A Psalm of David. O LORD, I call upon you; hasten to me! Give ear to my voice when I call to you! Let my prayer be counted as incense before you, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice! Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth; keep watch over the door of my lips! Do not let my heart incline to any evil, to busy myself with wicked deeds in company with men who work iniquity, and let me not eat of their delicacies!
Lord, the temptation in the next few days will be to turn to the advice of men rather than seeking Your face and Your word. Keep me in an attitude of prayer, keep me seeking Your will, keep me ever before You and seeking those ways that bring glory to Your name. Let me not eat of the false and deceptive delicacies of the world but only of the meat of Your Word.
