You, Jesus, are my strong shield, and I trust you completely. You have helped me, and I will celebrate and thank you in song and praise. (Psalm 28:7)

As His anointed, the Lord is my strength and saving defender. (Psalm 28:8)

I am your inheritance, Lord Jesus, Shepherd me and lift me up forever! (Psalm 28:9)

I honor the Lord for the glory of His name and worship Him in the splendor of His holiness. (Psalm 29:2)

The God of glory thunders. The voice of the Lord is powerful and majestic and is over many waters. (Psalm 29:3,4)

In His presence I experience His glory. He is my King forever. (Psalm 29:9,10)

I exalt you, LORD, because you have not let Life's circumstances triumph over me. (Psalm 30:1)

I sing praises to you, Lord Jesus, and give thanks to the power of your holy name. (Psalm 30:4)

O Lord, I will never let prosperity move me from Your holy presence. (Psalm 30:6)

You have turned my mourning into dancing and clothed me with joy, O Lord my God, I will thank you forever. (Psalm 30:11,12)


Why pray the Psalm scriptures out loud?

It is hard to think about something other than what you are talking about. Praying out loud the scriptures solves the problem of the wandering mind. -- spoken words speak to the soul and have the power of raising thoughts in the soul. The Psalm scriptures speak of God in the Highest manner which most fully expresses the power and presence of God.

Strong's definition for "meditate" - HAGAH (Greek) - means to imagine. First pray the scripture out loud -- then pray the scripture back to God. This prayer can be the prayer of thanksgiving, supplication, or praying the greatness of God and the benefits of God.

The first thing that you are to do when you are upon your knees, is to shut your eyes, and with a short silence let your soul place itself in the presence of God.

When you direct any of your petitions to Jesus let it be: thou art the radiance of thy Father's glory. Thou art the Alpha and Omega, The beginning and the end of all things: Thou has destroyed the power of the devil and hast overcome death.
