Praying Through: Psalm 119:161-168

The Psalm

Psalm 119:161–168 (CSB)
161 Princes have persecuted me without cause, but my heart fears only your word.

162 I rejoice over your promise like one who finds vast treasure.

163 I hate and abhor falsehood, but I love your instruction.

164 I praise you seven times a day for your righteous judgments.

165 Abundant peace belongs to those who love your instruction; nothing makes them stumble.

166 LORD, I hope for your salvation and carry out your commands.

167 I obey your decrees and love them greatly.

168 I obey your precepts and decrees, for all my ways are before you.

The Prayer

My Living Word

All of your word

  • points to you
  • because it points through
  • your only begotten Son.

So I pray that your Spirit

  • whom dwells in me
  • will guide me
  • and bring me
  • all the way home
  • to you.

Praise your name

  • my Father
  • my Savior
  • my Spirit.

Amen.
