The Daily Prayer: Psalm 43

Watch the devotional that goes with this prayer (Psalm 43)

Prayer: Our Father in heaven, we know you stand ready and able to help us with whatever concerns us. We are your redeemed people, and you are our God. We know that we are never to take matters into our hands, repaying evil with evil. Vengeance is yours to give, but we pray that you would as we face those who hate you and act wickedly toward us. Father, your people are suffering all over the world, and we pray for our brothers and sisters who are enduring unbelievable sorrows and trials because of evil people. We take so much for granted as we live in our country, but we know there are many who cannot gather to worship you because of evil actors. We pray for relief for them. We pray for help. We pray for the light of your Word to minister ot them. We pray that you will be pleased to remove all obstacles in their path so they can come to your holy hill and praise you with one voice. We pray for you to sustain them in their suffering, knowing that you will vindicate them in this life or the life to come. Please help your church to stand firm in the face of opposition and guide it as you promised. We pray these things in the name of Christ our Lord. Amen.
