Join us in today’s devotion and prayer-
Read the Psalm in your favorite version or in the following KJV and then join us in praying below:
A Psalm of David
54 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them.
Selah.
4 Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.
5 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.
6 I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O Lord; for it is good.
7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies. (KJV)
Our Father,
You have always stood behind us and have protected us from our enemies, you have always been our shield and our rock, the faithful builder and upholder of our lives.
Enemies have risen up against us once more, folks who do not know you or your Son, who are motivated by the evil one and personal gain. They distort the truth and gain support through whispered innuendos and put us down because of our faith and devotion to you.
Your Son taught us to pray for such but we need your help and the support of your Holy Spirit since the words are caught in our throats and we know not what to pray.
Rise up O God and bring us vindication through exposure of the truth. Let your light shine in the darkness and uncover the plans of the evil one against us. Let those who seek to do us harm fail and let the truth prevail.
Deliver us from our trouble and let us humbly rejoice over your triumph once more over the evil one and those who he has led to believe are our enemies.
In Jesus name, Amen.
