PrayerBits for Friday

PrayerBits

A bite sized devotional program
produced by the West Side Presbyterian Church

Friday

Scripture lesson: Psalm 66:8-20 “I will tell...”

 

Time to reflect: Are we willing to tell others about what God has done for us?


Moving Throughout the day: Pray for opportunities to tell others about God and Christ.


Scripture:

Praise our God, O peoples,
       let the sound of his praise be heard;

  he has preserved our lives
       and kept our feet from slipping.

  For you, O God, tested us;
       you refined us like silver.

  You brought us into prison
       and laid burdens on our backs.

  You let men ride over our heads;
       we went through fire and water,
       but you brought us to a place of abundance.

 I will come to your temple with burnt offerings
       and fulfill my vows to you-

  vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke
       when I was in trouble.

  I will sacrifice fat animals to you
       and an offering of rams;
       I will offer bulls and goats.
       Selah

  Come and listen, all you who fear God;
       let me tell you what he has done for me.

  I cried out to him with my mouth;
       his praise was on my tongue.

  If I had cherished sin in my heart,
       the Lord would not have listened;

  but God has surely listened
       and heard my voice in prayer.

  Praise be to God,
       who has not rejected my prayer
       or withheld his love from me!
