🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem🇮🇱 (9/19/26)[Prayer]

Personalities

Psalm 27

Of David.

1  The Lord is my light and my salvation—
whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life—

    of whom shall I be afraid?

2  When the wicked advance against me

    to devour[a] me,

it is my enemies and my foes

    who will stumble and fall.

3  Though an army besiege me,

    my heart will not fear;

though war break out against me,

    even then I will be confident.

4  One thing I ask from the Lord,

    this only do I seek:

that I may dwell in the house of the Lord

    all the days of my life,

to gaze on the beauty of the Lord

    and to seek him in his temple.

5  For in the day of trouble

    he will keep me safe in his dwelling;

he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent
and set me high upon a rock.

6  Then my head will be exalted

    above the enemies who surround me;

at his sacred tent I will sacrifice with shouts of joy;

    I will sing and make music to the Lord.

7  Hear my voice when I call, Lord;

    be merciful to me and answer me.

8  My heart says of you, “Seek his face!”

Your face, Lord, I will seek.

9  Do not hide your face from me,

    do not turn your servant away in anger;

    you have been my helper.

Do not reject me or forsake me,

    God my Savior.

10  Though my father and mother forsake me,

    the Lord will receive me.

11  Teach me your way, Lord;

    lead me in a straight path

    because of my oppressors.

12  Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes,

    for false witnesses rise up against me,

    spouting malicious accusations.

13  I remain confident of this:

    I will see the goodness of the Lord

    in the land of the living.

14  Wait for the Lord;

    be strong and take heart

    and wait for the Lord.

Personalities

Psalm 26

Of David.

1  Vindicate me, Lord,
for I have led a blameless life;
have trusted in the Lord
and have not faltered.

2  Test me, Lord, and try me,
examine my heart and my mind;

3  for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love
and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.

4  I do not sit with the deceitful,
nor do I associate with hypocrites.

5  I abhor the assembly of evildoers
and refuse to sit with the wicked.

6  I wash my hands in innocence,
and go about your altar, Lord,

7  proclaiming aloud your praise
and telling of all your wonderful deeds.

8  Lord, I love the house where you live,
the place where your glory dwells.

9  Do not take away my soul along with sinners,
my life with those who are bloodthirsty,

10  in whose hands are wicked schemes,
whose right hands are full of bribes.

11  I lead a blameless life;
deliver me and be merciful to me.

12  My feet stand on level ground;
in the great congregation I will praise the Lord.

There are so many Descriptive Names of God in this Psalm, that it gives us a look at HIS Personality more even than David's. My Light, My Salvation, My Stronghold; these are all Names that give David confidence and strength in the face of adversity, as long as his dependence is totally on God, and not on his own devices.

One of the Friends of this Thread posted yesterday that David's 26th Psalm was "braggadocious", and I tend to agree! As I stated in my commentary, I cringe a bit when reading David's protestations of innocence, when we know from his history that he was "Pure As The Driven SLUSH" (as my dear Mom used to say!).

I floated the idea that perhaps David's Prayer was prophetic, foreshadowing the moment when the Messiah would take all of our sins upon Himself at Calvary. From that moment, He became Our Advocate in Heaven, and Our Great High Priest, Who, though tempted in all things as we are, is Without Sin. It was just a thought.

Thank God, Psalm 26 is followed by Psalm 27! In it is our answer. David's braggadocio is immediately subjugated to his dependence on God.

God is his Light, his Salvation, and the Stronghold of his Life. He is his Helper, and his Savior, his Shelter, and his Hiding Place.

He is also David's Righteousness. If Psalm 26 is a brag, Psalm 27 is the comeuppance. If Psalm 26 is the question, Psalm 27 is the Answer. If Psalm 26 gives you the cringes, Psalm 27 lifts the veil and gives you courage.

While Self-Confidence may be an illusion, Total Dependence On God Gives Us the Real Confidence that results in Victory.

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

I love the fact the the bible does not cover up the blemishes. We all have our failures as Christians, some more than others, but as long as we are honest about them and asking the Lord to help, he will.

Psalm 91

1 You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,*
2 will say to the Lord, ‘My refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.’
3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence;
4 he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
5 You will not fear the terror of the night,
or the arrow that flies by day,
6 or the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
or the destruction that wastes at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the Lord your refuge,*
the Most High your dwelling-place,
10 no evil shall befall you,
no scourge come near your tent.

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the adder,
the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.

14 Those who love me, I will deliver;
I will protect those who know my name.
15 When they call to me, I will answer them;
I will be with them in trouble,
I will rescue them and honour them.
16 With long life I will satisfy them,
and show them my salvation.
