Reason #390,222,849 why I love the Bible

A couple weeks ago I began reading Psalm and right off the bat God convicted me. Psalm 1:2 talks of "those" who mediate on His Word day and night. Immediately I knew my thoughts in the morning and at night were not focused on God, they were just random. Thus I began reading His Word every morning and every night and of course it has been awesome. I read Psalm 20 recently and just wanted to share it with you. This is a great prayer we can pray for those going through difficult and challenging times.

"In times of trouble, may the Lord answer your cry. May the name of the God of Jacob keep you safe from all harm. 2 May he send you help from his sanctuary and strengthen you from Jerusalem. 3 May he remember all your gifts and look favorably on your offerings burnt. 4 May he grant your heart’s desires and make all your plans succeed. 5 May we shout for joy when we hear of your victory and raise a victory banner in the name of our God. May the Lord answer all your prayers. 6 Now I know that the Lord rescues his anointed king. He will answer him from his holy heaven and rescue him by his great power. 7 Some nations boast of their chariots and horses, but we boast in the name of the Lord our God. 8 Those nations will fall down and collapse, but we will rise up and stand firm. 9 Give victory to our king, O Lord! Answer our cry for help."
Amen!
