Daily Prayer for June 4th, 2020
Good morning, God—thank you! 🙂
I sincerely seek you. I hunger for your love. I look to you for everything, including the air that I breathe. I sing, and passionately dance as I watch your power and your glory! Your steadfast love is better than life. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
11 You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
you have loosed my sackcloth
and clothed me with gladness,
14 And David danced before the Lord with all his might. And David was wearing a linen ephod.
4 Praise him with tambourine and dance;
praise him with strings and pipe!
13 Then shall the young women rejoice in the dance,
and the young men and the old shall be merry.
I will turn their mourning into joy;
I will comfort them, and give them gladness for sorrow.
My Soul Thirsts for You
A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
63 O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you;
my soul thirsts for you;
my flesh faints for you,
as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
2 So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,
beholding your power and glory.
3 Because your steadfast love is better than life,
my lips will praise you.
4 So I will bless you as long as I live;
in your name, I will lift up my hands.
5 My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food,
and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips,
6 when I remember you upon my bed,
and meditate on you in the watches of the night;
7 for you have been my help,
and in the shadow of your wings, I will sing for joy.
8 My soul clings to you;
your right hand upholds me.
9 But those who seek to destroy my life
shall go down into the depths of the earth;
10 they shall be given over to the power of the sword;
they shall be a portion for jackals.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God;
all who swear by him shall exult,
for the mouths of liars will be stopped.
