O Lord, our God, blessed be Your Name on high. We declare Your glory and righteousness to all generations. You are good. Your mercy endures forever. Your love abounds.

Scripture Reading

Read aloud (together if applicable).

Psalm 138 (NKJV)

 

I will praise You with my whole heart;
Before the gods I will sing praises to You.

I will worship toward Your holy temple,
And praise Your name
For Your lovingkindness and Your truth;
For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.

In the day when I cried out, You answered me,
And made me bold with strength in my soul.

 

All the kings of the earth shall praise You, O LORD,
When they hear the words of Your mouth.

Yes, they shall sing of the ways of the LORD,
For great is the glory of the LORD.

Though the LORD is on high,
Yet He regards the lowly;
But the proud He knows from afar.

 

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me;
You will stretch out Your hand
Against the wrath of my enemies,
And Your right hand will save me.

The LORD will perfect that which concerns me;
Your mercy, O LORD, endures forever;
Do not forsake the works of Your hands.

Worship through Prayer

  1. Lord, I pray to mature spiritually. Let me be firm in faith by growing in the knowledge of Your Word. As I know You more, I would be able to understand Your ways better and praise You fervently with my whole heart in spirit and in truth. Bless me with this passion for You and Your Word.

  2. Lord, bless my eternal relationship with fellow believers with the bond of Christ's unconditional love. Let there be peace and harmony among us. May I be intentional in praising You with brothers and sisters in the Lord in order to encourage one another especially during this difficult time.

  3. Lord, I praise You for You are sovereign. I know that all things in my life will work out for good. You are trustworthy. I may not make sense of all the chaos and sufferings happening but I believe that nothing is out of Your sovereign and righteous control. Help me praise You even more in season of trials. 

  4. Almighty God, protect our brethren in Afghanistan. Even when evil and wicked men seem to have prevailed, let Your children shine brightly in the darkness. Give them courage to stand firm in the faith till the end. Let the peace and comfort and deliverance of the Lord Jesus be with them all, Amen.
