-Devotion and Prayer for the Day: Psalm 18:1-24

Join us in today’s prayer and devotion-

Read Psalm 18:1-24 and then join us in prayer:

Our Father,

You are our rock and fortress, our deliverer and God in whom we take refuge; 
our shield, and the horn of our salvation, our stronghold and the one above all who is  worthy to be praised.

You rescue us in our time of calamity and provide us in our time of need. Our enemy cannot stand in your presence and must bow to all of your orders in creation,

We stand before you and praise your name and the name of your Son Jesus. It is by His righteousness that we are saved and only by his sacrifice that we are able to claim to be your people. Yet you have allowed us to become part of your family and we receive blessings and honor in his name.

We praise your name today for all the goodness we have received in this life and for what is to come for all eternity.

You have called us forth to demonstrate your love in a world where hate seems to reign and to bring peace to those who only know division and strife. Reach forth your hand and make a way for us to once more shake this nation in the name of your Son Jesus and by your Holy Spirit let your Kingdom be demonstrated in the midst of your people.

Let us bring healing and miracles into neighborhoods and cities that the enemy controls. Let us bring your hope and love to those who only know hate, conflict, and despair. Let our cities be on fire with your Holy Spirit instead of the racial riots and political battles that the enemy plans to bring upon us.

Praise your name Lord and the name of your Son. Let your purposes for us be fulfilled and let the enemy be contained and rejected.

In Jesus name, Amen.
