Have you been persistently unfaithful to God? When we are persistently unfaithful to God we keep idols in our hearts and continuously follow the desires of our hearts that causes us to stumble. But, God is merciful.

Lord, we come to you this morning, and we lay before you all the idols that we keep in our hearts which makes us estranged from you, we lay down all the evil desires of our hearts which causes us to stumble, we will no more profane your name, we will instead do good works which will bring honor and glory to your name. Lord, we are blessed, in that though we have sinned you will mercy and pardon us. Lord, this day, we come to you with repentant hearts, we will turn away from our idols, turn away from all abominations which grieves your Holy Spirit and call upon you, and you promised that you will answer us and cause us to no more stray away from you, that we will no longer be persistently unfaithful to you, that we will be your people and you our God forever. Amen!
