Psalm 94

Psalm 94 Prayer Points

O Lord, God of vengeance, shine forth! Rise up, O judge of the earth; repay to the proud what they deserve! O Lord, how long shall the wicked exult? They pour out their arrogant words; all the evildoers boast. They crush your people, O Lord, and afflict your heritage. They kill the widow and the sojourner, and murder the fatherless; and they say, “The Lord does not see; the God of Jacob does not perceive.” But they are fools, O God, for you are the one who has planted their ears; surely you hear all things. And you who have formed their eyes most definitely see all things.  You will discipline the nations and will rebuke the peoples, for you know the thoughts of men and what is in their hearts.  Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O Lord, and whom you teach out of your law, to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked. For you, O Lord, will not forsake your people; you will not abandon your heritage; for you will give justice to the righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it. You rise up for us against the wicked.  You stand up for us against evildoers. You alone are our help in times of trouble, and it is you who holds us up by your steadfast love. When the cares of our hearts are many, your consolations cheer our soul. You are our comforter and you have become our stronghold and our rock of refuge.  You, O Lord, will bring judgment against the wicked who band together against the life of the righteous and who condemn the innocent to death.  You will bring back upon them their iniquity and wipe them out for their wickedness.  Surely, you will wipe them out.
