Praying Through: Psalm 125
The Psalm
Psalm 125 (CSB)
A song of ascents.1 Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. It cannot be shaken; it remains forever.
2 The mountains surround Jerusalem and the LORD surrounds his people, both now and forever.
3 The scepter of the wicked will not remain over the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not apply their hands to injustice.
4 Do what is good, LORD, to the good, to those whose hearts are upright.
5 But as for those who turn aside to crooked ways, the LORD will banish them with the evildoers. Peace be with Israel.
The Prayer
My Most Precious Gift
The love you give
- is steadfast
- never ceases.
The mercies you've shown
- never come to an end.
The grace you have for me
- is layered
- like an ocean
- on a ocean.
The faith you have gifted me
- is the unbreakable chain
- that connects to your Almight.
THe Spirit that dwells in me
- gives me trueness
- and fullness of life.
The Son that I have
- is mine
- and I am his
- forever.
