you fill me with joy and my 🙏 prayer for you
You have filled me with joy, and happiness has risen in my heart, great delight and unrivaled joy
Dwelling on one Psalm a week has been a way to get it to seep deep into my soul. The first piece that spoke to me was:
Answer my prayers, O True God, the righteous, who makes me right. I was hopelessly surrounded, and You rescued me. Once again hear me; hide me in Your favor; bring victory in defeat and hope in hopelessness.
Oh, Lord, thank You for answering my prayers. You are the true and only God, the Righteous. Through Jesus Christ, You make me right. When I am hopelessly surrounded, You rescue me. Once again, You hear me. You hide me in Your favor. You bring victory in defeat and hope in hopelessness.
You make me right.
You rescue me.
You bring me
Favor, Victory, and Hope.
Psalm 4 is rich in God's promises. Lord, You answer my prayers. I entrust myself to You.
You have filled me with joy, and happiness has risen in my heart, great delight and unrivaled joy
Lord, you fill me with joy, great delight, and unrivaled joy, more than when I have plenty to eat and drink. The joy fills me when I think of You. It thrills my soul. I am calm and at peace, even at night. You keep me safe as I lie on a bed of peace.

Verse of the Week and My Prayer for You
Psalm 4
Answer my prayers, O True God, the righteous, who makes me right. I was hopelessly surrounded, and You rescued me. Once again hear me; hide me in Your favor; bring victory in defeat and hope in hopelessness.
How long will you sons of Adam steal my dignity, reduce my glory to shame? Why pine for the fruitless and dream a delusion? [pause] Understand this: The Eternal One treats as special those like Him. The Eternal will answer my prayers and save me.
Think long; think hard. When you are angry, don’t let it carry you into sin. When night comes, in calm be silent. [pause] From this day forward, offer to God the right sacrifice from a heart made right by God. Entrust yourself to the Eternal.
Crowds of disheartened people ask, “Who can show us what is good?” Let Your brilliant face shine upon us, O Eternal One, that we may know the undeniable answer.
You have filled me with joy, and happiness has risen in my heart, great delight and unrivaled joy, even more than when bread abounds and wine flows freely. Tonight I will sleep securely on a bed of peace because I trust You, You alone, O Eternal One, will keep me safe.
Prayer
Lord, thank You for my reader. Thank You that You make her right with You. You rescue her and bring her favor, victory, and hope. She entrusts herself to You. You shine your brilliant face on her.
Thank You, Lord, for filling my reader with great delight and unrivaled joy. She sleeps securely on a bed of peace because she trusts in You. You alone keep her safe.
Lord, You are our Great and Mighty King. You fight for us every day. We trust in You. We rest in You, knowing You are faithful. Help us to be grateful and praise Your name, Almighty God. Be glorified through her. In Jesus' name, Amen.
