Psalm 51 is awesome. Imagine waking up to the dream of finding out that you are totally empty spiritually which is no wonder the psalmist says in verses 11 that "Cast me not away from thy presence and take not thy Holy spirit from me". when one is empty of the spirit of God who is the life moving force that gives energy for living, it's as good as being dead. In order words, what brings man sometimes to this state is sin.

Thank God also who has given us the spirit of repentance and reconciliation that the psalmist recognized his fault immediately just like some of us today and sincerely went down on his kneels thereby making one beautiful request of the life giving Spirit not to be taken away to avoid the enemy not having access to reproach him.

It is only GRACE that can make a man acknowledge his fault and ask for pardone. Another striking verse is 5, which shows that every man is originally conceived and born of sin which requires absolute cleansing through this same GRACE. That this Almighty God, He is indeed awesome. I honestly love the psalm and advise it should be prayed daily.
