Read Psalm Chapter 76
Key Verses: Psalm 76:11-12 …
“A Psalm of Asaph”
1 God is honored in Judah;
His name is great in Israel.
2 Jerusalem is where He lives;
Mount Zion is His home.
3 There He has broken the fiery arrows of the enemy,
the shields and swords and weapons of war.
4 You are glorious and more majestic
than the everlasting mountains.
5 Our boldest enemies have been plundered.
They lie before us in the sleep of death.
No warrior could lift a hand against us.
6 At the blast of Your breath, O God of Jacob,
their horses and chariots lay still.
7 No wonder You are greatly feared!
Who can stand before You when Your anger explodes?
8 From heaven You sentenced your enemies;
the earth trembled and stood silent before you.
9 You stand up to judge those who do evil, O God,
and to rescue the oppressed of the earth.
10 Human defiance only enhances Your glory,
for You use it as a weapon.
11 Make vows to the Lord your God and keep them.
Let everyone bring tribute to the Awesome One.
12 For He breaks the pride of princes,
and the kings of the earth fear Him.
PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, as I come to You in prayer today, I pray that any defiance to Your Word or any pride that has settled in my heart would be broken. As I come to you now, I want my heart to be clear of anything that offends You. My vow to You, my Father, is to worship and honor only You. To serve You with my whole heart, mind and soul. As I present my life to You, Lord, my prayer is that I can show those around me a life that does not cause oppression, a life that does not follow the way towards destruction and judgment. Instead, my life will be a tribute to the Awesome One, the God of Heaven and I will stand in praise to You. Amen.
