About this deal

In verses 3, 7, and 8, David is probably referring to how his enemies or others are more prosperous than he is. But he does not let anger overrule him, because he knows that while those emotions are valid, they are not the truth. God is the truth. Our identity in Him remains as “faithful servant[s]” whom He has sanctified. Thus, our reality that God is faithful and for us remains unchanged. Finding Peace And Refuge The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against him; 10 we have not obeyed the Lord our God or kept the laws he gave us through his servants the prophets. Matthew 6:6 - But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. Just as Daniel prayed in verses 9 to 10, let us take comfort knowing that no depth and amount of sin can separate God’s love and mercy for us. And it is promised that when we confess and turn away from our sins, God will show us His unchanging mercy ( Proverbs 28:13-14). Ask God For Forgiveness In verse 9, Solomon asks for a discerning heart, a heart to understand what is right and wrong. This goes beyond asking for knowing what is right and wrong. We cannot gain wisdom if we know without understanding. Solomon realizes this and thus asks God to fill him with understanding, not mere knowledge. This is how we should ask for wisdom.

We don’t know what troubling situation drove David to pen Psalm 25. We do know it involved his enemies, a need for God’s guidance, and sin in his life. If you feel like you’ve reached a dead end in life, pray this prayer for God to help you find His path forward. Instead of asking for freedom from continued persecution (which is a fine prayer), they prayed for boldness in sharing the gospel (see also Ephesians 6:18–20). God responded immediately to their prayer, “And when they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness” (verse 31). After asking God for these things to be true in the lives of the Ephesian church, Paul ends his prayer in praise:How do you pray? Prayers that are rooted in Scripture are guaranteed to be aligned with the heart of God. Here is a list of 15 powerful prayers adapted from the Bible that you can use word-for-word or to spur on your own prayers: Romans 5:1-11

He seats them with princes and has them inherit a throne of honor. “For the foundations of the earth are the Lord’s; on them, he has set the world.Jesus’ prayer for surrender and obedience to God is a well-known prayer. This was Jesus’ prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane. Before Jesus fulfilled God’s plan of salvation, he prayed to God and was in great anguish over his approaching physical pain and separation from God. Though Jesus knew his crucifixion was inevitable and of God’s will, his human nature still struggled. This is a powerful prayer in the bible that we can all learn from. Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Your name; Your kingdom come; Your will be done; on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom, the power and, the glory, forever and ever. Amen. Lessons We Can Learn From The Lord’s Prayer Declaration of God’s identity Mathew 26: 38-41 Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.” 39 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.” You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. My soul soars when I read this passage—there is no one like our God! I love how verse 36 (bolded above) answers all of life’s biggest questions in twelve short words—For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things: David prayed this prayer after the prophet Nathan confronted him about his adultery with Bathsheba and the murder of her husband, Uriah. (Read about that story in 2 Samuel 11-12.) David knew that he sinned first against God. “Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight” (4), and casts himself on the mercy of God for mercy and a clean heart.

Acts 7:59-60 While they were stoning him, Stephen prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” Then he fell on his knees and cried out, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” When he had said this, he fell asleep. Lessons We Can Learn From Stephen’s Prayer Even When Facing Persecution, Be Rest Assured That God Is Still With You Father God, we praise you for the wonderful future that you have prepared for us through the death and resurrection of you Son, Jesus Christ. We eagerly await the day when we will enter into your presence for all eternity with holy bodies untainted by sin. Please help us to not lose heart when we face the many pressures, anxieties, and troubles of life in this fallen world. Let us take great courage in the knowledge that you’ve given us the Holy Spirit to prepare our souls for our kingdom dwelling with you. Thank you for letting Jesus live in us. It is in his name that we pray, Amen. 2 Corinthians 5:6-10 The Lord brings death and makes it alive; he brings down to the grave and raises. 7 The Lord sends poverty and wealth; he humbles and he exalts. 8 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap; Sovereign Lord, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and everything in them, who through the mouth of our father David, your servant, said by the Holy Spirit [in Psalm 2], When Jabez asked God to ‘Enlarge [his] territory’, he was not seeking wealth or more land but he wanted God to expand his spiritual territory, to claim more generations for God’s kingdom. When we pray, not only should we bring our petitions to Him, but let’s also turn our focus to God and have a heart for Him and His Kingdom. Prayers Close To The Heart of God Will Be Answered
