Let us not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious toward wrongdoers, for they will wither quickly like the grass and fade like the green herb. Let us trust in you and do good, to dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.

Let us not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious toward wrongdoers, for they will wither quickly like the grass and fade like the green herb. Let us trust in you and do good, to dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.
Lord, thank you for your promise that when we delight ourselves in you that you will give us the desires of our hearts.
May we commit our way to you, Lord, and trust in you. As we are faithful and because you are faithful, we believe that your righteousness in us will shine brightly as the noon day sun.
Lord, help us rest in you and wait patiently for you. Do not let us worry because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. Help us cease from anger and forsake wrath. Remind us that burning anger leads only to evildoing and that evildoers will be punished.
Thank you for your word that reminds us that those who wait for you will inherit the land and delight in abundant prosperity.
I started reading Ps 91 on Jan 2, 2022. I read it every day and have it commited to memory, which I have found very comforting. There is a verse, “Just open your eyes and see how the wicked are punished.” It has occurred to me that I do not personally know anyone who is ‘wicked’ so I have not seen the wicked punished. But, God knows each heart and I trust him to fulfill this by punishing those he knows are wicked. I am glad he has them!
A prayer adapted from Psalm 37:
Dear Father,
Let us not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious toward wrongdoers, for they will wither quickly like the grass and fade like the green herb. Let us trust in you and do good, to dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.
Lord, thank you for your promise that when we delight ourselves in you that you will give us the desires of our hearts.
May we commit our way to you, Lord, and trust in you. As we are faithful and because you are faithful, we believe that your righteousness in us will shine brightly as the noon day sun.
Lord, help us rest in you and wait patiently for you. Do not let us worry because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. Help us cease from anger and forsake wrath. Remind us that burning anger leads only to evildoing and that evildoers will be punished.
Thank you for your word that reminds us that those who wait for you will inherit the land and delight in abundant prosperity.
May we be faithful, joyful, and patient.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
Thank you Janice. I love this Psalm, especially this verse….
I have been young and now I am old,
Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken
Or his descendants begging bread.
PS 37:25
Amen.
This is...so wonderful. Thank you, Janice. You read the room exceptionally well!
Had it in a note on my phone and landed on it at 4:30 this morning. God doing His thing . . .
It never ceases to amaze me -Janice; finding the exact, calming scripture needed. Thank you for this prayer.
Thanks, Janice.
