A Prayer for Help

Oppose those who oppose me, Lord
And fight those who fight against me
Take your shield and armour
And come to my rescue
Lift up your spear and your axe
Against those who pursue me
Promise that you will save me

May those who try to kill me be defeated and disgraced
May those who plot against me be turned back and confused
May they be like straw blown by the winf
As the angel of the Lord pursues them
May their path be dark and slippery
While the angel of the Lord strikes them down

Without any reason they laid a trap for me
And dug a deep hole to catch me
But destruction will catch them before they know it
They will be caught in their own trap
And fall to their destruction

Then I will be glad because of the Lord
I will be happy because He saved me
With all my heart I will say to the Lord
''There is none like you.
You protect the weak from the strong,
The poor from the oppressor''

--------------------Psalms 35:1-10------------------

The Love of Wealth

Photo Credit: Dreamstime In today's materially focused world, many people want to have everything. They want to be rich, to have the latest car, to live in a huge classy house and many other things. People work hard day and night just to be able to get all these things. This ends up draining them and causing sleepless nights. They worry all the time about new projects to take up and the progress of the ones they are doing. The book of Ecclesiastes 5:10,12 talks says. "If you love money, you will never be satisfied. If you long to be rich, you will never get all you want. It is useless...Workers may or may not have enough to eat, but at least they can get a good night's sleep. The rich, however, have so much that they stay awake worrying." This does not mean that being rich is bad or a sin. Rather, God requires us to be satisfied with what we have and not complain all the time about what we are lacking. He wants us to appreciate what He has given us and use ...

A Prayer of Thanksgiving

I thank you Lord with all my heart, I sing praise to you before the gods. I face your holy temple, Bow down and praise your name, Because of your constant love and faithfulness, Because you have shown that your name and your commands are supreme. You answered me when I called to you, With your strength you strengthened me. Even though you are so high above, You care for the lowly, And the proud cannot hide from you. When I am sorrounded by troubles, You keep me safe. You oppose my angry enemies And save me by your power. You will do everything you have promised, Lord, your love is eternal. Complete the work that you have begun. Psalms 138
