Ps 51:9-17 return to the beginning

Psalm. 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Just a little background first; This is A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet went to him. David committed adultery. Then he thought to cover up his sin by deception, calling Uriah back from the battle under false pretense. And when that didn’t work, David again abused his authority and commanded his general to place Uriah on the front line of battle and then to withdraw – thus leaving Uriah to die at the hand of the enemy. And finally David takes Uriah’s wife and made Bathsheba his own.

David after being confronted turns back to God and cast himself on to the mercy of the God he had known all of His life. So this cry comes out of his heart, create in me a clean heart oh God and renew a steadfast spirit with in me.This same passage in the message paraphrase version says this; God, make a fresh start in me, shape a Genesis week from the chaos of my life.

Oh God cries David take me back to the beginning create a genesis in me. Take me back to the beginning for I have lost my way I have forgotten that you are the creator of all things and I am created, take me back oh God so that again I am reminded of your awesome power of your incredible love.

David wanted God to speak life into a dead heart.We need to go back to return to the beginning and remember that God gave us a new heart and with that new heart and life, he has spoken a word of destiny into our lives and remember that we are designed by the living God to fulfill to bring forth and to subdue the circumstances that surround our lives.

Listen what God created pleased him for God looked the bible says at what He created and god said it is good. David cries oh God speak good things into my life and into my heart things that only you can create.
Listen we are created by God and for God and for the Glory of God and the wonder of this is, God has not left us to our own devices but he speaks a created word in to us so we can go forth and achieve what has been purposed in our hearts and lives.
Gen. 1:28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.
The right to rule over all things was breathed as a word of promise into the very fabric of our beings and we can if we decide we can if we make the decision nothing will again rule over us for we have in our dna the power of the breathed word of God to have dominion or if you like to overcome and not be overcome.
Jesus said in rev 3:21 to him who overcomes I will grant to sit with me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down with my Father on His throne.
He who overcomes, that is our purpose to overcome and to be conformed to the image of Jesus.

God looks at you and in you and he says it is good; we have to allow the genesis experience that is in us to come forth and rule and reign just as we were designed in the first place.

Return to the beginning; God believes in you for we are made in his image and likeness and He has given you dominion because He believes in you, the key here is we have to start to believe in what God believes in; so many do not believe in what God has done in them.

David cried out oh God give me a genesis in my heart make me to know truth in my inner parts why, because we have got so far away from the truth, we have got so far away from the genesis experience.

Again beloved we are created by God and for God and for his glory, and our dna is from him which makes us very creative but he is the creator and if you take the creator away then we are left with nothing but evolution to worship, we need to return to the beginnings and discover our God afresh.
John 1:3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
If you take God out of the equation then you have to take away the breath of life out of the equation and what do you have left? Not even evolution can be sustained with out the breath of life. So if you take away the foundation what do you have left?

David cried out oh God create in me a clean heart; a heart with no other agenda, a heart that is centered on truth on what you are saying and doing, a heart that is consumed with what you are consumed with.

Listen God does not loose interest in what He has placed in our heart; He has not lost interest in what He has breathed into our soul, the word of life that he spoke into our genesis. Our cry should resonate as David, oh God shape this week in me the week of creation the week of the foundation of all things that I may know truth deep in my inner being.

Again let me say this, God has not lost interest in your destiny, in the seed of greatness that he has breathed into your life; we need to establish this truth in our hearts and thank Him and agree with him for the bible says where to agree on anything in the earth it shall be established.

If we will agree with what God has and is doing in our life then we will see these things manifest when the circumstances of life rise up to rob us. God has not lost interest in your destiny.
Phil. 1:6 being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.
David says God there is a darkness in my heart, there is a void in me come oh God and do what you did in the beginning and call forth life out of the void and the darkness and let my heart live.

We have to have faith in what God has created and what he has placed in us. Just because today we don’t feel like we are great or we may not measure up to the standard of greatness of the world, we must understand that greatness comes not from perfection, but from the ability to admit that you are wrong and then to go on and make the necessary adjustments to bring about the desired change.

All of us make mistakes. All of us take the wrong paths at times. Getting it wrong is what we humans do best. Putting it right is what believers do best.

David said that God desired that we would have truth in our inward parts and in those places God would have us to know wisdom for that to happen he need a clean a new heart.
Psa. 15:1-2 LORD, who may abide in Your tabernacle? Who may dwell in Your holy hill? He who walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart.
Paul prayed this prayer for the church at Ephesus,
Eph. 1:18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints.
Paul prays this so that the church can see the truth of what they do no believe. A clean heart makes way for truth to find root. David also said God restore to me or return to me the joy of your salvation, the interesting thing is it had to be there in the first place for it to be restored or returned.

What David was crying out is, "Remove every impediment to joyful certainty of your presence." And that's appropriate for us as well, because we have temptations, habits, feelings, bad thinking, blindness, ect. We can be children of God and not live as if we are.

We need God to work to take away the impediments so that we are joyful instead of grumpy, fearful, and self-serving so that we are willing rather than resistant, so that there is nothing I would rather do than what God wants me to do.David is asking that the truth overtake him and that every obstacle be done away with.

With out a clean heart there is no room for truth to grow and then without truth there is no joy, there is plenty of information not much revelation.
John 15:3 You are already clean because of the word, which I have spoken to you.
When there is no revelation this void is taken up with religion, which in turn deals a deathblow to relationship.
John 15:11 These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.
This is the year of the returns of God and much has been returned and there is much yet to be returned and we need to return to the beginnings and cry out to God for a genesis in our life, a fresh heart to all that pleases Him.
