Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.

Therefore, they must eat the bitter fruit of living their own way,choking on their own schemes.32For simpletons turn away from me—to death.Fools are destroyed by their own complacency.33But all who listen to me will live in peace, untroubled by fear of harm.”

Lord God my Father,

Keep me close, correct my actions quickly to I can stay on your task, protect me from distraction and in your plan.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Help him judge your people in the right way;let the poor always be treated fairly.

Unless the Lord builds a house,the work of the builders is wasted.Unless the Lord protects a city,guarding it with sentries will do no good.2It is useless for you to work so hardfrom early morning until late at night,anxiously working for food to eat;for God gives rest to his loved ones.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to keep my peace in your design and to worship you in all that I do.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

At that moment a thick cloud filled the Temple of the Lord. 14The priests could not continue their service because of the cloud, for the glorious presence of the Lord filled the Temple of God.

Nevertheless, listen to my prayer and my plea, O Lord my God. Hear the cry and the prayer that your servant is making to you today.

Forgive your people who have sinned against you. Forgive all the offenses they have committed against you. Make their captors merciful to them,

 Forgive your people who have sinned against you.40“O my God, may your eyes be open and your ears attentive to all the prayers made to you in this place.

Come back, we beg you, O God of Heaven’s Armies. Look down from heaven and see our plight. Take care of this grapevine15that you yourself have planted, this son you have raised for yourself.16For we are chopped up and burned by our enemies.

For God says, “I will break the strength of the wicked,but I will increase the power of the godly.”

Your road led through the sea, your pathway through the mighty waters—

So each generation should set its hope anew on God,not forgetting his glorious miraclesand obeying his commands.8Then they will not be like their ancestors—stubborn, rebellious, and unfaithful,refusing to give their hearts to God.

Oh, how often they rebelled against him in the wildernessand grieved his heart in that dry wasteland.

Lord God my Father,

Open my heart to truly hear your desire, quiet my spirit so I can only hear you over the noise. Protect my thoughts so they will rest with you, don’t let deceit reach me and turn my heart from you.

Amen

Don’t let the downtrodden be humiliated again.Instead, let the poor and needy praise your name.

Lord God my Father,

Keep me close, Help me to keep my focus where you want it. Strengthen my heart to not be broken by evil. I wish to see you in everything.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Let each generation tell its children of your mighty acts;let them proclaim your power.5I will meditate on your majestic, glorious splendorand your wonderful miracles.6Your awe-inspiring deeds will be on every tongue;

Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne.Unfailing love and truth walk before you as attendants.15Happy are those who hear the joyful call to worship,for they will walk in the light of your presence, Lord.

Lord God my Father,

Be my defender and under your protection so I may focus on bringing you glory. Help me to release any confusion I may carry to represent you well in all things. Protect me from those who are threatened by your Truth.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
