Philippians 2; Psalm 5; Numbers 6; Psalm 5&23

Thank you, Father, that you hear my words. You consider my prayers and my needs. I cry out to you, and you hear me, and you work in my will and actions to do all that pleases you and uses me as your instrument.

You, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are my king and my God. I make my prayers to you. You hear my voice in the morning, Lord, and I am filled with sure hope. I look up to you, Father, and you bless me and keep me. Your face shines upon me, and you are gracious to me. You look on me with love and favor, and I am filled with peace.

I put my trust in you, Lord, and I rejoice because you’re perfectly trustworthy. I shout and sing because you guard over me, and you guide me. With favor, you surround me as a shield.

You are my shepherd, and I want for nothing. You make me rest in living places, you lead me to peace, you restore my hope, and you fill me with righteousness, because it pleases you; it serves your divine purposes, and it is good for me. You fill me to overflowing, and I dwell with you forever.
