I bless the Lord at all times, I continually declare praise to Him. (Psalm 34:1)

I magnify Jesus and exalt His name as I proclaim it to others who have ears to hear and rejoice. (Psalm 34:2,3)

I seek the Lord and He answers me and delivers me from all my fears. (Psalm 34:4)

The angel of the Lord encamps around me and rescues me from all my troubles as I call out to the Lord. (Psalm 34:6,7)

I consider and see that the LORD is always good; I am blessed as I take refuge in Him. (Psalm 34:8)

The young lions do lack and suffer hunger but a lifestyle of seeking and trusting the Lord keeps me from lack and want. (Psalm 34:10)

I never suffer guilt, shame, or condemnation since I am redeemed by the blood of Jesus and my life is in Him. (Psalm 34:22)

The Lord prospers me in body, soul, and spirit as I magnify, proclaim, rejoice, and praise His name. (Psalm 35:27)

Your lovingkindness, O Lord, extends to the heavens, Your faithfulness reaches to the skies, Your righteousness is in the Lord Jesus Christ and I am in Him. (Psalm 36:5,6)

I drink from Your refreshing stream, for You are the fountain of Life, and in Your light, I see the light that You give me. (Psalm 36:8,9)


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.
