Psalm 119:37 as a Prayer for the Lost

“Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways” (Psalm 119:37).

This Psalm was written by a believer, and I pray it for myself, my saved family, and my church family.  I have also been using it as a prayer for the lost.

The lost need the Lord to grant them repentance that leads to life (Acts 11:18). They need their eyes turned to Christ (Isaiah 45:22). So, Psalm 119:37 has become a helpful tool for praying to that end. 

Father, turn my children (friends, neighbors, etc) from the worthless lies they now believe and give them life in Your ways. Give them life in the Lord Jesus who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Amen
