Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem





The Book of Psalms



(Psalm 115)



Psalm 115

1 Not to us, Lord, not to us
    but to your name be the glory,
    because of your love and faithfulness.

2 Why do the nations say,
    “Where is their God?”
3 Our God is in heaven;
    he does whatever pleases him.
4 But their idols are silver and gold,
    made by human hands.
5 They have mouths, but cannot speak,
    eyes, but cannot see.
6 They have ears, but cannot hear,
    noses, but cannot smell.
7 They have hands, but cannot feel,
    feet, but cannot walk,
    nor can they utter a sound with their throats.
8 Those who make them will be like them,
    and so will all who trust in them.

9 All you Israelites, trust in the Lord—
    he is their help and shield.
10 House of Aaron, trust in the Lord—
    he is their help and shield.
11 You who fear him, trust in the Lord—
    he is their help and shield.

12 The Lord remembers us and will bless us:
    He will bless his people Israel,
    he will bless the house of Aaron,
13 he will bless those who fear the Lord—
    small and great alike.

14 May the Lord cause you to flourish,
    both you and your children.
15 May you be blessed by the Lord,
    the Maker of heaven and earth.

16 The highest heavens belong to the Lord,
    but the earth he has given to mankind.
17 It is not the dead who praise the Lord,
    those who go down to the place of silence;
18 it is we who extol the Lord,
    both now and forevermore.

Praise the Lord.[a]

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem





Our Father,
Who Art in Heaven,
Holy and Sanctified is Your Glorious Name Forever!
We Come Into Your Holy Presence To Worship You,
For You Alone Are Worthy,
You Alone Are LORD,
You Alone Are The One True God of The Universe!
Ancient of Days,
Rock of Ages,
LORD of Hosts,
Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent,
You Know the End from the Beginning,
And the Beginning from the End.
Because You ARE The Beginning and The End,
The Aleph~Tav
The Alpha and the Omega!
You Are The Author of Life,
Our Precious Creator,
You formed us in the secret places of our mother's womb,
You Designed Our DNA in All Its Beauty and Complexity and Uniqueness,
And have a perfect plan for each and every one of us.

1. Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us,
But to Your name give glory,
Because of Your mercy,
Because of Your truth.
2. Why should the Gentiles say,
“So where is their God?”


Father, We pray For Your Will To Be Made Manifest,
Over All The Earth,
As The Waters Cover the Sea,
So Obvious and Apparent,
That NOBODY DARE say,
"So, Where is their God?"

3. But our God is in heaven;
He does whatever He pleases.
4. Their idols are silver and gold,
The work of men’s hands.
5. They have mouths, but they do not speak; Eyes they have, but they do not see;
6. They have ears, but they do not hear;
Noses they have, but they do not smell;
7. They have hands, but they do not handle;
Feet they have, but they do not walk;
Nor do they mutter through their throat.
8. Those who make them are like them;
So is everyone who trusts in them.


Who are We, mere humans,
to make gods in our own image?
And yet we bow down to gods of silver and gold,
And even idols of human flesh.
Electronic idols beckon to us,
to distract us from YOU, Abba, Father!
And False Idols of the Earth, Which You Formed,
Worshiping the creature rather than the Creator,
Making goddesses of the planets and stars,
Which are just bits of rock and ice,
And the Work of Your Fingers!
Forgive us our great sin, Dear LORD!

9. O Israel, trust in the LORD;
He is their help and their shield.
10. O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD;
He is their help and their shield.
11. You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD;
He is their help and their shield.


Dear Father, Thank You for Making Manifest Your Holy Covenant With Israel,
By Bringing The Dispersed People Back To Your Land of Promise!
Thank You For Your Ancient Assurances of Victory
and Peace For Your People!

12. The LORD has been mindful of us;
He will bless us;
He will bless the house of Israel;
He will bless the house of Aaron.
13. He will bless those who fear the LORD,
Both small and great.


Abba Father, Thank You for Your Abundant Blessings!

14. May the LORD give you increase more and more,
You and your children.
15. May you be blessed by the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.


LORD, We Pray For the Peace Of Jerusalem,
According To Your Will and Promise!
We Pray for Our Own Leaders in America,
May They Speak Comfort to Jerusalem.
May We NOT be Numbered Among Israel's Enemies, God Forbid!
We Pray For The American People,
May They NOT be Deceived by the Media. May Their Eyes be Opened with regard to God's People Israel.

16. The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’s;
But the earth He has given to the children of men.
17. The dead do not praise the LORD,
Nor any who go down into silence.
18. But we will bless the LORD
From this time forth and forevermore.

Praise the LORD!


We Pray For the Leaders of Our Beloved USA,
May They Receive Wisdom from You to do the Right Thing.
We Pray For The Swift and Sure Coming of Messiah,
Blessed Is He,
To Establish His Kingdom,
and Make All Things Right.

Blessings To All Who Visit This Garden of Prayer.



Hallelujah and Amen

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem






We are on the other side of the "Hallelujah Candelabra", and the Hebrew "Hallelujah" is at the end of this Psalm instead of the opening. That fits in the the Chiastic Structure of not only the Song itself, but this entire section of the Psalter (There and back again!)

This song not only gives Praise to the One True God, but also mocks the futility and nonsense of idol-worship. Most of us don't carve little figures and pray to them, but there are other things that can become idols in our lives. In this age of instant communication and world-wide media, it is very easy to get caught in the net! (Oh my...unintended but very relevant pun!!!)

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

God Bless America!

Blessings To All Who Visit This Garden of Prayer.

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



_ OT unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake.

2 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God?

3 But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

5 They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:

6 They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:

7 They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.

8 They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them.

9 O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

11 Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

12 The LORD hath been mindful of us: he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.

13 He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.

14 The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.

15 Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.

16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD's: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.

17 The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.

18 But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the LORD.
