O Lord, 78 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 3: how great are thy works and thy thoughts are very deep? 79 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 3: A brutish man knoweth not. Neither doth a fool understand this. 80 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 3: When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all 81 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 3: the workers of iniquity do flourish, it is that they 82 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 3: shall be destroyed forever. But Thou Lord art most high, 83 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 3: for evermore, For lo thine enemies, O Lord, for lo 84 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 3: thine enemies shall perish. All the workers of iniquity shall 85 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 3: be scattered. But my horn shalt thou exalt like the 86 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 3: horn of an unicorn.

The righteous shall flourish like 90 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 3: the palm tree. He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. 91 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 3: Those that be planted in the house of the Lord 92 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 3: shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall 93 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 3: still bring forth fruit in old age. They shall be 94 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 3: fat and flourishing. To shew that the Lord is upright. 95 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 3: He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him. 96 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 3: Meditate on the faithfulness of the Lord.

Feel 99 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 3: your heart pump to the music of wonder and joy 100 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 3: playing in your soul. Here your spirit shall praisest the Lord. 101 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 3: Take a deep breath, lift your burdens to the Lord. 102 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 3: Exhale slowly, and allow his glory to fill your heart 103 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 3: and mind with sweet melodies of his faithfulness. Breathe in 104 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 3: and out slowly. Flourish in the Lord's presence. Allow his 105 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 3: provision to sustain you every day and every night, keeping 106 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 3: you healthy for life.

Firmly 109 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 3: root yourself in God's word, and he will rejuvenate your mind, body, 110 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 3: and soul. Think of the last time you spent praising 111 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 3: the Lord during prayer. If your prayers are filled with 112 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 3: more asking than thanksgiving, ask him to fi your heart 113 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 3: with gratitude and your mind with positive thoughts. Confess the 114 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 3: times when you grumbled and complained rather than humbled and praised. 115 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 3: Breathe in his forgiveness.

Know 116 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: the Lord is patient with you, and he will spend 117 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 3: a lifetime giving you the nourishment you need to help 118 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 3: you grow into the person He created you to be. 119 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 3: Praise the name of the Lord. Rejoice in his love 120 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 3: and faithfulness. Thank Him for the wonderful things he has 121 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 3: done in your life. Thank Him for being the rock 122 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 3: on which you can stand. Think of a person who 123 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 3: needs to experience the joy and goodness of God. Pray 124 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 3: he will remind them of his wonderful works and of 125 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 3: his faithfulness in their life. Pray he will renew their 126 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 3: mind and spirit with his melody of love. Lift up 127 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 3: your requests to the Lord. Know he is faithful and 128 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 3: he is always working on your behalf. Pray God will 129 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 3: bring mature believers in your life to encourage you in 130 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 3: your walk with him. Pray God will teach you his 131 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 3: ways and help you grow in Him so that you 132 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 3: can stand tall and firm in the end. Pray God 133 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,719 Speaker 3: will fill your heart with his praise and help you 134 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 3: rest securely in the joy of His salvation. Take a 135 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 3: deep breath, allow your lungs to completely fill with air. 136 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 3: Breathe out slowly. Release any stress and tension in your muscles. 137 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 3: Relax your neck and shoulders as you unwind for the night. 138 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,599 Speaker 3: Drift off to sleep, listening to the sweet song of 139 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 3: the Lord's goodness and faithfulness playing in your heart.
