+ DAILY PRAYER +
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Hear my prayer, O Lord; give ear to my pleas for mercy!
In your faithfulness answer me, in your righteousness!
Evening and morning and at noon I utter my complaint and moan,
and he hears my voice.
Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you;
He will never permit the righteous to be moved.
Psalm 81:1-7
Psa 81:1 Sing aloud to God our strength;
shout for joy to the God of Jacob!
Psa 81:2 Raise a song; sound the tambourine,
the sweet lyre with the harp.
Psa 81:3 Blow the trumpet at the new moon,
at the full moon, on our feast day.
Psa 81:4 For it is a statute for Israel,
a rule of the God of Jacob.
Psa 81:5 He made it a decree in Joseph
when he went out over the land of Egypt.
I hear a language I had not known:
Psa 81:6 “I relieved your shoulder of the burden;
your hands were freed from the basket.
Psa 81:7 In distress you called, and I delivered you;
I answered you in the secret place of thunder;
I tested you at the waters of Meribah. Selah
Reading for Tuesday April 22nd Psalm 118:13-29
13 You pushed me hard to make me fall,
but Yahweh helped me.
14 Yah is my strength and my song,
and he has become my salvation.
15 The sound of rejoicing and salvation
is in the tents of the righteous;
the right hand of Yahweh has done valiantly.
16 The right hand of Yahweh has exalted;
the right hand of Yahweh has done valiantly.
17 I will not die but live,
and tell of the works of Yah.
18 Yah has disciplined me severely,
but he did not consign me to death.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness,
that I may enter through them
and give thanks to Yah.
20 This is the gate of Yahweh,
through which the righteous will enter.
21 I will give thanks to you for you have answered me,
and you have become my salvation.
22 The stone the builders rejected
has become the chief cornerstone.
23 This is from Yahweh;
it is wonderful in our eyes.
24 This is the day Yahweh has worked;
let us rejoice and be glad in him.
25 O Yahweh, please save;
O Yahweh, please grant success.
26 Blessed is he who comes in the name of Yahweh.
We bless you from the house of Yahweh.
27 Yahweh is God, and he has given us light.
Bind the festal sacrifice with cords
to the horns of the altar.
28 You are my God, and I will give thanks to you.
You are my God; I will exalt you.
29 Give thanks to Yahweh for he is good,
for his loyal love is forever.
