Psalm 80:3  Turn us again to yourself, O God. Make your face shine down upon us. Only then will we be saved. (NLT)

Some prayers are worth re-praying. Some words bear repeating. Some ideas take time to fully penetrate our hearts and minds. 

Psalm 80 is a radiant psalm. Seasons of success and lives of peace and meaning have a common source. They begin and end with God alone. 

Notice the words above from verse 3 repeat in verses 7 and 19. 

Notice also the repetition of God’s radiant glory in verses 1, 3, 7, and 19. 

The more we focus on God’s glory, the more fruitful, effective, loving, and generous our lives become. 

Rescue and redemption are among God’s glorious works.

Renewal and restoration are evidence of his grace and mercy. 

Revival comes from God’s glow and overflow in our lives. 

This is a prayer worth praying and praying repeatedly. 

This is a prayer worth pondering, and employing regularly. 

I will pray with focused attention on God’s glory and his salvation.

Our Father, words often fail us when we attempt to express the deepest truths and are accompanied by our fondest hopes. Sometimes the best thing we can do is repeat what we know to be true. You are glorious! You are radiant! You illuminate all good things! Make your face shine on us today. Deliver us from encroaching darkness. Cascade your brilliance through our revived and renewed lives. Amen.

Daily D – Job 1:9-11

Job 1:9-11 Satan replied to the LORD, “Yes, but Job has good reason to fear God. You have always put a wall of protection around him and his home and his property. You have made him prosper in everything he does. Look how rich he is! But reach out and take away everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face!”

Daily D – Psalm 139:1-6

Psalm 139:1-6
O LORD, you have examined my heart
and know everything about me.
You know when I sit down or stand up.
You know my thoughts even when I’m far away.
You see me when I travel
and when I rest at home.
You know everything I do.
You know what I am going to say
even before I say it, LORD.
You go before me and follow me.
You place your hand of blessing on my head.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too great for me to understand!

Hear my cry, O Lord.
Pay attention to my prayer.

Daily D – Psalm 125:4-5

Psalm 125:4, 5
O LORD, do good to those who are good,
whose hearts are in tune with you.
But banish those who turn to crooked ways, O LORD.
Take them away with those who do evil.
May Israel have peace!
