Hear My Prayer

Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged [relieved] me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer – Psalm 4:1.

As we approach You, God, we pray if there are any sins we may have committed against You, Your people or ourselves, we ask that You would show us our sins, forgive us of our sins, and deliver us from our sins. You are the God that we can confess our sins to, and Your Word has promised, If we confess our sins, He faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness according to Your word 1st John 1:9. Thank You for forgiving us of our confessed sins! Thank You for Your love and mercy. Thank You for Your compassion, and protection.

It doesn’t matter if the storms of life rage all around you, you can be sheltered in protection and peace when God is your Refuge. Too many times people make circumstances and situations their god rather than making God be God over every circumstance and situation.

Christianity is something that differs from religion. Religion is based on what you can do or not do to be saved by works. Christianity is doing what the Word of God instructs to do or not do. It does not pick and choose which Scriptures they will submit to. Basically, religion allows people who profess they are saved to continue to do what they were doing prior to accepting salvation.
