Praying that God guards the paths of justice in our upcoming elections. There is so much evidence of fraud and external interference. 🙏🏻 But, God..... 🙏🏻

Then you will discern righteousness and justice
And equity and every good course.
For wisdom will enter your heart
And knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
Discretion will guard you,
Understanding will watch over you,
To deliver you from the way of evil,
From the man who speaks perverse things;
From those who leave the paths of uprightness
To walk in the ways of darkness;
Who delight in doing evil
And rejoice in the perversity of evil;
Whose paths are crooked,
And who are devious in their ways;
…
So you will walk in the way of good men
And keep to the paths of the righteous.
For the upright will live in the land
And the blameless will remain in it;
But the wicked will be cut off from the land
And the treacherous will be uprooted from it.
— Proverbs 2:7-15, 20-22 NASB1995
I also like this one. Psalm 2:1-5
Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth take their stand,
and the rulers conspire together
against the Lord and his Anointed One:
3 “Let’s tear off their chains
and throw their ropes off of us.”
4 The one enthroned in heaven laughs;
the Lord ridicules them.
5 Then he speaks to them in his anger
and terrifies them in his wrath.
Must be some side-splitting laughter going on these days.
My version doesn’t have that last line. 😏😜

While I always call pray on PS. 46, it is 46:10… NIV I love: “Be still and know that I am God.”
Yes. How beautiful is that?
My favorite.
Oh, goodness. Yet another...Thank you, Janice.
