“Praise For The Lord’s Mercies”

Psalm 103 was an example of how David expressed his love for God Almighty for being a good God and for the deeds God commits in the lives of His people. The overall purpose of Psalm 103 is to give God praise for His grace, His love, and His forgiveness. Author: King David wrote this Psalm. Except possibly for King Josiah (see 2 Kings 22:1-2 ~Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem thirty-one years. His mother’s name was Jedidah daughter of Adaiah; she was from Bozkath. He did what was right in the eyes of the LORD and followed completely the ways of his father David, not turning aside to the right or to the left.and 2 Kings 23:25 ~Neither before nor after Josiah was there a king like him who turned to the Lord as he did—with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his strength, in accordance with all the Law of Moses.), King David was the most godly king of ancient Israel. Style of Psalm: Psalm 103 is a song of wonderful praise and thanksgiving to God for who He is and what He has done.

Psalm Chapter 103:1-22
Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgives all thine iniquities; who heals all thy diseases; Who redeems thy life from destruction; who crowns thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Who satisfies thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The LORD executes righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed. He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel. The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever. He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. Like as a father pities his children, so the LORD pities them that fear him. For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust. As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourish’s. For the wind passes over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more. But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children’s children; To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them. The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom rules over all. Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure. Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.

(Let’s Pray)
Father God, the joy and peace of knowing and trusting the You Lord Jesus Christ. You have performed wonders in my life and I praise the good work that You are doing in me. I thank You and praise You for the freedom I have found in You as You have gently led me along the path to recovery self. You are my God and have performed great and mighty wonders in me, and I thank You and praise Your holy name for ever and ever, How we bless, thank You and praise You heavenly Father for Your many benefits, for Your never-ending grace and unconditional love. May I sing of Your praise with my whole being inside and out, for You alone are worthy of all glory and honor, in Jesus Precious Name Amen!

“Prayer Of A Afflicted Man For Mercy On Himself and On Zion”

The superscription of Psalm 102 provides a precise definition of a lament: “A prayer of the afflicted when he is overwhelmed, and poured out his complaint before Jehovah.” Notice the nature, time, and focus of the lament, as defined in this “scribal commentary.” The nature is serious in that the psalmist is overwhelmed. Psalm 102 is said in times of community crisis. It is also recited as a prayer for a childless woman to give birth. In the Siddur Sfas Emes, this psalm is said as a prayer “for the well-being of an ill person”.
Psalm Chapter 102:1-28
Hear my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come unto thee. Hide not thy face from me in the day when I am in trouble; incline thine ear unto me: in the day when I call answer me speedily. For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an hearth. My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat my bread. By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin. I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert. I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top. Mine enemies reproach me all the day; and they that are mad against me are sworn against me. For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping, Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down. My days are like a shadow that declined; and I am withered like grass. But thou, O LORD, shalt endure for ever; and thy remembrance unto all generations. Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favor her, yea, the set time, is come. For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favor the dust thereof. So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth thy glory. When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory. He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer. This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD. For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth; To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death; To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem; When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD. He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days. I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations. Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands. They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed: But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end. The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established before thee.
Father God, I thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory for You are a wonderful God! For You alone have the power to save and the ability to take every problem of life and use it as a blessing to draw us closer into Your loving arms. I thank You and praise You for how You can make the strong and make them weak and You can take the really weak and bring them back stronger in this life to grow Your glory. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen!

Psalm 102:17

“The Psalmist’s Profession of Uprighteousness”

Psalm 101 is about the king ruling in his own country. Many Bible students think that it is what the king said when he became king. It was a promise that he made to God and his people. We do not know which king wrote the psalm. Psalm 101 is the 101st psalm from the Book of Psalms. The Latin name is Misericordiam et judicium. It is attributed to David, and provides warnings for the wicked, while explaining the benefits the righteous will reap.
Psalm Chapter 101:1-8
I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing. I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart. I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me. A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person. Whoso privily slandereth his neighbor, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer. Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me. He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight. I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.
{Prayer}

Father God, I am believing for unity, honesty and true justice in Your government! I am believing all to be faithful justified in leadership. I pray for all our leaders in authority that You will guide them in all ventures. I am believing for unity in family’s. I am believing for all those who have served in jail for doing wrong. That when they are out of jail that people will help them and You will guide them to do better with their life. Those who have harrassed felons will be seen for their wrongful convictions and be convicted of their treachery ways. I am believing blessings in my responsibility’s and that You will keep guiding me on the right path as I walk with You. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

{Power Verse}

Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

Psalm 101:6

“Really Talk To God”


Job 42:10 After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his fortunes and gave him twice as much as he had before.
Who is your friend. Those you see immediately. They are your neighbors. If you see a car wreck, a person stumbling, a person who is weak or a person going down the wrong path. Ask your Father in heaven to help them. Pray for those who even are doing good to your knowledge. You never know what someone is going through. From your heart to your mind you can pray through your sub-consign or pray out loud with them. Watch God work in their lives. Learning from praying people is one of the most unique experiences you will ever have. Being real with God. I have known a lot of people who have inspired and taught me. I want to see that in others. Seeing so much in this world hurts, hang-ups, pain, poverty and just family’s torn apart by revenge, trials and tribulation. I just want to keep asking God diversity would be manifested to His love, control and peace. That everyone be united in Christ and brought to their knees and pray for others in a good way. Wanting better for their family member and neighbor. We have to be people who want to pray instead of saying we are going to pray. The difference between saying you’re praying for someone and actually praying for someone is one simple action, talking to our Father. See you can be in a family situation whereas no one cares. Going here and there just living one day at a time for others, not really getting to know the real you and what you can do to carry the light for others and pass this on to God who loves you with a everlasting love. How long is it going to take God to free us from the unhealthy habit of thinking about ourselves? I know I can get to the time. I am tired of thinking about my self and we cannot reach and understand the depths of our inadequacy There is only one place that we are right with God, and it is with Jesus Christ. God don’t think of our inadequacy’s. He looks at our lives for all we are worth in His ministry of the inner life.

Let’s pray!

Dear Lord Jesus, I am filled with fear and anxiety as I have been left completely alone. I have no one in the world to care for me it seems, no one who is really interested in me, and I am so frightened to have to face the future all on my own. I do believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior, and I want to draw closer to You. I know from all that I learned as a child that my hope is in You alone. Lord, I have found a scripture in the book of Isaiah 51:12  {“I, yes I, am the one who comforts you. So why are you afraid of mere humans, who wither like the grass and disappear?” } Please Lord, will You do that for me? Lord, if this is Your will for me, bring some lovely people that will come alongside me and be a family to me. Help me to pray for others and watch as You work in their life as You work in mine. I pray that You would equip me to live my life and face the future in such a way that is honoring to You. Thank You, Lord, that You really do care for me. I pray that You may even use me to be a comfort to others who may also be facing a future alone. I pray for all Fathers out there, that they will have a awesome Father’s Day and those Fathers who don’t have their children close because of problems. I pray that there be a lot of reconciliation and forgiveness today. In Jesus’ Precious Name I Believe! Amen!

“All Men Exhorted To Praise God”

Psalm 100 is known as a psalm for thanksgiving, and exhortation of praise to God. This song of praise should be considered as a prophecy, and even used as a prayer, for the coming of that time when all people shall know that the Lord he is God and shall become his worshipers, and the sheep of his pasture. Psalm 100 is the only psalm with the title, “A Psalm of Thanksgiving.” The Hebrew word for thanksgiving literally means, confession ( Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament, ed. by R. Laird Harris [Moody Press], 1:365). In this case, it means to confess God’s character and His works.
Psalm Chapter 100:1-5
Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endures to all generations.


Father God, I thank You and praise You for music and that I can serve You with gladness. I thank You that You will be known to all generations. Thank You that we can say this Psalm 100 not only for Thanksgiving, but always to You. Thank You that Your gifts to us is Your righteousness, mercy, praise and every generation will know You. Thank You that we can praise You in the good times and bad. You are always worthy to be praised in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
{Power Verse}
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. Psalm 100:4

“Praise To The Lord For His Fidelity To Israel”

Psalm 99 is 99th psalm in the biblical Book of Psalms. The last of the set of Royal Psalms, Psalm 93 -99, praising God as the King of His people. In the Greek Septuagint version of the bible, and in its Latin translation in the Vulgate, this psalm is Psalm 98 in a slightly different numbering system. Psalm 99: The final psalm of the divine kingdom is composed of three stanzas, each followed by a call to worship (verses 3, 5, 9).Exaltation of the King’s Holiness (99:1-5) The first stanza describes the King’s greatness (verses 1-2); the second, His justice (verse 4); and the third, His forgiveness (verses 6-8).Examples of the King’s Holiness (99:6-9)
Psalm Chapter 99:1-9
The LORD reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved. The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people. Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy. The king’s strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob. Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy. Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them. He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them. Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions. Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

Father God, I thank You and praise You that You have made Yourself known through Your holy Scriptures, the indwelling Holy Spirit and the Person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ, my Lord and my Savior. I pray that the truths that I have read in Your Holy Word may be implanted so deeply within my soul, that nothing will shake me from the truth of Your Word or my walk with You this I ask in Jesus Precious Name, Amen.

{Power Verse}
Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

Psalm 99:9

“A Call To Praise The Lord For His Righteousness”

Psalm 98: The coming reign of the Lord on the earth is here celebrated as an event of great joy. Therefore, three groups are called upon to rejoice: God’s people (verses 1-3), the whole earth (verses 4-6), and all of nature (verses 7-9).Psalm 98 describes God’s redemption of Israel and the rejoicing that will ensue. It also features many expressions and instruments of music and song. According to the Midrash Tanchuma, Psalm 98 is the tenth and final song that the Jewish people will sing after the final redemption.


Psalm Chapter 98:1-9
O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory. The LORD hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen. He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise. Sing unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm. With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD, the King. Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together. Before the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.
Father God, thank You for Your music that can help to overcome the tuff stuff and praise You all the time in this life. Thank You for all that You see and hear before it gets to me. Thank You that You sort everything out and that You lead me down the path You want for me. I know it is all alright when I trust You. Keep reminding me of Your mercies that are always new each day. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen!

Psalm 98:2

“The Lord’s Power and Dominion”

Psalm 97 is another royal psalm. “Royal” means “as a king”. In Psalm 97 It tells us what will happen when everybody sees that God is king. That is why some Bible students say that this is a psalm about the end of the world. Psalm 97: This enthronement psalm reveals the Lord’s kingship (verses 1-6), and enunciates its effect on both the wicked (verse 7), and righteous (verses 8-12). Verses 1-12: The psalmist, though recognizing the Lord’s universal rule at the present (verse 9), anticipates a new coming of the Lord to judge the earth. Difference between Psalm 96 and Psalm 97? Bible students think that whoever wrote Psalm 96 also wrote Psalm 97. But Psalm 96 remembers what God has done. Psalm 97 looks to the future. It says (or prophesies) what God will do. Psalm 96 remembers that God brought his people home from a foreign country. He did this because he was a powerful king. Psalm 96:2 says “God has made us safe”.
Psalm Chapter 97:1-12
The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne. A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about. His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled. The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory. Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods. Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD. For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods. Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserves the souls of his saints; he delivered them out of the hand of the wicked. Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart. Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
{Prayer}
Father God, Your presence in our hearts are breath taking. I thank You and praise You that You are coming to us, to make a even-handed judgement in Your world. I thank You and praise You that all of humanity and all Your creatures will have new balance to reign with You. Only You can change the structure of Your people and this world. I thank You and praise You that we are all of Your image and plan. Only need to rest in Your peace, joy, goodness and Your love as we stand in awe of Your love for all of us, in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserved the souls of his saints; he delivered them out of the hand of the wicked. Psalm 97:10

“A Call To Worship The Lord The Righteous Judge”

Psalm 96 Explained. A call to praise God, O sing unto the Lord a new song. Psalm 96. Psalm 96: Psalms 96 and 99 are linked together with the expression “the Lord reigns”, except for Psalm 98 which has “the Lord, the King” (verse 6). As such, they conclude the body of the divine kingdom psalms (see also 47, 93), which speak of Messiah’s reign over all the earth. The psalm calls to praise God in music and dance, because he has chosen his people and helped them to victory.
Psalm Chapter 96:1-13
O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth. Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people. For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens. Honor and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength. Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts. O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth. Say among the heathen that the LORD reigns: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof. Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice. Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
Father God, Loving Father, I thank You and praise You that I am free to lift up my voice in praise and thanksgiving for all the wonders and blessings! You have done in my life. I believe that my life in thought, word and deed may be a song of praise to You, for the goodness of Your grace, for You alone are worthy to be honored, praised and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

“True Living Is Giving”

You ever talk to someone and say: Hey Sally! Would you like to go to church with me? She would say: I don’t think so the church would fall in! I’d say but you go to the grocery store, your not afraid of it caving in! Right? does it ever fall in. When you eat the food do you ever cave or crave more? A church don’t cave when someone walks through the door. When you walk in a church, you are walking into a new life that you get used to and wonder why you never walked through the door before. I got this from a friend from church who felt this way.
But it is true. If you are afraid of giving money, if this is what scares you then you really don’t know. Because a church works together for the good of everyone. People volunteer, work, donate and live to grow their new home in Christ! In a household it can not be run by one person! It can! But if there is several people in the household and no one helps that one person, that n=home becomes a disaster, bills don’t get paid, the yard looks like a jungle! The home just isn’t a home with no giving there is no real living.
(1 Timothy 4:9-14)
1 Timothy 4:9-10 {This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation. For therefore we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, specially of those that believe.}
(Who is Paul talking about? Lord sent Jesus to walk the earth in His image for our sins and also to know that The Lord loved us so much that He would die for our sins.

1 John 2:1-3 ” 1 John 2:1-3 (KJV)My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. “Trust”: Believers are saved in trust and live and serve in light of that trust of eternal life.)
1 Timothy 4:11 {These things command and teach.}
God Knew we would sin, He also knew we would learn to walk right with Him.
1 Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. {“Let no man despise thy youth”: Greek culture placed great value on age and experience. Since Timothy was in his thirties, still young by the standards of that culture, he would have to earn respect by being a godly example. Because he had been with Paul since a young teenage, Timothy had much experience to mature him, so that looking down on him because he was under 40 was inexcusable.}
I see children that have grown up, that I have been blessed to watch them grow as I have faithfully gone to church, other than being ill at times. But to see them baptize others in the church. God this is a joy that makes my heart smile. No words can express.

I love this song.
The song “Love Is Spoken Here” shows the strength of a mother’s prayer as seen by her child.

I see my mother kneeling with our family each day.
I hear the words she whispers as she bows her head to pray.
Her plea to the Father quiets all my fears,
And I am thankful love is spoken here.
(A mother’s prayer is that her children will grow up and be Christ to others)
1 Timothy 4:13 Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
Christianity is truth, learning to walk right to what actually exists in the universe. Upon these positions is based the Christian concept of academic freedom. All truth is God’s truth and if and if Christianity is true to what is actually there, then the Christian can pursue truth without the fear of conclusive denial.
1 Timothy 4:14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery {a body of Church elders and ministers, especially (in Presbyterian Churches) an administrative body (court) representing all the local congregations of a district}.
