Psalms 147
147:1 Praise the Lord, for it is good to sing praises to our God!
Yes,praise is pleasant and appropriate!
147:2 The Lord rebuilds Jerusalem, and gathers the exiles of Israel.
147:3 He heals the brokenhearted, and bandages their wounds.
147:4 He counts the number of the stars; he names all of them.
147:5 Our Lord is great and has awesome power; there is no limit to his wisdom.
147:6 The Lord lifts up the oppressed, but knocks the wicked to the ground.
147:7 Offer to the Lord a song of thanks! Sing praises to our God to the accompaniment of a harp!
147:8 He covers the sky with clouds, provides the earth with rain, and causes grass to grow on the hillsides.
147:9 He gives food to the animals, and to the young ravens when they chirp.
147:10 He is not enamored with the strength of a horse,
nor is he impressed by the warrior’s strong legs.
147:11 The Lord takes delight in his faithful followers,
and in those who wait for his loyal love.
147:12 Extol the Lord, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!
147:13 For he makes the bars of your gates strong. He blesses your children within you.
147:14 He brings peace to your territory. He abundantly provides for you the best grain.
147:15 He sends his command through the earth;swiftly his order reaches its destination.
147:16 He sends the snow that is white like wool; he spreads the frost that is white like ashes.
147:17 He throws his hailstones like crumbs. Who can withstand the cold wind he sends?
147:18 He then orders it all to melt; he breathes on it, and the water flows.
147:19 He proclaims his word to Jacob, his statutes and regulations to Israel.
147:20 He has not done so with any other nation; they are not aware of his regulations.
Praise the Lord!

There is a Balm in Gilead, to make the wounded whole;
There is a Balm in Gilead to heal the sin-sick soul.
Sometimes I feel discouraged, and think my work’s in vain,
But then the Holy Spirit revives my soul again.
If you cannot preach like Peter, If you cannot pray like Paul
Just tell the love of Jesus, and say He died for all.
There is a Balm in Gilead, to make the wounded whole;
There is a Balm in Gilead to heal the sin-sick soul.

Psalm 37 – read by Tom Lyons
A Psalm of David.
1 Do not fret because of evildoers, Nor be envious of the workers of iniquity.
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb.
3 Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.
4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.
6 He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday.
7 Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret—it only causes harm.
9 For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the Lord, They shall inherit the earth.
10 For yet a little while and the wicked shall be no more; Indeed, you will look carefully for his place, But it shall be no more.
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth, And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. | | Created: 7/12/2010 5:44 PM |  |

Scripture selection by Andy
1 Timothy 2:1-6
First of all, then, I urge that requests, prayers, intercessions, and thanks be offered on behalf of all people, even for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. Such prayer for all is good and welcomed before God our Savior, since he wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one intermediary between God and humanity, Christ Jesus, himself human, who gave himself as a ransom for all, revealing God’s purpose at his appointed time.
