Prayer based on Psalms 7:12. Themes: Repentance, Consequences, Judgment

Dear Lord, please help us to always repent and turn away from our sins. We know that if we don’t, we will only be sharpening our own swords and bending our own bows. Please guide us towards righteousness and help us to always seek forgiveness and redemption. Amen.

Verse: If a man doesn’t repent, he will sharpen his sword; he has bent and strung his bow.
Psalms 7:12

This is a Command. The verse is a warning that if a man does not repent, he will face consequences, specifically that his enemies will be prepared to attack him.
