Hear My Prayer, O’ LORD

This prayer continues to be relevant in our lives today. I have grown to love the Psalms and to apply them in my life. Of course, we have the benefit of Yeshua acting as our mediator between us and God. However, God wants us to bring to Him our prayers and supplicaitons.

Psalm 143

Prayer for Deliverance and Guidance.

A Psalm of David.

     1Hear my prayer, O LORD,
Give ear to my supplications!
Answer me in Your faithfulness, in Your righteousness!

      2And do not enter into judgment with Your servant,
For in Your sight no man living is righteous.

      3For the enemy has persecuted my soul;
He has crushed my life to the ground;
He has made me dwell in dark places, like those who have long been dead.

      4Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me;
My heart is appalled within me.

      5I remember the days of old;
I meditate on all Your doings;
I muse on the work of Your hands.

      6I stretch out my hands to You;
My soul longs for You, as a parched land.

Selah.

      7Answer me quickly, O LORD, my spirit fails;
Do not hide Your face from me,
Or I will become like those who go down to the pit.

      8Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning;
For I trust in You;
Teach me the way in which I should walk;
For to You I lift up my soul.

      9Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies;
I take refuge in You.

      10Teach me to do Your will,
For You are my God;
Let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.

      11For the sake of Your name, O LORD, revive me.
In Your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.

      12And in Your lovingkindness, cut off my enemies
And destroy all those who afflict my soul,
For I am Your servant.

Shalom. May the grace and peace of our Lord, Yeshua, be with you.
