Today's praises:Be exalted, O LORD, in your strength; we will sing and praise your might.

 Psalm 21

1
Psalm 21 For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1
O LORD, the king rejoices in your strength. How great is his joy in the victories you give!
2
You have granted him the desire of his heart and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah
3
You welcomed him with rich blessings and placed a crown of pure gold on his head.
4
He asked you for life, and you gave it to him-- length of days, for ever and ever.
5
Through the victories you gave, his glory is great; you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.
6
Surely you have granted him eternal blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence.
7
For the king trusts in the LORD; through the unfailing love of the Most High he will not be shaken.
8
Your hand will lay hold on all your enemies; your right hand will seize your foes.
9
At the time of your appearing you will make them like a fiery furnace. In his wrath the LORD will swallow them up, and his fire will consume them.
10
You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from mankind.
11
Though they plot evil against you and devise wicked schemes, they cannot succeed;
12
for you will make them turn their backs when you aim at them with drawn bow.
13
Be exalted, O LORD, in your strength; we will sing and praise your might.

      Today's prayer: May He send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion

       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 [1] us when we call!

      Today's prayer: Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt

       Psalm 123

      1
      Psalm 123 A song of ascents.
      1
      I lift up my eyes to you, to you whose throne is in heaven.
      2
      As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he shows us his mercy.
      3
      Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt.
      4
      We have endured much ridicule from the proud, much contempt from the arrogant.

          Today's prayer: Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies-- make straight your way before me.

           Psalm 5

          1
          Psalm 5 For the director of music. For flutes. A psalm of David.
          1
          Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my sighing.
          2
          Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray.
          3
          In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation.
          4
          You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell.
          5
          The arrogant cannot stand in your presence; you hate all who do wrong.
          6
          You destroy those who tell lies; bloodthirsty and deceitful men the LORD abhors.
          7
          But I, by your great mercy, will come into your house; in reverence will I bow down toward your holy temple.
          8
          Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies-- make straight your way before me.
          9
          Not a word from their mouth can be trusted; their heart is filled with destruction. Their throat is an open grave; with their tongue they speak deceit.
          10
          Declare them guilty, O God! Let their intrigues be their downfall. Banish them for their many sins, for they have rebelled against you.
          11
          But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
          12
          For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.

              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: He settles the barren woman in her home as a happy mother of children

                   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.

                  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.
