Day 11.

Read Psalm 11 today.

What does the Lord hate?
What does the Lord love?
​
God hates wickedness and loves righteousness.

As you reflect on this, pray in these ways and any other way the Holy Spirit leads.

That we would be people who hate wickedness and violence and would stand against it.
That we would not show favoritism to different races, ages, and genders, but would fight against any violence against anyone.
That we would love what is right and good.
That we would choose to live according to what is right and good no matter how big or small the situation, no matter whether people will see it or not.
 
Song of the Steadfast

For the Pure and Shining One by King David

The Advice to Flee
1  My faith shelters my soul continually in Yahweh.
Why would you say to me:
“Run away while you can!
Fly away like a bird to hide in the mountains for safety.
2  For your enemies have prepared a trap for you!
Can’t you see them hiding
in their place of darkness and shadows?
They’re set against all those who live upright lives.
3  What can the righteous accomplish
when truth’s pillars are destroyed and law and order collapse?”

The Answer of Faith
4  Yet Yahweh is never shaken 
he is still found in his temple of holiness,
reigning as King Yahweh over all.
He closely watches and examines everything man does.
With a glance, his eyes examine every heart,
for his heavenly rule will prevail over all.
5  Yahweh tests both the righteous and the wicked.
God’s very soul detests lovers of violence.
6  He will rain down upon them judgment for their sins.
A scorching wind will be their lot in life.
7  But remember this: Yahweh is the Righteous One who loves
justice, and every godly one
will gaze upon his face!
