wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?”

“Search Me” Prayer: Giving God FULL ACCESS to your heart!
PSALM 139:23-24 MSG
Investigate my life, O God, find out everything about me; crossexamine and test me, get a clear picture of what I’m about; see for
yourself whether I’ve done anything wrong—then guide me on the
road to eternal life.
You shift from: asking God to do something FOR ME to asking God
to do something IN ME.
3 Main Areas of the “Search Me” Prayer:
- Reveal my motives

PHILIPPIANS 2:3-8 NKJV
Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in
lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let
each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the
interests of others. Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ
Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be
equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of
a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found
in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient
to the point of death, even the death of the cross.
PSALM 51:4-6 MSG
You’re the One I’ve violated, and you’ve seen it all, seen the full
extent of my evil. You have all the facts before you; whatever you
decide about me is fair. I’ve been out of step with you for a long time,
in the wrong since before I was born. What you’re after is TRUTH
from the INSIDE OUT. ENTER ME, then; CONCEIVE A NEW, TRUE
LIFE.
