God has us

Lord, You have searched me and known me.
You know when I sit down
and when I stand up;
You understand my thoughts
from far away.
You observe my travels and my rest;
You are aware of all my ways.
Before a word is on my tongue,
You know all about it, Lord.
You have encircled me;
You have placed Your hand on me.
This extraordinary knowledge is beyond me.
It is lofty;
I am unable to reach it.

Psalm 139

Remember this and be brave;
take it to heart, you transgressors!
Remember what happened long ago,
for I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and no one is like Me.
I declare the end from the beginning,
and from long go what is not yet done,
saying: My plan will take place,
and I will do all My will.

Isaiah 46

Wait for the Lord

The Lord is my light and my salvation,
whom should I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life,
of whom should I be afraid...

I have asked one thing from the Lord;
it is what I desire:
to dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
gazing on the beauty of the Lord
and seeking Him in His temple...

I am certain that I will see the Lord's
goodness in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord;
be courageous and let your heart be strong.
Wait for the Lord.

Psalm 27

Make Your ways known to me, Lord;
teach me Your paths.
Guide me in Your truth and teach me,
for Your are the God of my salvation;
I wait for You all day long.
Remember, Lord, Your compassion
and Your faithful love,
for they have existed from antiquity.
Do not remember the sins of my youth
or my acts of rebellion;
in keeping with Your faithful love,
remember me
because of Your goodness, Lord.

Psalm 25

Coming before the Lord

Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord?
Who may stand in His holy place?
The one who has clean hands
and a pure heart,
who has not set his mind on what is false,
and who has not sworn deceitfully.
He will receive blessing from the Lord,
and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
Such is the generation of those who seek Him,
who seek the face of the God of Jacob.

Psalm 24

Everlasting God

Who will you compare Me too,
who is My equal?"
asks the Holy One.
Look up and see:
who created these?
He brings out the starry host by number;
He calls all of them by name.
Because of His great power and strength,
not one of them is missing...

Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
Yahweh is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the whole earth.
He never grows faint or weary;
there is no limit to His understanding.
He gives strength to the weary
and strengthens the powerless.
Youths may faint
and grow weary,
and young men stumble and fall,
but those who trust in the Lord
will renew their strength;
they will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary;
they will walk and not faint.

Isaiah 40

From someone much wiser than me

For the Lord will be your everlasting light
and your God will be your glory.

Isaiah 60

This is the way

Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you;
he rises to show you compassion.
For the Lord is a God of justice.
Blessed are all who wait for him!

O people of Zion,
who live in Jerusalem,
you will weep no more.
How gracious he will be
when you cry for help!
As soon as he hears,
he will answer you...

Whether you turn to the right or to the left,
your ears will hear a voice behind you saying,
"This is the way; walk in it."

Isaiah 30:18,19,21

The earth is the Lord's
and everything in it,
the world, and all who live in it;
for he founded it upon the seas
and established it upon the water.

Who may ascend the hill of the Lord?
Who may stand in his holy place?
He who has cleans hands
and a pure heart,
who does not lift up his soul
to an idol
or swear by what is false.

Psalm 24:1-4
