A Psalm of David
26 Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the Lord; therefore I shall not slide.
2 Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
3 For thy loving kindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.
4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
5 I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
6 I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O Lord:
7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
8 Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honor dwelleth.
9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
11 But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
12 My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the Lord.
(KJV)
Our Father,
Let us live Lord in your presence and in the counsel of your Holy Spirit. Keep us O Lord away from those who plan evil and call it good; but inspire us to seek the company of fellow believers in your Son Jesus who are faithful travelers along the way.
Let your glory come down in our midst and let your Kingdom shine in our lives. Let the righteousness of your Son shine out of us as a beacon and example to others bringing hope and light to a world that has neither.
Protect us from the evil plans of the enemy who wants to destroy us and our families. Let your hedge of protection be around us and let your angels protect our children and grandchildren.
Let a new generation of believers rise up with healing and greater faithfulness than we have ever been able to achieve. Let us be thankful for our children and grandchildren and for the good testimonies they bear and for the good examples of your grace and love that they demonstrate daily in your name.
We bless you and praise you Lord in this life and will praise you for all eternity.
In Jesus name, Amen.
