Today's prayer: O LORD, save the king! Answer us when we call!

 Psalm 20

1
Psalm 20 For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1
May the LORD answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
2
May he send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion.
3
May he remember all your sacrifices and accept your burnt offerings. Selah
4
May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.
5
We will shout for joy when you are victorious and will lift up our banners in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your requests.
6
Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed; he answers him from his holy heaven with the saving power of his right hand.
7
Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
8
They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.
9
O LORD, save the king! Answer  us when we call!

            Today's bible teaching:All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed; they will turn back in sudden disgrace

             Psalm 6

            1
            Psalm 6 For the director of music. With stringed instruments. According to sheminith. [1] A psalm of David.
            1
            O LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath.
            2
            Be merciful to me, LORD, for I am faint; O LORD, heal me, for my bones are in agony.
            3
            My soul is in anguish. How long, O LORD, how long?
            4
            Turn, O LORD, and deliver me; save me because of your unfailing love.
            5
            No one remembers you when he is dead. Who praises you from the grave [2] ?
            6
            I am worn out from groaning; all night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.
            7
            My eyes grow weak with sorrow; they fail because of all my foes.
            8
            Away from me, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my weeping.
            9
            The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer.
            10
            All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed; they will turn back in sudden disgrace.

              1
              Psalm 3 A psalm of David. When he fled from his son Absalom.
              1
              O LORD, how many are my foes! How many rise up against me!
              2
              Many are saying of me, "God will not deliver him." Selah [1]
              3
              But you are a shield around me, O LORD; you bestow glory on me and lift [2] up my head.
              4
              To the LORD I cry aloud, and he answers me from his holy hill. Selah
              5
              I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.
              6
              I will not fear the tens of thousands drawn up against me on every side.
              7
              Arise, O LORD! Deliver me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked.
              8
              From the LORD comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people. Selah

                    Today's bible teaching: He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap

                     Psalm 113

                    1
                    Psalm 113
                    1
                    Praise the LORD. [1] Praise, O servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.
                    2
                    Let the name of the LORD be praised, both now and forevermore.
                    3
                    From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the LORD is to be praised.
                    4
                    The LORD is exalted over all the nations, his glory above the heavens.
                    5
                    Who is like the LORD our God, the One who sits enthroned on high,
                    6
                    who stoops down to look on the heavens and the earth?
                    7
                    He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap;
                    8
                    he seats them with princes, with the princes of their people.
                    9
                    He settles the barren woman in her home as a happy mother of children. Praise the LORD.

                    1
                    Psalm 100 A psalm. For giving thanks.

                    5
                    For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.

                    Today's bible teaching: O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD-- he is their help and shield

                     Psalm 115

                    1
                    Psalm 115
                    1
                    Not to us, O LORD, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness.
                    2
                    Why do the nations say, "Where is their God?"
                    3
                    Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him.
                    4
                    But their idols are silver and gold, made by the hands of men.
                    5
                    They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but they cannot see;
                    6
                    they have ears, but cannot hear, noses, but they cannot smell;
                    7
                    they have hands, but cannot feel, feet, but they cannot walk; nor can they utter a sound with their throats.
                    8
                    Those who make them will be like them, and so will all who trust in them.
                    9
                    O house of Israel, trust in the LORD-- he is their help and shield.
                    10
                    O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD-- he is their help and shield.
                    11
                    You who fear him, trust in the LORD-- he is their help and shield.
                    12
                    The LORD remembers us and will bless us: He will bless the house of Israel, he will bless the house of Aaron,
                    13
                    he will bless those who fear the LORD-- small and great alike.
                    14
                    May the LORD make you increase, both you and your children.
                    15
                    May you be blessed by the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
                    16
                    The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth he has given to man.
                    17
                    It is not the dead who praise the LORD, those who go down to silence;
                    18
                    it is we who extol the LORD, both now and forevermore. Praise the LORD.

                    Today's prayer: Save me, O LORD, from lying lips and from deceitful tongues

                     Psalm 120

                    1
                    Psalm 120 A song of ascents.
                    1
                    I call on the LORD in my distress, and he answers me.
                    2
                    Save me, O LORD, from lying lips and from deceitful tongues.
                    3
                    What will he do to you, and what more besides, O deceitful tongue?
                    4
                    He will punish you with a warrior's sharp arrows, with burning coals of the broom tree.
                    5
                    Woe to me that I dwell in Meshech, that I live among the tents of Kedar!
                    6
                    Too long have I lived among those who hate peace.
                    7
                    I am a man of peace; but when I speak, they are for war.

                        Today's bible teaching: For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish

                         Psalm 1

                        1
                        Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
                        2
                        But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.
                        3
                        He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
                        4
                        Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.
                        5
                        Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
                        6
                        For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

                            Today's praises: Exalt the LORD our God and worship at his holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy

                             Psalm 99

                            1
                            Psalm 99
                            1
                            The LORD reigns, let the nations tremble; he sits enthroned between the cherubim, let the earth shake.
                            2
                            Great is the LORD in Zion; he is exalted over all the nations.
                            3
                            Let them praise your great and awesome name-- he is holy.
                            4
                            The King is mighty, he loves justice-- you have established equity; in Jacob you have done what is just and right.
                            5
                            Exalt the LORD our God and worship at his footstool; he is holy.
                            6
                            Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel was among those who called on his name; they called on the LORD and he answered them.
                            7
                            He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them.
                            8
                            O LORD our God, you answered them; you were to Israel [1] a forgiving God, though you punished their misdeeds. [2]
                            9
                            Exalt the LORD our God and worship at his holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy.

                            Today's bible teaching:You hear, O LORD, the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry

                             Psalm 10

                            1
                            Psalm 10 
                            1
                            Why, O LORD, do you stand far off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
                            2
                            In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak, who are caught in the schemes he devises.
                            3
                            He boasts of the cravings of his heart; he blesses the greedy and reviles the LORD.
                            4
                            In his pride the wicked does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God.
                            5
                            His ways are always prosperous; he is haughty and your laws are far from him; he sneers at all his enemies.
                            6
                            He says to himself, "Nothing will shake me; I'll always be happy and never have trouble."
                            7
                            His mouth is full of curses and lies and threats; trouble and evil are under his tongue.
                            8
                            He lies in wait near the villages; from ambush he murders the innocent, watching in secret for his victims.
                            9
                            He lies in wait like a lion in cover; he lies in wait to catch the helpless; he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net.
                            10
                            His victims are crushed, they collapse; they fall under his strength.
                            11
                            He says to himself, "God has forgotten; he covers his face and never sees."
                            12
                            Arise, LORD! Lift up your hand, O God. Do not forget the helpless.
                            13
                            Why does the wicked man revile God? Why does he say to himself, "He won't call me to account"?
                            14
                            But you, O God, do see trouble and grief; you consider it to take it in hand. The victim commits himself to you; you are the helper of the fatherless.
                            15
                            Break the arm of the wicked and evil man; call him to account for his wickedness that would not be found out.
                            16
                            The LORD is King for ever and ever; the nations will perish from his land.
                            17
                            You hear, O LORD, the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,
                            18
                            defending the fatherless and the oppressed, in order that man, who is of the earth, may terrify no more.

                            Today's bible teaching: Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob

                             Psalm 114

                            1
                            Psalm 114
                            1
                            When Israel came out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
                            2
                            Judah became God's sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
                            3
                            The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back;
                            4
                            the mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
                            5
                            Why was it, O sea, that you fled, O Jordan, that you turned back,
                            6
                            you mountains, that you skipped like rams, you hills, like lambs?
                            7
                            Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
                            8
                            who turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water.

                                    1
                                    Psalm 113
                                    1
                                    Praise the LORD. [1] Praise, O servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.
                                    2
                                    Let the name of the LORD be praised, both now and forevermore.
                                    3
                                    From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the LORD is to be praised.
                                    4
                                    The LORD is exalted over all the nations, his glory above the heavens.
                                    5
                                    Who is like the LORD our God, the One who sits enthroned on high,
                                    6
                                    who stoops down to look on the heavens and the earth?
                                    7
                                    He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap;
                                    8
                                    he seats them with princes, with the princes of their people.
                                    9
                                    He settles the barren woman in her home as a happy mother of children. Praise the LORD.

                                      Today's bible teaching: For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

                                       Psalm 1

                                      1
                                      Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
                                      2
                                      But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.
                                      3
                                      He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
                                      4
                                      Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.
                                      5
                                      Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
                                      6
                                      For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
