This is sometimes hard for me to do....do not fret...be still...wait on the LORD....refrain from anger. I have to turn off the tv, radio, and stop reading political news and trust God to do as He promises. I know He will make all things right, I just want it today.....
Psalm 37[a]
Of David.
1
Do not fret because of those who are evil
or be envious of those who do wrong;
2
for like the grass they will soon wither,
like green plants they will soon die away.
3
Trust in the Lord and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4
Take delight in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5
Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him and he will do this:
6
He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,
your vindication like the noonday sun.
7
Be still before the Lord
and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when people succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.
8
Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fretit leads only to evil.
9
For those who are evil will be destroyed,
but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.
10
A little while, and the wicked will be no more;
though you look for them, they will not be found.
11
But the meek will inherit the land
and enjoy peace and prosperity.
12
The wicked plot against the righteous
and gnash their teeth at them;
13
but the Lord laughs at the wicked,
for he knows their day is coming.
14
The wicked draw the sword
and bend the bow
to bring down the poor and needy,
to slay those whose ways are upright.
15
But their swords will pierce their own hearts,
and their bows will be broken.
16
Better the little that the righteous have
than the wealth of many wicked;
17
for the power of the wicked will be broken,
but the Lord upholds the righteous.
18
The blameless spend their days under the Lords care,
and their inheritance will endure forever.
19
In times of disaster they will not wither;
in days of famine they will enjoy plenty.
20
But the wicked will perish:
Though the Lords enemies are like the flowers of the field,
they will be consumed, they will go up in smoke.
21
The wicked borrow and do not repay,
but the righteous give generously;
22
those the Lord blesses will inherit the land,
but those he curses will be destroyed.
23
The Lord makes firm the steps
of the one who delights in him;
24
though he may stumble, he will not fall,
for the Lord upholds him with his hand.
25
I was young and now I am old,
yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken
or their children begging bread.
26
They are always generous and lend freely;
their children will be a blessing.[b]
27
Turn from evil and do good;
then you will dwell in the land forever.
28
For the Lord loves the just
and will not forsake his faithful ones.
Wrongdoers will be completely destroyed[c];
the offspring of the wicked will perish.
29
The righteous will inherit the land
and dwell in it forever.
30
The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom,
and their tongues speak what is just.
31
The law of their God is in their hearts;
their feet do not slip.
32
The wicked lie in wait for the righteous,
intent on putting them to death;
33
but the Lord will not leave them in the power of the wicked
or let them be condemned when brought to trial.
34
Hope in the Lord
and keep his way.
He will exalt you to inherit the land;
when the wicked are destroyed, you will see it.
35
I have seen a wicked and ruthless man
flourishing like a luxuriant native tree,
36
but he soon passed away and was no more;
though I looked for him, he could not be found.
37
Consider the blameless, observe the upright;
a future awaits those who seek peace.[d]
38
But all sinners will be destroyed;
there will be no future[e] for the wicked.
39
The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord;
he is their stronghold in time of trouble.
40
The Lord helps them and delivers them;
he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they take refuge in him.
Amen and God bless.
AMEN to your beautiful prayer.
Father,
We understand that the battle that were fighting is between those who believe we are beholden to You (a Higher Power, who is ultimately in charge) and those who believe that government is the highest power and is charged to make decisions for all the rest of us as they see fit.
Father, we ask that You give us victory in this battle.
We are but Davids with nothing but a few stones. Our stones are our prayers that we hurl at Goliath in the name of the Lord. We trust in Your Power and Might!
In Jesus Name Amen.
Amen to all today’s prayers. Please hear us, O Lord!!
Amen, UMCRevMom@aol.com
Agreeing with Scripture, song, and your prayer.
May the Good Lord protect and keep President Trump, Vice President Pence, their staff, their families, their friends from the relentless attacks of the godless.
May Providence guide the voters in the mid-terms to elect godly representatives that frustrate the plans of the wicked. And may the integrity of the elections be protected.
Likewise, may our borders be protected from invasion from the south. May congress and judges do the right thing to protect our citizens.
In Jesus Name
Amen
