I praise You seven times a day for Your righteous judgments.
Let my vindication come from You,
for You see what is right.
When they persisted in questioning Him, He stood up and said to them, “The one without sin among you should be the first to throw a stone at her.”
“I will come to you in judgment, and I will be ready to witness against sorcerers and adulterers; against those who swear falsely; against those who oppress the widow and the fatherless, and cheat the wage earner; and against those who deny justice to the foreigner. They do not fear Me,” says the Lord of Hosts. “Because I, Yahweh, have not changed, you descendants of Jacob have not been destroyed.
“Since the days of your fathers, you have turned from My statutes; you have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord of Hosts.
-Malachi 3:5-7
Now this is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you: God is light, and there is absolutely no darkness in Him. If we say, “We have fellowship with Him,” yet we walk in darkness, we are lying and are not practicing the truth. But if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say, “We have no sin,” we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say, “We don’t have any sin,” we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.
-Psalm 119:164

Put your hope in God, for I will still praise Him, my Savior and my God.
I am deeply depressed;
therefore I remember You from the land of Jordan
and the peaks of Hermon, from Mount Mizar.
Deep calls to deep in the roar of Your waterfalls;
all Your breakers and Your billows have swept over me.
The Lord will send His faithful love by day;
His song will be with me in the night—
a prayer to the God of my life.

Take your depressed people into a deep dive of Your grace, Your mercy, and Your love. Cleanse us and renew us in Your self again. Let us know again Your faithful love by day and Your singing presence in the darkness. Let Your song to us become our prayer to You." Amen.

"Lord, Yahweh, we know that You never change, but we do. God, forgive us for walking away from You. Lord, let us return to You and turn away from our sins. Yahweh, God, we humbly ask you to forgive us and cleanse us our our sins, that You have convicted and convinced us of. Forgive us for practicing witchcraft. We repent of cheating on our wives and husbands. Forgive us for being liars. We are sorry for treating people who have suffered the loss of their most loved one badly. We have not taken care of the orphans and for that we are sorry and want to do better. We have cheated each other out of fair pay and loved money more than You; forgive us. We have also turned our backs on people from other nations who have been uprooted. We have not been merciful nor generous. Forgive us and help us be like You. Lord, help us to fear You again and walk in Your ways. We choose to return to You. God, help us." Amen.

-1 John 1:5-10
"God, let us walk in Your light. We have lied to ourselves and each other, and have walked in the darkness of lies. We want to come back into Your light and walk in truth, telling the truth to ourselves and to each other. God, cleanse us from all our sins with the blood of Jesus. Help us to stop deceiving ourselves. We have not only lied to others, but to ourselves and we want to now stop being deceivers and start walking in integrity. We confess ours sins, our specific, personal sins, and the sins of our people. We choose and desire and ask for your grace, help, and presence to stop lying and to be truthful. We have sinned and ask for You to cleanse us with the blood of Jesus, from all of our unrighteous ways. Amen.
