Standing against wicked nations and individuals

Day 132: Psalms 43:1

            Psalm 43:1 Vindicate me, O God, And plead my cause against an ungodly nation; Oh, deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man!

            Lord God, You know my heart. You know my efforts. You do not forget me or my works, imperfect as they are. You know those who have unjustly charged me and hurt me. When there is no place else to turn and all my efforts to have my fair day in court have failed, my case will come before You. You hear me. You help me. You see me through the trials and deep waters of life. When all is said and done, You will preserve me and help me to stand in Your presence by Your grace with justice and true holiness that comes from knowing You.

            Lord, at times it seems that the whole nation is against me, but in Your season, You will make things right. You will settle accounts. You will deliver me from the liar, the trickster, the cheater, and conniver. He may prosper for a moment, but in the end, God will cause those who trust in Him to stand.

            Thank You, O Lord and praise be to Your holy name.

Jesus Christ brought me to Himself at a very early age. I began seeking the Lord and writing prayer journals in my early teens and have continued to grow in my knowledge and experience of prayer. I am still learning and growing in my prayer life and long to help others grow in their prayer lives as well. I am not an expert, but a practitioner who needs God to continue to teach me to pray. Prayer is both simple, yet also profound. It is deep and draws us into the depth of God, but it is also so easy and wondrous that we can cry out to God with "Abba, Father" prayers because of the work of Jesus Christ and His Holy Spirit. Prayer comes from God's heart, works in our hearts, and teaches us to go back to seek God's heart!
