The Daily Prayer: Psalm 74

The Morning Devotional: Psalm 74

Prayer: Our God, we know you are just and right, and we know that you discipline us because of your great love for us. We know that you have warned us time and again about your moral law and your command that we love you and others. We also know that we fall short of your demands, and we lament it. Yet, Father, your discipline for us is good because it makes us more like your Son. We pray for you to use these times to sanctify us completely. We also pray for you to protect your people according to your covenant promises. Though we often see your church under attack, we also know that you will never abandon us to those who seek our ruin. You are faithful and kind. You are good to your redeemed people. You have given us your Son, and in him we are no longer condemned. Arise, O God, and defend your cause for the sake of your glory and your people, we pray and ask through Christ our Lord. Amen.
