Psalms 90:13-17 (NLT) 90:13 O LORD, come back to us! How long will you delay? Take pity on your servants! 14 Satisfy us each morning with your unfailing love, so we may sing for joy to the end of our lives. 15 Give us gladness in proportion to our former misery! Replace the evil years with good. 16 Let us, your servants, see you work again; let our children see your glory. 17 And may the Lord our God show us his approval and make our efforts successful. Yes, make our efforts successful!
As I was reading this prayer this morning – I was struck by the directness and simplicity of it. It is a powerful prayer of faith for greater blessings ahead. Here are the basic components:
1) Come quickly
2) Take pity on us
3) Fill us every morning with your unfailing love
4) Let your gladness be greater then our misery
5) Replace the evil years with good
6) Let us see your glory – again
7) Let our children see your glory also
8) Make God’s approval be upon us
9) May our efforts be very successful
