Today's praises: Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!

Psalm 66
1
Psalm 66 For the director of music. A song. A psalm.
1
Shout with joy to God, all the earth!
2
Sing the glory of his name; make his praise glorious!
3
Say to God, "How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you.
4
All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing praise to your name." Selah
5
Come and see what God has done, how awesome his works in man's behalf!
6
He turned the sea into dry land, they passed through the waters on foot-- come, let us rejoice in him.
7
He rules forever by his power, his eyes watch the nations-- let not the rebellious rise up against him. Selah
8
Praise our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard;
9
he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping.
10
For you, O God, tested us; you refined us like silver.
11
You brought us into prison and laid burdens on our backs.
12
You let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance.
13
I will come to your temple with burnt offerings and fulfill my vows to you--
14
vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.
15
I will sacrifice fat animals to you and an offering of rams; I will offer bulls and goats. Selah
16
Come and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me.
17
I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue.
18
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened;
19
but God has surely listened and heard my voice in prayer.
20
Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!

Today's bible teaching: No one who practices deceit will dwell in God's house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in His presence.

Psalm 101
1
Psalm 101 Of David. A psalm.
1
I will sing of your love and justice; to you, O LORD, I will sing praise.
2
I will be careful to lead a blameless life-- when will you come to me? I will walk in my house with blameless heart.
3
I will set before my eyes no vile thing. The deeds of faithless men I hate; they will not cling to me.
4
Men of perverse heart shall be far from me; I will have nothing to do with evil.
5
Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, him will I put to silence; whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart, him will I not endure.
6
My eyes will be on the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me; he whose walk is blameless will minister to me.
7
No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence.
8
Every morning I will put to silence all the wicked in the land; I will cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.

Today's prayer: Look on me and answer, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death

Psalm 13
1
Psalm 13 For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1
How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
2
How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and every day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?
3
Look on me and answer, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death;
4
my enemy will say, "I have overcome him," and my foes will rejoice when I fall.
5
But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.
6
I will sing to the LORD, for he has been good to me.

4
indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5
The LORD watches over you-- the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
6
the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
7
The LORD will keep you from all harm-- he will watch over your life;
8
the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

      Today's prayer: Help, LORD, for the godly are no more; the faithful have vanished from among men.

      Psalm 12
      1
      Psalm 12 For the director of music. According to sheminith. [1] A psalm of David.
      1
      Help, LORD, for the godly are no more; the faithful have vanished from among men.
      2
      Everyone lies to his neighbor; their flattering lips speak with deception.
      3
      May the LORD cut off all flattering lips and every boastful tongue
      4
      that says, "We will triumph with our tongues; we own our lips [2] --who is our master?"
      5
      "Because of the oppression of the weak and the groaning of the needy, I will now arise," says the LORD. "I will protect them from those who malign them."
      6
      And the words of the LORD are flawless, like silver refined in a furnace of clay, purified seven times.
      7
      O LORD, you will keep us safe and protect us from such people forever.
      8
      The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

      1
      Ascribe to the LORD, O mighty ones, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

      7

      9
      The voice of the LORD twists the oaks [3] and strips the forests bare. And in his temple all cry, "Glory!"
      10
      The LORD sits [4] enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever.
      11
      The LORD gives strength to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace.
