Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem

Proverbs 25

Saying 20

24  Do not envy the wicked,
    do not desire their company;

2  for their hearts plot violence,
    and their lips talk about making trouble.

Saying 21

3  By wisdom a house is built,
    and through understanding it is established;

4  through knowledge its rooms are filled
    with rare and beautiful treasures.

Saying 22

5  The wise prevail through great power,
    and those who have knowledge muster their strength.

6  Surely you need guidance to wage war,
    and victory is won through many advisers.

Saying 23

7  Wisdom is too high for fools;
    in the assembly at the gate they must not open their mouths.

Saying 24

8  Whoever plots evil
    will be known as a schemer.

9  The schemes of folly are sin,
    and people detest a mocker.

Saying 25

10  If you falter in a time of trouble,
    how small is your strength!

11  Rescue those being led away to death;
    hold back those staggering toward slaughter.

12  If you say, “But we knew nothing about this,”
    does not he who weighs the heart perceive it?
Does not he who guards your life know it?
    Will he not repay everyone according to what they have done?

Saying 26

13  Eat honey, my son, for it is good;
    honey from the comb is sweet to your taste.

14  Know also that wisdom is like honey for you:
    If you find it, there is a future hope for you,
    and your hope will not be cut off.

Saying 27

15  Do not lurk like a thief near the house of the righteous,
    do not plunder their dwelling place;

16  for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again,
    but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.

Saying 28

17  Do not gloat when your enemy falls;
    when they stumble, do not let your heart rejoice,

18  or the Lord will see and disapprove
    and turn his wrath away from them.

Saying 29

19  Do not fret because of evildoers
    or be envious of the wicked,

20  for the evildoer has no future hope,
    and the lamp of the wicked will be snuffed out.

Saying 30

21  Fear the Lord and the king, my son,
    and do not join with rebellious officials,

22  for those two will send sudden destruction on them,
    and who knows what calamities they can bring?

Further Sayings of the Wise

23 These also are sayings of the wise:
To show partiality in judging is not good:

24  Whoever says to the guilty, “You are innocent,”
    will be cursed by peoples and denounced by nations.

25  But it will go well with those who convict the guilty,
    and rich blessing will come on them.

26  An honest answer
    is like a kiss on the lips.

27  Put your outdoor work in order
    and get your fields ready;
    after that, build your house.

28  Do not testify against your neighbor without cause—
    would you use your lips to mislead?

29  Do not say, “I’ll do to them as they have done to me;
    I’ll pay them back for what they did.”

30  I went past the field of a sluggard,
    past the vineyard of someone who has no sense;

31  thorns had come up everywhere,
    the ground was covered with weeds,
    and the stone wall was in ruins.

32  I applied my heart to what I observed
    and learned a lesson from what I saw:

33  A little sleep, a little slumber,
    a little folding of the hands to rest—

34  and poverty will come on you like a thief
    and scarcity like an armed man.

Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem

Oh LORD, Our God,
How Excellent Is Your Name Over All The Earth!
How Mighty,
How Majestic,
and How Wonderful!
You Alone Are Worthy of Praise and Worship,
For You Alone Are the Most High,
Ancient of Days,
Our Rock and Our Redeemer,
Our Refuge and Our Strength!
You Are the Creator of All Things,
And Yet, Even In Your Omnipotence,
You Give us the Privilege of Calling Out To You,
"Abba, Father!"

Our Father in Heaven,
We Thank You For These Glorious Words of Wisdom,
Such Words of Comfort and Strength!
The Waters indeed Roar and are troubled,
The Truth is Indeed Our Shield and Our Buckler.
And YOU ARE The TRUTH.
And The Mountains Indeed Shake
with the Troubles of this World.
But YOU, Oh LORD, are Our Refuge and Our Fortress,
Our God, In Whom We Trust!
Though the Whole Earth seems to rage against us,
We Do Not Fear,
For You Are Lord Over All.

Father, We Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem,
According To Your Will and Promise.
We Pray That You Will Forgive The Sins
of Our Own Nation,
and Lead us all to Godly Repentance.
Create in Us Clean Hearts, Oh LORD,
and Renew a Right Spirit Within Us.

This we Pray Together,
As We Await Your Messiah,
Blessed Be He,
To Set Up His Kingdom,
And Make All Things Right.

Let all that has Been Concealed,
Be Revealed.

God Bless America.

Psalm 66

To the leader. A Song. A Psalm.

1 Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth;
2 sing the glory of his name;
give to him glorious praise.
3 Say to God, ‘How awesome are your deeds!
Because of your great power, your enemies cringe before you.
4 All the earth worships you;
they sing praises to you,
sing praises to your name.’
Selah

5 Come and see what God has done:
he is awesome in his deeds among mortals.
6 He turned the sea into dry land;
they passed through the river on foot.
There we rejoiced in him,
7 who rules by his might for ever,
whose eyes keep watch on the nations—
let the rebellious not exalt themselves.
Selah

8 Bless our God, O peoples,
let the sound of his praise be heard,
9 who has kept us among the living,
and has not let our feet slip.
10 For you, O God, have tested us;
you have tried us as silver is tried.
11 You brought us into the net;
you laid burdens on our backs;
12 you let people ride over our heads;
we went through fire and through water;
yet you have brought us out to a spacious place.*

13 I will come into your house with burnt-offerings;
I will pay you my vows,
14 those that my lips uttered
and my mouth promised when I was in trouble.
15 I will offer to you burnt-offerings of fatlings,
with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams;
I will make an offering of bulls and goats.
Selah

16 Come and hear, all you who fear God,
and I will tell what he has done for me.
17 I cried aloud to him,
and he was extolled with my tongue.
18 If I had cherished iniquity in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened.
19 But truly God has listened;
he has given heed to the words of my prayer.

20 Blessed be God,
because he has not rejected my prayer
or removed his steadfast love from me.

Something Weird just happened to my Computer. I had Proverbs 25 already formated and ready, and it printed out (Yesterday's Chapter) Proverbs 24 Again! And Proverbs 25 is carefully formatted for tomorrow. Rather than muddy things up any further, I will accept that the dates are now in synch with the Chapter numbers and leave it at that. Perhaps we were meant to take another look at Proverbs 24 after all.

Of particular interest is 24:19-20. here it is:

19 Do not fret because of evildoers
or be envious of the wicked,

20 for the evildoer has no future hope,
and the lamp of the wicked will be snuffed out.

When we see the prosperity of obviously wicked people, it can't help but rub us the wrong way. It can very easily lead us to resentment and bitterness. If THAT happens, then the wicked have truly won, because their actions have wounded our souls. Proverbs also tells us that our inabilty to control our own spirit makes us like a ruined city without walls.

The illustration that accompanies this post, of the bridge in Del Rio Texas, shows us what that looks like in Reality.

Our hearts and minds are like a precious sovereign nation with borders. Stray thoughts, hurts, corruption, lies, innuendo, and false information need to be filtered and "vetted" before they can enter in. Without control, these thoughts become an invasion and overwhelm our defenses.

That Solomon was a pretty smart guy!

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