The phrase “Oh my God!” has been stolen and trivialised by our culture.  It’s about time we stole it back!  Note how Nehemiah used it to ask God to listen, to see, to remember, to arise, and to save.

Remember me for this also, my God, and show mercy to me according to your great love. Neh. 13:22b (Also Neh. 5:19, 6:14, 13:14, 29, 31)

Consider this short phrase and find within it a meaningful expression of worship, dependence, relationship and hope.  Sometimes we have trouble articulating our prayers, maybe this powerful little phrase will help.
