Prayers & Psalms for Meditation

Paul's Prison Prayer #3

"Oh come, let us sing to the LORD; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation! Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods. In his hand are the depths of the earth; the heights of the mountains are his also. The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land. Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD our Maker! For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand" – Psalm 95:1-7

• Begin by praising God for his characteristics (Grace, love, truth, justice, patience, kindness, etc…)
• Begin to thank God for your salvation and the blessings in your life.
• Praise the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for the relationships we have with each of the Godhead.
• Finally ask the Spirit to use you today to share Christ with someone, pray for someone, as he leads you to pray, ask for ways to be used.

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
