__ Daniel 4
O Father, You reveal the truth to people according to Your great plan. You have shown amazing signs and wonders, and You have humbled the hearts of the proudest men. Your prophets have spoken to us a Word from You. We have heard things that we never could have known. Many of these things have touched on important matters that have changed our lives. We have learned that You have created the heavens and the earth. We have been told that even a sparrow does not fall to the ground unless You have decreed this. We have heard the message of our abundant redemption through Jesus Christ. We have found the way to every spiritual blessing through Your Son. You have spoken to us sure words about our eternal security. There is a King who is far above all the rulers of this world, and we have heard of Him and have eagerly received Him. There is a way for us to worship You through this great King. We know that our sins are forgiven. We have learned that heaven rules. We have been shown the way of righteousness. All of this is a great help to us in our lives. We are so thankful for Your servants who have brought us the Word of truth. Through this wonderful blessing of a godly message, we have been kept from great foolishness and pride. You have rescued us from all kinds of dangerous thinking and behavior. May we use all that we are and all that we have for Your purposes. May we extol You forever, for You are able to bring low all those who walk in pride, and to lift up all those who walk humbly with You.
__ Psalm 11
Lord God, You are the refuge of Your people. Will we be forced to run from men and angels who pursue us? You are safe in heaven and we are secure in You. We know that the day of rescue will come. We will see Your Son. We will behold His face.

__ Psalm 118
O Lord, You are so very good. You are a God of covenant faithfulness. When we cry out to You, You hear us. Your servants need You every day. When our situation is desperate, You are able to help us, and You do help us. You discipline Your children, but You do not give us over to everlasting destruction. Your Son took the death and hell that we deserved. He was rejected by men. More than that He faced the full weight of our just penalty upon the cross. The death that He died Has brought life to us. His sacrifice was completely acceptable to You. He has won for us an everlasting salvation.
