Psalm 139

O Lord, you have searched me and known me.

2You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from far away.

3You search out my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways.

4Even before a word is on my tongue, O Lord, you know it completely.

5You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me.

6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is so high that I cannot attain it.

7Where can I go from your spirit? Or where can I flee from your presence?

8If I ascend to heaven, you are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, you are there.

9If I take the wings of the morning and settle at the farthest limits of the sea,

10even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me fast.

11If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light around me become night,”

12even the darkness is not dark to you; the night is as bright as the day, for darkness is as light to you.

13For it was you who formed my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.

14I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; that I know very well.

15My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

16Your eyes beheld my unformed substance. In your book were written all the days that were formed for me, when none of them as yet existed.

17How weighty to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!

18I try to count them—they are more than the sand; I come to the end—I am still with you.

19O that you would kill the wicked, O God, and that the bloodthirsty would depart from me—

20those who speak of you maliciously, and lift themselves up against you for evil!

21Do I not hate those who hate you, O Lord? And do I not loathe those who rise up against you?

22I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them my enemies.

23Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my thoughts.

24See if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

Psalm 8

  O LORD, our Lord,
       how majestic is your name in all the earth!
       You have set your glory
       above the heavens.

  From the lips of children and infants
       you have ordained praise
       because of your enemies,
       to silence the foe and the avenger.

  When I consider your heavens,
      the work of your fingers,
       the moon and the stars,
       which you have set in place,

  what is man that you are mindful of him,
       the son of man that you care for him?

  You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
       and crowned him with glory and honor.

  You made him ruler over the works of your hands;
       you put everything under his feet:

  all flocks and herds,
       and the beasts of the field,

  the birds of the air,
       and the fish of the sea,
       all that swim the paths of the seas.

  O LORD, our Lord,
       how majestic is your name in all the earth!

Psalm 14

A Portrait of Sinners

The fool says in his heart,
"God does not exist."
They are corrupt; their actions are revolting.
There is no one who does good.
The Lord looks down from heaven on the human race
to see if there is one who is wise,
one who seeks God.

All have turned away;
all alike have become corrupt.
There is no one who does good,
not even one.

Will evildoers never understand?
They consume my people
as they consume bread;
they do not call on the Lord.

Then they will be filled with terror,
for God is with those who are righteous
You sinners frustrate the plans of the afflicted,
but the Lord is his refuge.

Oh, that Israel's deliverance would come from Zion!
When the Lord restores
His captive people,
Jacob will rejoice; Israel will be glad.

usa ni siya sa akong mga prayer if naa koy pangayuon sa Lord.


Linkback: https://tubagbohol.mikeligalig.com/index.php?topic=6705.0

you know lorenzo. i always start my prayer  for a rebound or confession of my known and unknown sins so that I will be back in fellowship with the Lord. I seldom pray, I am afriad the Lord would grant my wish/desire/etc...
if I would pray, it would come true. I was a visionary before I asked the Lord to get it out from me. Such gift i didn't like.

after the confession, I would be saying in visayan... "Salamat Ginoo sa imong gugma nga walay paglubad... sa imong grasya nga walay kahubsanan.....etc.."

sometimes, I would pray burning a cow manure. why? because the cow manure (the dried one)  is good for cleaning the environment. i don't have incense, so I choose dried cow manure...

Psalm 50

The mighty God, even the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined.
Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.
He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people.
Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself. Selah.
Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: I am God, even thy God.
I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offerings, to have been continually before me.
I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he goats out of thy folds.
For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine.
If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.
Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High:
And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?
Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee.
When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers.
Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother’s son.
These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.
Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I shew the salvation of God.

The Blessings of the Just

Hallelujah!

Happy are those who fear the Lord,
who greatly delight in God's commands.
Their descendants shall be mighty in the land, a generation upright and blessed.

Wealth and riches shall be in their homes;
their prosperity shall endure forever.
They shine through the darkness, a light for the upright;
they are gracious, merciful, and just.

All goes well for those gracious in lending,
who conduct their affairs with justice.
They shall never be shaken;
the just shall be remembered forever.
They shall not fear an ill report;
their hearts are steadfast, trusting the Lord.

Their hearts are tranquil, without fear,
till at last they look down on their foes.
Lavishly they give to the poor;
their prosperity shall endure forever;
their horn shall be exalted in honor.

The wicked shall be angry to see this;
they will gnash their teeth and waste away;
the desires of the wicked come to nothing.

Psalm 112

The Word of the Lord,
