Today's bible teaching: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.

 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.

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.

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: May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us

 Psalm 90

1

Psalm 90 A prayer of Moses the man of God.

1

Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations.

2

Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.

3

You turn men back to dust, saying, "Return to dust, O sons of men."

4

For a thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night.

5

You sweep men away in the sleep of death; they are like the new grass of the morning--

6

though in the morning it springs up new, by evening it is dry and withered.

7

We are consumed by your anger and terrified by your indignation.

8

You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.

9

All our days pass away under your wrath; we finish our years with a moan.

10

The length of our days is seventy years-- or eighty, if we have the strength; yet their span ^[1] is but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.

11

Who knows the power of your anger? For your wrath is as great as the fear that is due you.

12

Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

13

Relent, O LORD! How long will it be? Have compassion on your servants.

14

Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.

15

Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen trouble.

16

May your deeds be shown to your servants, your splendor to their children.

17

May the favor ^[2] of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish the work of our hands for us-- yes, establish the work of our hands.
