Ashley Kavanaugh, Judge Kavanaugh’s wife, asked her Christian family and friends to pray Psalm 40 over her family and also pray it for the nation. I am passing this along to you and hope you pass it to other saints that pray.
Psalm 40: 1 I waited patiently for the LORD; And He inclined to me, and heard my cry.
2 He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps.
3 He has put a new song in my mouth – Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the LORD.
4 Blessed is that man who makes the LORD his trust, And does not respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
5 Many, O LORD my God, are Your wonderful works which You have done; And Your thoughts toward us Cannot be recounted to You in order; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered.
6 Sacrifice and offering You did not desire; My ears You have opened. Burnt offering and sin offering You did not require.
7 Then I said, “Behold, I come; In the scroll of the book it is written of me.
8 I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is within my heart.”
9 I have proclaimed the good news of righteousness in the great assembly; Indeed, I do not restrain my lips, O LORD, You Yourself know.
10 I have not hidden Your righteousness within my heart; I have declared Your faithfulness and Your salvation; I have not concealed Your lovingkindness and Your truth From the great assembly.
11 Do not withhold Your tender mercies from me, O LORD; Let Your lovingkindness and Your truth continually preserve me.
12 For innumerable evils have surrounded me; My iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up; They are more than the hairs of my head; Therefore my heart fails me.
13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; O LORD, make haste to help me!
14 Let them be ashamed and brought to mutual confusion Who seek to destroy my life; Let them be driven backward and brought to dishonor Who wish me evil.
15 Let them be confounded because of their shame, Who say to me, “Aha, aha!”
16 Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; Let such as love Your salvation say continually, “The LORD be magnified!”
17 But I am poor and needy; Yet the Lord thinks upon me. You are my help and my deliverer; Do not delay, O my God.
FEAR OF THE LORD
What is the fear of the Lord?
- Leaning your whole personality (who you are and your life) fully into God
- A holy reverence for God even though He is our Father
- A daily dying of self as bondservants of the Lord Jesus Christ
- Offering our bodies as living sacrifices
- A laying down of your life on behalf of the One who laid down His for you
- Following God’s will, God’s ways, and God’s Word, no matter what the consequences
- Trusting in the LORD with all your heart and leaning not on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6)
