Message of the Day: Create In Me A Clean Heart, O God: A Prayer All Of Us Should Pray.
“Create in me clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence, And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And uphold me by Your generous Spirit.” (Psalm 51:10-12, NKJV)

Having committed adultery with Bathsheba, David then arranged for husband Uriah to be killed, so that he could take her into the palace as a royal wife. Nathan, the prophet, found out David’s sinful acts and rebuked him to his face. He then pronounced God’s judgment upon him. This psalm displays David’s deep sorrow as he confesses his sin to God.
What David fears the most is to be separated from God. He therefore asks God for new heart, one that is clean, so he might be restored in His presence.
Create in me a clean heart O, God, is a prayer all of us ought to pray constantly asking God for grace and strength to keep His commandments.
