A Prayer for Ukraine

8 Comments/ 271/ 1

Psalm 27

A Psalm of David.

1 The Lord is my light and my salvation;
    whom will I fear?
The Lord is the strength of my life;
    of whom will I be afraid?

2 When the wicked came against me
    to eat my flesh—
my enemies and my foes—
    they stumbled and fell.
3 Though an army should encamp against me,
    my heart will not fear;
though war should rise against me,
    in this will I be confident.

4 One thing I have asked from the Lord,
    that will I seek after—
for me to dwell in the house of the Lord
    all the days of my life,
to see the beauty of the Lord,
    and to inquire in His temple.
5 For in the time of trouble
    He will hide me in His pavilion;
in the shelter of His tabernacle He will hide me;
    He will set me up on a rock.

6 Now my head will be lifted up
    above my enemies encircling me;
therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;
    I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.

7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice!
    Be gracious to me and answer me.
8 When You said, “Seek My face,”
    my heart said to You, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.”
9 Do not hide Your face far from me;
    do not thrust Your servant away in anger;
    You have been my help.
Do not leave me nor forsake me,
    O God of my salvation.
10 If my father and my mother forsake me,
    then the Lord will take me in.
11 Teach me Your way, O Lord,
    and lead me in an upright path,
    because of my enemies.
12 Do not deliver me to the will of my enemies;
    for false witnesses have risen against me,
    and they breathe out violence.

13 I believe
    I will see the goodness of the Lord
    in the land of the living.
14 Wait on the Lord;
    be strong, and may your heart be stout;
    wait on the Lord.

    We need to storm the gates of heaven with our prayers for Ukraine and especially for those sisters and brothers in Christ that their faith will remain strong no matter what.

    Thank you for sharing this Psalm, which just happened to be a reading in my morning devotional from “Portals of Prayer.” The devotional was written long before the invasion. But how fitting that this particular Psalm was chosen for today. God at work. Prayers ascend for the people of Ukraine and the world…for protection and for peace to return.

    I also wrote about Ukraine today…a Helbling family connection.
