Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem





The Book of Psalms



Psalm 141



Psalm 141

A psalm of David.

1 I call to you, Lord, come quickly to me;
    hear me when I call to you.
2 May my prayer be set before you like incense;
    may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice.

3 Set a guard over my mouth, Lord;
    keep watch over the door of my lips.
4 Do not let my heart be drawn to what is evil
    so that I take part in wicked deeds
along with those who are evildoers;
    do not let me eat their delicacies.

5 Let a righteous man strike me—that is a kindness;
    let him rebuke me—that is oil on my head.
My head will not refuse it,
    for my prayer will still be against the deeds of evildoers.

6 Their rulers will be thrown down from the cliffs,
    and the wicked will learn that my words were well spoken.
7 They will say, “As one plows and breaks up the earth,
    so our bones have been scattered at the mouth of the grave.”

8 But my eyes are fixed on you, Sovereign Lord;
    in you I take refuge—do not give me over to death.
9 Keep me safe from the traps set by evildoers,
    from the snares they have laid for me.
10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets,
    while I pass by in safety.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem





Oh LORD, Our God,
How Excellent Is Your Name Over All the Earth!
You Alone Are Worthy of Praise,
Honor, Glory and Worship,
For Your Alone Are The One True God!
Omnipotent,
Omniscient,
Omnipresent,
Holy, Righteous, and Just,
There is No One Like You!
Our Creator, and Creator of All That Is,
You Are The Great I AM,
And All Of Creation Sings of Your Glory!

1. LORD, I cry out to You;
Make haste to me!
Give ear to my voice when I cry out to You.
2. Let my prayer be set before You as incense,
The lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.


Abba Father, We Run To You For Refuge,
To Your Everlasting Arms.
You Are Our High Tower,
Our Refuge and Our Strength,
Our Ever-Present Help in Times of Trouble!
Let Our cries Rise to You amidst the tumult and noise of this age,
For You Are The God Who Sees All, and Hears All!

3. Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth;
Keep watch over the door of my lips.
4. Do not incline my heart to any evil thing,
To practice wicked works
With men who work iniquity;
And do not let me eat of their delicacies.


When we are confronted by the success of the wicked,
Keep us assured that it is only for a season.
When we see them dance in the streets at our misfortune,
Give us the quiet confidence that we are Your beloved.
When they mock at us,
And say "Where is Your God?",
Give Us The Words to Say That Lift Up Your Name,
And Give us the Victory.

5. Let the righteous strike me;
It shall be a kindness.
And let him rebuke me;
It shall be as excellent oil;
Let my head not refuse it.

For still my prayer is against the deeds of the wicked.
6. Their judges are overthrown by the sides of the cliff,
And they hear my words, for they are sweet.


As a Good Father chastises His Children,
You chastise us.
As a Fine Jeweler cleaves a diamond,
So You recreate us in Your Image Daily.

7. Our bones are scattered at the mouth of the grave,
As when one plows and breaks up the earth.

8. But my eyes are upon You, O GOD the Lord;
In You I take refuge;
Do not leave my soul destitute.
9. Keep me from the snares they have laid for me,
And from the traps of the workers of iniquity.
10. Let the wicked fall into their own nets,
While I escape safely.


We pray For The Peace of Jerusalem,
According to the Will and Promise of God.
Let the Schemes of the Wicked fall back upon them, Dear Father.
Show The World Your Glory, We Pray.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem






The name of the affliction is "Foot in Mouth Disease", and we have ALL suffered the effects of this at one time or another. The "disease" is a pun on a real disease (also known as Anthrax!) which affects whole herds of cattle and is devastating to any farmer or herdsman who has seen it in action. James does a great job describing the devastation that the "Tongue" can cause in Chapter 3 of his amazing Letter to the Early Church.

Just yesterday, I was in line for something, when an old man cut into the line in a very sneaky fashion. The woman in front of me started to yell at the guy, and it escalated quickly into a screaming match which embarrassed and humiliated everyone. This is a foolish example, yes, but when true evil takes place, ranting and raving about it is useless. By doing good, standing against evil, and with total reliance on God for Self-Control(which is a fruit of the Holy Spirit!) we can make things happen for Good.

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

God Bless America!

I love this psalm, specially verse 5, which is kind of weird and known for its difficulty in translation.

The one you posted is good. Alternatively, that no matter who it is (friend or foe), David is keen to judge righteously, and is concerned over anyone's calamities (having no respect of persons).

Say to Aaron and his sons, This is the way you shall bless the Israelites. Say to them, The Lord bless you and watch, guard, and keep you; The Lord make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you; The Lord lift up His [approving] countenance upon you and give you peace (tranquility of heart and life continually). And they shall put My name upon the Israelites, and I will bless them. (Numbers 6:23-27 AMP)

Speaking a blessing according to God’s will and command over the Israelites in the name of Jesus.

"Often, through no fault of our own, we find ourselves in a dark place. It could be the loss of a job, a friendship, a loved one, or even our own personal safety. David knows, that in times like these, there is only ONE place to turn...to the Lord."

Lord You knew the times we would be in before the earth's foundations. You preserved this Word so that we could boldly turn to You not just in times of trouble, but in times of blessing.

The soldier in the picture has one hand on the wall, the other on his weapon, a symbol that as we drink from You we also are to be alert to the enemy's devices.

And Father, may each of us in the Body have one another's backs, the one area of vulnerability. I would like to lift up the creator of this thread to You that she would be strengthened in her faith through Your love and care for her. Where the Psalm reads no one cares for our soul, we pray you would bring true and faithful fellowship her way. Meet all of her needs in Christ Jesus today. Cause blessings to spill over her in return to her one hundred times over, A-men.
