Let my Tears and Cries Be Heard to Your Heavenly Throne

"O God, why do You cast us off forever? Why does Your anger smoke against the sheep of Your pasture?" (v1). O God, my King of salvation, let my lips praise Your name with a fefar of awesomeness. You're the King of old, working the salavtion for all people of the earth (v12)."Arise, O God, defend Your cause, remember how the foolish scoff at You all the day! Do not forget the clamour of their  upraor of thsoe who rise agianst You, which goes up continually! (v22-23).

I will declare Your word with my lips and hold to its truth. Holy Spirit, guide my heart and mind against those who have a different opinion from me and guard my ways pure so that I might not sin against You. It is with a heartfelt and profound sadness that I hear those who have burned Your sanctuary, mocked Your name continually, and oppressed all the nations with lies and deceit with their media. Arrogantly humiliating and jailing those who stand for the truth. We believed in our hearts that we were left without our heavenly King. O God, see how they have gone astray! What will tomorrow bring to our innocent children? Oh, Jesus, came back soon.

How long, O God, is the foe Scoff? (v10)

Forgive me, Lord, when my heart cries out for justice, and I have received none in the present time. Forgive me, Lord, when I desire lures, entice my mind to sin, and wander away from Your Word. Forgive me when I disobey by not delighting in Your ways and seek other means to satisfy my craving in life. Holy Spirit, renew my heart and mind to delight in Your Word and understand Your will.

Oh Jesus, Do not forsake your servant, for I cannot bear to carry my cross alone. Let me dwell in Your tent and find peace and rest. Let my heart forgive those who have hurt us. Restore our faith and strengthen our minds to read, meditate, and share Your testimonies with others. Defend our cause, O Lord, for we are all perishing daily.

Redeem our sons and daughters. Saved our neighbours. Purify our hearts from worldly desires that lead to death. Show us humility. Teach us to love our family more in a biblical matter. I pray for the fathers and mothers who must raise their children in a difficult time. In Your hands, I will trust.

What I learned about God:

• God is the defender of our cause
• He is the King of salvation
• He is a Divine Deliverer
• A Redeemer of our heritage
• He establishes the heavens and the earth
• He hears our plea for justice
• His grace is continually active

What I’m Grateful for:

• There is a spiritual warfare going on, and God is in control of it all.
• God has sent his angels before us to fight for us, things glorious and unseen to our naked eyes.
• He hears our pleas for intervention and shall punish those in due time.
• He is the mastermind and won against all evil plots already.
• I’m secure in Him.
