Psalm 88.13
The word “prevent” here means, “to meet, hasten, or to be in front of”, and the Psalmist here is speaking to the Lord from his heart in saying that his prayer is going to be in front of the Lord. It is going to go meet the Lord. His prayer is going to be going early in the morning to the Lord!
Could we start praying as soon as we wake up in the morning? However we wake up, or for whatever reason, could we start praying immediately when we wake up?
James 4.7b
The Bible tells us a few things about the devil, and one of them is that he is a counterfeit, and the master of disguise.
“And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.” 2 Corinthians 11:14
Deuteronomy 17:16
Don’t go back! The Lord was reminding the Jews that they had been freed from captivity in Egypt – don’t go back!
It’s the same when a person becomes a born again Christian. Free from captivity to sin, free from the sin of bad habits, bad attitudes, sadness, selfishness, loneliness, and a life full of trouble!
Whenever I come across this verse, I find that I need it!
There are times when we seem to go, go, go! But we wonder whether we are getting anywhere. Sometimes we give a lot of ourselves doing what we believe the Lord has asked us to do - and we are worn out!
