“Bow down Your heavens, O Lord, and come down; touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.  Flash forth lightning and scatter them; shoot out Your arrows and destroy them.”  (Psalm 144:5-6)

The day will come when all wickedness will be judged.  The Lord is Sovereign and this age is fleeting.  Do not be alarmed, for the Lord has spoken of these things, but instead be uplifted by the continuous presence of the Lord and know His promises.  Wickedness shall forever be banished and the goodness of the Lord shall reign forever.  Walk in the way of the upright.

Lord, lead me in the way of righteousness.  Guide me according to Your goodness and mercy to not seek vengeance, but to trust in the truth of Your Word.  Guide me, O Lord, in the way of the righteous and lift up my countenance to look to You alone for all things.  You are God and there is no other.  You know all things and everything is in Your hands.  Lead me now and always.

Lord Jesus, You have come to show the way through this life of heartache into Your presence.  Lead me now and always to see through the haze of this age and live according to the goodness of Your Word.  Teach me this day those things which lead me in the right direction.  Help me to see that You have the words of eternal life and to abide by the Word You have given me.  Amen.
