Since my other site ( He Speaks to Me ) has been down all day I am posting my devotional study here today.
Psalm 144
A Psalm of David.
1 Blessed be the Lord my strength, which teacheth
mine hands to fight, and my fingers to battle. (a)
2 He is my goodness and my fortress, my tower
and my deliverer, my shield and in him I trust,
2which subdueth my people under me.
3 Lord, what is man that thou regardest him!
or the son of man that thou thinkest upon him?
4 Man is like to vanity; his days are like a shadow
that vanisheth.
5 Bow thine heavens, O Lord, and come down;
touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
6 Cast forth the lightning and scatter them;
shoot out thine arrows and consume them.
7 Send thine hand from above: deliver me, and
take me out of the great waters, and from the hand
of strangers,
8 Whose mouth talketh vanity, and their right
hand is a right hand of falsehood.
9 I will sing a new song unto thee, O God, and
sing unto thee upon a viol, and an instrument of
ten strings.
10 It is he that giveth deliverance unto kings, and
rescueth David his servant from the hurtful sword.
11 Rescue me, and deliver me from the hand of
strangers, whose mouth talketh vanity, and their
right hand is a right hand of falsehood:
12 That our sons may be as the plants growing
up in their youth, and our daughters as the corner
stones, graven after the similitude of a palace:
13 That our corners may be full and abounding
with divers sorts, and that our sheep may bring forth
thousands and ten thousand in our streets.
14 That our oxen may be strong to labor; that
there be none invasion, nor going out, nor no crying
in our streets.
15 Blessed are the people, that be so, yea blessed
are the people whose God is the Lord.
(a) Verse 1
1 Corinthians 14:8
Ephesians 6:12
