Psalms are coming!

SWBC Shared Purpose

Father,
We pray for our brothers and sisters facing persecution for their faith in you.
We pray that by the power of the Holy Spirit, they will meet whatever this week holds with faith, hope, and love.
Keep them firm in their commitment to Jesus.
Give them a joyful confidence in you that will be a powerful testimony to their persecutors.
Comfort the families of those who are suffering.
Protect those who are vulnerable.
Guide fellow Christians to their aid.
Show us how we can help them.
Amen.
Psalm 46:1-3: God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling.
1 Peter 4:16: Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name.

From Southwest Bible

Cal Axtell —

This is the song I think of when I read Psalm 103:

If you have something you would like to say, share, add to the prayer app, let me know!

Psalms

Psalm 43 (Listen)

Send Out Your Light and Your Truth

43:1   Vindicate me, O God, and defend my cause
    against an ungodly people,
  from the deceitful and unjust man
    deliver me!
2   For you are the God in whom I take refuge;
    why have you rejected me?
  Why do I go about mourning
    because of the oppression of the enemy?
3   Send out your light and your truth;
    let them lead me;
  let them bring me to your holy hill
    and to your dwelling!
4   Then I will go to the altar of God,
    to God my exceeding joy,
  and I will praise you with the lyre,
    O God, my God.
5   Why are you cast down, O my soul,
    and why are you in turmoil within me?
  Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
    my salvation and my God.

(ESV)
