Lament 26 - Psalm 139, Psalm 141 and Psalm 142
Wednesday Feb 17, 2021
Wednesday Feb 17, 2021
Readings and Prayers of Lament
25. Psalm 139, Psalm 141 and Psalm 142
I am sure you are aware that we are in the grip of the Corona Virus pandemic. With that in mind, in this series leading up to Easter, where we are reading Scripture together, particularly Psalms of lament and repentance as well as the book of Lamentations. As each Scripture is read, listen in an attitude of prayer, and perhaps repeat the words to yourself. Feel the very raw emotions of the words and agony of the original writer and at the heart of God Himself. Yet also listen out for those little words of joy and hope that are hidden within. Then after listening, pray to God using that piece of Scripture.

Today we are reading and praying together Psalm 139, Psalm 141 & Psalm 142.
Psalm 139
1 You have searched me, LORD,
and you know me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
Psalm 141
1 I call to you, LORD, come quickly to me;
hear me when I call to you.
2 May my prayer be set before you like incense;
may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice.
Psalm 142
1 I cry aloud to the LORD;
I lift up my voice to the LORD for mercy.
2 I pour out before him my complaint;
before him I tell my trouble.

from the grasp of those who are evil and cruel.

Psalm 42
1 As the deer pants for streams of water,
so my soul pants for you, my God.

“Where is your God?”
Psalm 43
1 Vindicate me, my God,

Why must I go about mourning,
oppressed by the enemy?
Psalm 53
1 The fool says in his heart,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt, and their ways are vile;
there is no one who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven
on all mankind
to see if there are any who understand,
any who seek God.
3 Everyone has turned away, all have become corrupt;
there is no one who does good,
not even one.

and restores them from their bed of illness.

they trusted and you delivered them.
5 To you they cried out and were saved;
in you they trusted and were not put to shame.
