God Delivers His People (June 7)
Backgrounder on Psalms 140-145:
Your enemies will either drive you
from God or drive you to God.
In David’s hour of need he found
a sure Refuge (Ps 140, Ps 142),
a Trustworthy Friend (Ps 141),
a listening Ear (Ps 143),
a strong Arm (Ps 144),
a merciful King (Ps 145);
and You Can Too !! Amen.
Lord, we Seek You for Deliverance:
I said to the Lord: You are my God;
Hear the voice of my supplications,
O God the Lord, the strength
of my salvation (Psalm 140:6-7).
I know the Lord will maintain
the cause of the afflicted,
and justice for the poor.
Surely the righteous shall
give thanks to Your name;
The upright shall dwell
in Your presence (v12-13).
Lord, we can Count On You:
O Lord, I am Calling on You.
Please hurry! Listen when I cry
to You for help! (Psalm 141:1).
Lord God Almighty, You are
the Strong Deliverer; You are
the fortress in and You are
the rock; and whoever is
in You will surely be saved.
I praise You for You are powerful.
I praise You for You are my deliverer.
I praise You for You are my Saviour.
Thank You for whispering time and
again Your promises of deliverance.
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
Lord & Strong Deliverer, financial,
emotional and physical attacks
can rob us of joy, hope and peace.
May You be at forefront of my mind
so I know with full assurance You
as my deliverer are stronger than
anything that comes against me.
Give me Lord the peace that comes
with trust; and the grace that comes
with hope. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Lord, I praise You that You are a God I Can Count On to keep me. Left to myself, I am not strong enough to walk in Your paths. Deliver me from choosing my own way instead of Yours. Strengthen my heart, and thank You for working within me according to Your purposes. Amen
