Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. Psalm 127:1
Daily Meditation
“They fear not God”
When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when they perish, the righteous increase. They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless. God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God. But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth: with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. Proverbs 28:28; Psalm 94:6; Psalm 55:19; Isaiah 11:4
Hymn
“Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.” Psalm 59:2
Protect and save me, O my God,
From foes that seek my life,
And set me high, secure, above
The rising tide of strife.
The workers of iniquity
Against me lie in wait;
Though I am innocent, O Lord,
They gather in their hate.
Behold their wickedness, O Lord,
To help me, O awake;
Lord God of hosts, Thou, Israel’s God,
Arise, and vengeance take.
O God, our Shield, let wickedness
And pride be put to shame,
Till all shall know that Thou dost rule
And all shall fear Thy Name.
To Thee, O God most merciful,
My thankful song I raise;
My Might, my strong, secure Abode,
I will proclaim Thy praise.
Consolation
A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this. When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever: But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore. Psalm 92:6-8
Exhortation
Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou enquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise. Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods. What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it. Deuteronomy 12:30-32

Proverbs
Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death. The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness. The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness. Proverbs 11:4-6
Weekly Verse:
Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him. He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him. Hear diligently my speech, and my declaration with your ears. Job 13:15-17
I Pray Thee
Heavenly Father, I thank thee for allowing me to see this day. Help me not only to give thanks for it, but inspire my heart to do all that I possibly can to live this day praising and glorifying thee. Cause me to help those most in need and let it all be done for thy name sake. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
