Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
The Book of Psalms
(Psalm 43)
Psalm 43[a]
1 Vindicate me, my God,
and plead my cause
against an unfaithful nation.
Rescue me from those who are
deceitful and wicked.
2 You are God my stronghold.
Why have you rejected me?
Why must I go about mourning,
oppressed by the enemy?
3 Send me your light and your faithful care,
let them lead me;
let them bring me to your holy mountain,
to the place where you dwell.
4 Then I will go to the altar of God,
to God, my joy and my delight.
I will praise you with the lyre,
O God, my God.
5 Why, my soul, are you downcast?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God.

1. Psalm 43:1 In many Hebrew manuscripts Psalms 42 and 43 constitute one psalm.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
Just last night, something happened in my own family that I would like to share with you. My nephew, an incredible guitarist, worked his way up in a prominent chain restaurant from bus boy, to waiter, to line cook, and was promoted and trained to be the sous chef several months ago. From the moment he was promoted, he had ALL the work and responsibilities of the sous chef(supervising all the cooks, ordering food, managing the kitchen, developing menus, etc), WITHOUT the corresponding title or increase in salary. He kept asking his boss when this was going to take place and was put off. In the meantime anything that went wrong was blamed entirely on him, so he had all the stress and none of the benefits. I have been praying for him, because I have been in similar situations many times, where I have been treated unjustly on the job, and let it go on for months.
Heres the punch line:
Last night, my nephew announced that he has been offered the position of sous chef at our citys largest and most famous Rock Venue, with benefits, a $15,000 increase in salary, free tickets to all the awesome concerts and a chance to perhaps grow in his musical career as well.
Today's Psalm speaks of vindication. David suffered for YEARS at the hand of Saul his "boss". He even had two opportunities to kill Saul, but refrained from doing so. As both Jonathan and other advisors told Saul, David had never done anything to deserve this abuse, and had, in fact, been a loyal and good subject of the king. The only possible reason for Saul's abusive behavior was jealousy.
God, however, vindicated David. His Grace and Mercy prevailed and David became a great king, ruling for many years. This Psalm was originally attached to the one before it, but I like it better "detached", because sometimes, God's vindication does not come immediately. Perhaps that makes it even better when it DOES happen.
Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

Agreeing in Prayer. God directs our paths. . . His way.
Thanks for sharing. May your nephew continue to prosper on the job giving God the Glory. It was very appropriate of you to post the story on the other thread regarding a fellow Freeper’s need of prayer regarding a serious employment situation.

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM! And for the Preservation of the Valiant Israeli Nation!

- |
UDGE me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
2 For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? |
3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God

Indeed...the other thread was where I posted it first, because our FRiend's story was so similar to my nephew's. Then Psalm 43 came up today about vindication. Coincidence? I think not! :-)

What an uplifting report about your nephew. Thanks much for including it, LTOS.
Soon America will be vindicated. All the world’s kings and king makers will be forced to shut their mouths.
