ADORATION (v. 1-4)
Clap your hands, all peoples! Shout to God with loud songs of joy! 2 For the Lord, the Most High, is to be feared, a great king over all the earth. 3 He subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet. 4 He chose our heritage for us, the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah
O Lord, we clap our hands and sing joyous songs to You, for you’re the Most High to be feared. Our nations have forsaken you, O God, and we’re cast into Satan’s shadow of gloominess, hopelessness, and destruction of our soul, mind and body. We shall rejoice in the little moments of our life until your kingdom and justice come. We seek peace and will not find it until the King of kings returns. O Lord, we will remember your steadfast love on this day, for you are our good Shepherd.
CONFESSION
You’re a God to whom we can cry, and you hear our voice in your steadfast love. We also sing our joy to You. Our belief in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior is our secure salvation and hope in Him. It’s not through the works of our own righteousness that we are saved but by the blood of the perfect Lamb. O Father, forgive us if we put our trust of salvation in anything else than our redeemer, Jesus Christ.
THANKSGIVING (v.5-7)
God has gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet. 6 Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises! 7 For God is the King of all the earth; sing praises with a psalm!
We’re thankful that you’ve already triumphed over our enemies. Such a glorious hope for us! Your grace abounds in the world, saving those who you’ve redeemed. None can stop this magnificent grace of Yours! No scheme of evils, power, or greed of this world can overcome your mighty work of grace. Let us sing praises to you, our King. With our voices, let us testify of who Christ is without shame or fear of persecution. You alone give us the strength and comfort to live a godly life.
SUPPLICATION (v. 8-9)
God reigns over the nations;God sits on his holy throne.9 The princes of the peoples gather as the people of the God of Abraham. For the shields of the earth belong to God; he is highly exalted!
You sit on your holy throne, exalted on high!. You’ve answered our deepest prayers; some have not been answered yet because it’s according to your will, not ours. I pray for those who need healing in body, mind, and spirit. I pray for the families that they stay strong and faithful to You. I pray for single and lonely people; you’re most loved in Christ. Let this week be a reminder of what Christ came into this world for, not just a baby in a manger, but to fulfill his destiny by providing the perfect sacrifice for our iniquities. Oh, how I love you, Jesus!
Let’s Go Pray!
