I will praise the LORD!

Psalm 65_1-8 -365Reading: Psalm 55:1-8

For the director of music. With stringed instruments.
A maskil of David.

Listen to my prayer, O God,
do not ignore my plea;
hear me and answer me.
My thoughts trouble me and I am distraught
because of what my enemy is saying,
because of the threats of the wicked;
for they bring down suffering on me
and assail me in their anger.
My heart is in anguish within me;
    the terrors of death have fallen on me.
Fear and trembling have beset me;
    horror has overwhelmed me.
I said, “Oh, that I had the wings of a dove!
    I would fly away and be at rest.
I would flee far away
    and stay in the desert;
I would hurry to my place of shelter,
    far from the tempest and storm.” *

Petrie Island reflections — photo by David Kitz

Reading: Psalm 54

For the director of music. With stringed instruments.
A maskil of David. When the Ziphites had gone to Saul
and said, “Is not David hiding among us?”

Save me, O God, by your name;
    vindicate me by your might.
Hear my prayer, O God;
    listen to the words of my mouth.
Arrogant foes are attacking me;
ruthless people are trying to kill me—
people without regard for God.
Surely God is my help;
the Lord is the one who sustains me.
Let evil recoil on those who slander me;
    in your faithfulness destroy them.
I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you;
    I will praise your name, LORD, for it is good.
You have delivered me from all my troubles,
    and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes. *

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 31_6-8 -365

Reading: Psalm 31:6-8

LORD God,
thank you for your forgiveness.
Help me to practice it daily.
Give me a forgiving spirit
like your Son, Jesus,
who forgave eveven those who crucified him (Luke 23:34).
Amen.

— — —

 Do not repay anyone evil for evil.
Be careful to do what is right
in the eyes of everyone.
If it is possible,
as far as it depends on you,
live at peace with everyone.
Do not take revenge,
my dear friends,
but leave room for God’s wrath,
for it is written:
“It is mine to avenge;
I will repay,” says the Lord.
On the contrary:

“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this,
you will heap burning coals on his head” (Prov. 25:21-22).

Do not be overcome by evil,
but overcome evil with good.
(Romans 12:17-21), NIV)*

“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 30_6-12 -365

Reading: Psalm 30:6-12

LORD God,
“You turned my wailing into dancing;

When God Restores His People

I will praise the LORD!PXL_20240811_001606635.MP

Reading: Psalm 53

For the director of music. According to mahalath. A maskil of David.

The fool says in his heart,
    “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, and their ways are vile;
    there is no one who does good.
  God looks down from heaven
on all mankind
to see if there are any who understand,
any who seek God.
Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt;
there is no one who does good,
not even one.
They devour my people as though eating bread;
    they never call on God.
But there they are, overwhelmed with dread,
    where there was nothing to dread.
God scattered the bones of those who attacked you;
    you put them to shame, for God despised them.
Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
    When God restores his people,
    let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad! *

I will praise the LORD!

pxl_20240731_235929776

Reflected cloud in York River, Bancroft, ON

Reading: Psalm 52:5-9

Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin:
    He will snatch you up and pluck you from your tent;
    he will uproot you from the land of the living.
The righteous will see and fear;
    they will laugh at you, saying,
“Here now is the man
    who did not make God his stronghold
but trusted in his great wealth
    and grew strong by destroying others!”
But I am like an olive tree
    flourishing in the house of God;
I trust in God’s unfailing love
    for ever and ever.
For what you have done I will always praise you
    in the presence of your faithful people.
And I will hope in your name,
    for your name is good. *

“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 28b -365

Reading: Psalm 28:6-9

 LORD God,
help me to grasp the full extent of the victory
I have in you.
Now I ask you to hear my prayer,
“Save your people and bless your inheritance;
be their shepherd and carry them forever.”
Amen.

The sting of death is sin,
and the power of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God!
He gives us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore,
my dear brothers and sisters,
stand firm.
Let nothing move you.
Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord,
because you know
that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

by David Kitz.Psalm 27_4

Reading: Psalm 27:4-6

Lord Jesus,
I want to be ‘whiff’ you.
I want to live my life close to you now

Flee from sexual immorality.
All other sins a person commits are outside the body,
but whoever sins sexually,
sins against their own body.
Do you not know that your bodies
are temples of the Holy Spirit,
who is in you,
whom you have received from God?
You are not your own;
you were bought at a price.
Therefore honor God with your bodies.
(1 Corinthians 6:18-20), NIV)*

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 26_1-7 -365

Reading: Psalm 26:1-7

LORD God,
 examine my heart and my mind.
I want to grow in my knowledge of you
and my confidence in you.
Help me to have a pure heart
and mind before you.
I want to experience your presence in my life.
Amen.

David said to Saul,
“Let no one lose heart on account of this Philistine;
your servant will go and fight him.”

Saul replied,
“You are not able to go out against
this Philistine and fight him;
you are only a young man,
and he has been a warrior from his youth.”

But David said to Saul,
“Your servant has been keeping his father’s sheep.
When a lion or a bear came
and carried off a sheep from the flock,
 I went after it,
struck it and rescued the sheep from its mouth.
When it turned on me,
I seized it by its hair,
struck it and killed it.
Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear;
this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them,
because he has defied the armies of the living God.
The LORD who rescued me from the paw of the lion
and the paw of the bear
will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine.”
(1 Samuel 17:32-37), NIV)*
