Psalm 121

I lift up my eyes to the hills –
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the LORD,
The Maker of heaven and earth.

He will not let your foot slip –
He who watches over you will not slumber;
Indeed, he who watches over Israel
Will neither slumber nor sleep.

The LORD watches over you—
The LORD is your shade at your right hand;
The sun will not harm you by day,
Nor the moon by night.

The LORD will keep you from all harm—
He will watch over your life;
The LORD will watch over your coming and going
Both now and forevermore.

Lord, I want to praise you for you are good. You are my help when I’m in need. You are the Maker of heaven and earth, all is created by you mighty Word and you gave them to us. You already prepare all that we need, even before we were created, our food, home, wonderful environment. We have no need not satisfied in you.

Lord, I want to praise you for your eternal guidance. You never sleep nor slumber – you watch over us all the time. You aware of what we are facing and challenge we are going into. You know for sure what we will need, and you supply it to us. You are always there watching us, and listening our prayers, and you know what we are in.

Lord, I want to praise you for your guarding. You always besides us, accompany us, holding our hands through the journey you had set before us. No matter how things change, you protect us. All the time you are with us and protecting us, in day time we are working, in night time when we are asleep. Whether we are aware or not, you are there protecting us and you are here with us.

Lord, I want to praise you for your preservation. You watch over us so that we are alive in you. You give us breath, you grant us lives. Wherever we go, you have your eyes on us. Whenever it is, you never have us outside your sight. You already guided us, and you are guarding us even now, an you will continue to watch over us till we see you in eternity.

Praise you my Lord, my Savior, my Rock, my Fortress, my Provider, my Friends, you the only God Lord the Creator of heaven and earth. In my Savior Lord Jesus Christ name, amen.

O Lord our God, you answered them;
You were to Israel a forgiving God, though you punished their misdeeds.
Exalt the Lord our God, and worship at his holy mountain,
For the Lord our God is holy. -- Psalm 99:8-9

Lord my God, praise you for you answer prayers. Your servant was praying for your guidance and mercy. You forgive and punished. Indeed that is just, for your servant sins against you and your people, and you are merciful righteous Judge.

Praise you for your holy name, praise you for you are Lord my God the Holy One. What am I, the least servant of you? Praise you for you still listening to your servant asking for your merciful acts, even when we sinned and not worthy to call your holy name. But you listened! What else can we say, other than praising you for your grace on your undeserving servant?

Lord my God, be gracious, again your little servant pray to you, when you punished us for our misdeeds, grant us strength to stand firm and lose no faith. Guard our hearts, lest that we lose hopes and despair and run away from you. Guide us through with your staff, shepherd us in your faithful grace.

Praise you, for you are Lord my God, the Holy One.
