Did you ever hear a person pray this way:Lord, f would be natural for you to say that you have not heard that prayer, for it is not a common prayer. What would be the purpose of praying it? We all know we will die one day. But do we really? If we know we are going to die, then why do we live as though there will always be a tomorrow? King David, Israels king, prayed that prayer. Listen to his words: Show me, O Lord, my lifes end and the number of my days; let me know how fleeting is my life. You have made my days a mere handbreadth; the span of my years is as nothing before you. Each mans life is but a breath (Psalm 39:4-5). that I am going to die. There comes an end to our tomorrows. Death is no respecter of age. We pray for a long life, but some of the best days might be before us. After my brother-in-law died, his daughter wrote to us: Those days were packed with emotion. We stood in dads room and watched him say goodbye to each of his loved ones. He wanted to be sure that, as he left them for his heavenly home, he could rest knowing Jesus was their Savior. Pray with me, Lord, teach me that I am going to die. Dont let Satan and the world convince me that there is always a tomorrow.
