Maranatha Singers (With Lyrics)
“Give ear to my
words, O Lord, consider my groaning.
Heed the sound of
my cry for help,
my King and my
God, for to Thee do I pray.
In the morning, O
Lord, Thou wilt hear my voice;
in the morning I
will order my prayer to Thee and eagerly watch.
For Thou art not a
God who takes pleasure in wickedness;
no evil dwells with Thee.
The boastful shall
not stand before Thine eyes;
Thou dost hate all
who do iniquity.
Thou dost destroy
those who speak falsehood;
the Lord abhors the man of bloodshed and
deceit.
But as for me, by
Thine abundant lovingkindness I will enter Thy house, at Thy holy temple I will
bow in reverence for Thee.
“O Lord, lead me
in Thy righteousness because of my foes;
make Thy way
straight before me.
There is nothing
reliable in what they say; their inward part is destruction itself; their
throat is an open grave; they flatter with their tongue.
Hold them guilty,
O God; by their own devices let them fall!
In the multitude
of their transgressions thrust them out, for they are rebellious against Thee.
“But let all who
take refuge in Thee be glad.
Let them ever sing
for joy; and mayest Thou shelter them,
that those who love Thy name may exult in
Thee.
For it is Thou who
dost bless the righteous man,
O Lord, Thou dost
surround him with favour as with a shield.”
Psalm 5
Take care, your servant and friend in Christ, Darlene (who
prays for you each morning).

USA and religious freedom for Christians wherever they may be.

that their time together will be filled with extraordinary good memories and lots
of love.

work but with a family of four, he needs to find something stable to

wisdom and patience). Penne has
‘disowned’ all her family, and although a believer, does not attend fellowship
for support. Please pray for her peace
of mind and God’s guidance.
·
USA President
Donald Trump – As Christians it
is our responsibility to pray for our leaders and know that God has a plan for
the USA through this man. If you doubt
the importance of his appointment, just look at the baseless antagonism against
him. Surely Satan is NOT happy and means to thwart God’s plan. Pray someone helps President Trump and Melania to understand the true meaning of a
personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Pray they will both have an insatiable hunger to read God’s Word for
themselves. Pray God sends a Bible-Believing
Christian to regularly disciple them in the Truth. Pray God shuts the mouths of the false
prophets who regularly circle around them.
·
Isaias and Judith
(Ambassadors for Christ the Philippines) – carrying on their
fruitful ministry in the Philippines, despite the many challenges they must
daily work with, including the impending threat of China claiming their country. Pray for those who lead, administer, work,
teach and contribute to the ministry.
Pray our Father continues to keep these servants strong, in good health,
safe and supported and that they keep a balance in their lives. They need funds
badly now.

Pray for those in full-time service
During this time, when the entire world is struggling to
understand this new ‘plague’, it is critical for us to uphold our Christian
leaders. They will be needed
everywhere. Pray for their wisdom,
safety, ingenuity, strength and for their families.
Pray for those with ongoing health concerns
Many of us have family, friends and loved ones who are
fragile health wise. It is important to
protect them in practical ways and most important we must pray even more for
them that the Lord will have mercy on them during this challenging time.
