Today's bible teaching:Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers

 Psalm 1

1
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
2
But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.
3
He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
4
Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.
5
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6
For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

        Today's prayer: May the LORD grant all your requests

         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 praises: Sing praises to the LORD, enthroned in Zion; proclaim among the nations what he has done

         Psalm 9

        1
        Psalm 9 For the director of music. To [the tune of] "The Death of the Son." A psalm of David. [1]
        1
        I will praise you, O LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonders.
        2
        I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
        3
        My enemies turn back; they stumble and perish before you.
        4
        For you have upheld my right and my cause; you have sat on your throne, judging righteously.
        5
        You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked; you have blotted out their name for ever and ever.
        6
        Endless ruin has overtaken the enemy, you have uprooted their cities; even the memory of them has perished.
        7
        The LORD reigns forever; he has established his throne for judgment.
        8
        He will judge the world in righteousness; he will govern the peoples with justice.
        9
        The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
        10
        Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you.
        11
        Sing praises to the LORD, enthroned in Zion; proclaim among the nations what he has done.
        12
        For he who avenges blood remembers; he does not ignore the cry of the afflicted.
        13
        O LORD, see how my enemies persecute me! Have mercy and lift me up from the gates of death,
        14
        that I may declare your praises in the gates of the Daughter of Zion and there rejoice in your salvation.
        15
        The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug; their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.
        16
        The LORD is known by his justice; the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands. Higgaion. [2] Selah
        17
        The wicked return to the grave, [3] all the nations that forget God.
        18
        But the needy will not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the afflicted ever perish.
        19
        Arise, O LORD, let not man triumph; let the nations be judged in your presence.
        20
        Strike them with terror, O LORD; let the nations know they are but men. Selah
        1. Psalms 9 and 10 may have been originally a single acrostic poem, the stanzas of which begin with the successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet. In the Septuagint they constitute one psalm.

          1
          Psalm 128 A song of ascents.
          1

          4
          Thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD.
          5
          May the LORD bless you from Zion all the days of your life; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem,
          6

              Today's bible teaching: Not to us, O LORD, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness

               Psalm 115

              1
              Psalm 115
              1
              Not to us, O LORD, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness.
              2
              Why do the nations say, "Where is their God?"
              3
              Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him.
              4
              But their idols are silver and gold, made by the hands of men.
              5
              They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but they cannot see;
              6
              they have ears, but cannot hear, noses, but they cannot smell;
              7
              they have hands, but cannot feel, feet, but they cannot walk; nor can they utter a sound with their throats.
              8
              Those who make them will be like them, and so will all who trust in them.
              9
              O house of Israel, trust in the LORD-- he is their help and shield.
              10
              O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD-- he is their help and shield.
              11
              You who fear him, trust in the LORD-- he is their help and shield.
              12
              The LORD remembers us and will bless us: He will bless the house of Israel, he will bless the house of Aaron,
              13
              he will bless those who fear the LORD-- small and great alike.
              14
              May the LORD make you increase, both you and your children.
              15
              May you be blessed by the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
              16
              The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth he has given to man.
              17
              It is not the dead who praise the LORD, those who go down to silence;
              18
              it is we who extol the LORD, both now and forevermore. Praise the LORD.

                Today's bible teaching: The LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

                 Psalm 121

                1
                Psalm 121 A song of ascents.
                1
                I lift up my eyes to the hills-- where does my help come from?
                2
                My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
                3
                He will not let your foot slip-- he who watches over you will not slumber;
                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.
