voice. Praying for you!
In Grace,
Gwen
Take my heart captive is my prayer. My heart is shredded and broken but it is all I have to offer him.

Gwen,
Thank you for such a awesome song!Personally,am going through difficult times,that has led me to the grace of God’s love,& forgiveness that you sing about in your song.Am asking to be lifted up in prayer,for the lord to continue to strengthen my inner character,as I am facing a trial with my ex bf due to sinful actions,on my part,& not having any boundaries in my life,or relationship with him caused me to send him mixed messages from the start.And want to be changed by the lord, is hard but necessary,or I will never be the free,& whole person the lord wants me to be.Self-Control,fear,& anger are my three biggest emotions,that I’m learning I can control these unhealthy reactions,& instead respond,by trust,& obeying ,& being more of a doer of the word,than just a hearer!Thank you,for your encouraging heartfelt song,I want my heart to be captured,by the lord, & am keeping faith he will bring me through.
