Today's prayer: May the LORD answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

 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 bible teaching: Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.

     Psalm 2

    1
    Psalm 2
    1
    Why do the nations conspire [1] and the peoples plot in vain?
    2
    The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together against the LORD and against his Anointed One. [2]
    3
    "Let us break their chains," they say, "and throw off their fetters."
    4
    The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.
    5
    Then he rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
    6
    "I have installed my King [3] on Zion, my holy hill."
    7
    I will proclaim the decree of the LORD: He said to me, "You are my Son [4] ; today I have become your Father. [5]
    8
    Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.
    9
    You will rule them with an iron scepter [6] ; you will dash them to pieces like pottery."
    10
    Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth.
    11
    Serve the LORD with fear and rejoice with trembling.
    12
    Kiss the Son, lest he be angry and you be destroyed in your way, for his wrath can flare up in a moment. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

    Today's bible teaching: May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you, if I do not consider Jerusalem my highest joy.

     Psalm 137

    1
    Psalm 137
    1
    By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept when we remembered Zion.
    2
    There on the poplars we hung our harps,
    3
    for there our captors asked us for songs, our tormentors demanded songs of joy; they said, "Sing us one of the songs of Zion!"
    4
    How can we sing the songs of the LORD while in a foreign land?
    5
    If I forget you, O Jerusalem, may my right hand forget [its skill].
    6
    May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you, if I do not consider Jerusalem my highest joy.
    7
    Remember, O LORD, what the Edomites did on the day Jerusalem fell. "Tear it down," they cried, "tear it down to its foundations!"
    8
    O Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, happy is he who repays you for what you have done to us--
    9
    he who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks.

            Today's bible teaching: Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain.

             Psalm 127

            1
            Psalm 127 A song of ascents. Of Solomon.
            1
            Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain.
            2
            In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat-- for he grants sleep to [1] those he loves.
            3
            Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him.
            4
            Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth.
            5
            Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate.

            Today's praises: Praise be to the LORD, who has not let us be torn by their teeth

             Psalm 124

            1
            Psalm 124 A song of ascents. Of David.
            1
            If the LORD had not been on our side-- let Israel say--
            2
            if the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us,
            3
            when their anger flared against us, they would have swallowed us alive;
            4
            the flood would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us,
            5
            the raging waters would have swept us away.
            6
            Praise be to the LORD, who has not let us be torn by their teeth.
            7
            We have escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.
            8
            Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
