Wednesday's Psalm ~ BLESSING THE NAME OF THE LORD

Psalm 7:17 (KJV) ~ I will praise the Lord according to His righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High.

Psalm 7:17 (AMP) ~ I will give to the Lord the thanks due to His rightness and justice, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High.

Words of Wisdom
Bless the name of the Most High for He is awesome and is worthy to be praised. His righteousness is above all and cannot be compared. We must get to a place in God, where we can praise and sing unto Him, giving Him a constant praise! It doesn't matter what the problem may be or what we may be going through, God still deserves the praise. I've found that in my lowest state, if I begin to sing unto the Lord and praise Him according to His righteousness, I soon find myself elevated in Spirit, Body and Mind. There are no excuses good enough for withholding praise to God. Remember, If we don't cry out the rocks will and that's one of the least things I want taking my place in praise unto God. I don't want rocks praising God in my stead, especially when I'm well able of doing so myself.

Quote:
~ God is going to get His due Praise, whether it be from man or rocks - but He prefers it from man! ~

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, I lift my voice in praise unto you for you are worthy of all the glory, honor and praise. Your righteousness is not to be compared, for you are righteousness! I lift my hands and I cry Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty! Father, continually teach me to be an instrument of praise that the rocks will not have to cry out in my stead - in your Son Jesus name I pray, AMEN!

Tuesday's Psalm ~ TRUSTING THAT HE WILL SAVE ME!

Psalm 6:4 (KJV) ~ Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies sake.

Psalm 6:4 (AMP) ~ Return (to my relief), O Lord, deliver my life; save me for the sake of your steadfast love and mercy.

Words of Wisdom
There comes a time that we must cry unto the Lord from deep within. When it seems as though there is no hope, know that you have a God that sits high and looks low and without any doubt will rescue you out of all your troubles. He hear the cries of the righteous and He's faithful and just to answer and save accordingly. Are you crying out to Him? Are you leaning and depending on God? Do you trust Him? Look deep within yourself and see what your answers are. If you answered no to any then you must go back and re-establish an intimate relationship with God because otherwise it would be useless to cry out to someone in whom you do not trust.

Quote:
~ Trusting, leaning, and depending on God will cause you to cry unto Him and seek Him daily! ~

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, help to to trust, lean and solely depend on you as I strive to be pleasing in your sight on a daily basis. I desire an intimate relationship with you so that I know without doubt that when I cry unto you, you hear me from your holy place. Where you lead me Father, I will follow, in your Son Jesus name I pray, AMEN!

Monday's Psalm ~ Keeping the Right Company

Psalm 5:5 (KJV) ~ The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hattest all workers of iniquity.

Psalm 5:5(AMP) ~ Boasters can have no standing in your sight; you abhor all evil doers.

Words of Wisdom
God has no dealings, neither do He socialize with the foolish, those who are wicked. He abhors all workers of iniquity, evil doers and those who are wicked. These are not welcomed in His company. As children of God we must be careful not to keep company with such a person(s), because it could easily taint who you are in Christ. Don't get caught in such a trap, no matter who the person may be. There comes a time when we must stand up for righteousness at all cost!

Quote:
~ Keeping company with evil doers will cause you to lose your place in and with God! ~

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, I ask that you please help me not to jeopardize my place in and with you. I cut loose anything and anyone that's contrary to your word and I choose to live upright in your sight, in your Son Jesus name I pray, AMEN!

THURSDAY'S PSALM ~ God Has no Pleasure in Wickedness

Psalm 5:4 (KJV) ~ For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.

Psalm 5:4 (AMP) ~ For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; neither will the evil (man) so much as dwell (temporarily) with you.

Words of Wisdom
We serve a God that takes no part in evil nor wickedness. He takes no pleasure in it and therefor despises every aspect of it. He that is evil and does wicked acts will not so much as dwell temporarily with our Heavenly Father. We must do away with all acts and appearances of evil in order to dwell with God and in order for Him to take pleasure in us, His creation. It's imperative that we avoid even the very appearance of evil. We as children of God must walk upright before Him/God or we are none of His!

Quote:
~ All wicked and evil-doers has no place with the Father ~

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, I ask that you please forgive me of all that I have said, thought and done that is against your will, cleanse me of all wicked and evil-doing and teach me to walk upright in your presence at all times in your Son Jesus name I pray, AMEN!

WEDNESDAY'S PSALM ~ Speak To My Heart

Psalm 5:3 (KJV) ~ My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

Psalm 5:3 (AMP) ~ In the morning you hear my voice, O Lord; in the morning I prepare (a prayer, a sacrifice) for you and watch and wait (for you to speak to my heart).

Words of Wisdom
There is nothing better than starting your day off with God, making sure that He's in your daily plans so that all will go well. Your morning may begin at 3am or maybe 6am but whatever the case may be, it should start out with prayer, a sacrifice of prayer that your voice will be the first God hears from you when He awakes you. I love how the (AMP version) says, "I will watch and wait for you to speak to my heart", that's where we mess up at times, we pray but fail to watch and wait for God's answer. As children of God we must remember that, He may not answer when we want Him to but He's always right on time for every aspect of our life and prayer!

Quote:
~ To start your day right, is to start it with God ~

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, as I prepare a prayer for you in the morning hour, I sit patiently and watch and wait for you to speak to my heart. As I start my day right with you, I ask that you orchestrated my day, order my steps, lead and guide me on the path that I am to take, that I may accomplish my assignments in a timely and godly manner, in your Son Jesus name I pray, AMEN!

TUESDAY'S PSALM ~ My King, My God

Psalm 5:2 (KJV) ~ Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.

Psalm 5:2 (AMP) ~ Hear the sound of my cry; my King and my God, for to you do I pray.

Words of Wisdom
We pray to no other God than the "One True & Living God!" No matter what the "Cry" maybe God is faithful and just to answer it. Not only is He our God but He's our King. Wow, just think about it, we're children of the Most High God and of a Royal Priesthood.

Quote:
~ I cry unto none other than the one and only God and King of Kings~

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, hearken unto my voice, for I cry unto none other and I pray only to you. Hear me when I call unto you, answer my plea as a Father would answer His child, In Jesus name I pray, AMEN!

MONDAY'S PSALM ~ Father Hear My Words

Psalm 5:1 (KJV) ~ Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation.

Psalm 5:1 (AMP) ~ Listen to my words, O Lord, give heed to my sighing and groaning.

Words of Wisdom
It's a blessed feeling to know without doubt that when you speak, the Lord hear your words and He then considers your sighing and groaning. We all have the same opportunity to speak/talk to the Lord but it depends on each individual whether or not God hears. God's ear is not too heavy that He cannot hear our petitions but our actions/sins can cause us to be tuned out. Be sure to stay in a place where your words are continually heard by God.

Quote:
~ God immediately recognizes the voice of His children, even when our words are just thoughts ~

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, I ask that you hear me when I speak and take heed to all my meditations, as you hear I ask that you answer each petition according to your will. I thank you and give you all the glory, honor and praise, in Jesus name I pray, AMEN!
