The word for today



2 Corinthians 12:9

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore, I will most gladly boast all the more about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may reside in me.


Psalm 68:9

You, God, showered abundant rain; you revived your inheritance when it languished.



Psalm 72:1

Of Solomon.

God, give your justice to the king and your righteousness to the king’s son.


Psalm 83

A song. A psalm of Asaph.

God, do not keep silent.
Do not be deaf, God; do not be quiet.
See how your enemies make an uproar; those who hate you have acted arrogantly.
They devise clever schemes against your people; they conspire against your treasured ones.
They say, “Come, let’s wipe them out as a nation so that Israel’s name will no longer be remembered.”
For they have conspired with one mind; they form an alliance against you— the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites, Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre.
Even Assyria has joined them; they lend support to the sons of Lot.
Selah

Deal with them as you did with Midian, as you did with Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.
They were destroyed at En-dor; they became manure for the ground.
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and all their tribal leaders like Zebah and Zalmunna, who said, “Let’s seize God’s pastures for ourselves.”

Make them like tumbleweed, my God, like straw before the wind.
As fire burns a forest, as a flame blazes through mountains, so pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your storm.
Cover their faces with shame so that they will seek your name, Lord.
Let them be put to shame and terrified forever; let them perish in disgrace.
May they know that you alone— whose name is the Lord— are the Most High over the whole earth.


Psalm 41:2

For the choir director. A psalm of David.

Happy is one who is considerate of the poor; the Lord will save him in a day of adversity.
The Lord will keep him and preserve him; he will be blessed in the land.
You will not give him over to the desire of his enemies.
The Lord will sustain him on his sickbed; you will heal him on the bed where he lies.
