Psalms 31
English Standard Version
Into Your Hand I Commit My Spirit
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.
1 In you, O Lord, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame; in your righteousness deliver me!
2 Incline your ear to me; rescue me speedily! Be a rock of refuge for me, a strong fortress to save me!
3 For you are my rock and my fortress; and for your name's sake you lead me and guide me;
4 you take me out of the net they have hidden for me, for you are my refuge.
5 Into your hand I commit my spirit; you have redeemed me, O Lord, faithful God.
6 I hate[a] those who pay regard to worthless idols, but I trust in the Lord.
7 I will rejoice and be glad in your steadfast love, because you have seen my affliction; you have known the distress of my soul,
8 and you have not delivered me into the hand of the enemy; you have set my feet in a broad place.
9 Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am in distress; my eye is wasted from grief; my soul and my body also.
10 For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing; my strength fails because of my iniquity, and my bones waste away.
11 Because of all my adversaries I have become a reproach, especially to my neighbors, and an object of dread to my acquaintances; those who see me in the street flee from me.
12 I have been forgotten like one who is dead; I have become like a broken vessel.
13 For I hear the whispering of many— terror on every side!—as they scheme together against me, as they plot to take my life.
14 But I trust in you, O Lord; I say, “You are my God.”
15 My times are in your hand; rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from my persecutors!
16 Make your face shine on your servant; save me in your steadfast love!
17 O Lord, let me not be put to shame, for I call upon you; let the wicked be put to shame; let them go silently to Sheol.
18 Let the lying lips be mute, which speak insolently against the righteous in pride and contempt.
19 Oh, how abundant is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you and worked for those who take refuge in you, in the sight of the children of mankind!
20 In the cover of your presence you hide them from the plots of men; you store them in your shelter from the strife of tongues.
21 Blessed be the Lord, for he has wondrously shown his steadfast love to me when I was in a besieged city.
22 I had said in my alarm, “I am cut off from your sight. ”But you heard the voice of my pleas for mercy when I cried to you for help.
23 Love the Lord, all you his saints! The Lord preserves the faithful but abundantly repays the one who acts in pride.
24 Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the Lord!
ObservationThose who love GOD are HIS saints, those who love GOD are those who truly obey GOD in HIS WORD and follow HIS commandments, because love is not just a feeling but an act to please the Beloved. Those who love GOD become Saints because they become like HIM holy and righteous as they keep following and obeying GOD.
ApplicationI have so many problems and troubles trying to drown me but I will lift my head up and look to GOD who saves me from them all, GOD who will deliver me, to GOD who will rescue me from all my affliction and heal the brokenness in my heart, to GOD who will redeem all my pain and hear the sightings of my heart, who collects all my tears in HIS bottle and to whom I am precious in HIS sight. The righteous may have many troubles but HE delivers them from them all. I hope in HIS WORD and in HIS Promises I will stand.
PrayersDear AVI,O GREAT I AM, Blessed are YOU O LORD My GOD and KING of the Universe! Please JESUS thank YOU that YOU feel all my pain and sufferings, YOU carry all my burdens with me because YOU care about me more than I do for myself. I will hope in YOUR redemption, I will hope in YOUR love, I will lean on YOU My FATHER My GOD. Look at my earthly father, how he has abandoned us and my greedy mother, who is not satisfied by her blessings since she keeps doing wrong. She keeps seeking for money and gold, she wants more because she placed her value in what she owns. But I pray for my parents O GOD that YOU will make them fear YOU and seek YOU. I cannot blame them for my troubles, I don't want to blame them. I want to trust YOU with everything that YOU are allowing me to go through my life today. YOU have a purpose for all this and I pray that I will always rejoice in YOU even after all my pain. I pray for the healing and deliverance of Sandro Muhlach, Jaja Gulfan, Carlo Rebadomia, Kyle Chua, Stephen Yu and Benita Yu all those who need YOUR salvation. I will always pray for them, until I feel no longer obliged to pray for them. I pray for Gabella to be healed from all her sickness and for everyone of our workers to be pure hearted and faithful to their work and be honest. I pray that YOU remove everyone not fit to work for us. I pray O GOD, have mercy on us all. I pray that we will find favor with the Police Investigators today and that Remar will be issued a warrant of arrest in no time. I pray that YOU help me find a new encoder to replace Rosalia and an Accounting Head to teach us and head our department before she will completely retire. I pray for my husband wherever he is that YOU prepare him and I for one another and that YOU bless everything he does let it prosper and that he will love YOU more than anything and be devoted to YOU, pleasing YOU, giving YOU glory. I pray for my family in law to love me the moment they see me, and that my family will love my husband too. I pray for Pastor Jonah to have solutions to his problems O GOD in the work of Your kingdom. I pray for YOUR grace upon us all O GOD Almighty. Give me strength, hope and let my joy be full in YOU, let me always look to YOU and not in man. For YOU alone deserve all the glory honor power and praise, until YOU come again LORD JESUS let me remain steadfast trusting in YOU. Please LORD JESUS make me joyful inspite of the troubles because I have cried out all my pain to YOU and so YOU can heal me and take care of me. For YOU are my GOD and KING who deserves the best that I can give!
In the Name of JESUS Amen!
