Always There

Good Morning!

Psalm 20 (English Standard Version)
Trust in the Name of the LORD Our God
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.
1May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble!
May the name of the God of Jacob protect you!
2May he send you help from the sanctuary
and give you support from Zion!
3May he remember all your offerings
and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices!
Selah
4May he grant you your heart’s desire
and fulfill all your plans!
5May we shout for joy over your salvation,
and in the name of our God set up our banners!
May the LORD fulfill all your petitions!
6Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed;
he will answer him from his holy heaven
with the saving might of his right hand.
7Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
8They collapse and fall,
but we rise and stand upright.
9O LORD, save the king!
May he answer us when we call.

Have you been talking to the ceiling lately? I know sometimes when we pray, it seems like our prayers bounce off the ceiling. I assure you that God hears every word you utter – and knows every thought you think. I also know that there are times that each of us are frustrated with our circumstances and have that “hopeless” feeling.

Look at the Psalm above. Why don’t we pray this Psalm this morning? Pray this Psalm for your spouse or significant other. Pray this Psalm for your children and grandchildren. Pray this Psalm for your friends - - and for your acquaintances. Pray this Psalm for your coworkers. And know this, some one is praying this Psalm for YOU!

Verse 7: Some trust in chariots and some in horses – some trust in governments and some trust in finances – but we trust in the name of the Lord our God – who created and authorizes all that others trust in. How wonderful to think that we can rely on our God to provide our every need. On this good day.
