141. Conduct Amidst Trial. Dear Lord, I call to You, come to me now, hear my voice. May my prayer rise up like incense before You. I lift up my hands as the evening sacrifice. Guard my lips and heart so I will not be drawn to evil. Let me be corrected by a faithful person. I condemn what evil people do, please don't let me be friends with them. Everyone will know I was right when their rulers are thrown off a cliff. Their bones will lie there, broken like a freshly plowed field. My eyes stay on You, Lord, do not let me die. Keep me safe from the traps laid for me by evil people.
142. Prayer for Help in Trouble. All I can do is pray. I tell Him all my troubles. When I am weak, You are there to guide me. Traps have been hidden on my path by men I cannot see. No one cares for me, there is nowhere I can go. You, Dear Lord are my safe haven. Listen to me, I am desperate for Your help, my enemies are too strong for me. Let me live so I can praise You. When Your people see how You have blessed me, they will rush to my side.
143. Prayer of a Soul in Distress. Dear Lord, hear my prayer, but don't judge me because no one is innocent on this earth. I am terrified by my enemies who are crushing me into the dust. I feel like the dead, hopeless and numb. I remember the good times and the amazing things You've done. I am weak, I need Your help now, or I will die. Every morning send me Your love, I trust You. Show me where You want me to go, You lift my soul. I ask for Your guidance. Save me from my enemies, I come to You for safety. You are my God, show me what You want me to do. Let Your gentle Spirit guide me in the right path. Show Your love for me by destroying my enemies.
144. Prayer for Rescue and Prosperity. Praise to the Lord my rock and my fortress. You are my friend and You made me ruler of our people. What is man that You should care for him? We are fleeting like a shadow. Open the heavens, come down and touch the mountains, make them smoke. Scatter my enemies with arrows of lightning. Reach down and set me free. Save me from the lying foreigners who won't be honest. Then our sons will be healthy and our daughters strong and beautiful. Our crops will flourish and our livestock will increase. There will be no more fear of being taken captive. Blessed are the people whose God is the Lord.
145. The Goodness of the Lord. I will praise You, God, every day. You are worthy of praise and You are greater than anyone can understand. One generation will tell the next about You and the amazing things You've done. I will contemplate your wonderful works. We will joyfully celebrate Your awesome mercy and saving grace.
Tomorrow read Psalms 145:8-148:6
