Psalm 27

The Lord is my light and my
salvation
Whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the defense of my life;
Whom shall I dread?
When evildoers came
upon me to devour my flesh,
My adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell.
Though a host encamp against me,
My heart will not fear;
Though war arise against me,
In spite of this I shall be confident.

One thing I have asked from the Lord, that I shall seek
That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of the Lord
And to meditate in His temple.
For in the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle;
In the secret place of His tent He will hide me;
He will lift me up on a rock.
And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me;
And I will offer in His tent sacrifices with shouts of joy;
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.

Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice,
And be gracious to me and answer me.
When Thou didst say, "Seek My face," my heart said to Thee,
"Thy face, O Lord, I shall seek."
Do not hide Thy face from me.
Do not turn Thy servant away in anger;
Thou hast been my help;
Do not abandon me nor forsake me,
O God of my salvation!
For my father and my mother have forsaken me,
But the Lord will take me up.

Teach me Thy way, O Lord,
And lead me in a level path,
Because of my foes.
Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries;
For false witnesses have risen against me,
And such as breathe out violence.
I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord
In the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord;
Be strong, and let your heart take courage;
Yes, wait for the Lord.

Last night was another intense time of worship and prayer to our God. I love it. Soaking in his presence is so refreshing. Gathering together with others, praying and asking our Abba Father in unison is powerful! It says when two or more agree it shall be done! When I got home last night, I opened my Bible, and God gave me the above scripture. Perfect for where I am and what I am going through. If you know the situation, then you know how snugly this scripture fits me. If you are curious, I am more than happy to share how God is moving. For those of you who want that deeper time, or are in need of prayer, PLEASE COME!!! Friday Nights @ Abundant Life in Orting www.ortingfoursquare.com for directions.
