Capture Our Hearts

Lord, send forth Your angels with bows of love
Supply flaming arrows from Your arsenal above
Release them to earth striking targets of those
Making disciples of ones who once were foes

Our hearts must be changed to conform to Your ways
Set us on fire to love You all of our days
Then our desires will be to obey
Go where You lead, so we dare not stray

Give us hearts of wisdom so we understand
In the day of evil, we will be able to stand
Dying to self, frees us, to live for You
You have captured our hearts and made them all new

Proverbs 2:9–11 – “Then you will understand what is right and just and fair—every good path. 10 For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.”

Psalm 45

As I was praying for our nation this morning, a picture came in to my mind. I saw angels with bows of love shooting flaming arrows into the earth. I sensed the angels’ weapons were not for destruction but were meant for setting hearts on fire to love. One of the things I had been praying for in our nation, was for people’s hearts to be changed to love God and His ways. Unless that happens, we can change the laws of our land but if our hearts aren’t changed, then our nation is lost. Let us pray for God’s love to capture our hearts so we can love Him like He deserves.
