FATHER GOD,

LORD, You are the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. You show no favorites. What You do for one, You will surely do for another. In these perilous times we put our trust in You. Hear us as we echo the prayer, praises, and declarations of Your servant David. Answer when we call.

(PSALM 17) You our LIGHT and our SALVATION—so why should we be afraid? You are our FORTRESS, protecting us from danger, so why should we tremble?

 When evil people come to devour us, when our enemies and foes attack us, they will stumble and fall. Though a mighty army surrounds us, our hearts will not be afraid. Even if we are attacked, we will remain confident.

The one thing we ask of You, LORD—the thing we seek most—is to live with You all the days of our lives, delighting in Your perfections and meditating in Your Temple.  For You will conceal us there when troubles come; You will hide us in Your sanctuary. You will place us out of reach on a high rock.  Then we will hold our heads high above our enemies who surround us.

At Your sanctuary we will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy, singing and praising the Lord with music.  Hear us as we pray, O LORD. Be merciful and answer us!  Our hearts have heard You say, “Come and talk with Me.” And our hearts respond, “LORD, we am coming.”

Do not turn Your back on us. Do not reject us in anger. You have always been our HELPER. Don’t leave us now; don’t abandon us, O GOD of our salvation! Even if our fathers and mothers abandon us, You, LORD, will hold us close.

Teach us how to live, O LORD. Lead us along the right path, for our enemies are waiting for us.  Do not let us fall into their hands. For they accuse us of things we’ve never done; with every breath they threaten us with violence. Yet we are confident we will see Your goodness while we are here in the land of the living.

We wait patiently for You, LORD. Let us be brave and courageous and wait patiently for You.

In JESUS' Name we pray. Amen.

The correct reference for today’s prayer is PSALM 27.

Psalm 4

To the leader: with stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

1 Answer me when I call, O God of my right!
You gave me room when I was in distress.
Be gracious to me, and hear my prayer.

2 How long, you people, shall my honour suffer shame?
How long will you love vain words, and seek after lies?
Selah
3 But know that the Lord has set apart the faithful for himself;
the Lord hears when I call to him.

4 When you are disturbed,* do not sin;
ponder it on your beds, and be silent.
Selah
5 Offer right sacrifices,
and put your trust in the Lord.

6 There are many who say, ‘O that we might see some good!
Let the light of your face shine on us, O Lord!’
7 You have put gladness in my heart
more than when their grain and wine abound.

8 I will both lie down and sleep in peace;
for you alone, O Lord, make me lie down in safety.

Amen. We agree with His Word.

Father, as we see Your return coming closer and closer, we cry, “I believe. Help thou my unbelief”. where the salvation of our friends and family are concerned. We entrust all those for whom we have prayed to Your mercy and power and grace. We make a quality decision to not be anxious for anything, but by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, we let our requests be known. Thank You for this place of prayer and all the precious souls You have gathered here. I am so grateful for each one. Amen.
