My Psalm 212 God Victorious
O Lord, Almighty, Giver of life, Master of Death,
We praise You for showing us courage
In times of trial.
We thank You for Your Word,
For stories of inspiration and faith,
For times when Your people called on Your Name,
Knowing You were with them in battle,
And showed Your power to the enemy.
We thank You for David, who without armor and sword
Attacked the braggart Goliath
With faith, not just a stone,
And in the presence of enemies and armies
Saved the day for Israel.
Teach us this day to say, “The Lord Almighty will save us.
Let us allow Him to solve our biggest battles.
Give the Lord of the Universe the opportunity
To show His Power.”
And let us, once more, see the mighty torrents of Your power
Pour forth over our trivial challenges,
Winning the battles of our lives through Your efforts on our behalf.
For indeed, nothing, no nothing, is too big for You, Lord.
If You can rule the waves, or withhold rain, or change the seasons,
You can solve the difficulties we bring to You in prayer with thanksgiving,
Knowing that You have the solution we cannot even imagine.
And so, Lord, grant us the answers we seek to challenges too big for us.
Bring us through our battles to victories we cannot even fathom in our finite minds,
That we may sing and bring melody to Your Eternal Name
For You are glorified in accomplishing the impossible
Through Your servants who have faith in You
And ask to be used of You to Your glory.
In this day, show us the battles to be won,
And give us the words to speak, the actions to accomplish,
And most of all, the will to be used by Your mighty hand to Your glory. Amen.
