Cause Me to Hear Thy Lovingkindness in the Morning

Cause Me to Hear Thy Lovingkindness in the Morning – Psalm 143:8

Verse of the Day – Psalm 143:8

Sunrise path and chapel - Psalm 143:8 devotion

“Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.”
— Psalm 143:8 (KJV)

Morning is a sacred time—quiet, unspoiled, and full of potential. In this psalm, David voices a prayer we all need: to begin each day with the assurance of God's steadfast love and divine direction. The verse is not merely poetic; it’s a deep soul-cry from one who knows his utter dependence on God.

God's “lovingkindness” isn’t a passing emotion. It’s His covenantal mercy—unfailing, active love rooted in His promises. When we ask to hear of it “in the morning,” we are choosing to start our day centered on God's grace rather than our fears or agendas. And when we ask to “know the way wherein [we] should walk,” we are acknowledging that we do not guide our own steps, but lift our souls to Him for wisdom and strength.

Supporting Scripture:

Lamentations 3:22-23 – “It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed... they are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.”

Application:

Begin each morning by lifting your soul to God in prayer. Don’t wait for the day to unfold to find clarity—seek His loving voice first. Meditate on His faithfulness, and ask Him to direct your steps, even in the small decisions. A heart aligned in the morning will walk straighter paths throughout the day.

“Seek Him in the morning, and you shall find Him sustaining you through the day.” — Anonymous

Prayer:
Lord, in the quiet of the morning, help me to hear Your voice. Let Your lovingkindness fill my soul before the noise of life sets in. Teach me where to walk today, and give me a heart that trusts You fully. I lift my soul to You—guide me, keep me, and use me for Your glory. Amen.

Pagpapala ng Pagtitiwala

Pinagpala ang Nagtitiwala – Jeremias 17:7 Pinagpala ang Nagtitiwala “Mapalad ang tao na tumitiwala sa Panginoon, at ang pag-asa ay ang Panginoon.” – Jeremias 17:7 (ASND) Sa mundong puno ng pagbabago at kaguluhan, ang pagtitiwala sa Diyos ay tila ilaw sa madilim na daan. Sa Jeremias 17:7, ipinapahayag na ang tunay na pagpapala ay nasa mga taong tumitiwala sa Panginoon—hindi sa sarili nilang lakas o sa kayamanan ng mundo. Ang tiwala sa Diyos ay hindi simpleng pananalig lamang, kundi isang pamumuhay na nakasandig sa Kanyang kabutihan, karunungan, at tapat na pangako. Ang mga taong may ganitong pananampalataya ay hindi natitinag kahit dumaan sa tagtuyot ng buhay. Sila ay parang punong malapit sa ilog—may patuloy na suplay ng buhay, sigla, at pag-asa. Sa kabila ng mga pagsubok, nananatili silang luntian, mabunga, at matibay. Suportang Talata "Magtiwala ka sa Panginoo...

Spurgeon Morning and Evening - August 5

All Things for Good and The Call to Serve | Spurgeon Morning and Evening – August 5 All Things for Good and The Call to Serve Spurgeon Morning and Evening – August 5 Morning Devotion “We know that all things work together for good to them that love God.” — Romans 8:28 Upon some points a believer is absolutely sure. He knows, for instance, that God sits in the stern-sheets of the vessel when it rocks most. He believes that an invisible hand is always on the world’s tiller, and that wherever providence may drift, Jehovah steers it. That re-assuring knowledge prepares him for everything. He looks over the raging waters and sees the spirit of Jesus treading the billows, and he hears a voice saying, “It is I, be not afraid.” He knows too that God is always wise, and, knowing this, he is confident that there can be no accidents, no mistakes; that nothing can occur which ought not to arise. He can say, “If I should lose al...

The Light of the Lamb and the Overflow of Grace | Spurgeon Morning and Evening – August 3

The Light of the Lamb and the Overflow of Grace | Spurgeon Morning and Evening – August 3 The Light of the Lamb and the Overflow of Grace Spurgeon Morning and Evening – August 3 Morning Devotion “The Lamb is the light thereof.” — Revelation 21:23 Quietly contemplate the Lamb as the light of heaven. Light in Scripture is the emblem of joy. The joy of the saints in heaven is comprised in this: Jesus chose us, loved us, bought us, cleansed us, robed us, kept us, glorified us: we are here entirely through the Lord Jesus. Each one of these thoughts shall be to them like a cluster of the grapes of Eshcol. Light is also the cause of beauty. Nought of beauty is left when light is gone. Without light no radiance flashes from the sapphire, no peaceful ray proceedeth from the pearl; and thus all the beauty of the saints above comes from Jesus. As planets, they reflect the light of the Sun of Righteousness; they live as beams p...
