Intercede for Stubborn People (6/26-27)

Psalm 78:7 "That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments.”

Prayer to our Lord God from Psalm 78.

O Lord God, the children of Israel forgot You.
            Help us not to be stubborn.
Their spirit were not steadfast with You.
            Help us to stay faithful to You.
The children of Israel did not keep the covenant with You!
            Help us to study Your Word and keep our Covenant with You.
The children of Israel forgot Your wonders and Your miracles.
            Help us to remember that:
a)  You divided the Red Sea and caused them to pass through.
b)  You led them through the day with clouds to keep them cool and night with
           a light of fire to keep them warm.
c)  You brought streams of the rock, and caused the water to run down like rivers 

           so 2.5 millions of Your Israelite children could drink the cool water.
d)  You rained down manna so they could eat and it tasted like angels' food.
e)  You have done many miracles and nothing is too hard for You.

So You Lord God, being full of compassion, forgave their sins and destroyed

them not because You remembered that they were flesh like a wind that passed 
away and not come again.

Thank You for the Holy Spirit that You sent to help us stay true and faithful to You. 

You sent Your Words and healed us in Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.


Song: How Great is Our God
How great is our God,
How great is His name.
He's the greatest One,
Forever the same.
He rolled back the waters
Of the mighty Red Sea
And He said, "I'm going to lead you,
Put your trust in Me."
