Please read Psalm 36.

Meditate on verse 5.

Your lovingkindness, O LORD, extends to the heavens;

Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

David contrasted the ungodly with the LORD in this Psalm.  Some of the characteristics of an ungodly person are (vs. 1-4):

1.     Has no fear of God

2.     Flatters himself

3.     Speaks deceit and wickedness

4.     Plans wickedness upon his bed

5.     Sets himself on a path that is not good

6.     Does not despise evil

Some of God’s characteristics are (vs. 5-9):

1.     His lovingkindness extends to the heavens

2.     His faithfulness reaches to the skies

3.     His righteousness is like the mountains of God

4.     His judgments are like a great deep

5.     He preserves man and beast

6.     He has the fountain of life

Would the LORD describe you as Godly or ungodly? 

Repent of any ungodliness and pray Psalm 36:7-11 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!

________ and I take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.

Let us drink our fill of the abundance of Your house,

 and give us to drink of the river of Your delights.

 For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light. 

O continue Your lovingkindness to us; let us know You.

 Continue Your righteousness to us; make us upright in heart. 

Do not let the foot of pride come upon us,

and let not the hand of the wicked drive us away.

In Your name, Jesus~”
