My God, Thank You For Lifting Me Up

May 4 Scripture Meditations Based on Psalms 29-32 Key Verse – Psalm 30:1 I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.
MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR LIFTING ME UP Thank You for lifting me up with Your might Upon Your power of majestic delight… Against intoxicating filthiness, obnoxious in Your sight From weakening sinfulness toward Your righteous light. Thank You for lifting me up with Your voice Upon Your calling vanquishing humanistic noise… Against alluring vanities of arrogant, yet shaky poise From tempting worldliness toward Your holiness’ choice Thank You for lifting me up with Your strengthening Upon Your might of heavenly investment-shining… Against crashing sluggardness along slothfulness’ pining From debilitating idleness toward Your diligent service-refining. Thank You for lifting me up with Your favour Upon Your compassion of kindness of kind sharing endeavour… Against poisoning hatred full of bitterness’ savour From condemning failure toward Your loving care’s fervour. Thank You for lifting me up with Your deliverance Upon Your security-help of truth-endurance… Against troubling adversities and vexing doubt-provoked ignorance From deceiving adversaries toward Your triumphant assurance. Thank You for lifting me up with Your forgiveness Upon Your mercy of patience and gentle graciousness… Against provoking transgressions caused by iniquities’ perverseness From discouraging guiltiness toward Your complete pardon’s goodness.
