Psalm 144
Good morning brothers and sisters. Today is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it. No matter what comes my way, I will seek God all of my days.
1- Blessed be the Lord my Rock, who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle-
2- My lovingkindness and my fortress, my high tower and my deliverer. My shield and the One in whom I take refuge, who subdues my people under me.
3- Lord, what is man that You take knowledge of him? Or the son of man that You are mindful of him?
4- Man is like a breath, his days are like a passing shadow.
5- Bow down Your heavens, O Lord, and come down. Touch the mountains and they shall smoke.
6- Flash forth lightning and scatter them, shoot out Your arrows and destroy them.
7- Stretch out Your hand from above, rescue me and deliver me out of great waters from the land of foreigners.
8- Whose mouth speaks living words and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
9- I will sing a new song to You, O God, on a harp of ten strings, I will sing praises to You.
10- The One who gives salvation to kings, who delivers David, His servant from the deadly sword.
11- Rescue me and deliver me from the hand of foreigners, whose mouth speaks lying words and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
12- That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth, that our daughters may be as pillars sculptured in palace style.
13- That our barns may be full supplying all kinds of produce, that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields.
14- That our oxen may be well laden, that there be no breaking in or going out, that there be no outcry in our streets.
15- Happy are the people who are in such a state, Happy are the people whose God is the Lord!
David doesn't want much! We want all the blessings of the Lord! I know I do! But do I sing praise, do I lift His Holy Name, do I worship with my whole heart, do I allow Him to change and mold me? Have a blessed day and rise up child of God, rise up!
