“The righteous will rejoice when he sees vengeance; he will wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.” Psalm 58: 10, (NASV) Lord God, protect my children from the wicked and their venom. Shatter their enemy's teeth and tear out their fangs, banishing them like flowing water and blunting their arrows. I pray the eyes of evil doers will never glimpse the sun. Sweep their enemies away, oh God, and avenge my children. Reward their righteousness, I plead, causing them to rejoice in Your justice.

“Be gracious to me, God, be gracious to me, for my soul takes refuge in You; and in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge until destruction passes by.” Psalm 57:1, (NASV)
Be merciful to my children, oh God. Make the shadow beneath Your wings their refuge and hiding place. When they cry out to You, send down Your faithful love and save them, rebuking their enemies. Oh God, may my children exalt Your Name above the heavens for Your glory extends over the earth. When trouble surrounds, foil the plans of their foes and bring them to ruin. OH God, make steadfast their hearts with songs of praise and worship to You. With their praises, I pray my children will awake the dawn for Your love reaches to the heavens and Your faithfulness stretches to the skies. Be exalted, oh God, and make Your glory reign over the earth. “When I am afraid, I will put my trust in You. For in God, whose word I praise, in God I have put my trust; I shall not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?” Psalm 56:3-4, (NASV) Be merciful to my children, oh God, for their enemies pursue and attack them. When they are afraid and evil men conspire against them, help them to trust in You. Slay their enemies, record my children’s pleas, and count each tear. May they trust in You, oh God, and not fear. Stir them to thanksgiving and praise each time You answer. OH God, deliver my children’s souls from death and keep their feet from stumbling. “Cast your burden upon the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.” Psalm 55:22, (NASV)
When my children praise You, oh Lord, do not ignore their pleas. Hear and answer their cries of troubled anguish. When terrors assail, fears torment, and horrors overwhelm, help them flee on the wings of a dove to find refuge. Hear their calls and save them, oh Lord. Rain confusion and destruction upon their enemies, I pray. When they cry out with distress, oh Lord, hear their voices. In the raging battle, ransom them unharmed and afflict all who attack them. Help them cast their cares upon You, oh God, while You uphold them, never allowing them to be shaken. In the same manner, Lord God, I pray You will destroy deceitful and bloodthirsty men as my children trust in You. |
