Praying God’s Word Wednesday #57: Psalm 7:17

July 13, 2022 by Lauren Leave a Comment

It’s Gruntled Workers Day.  I PROMISE you I’m not making that up. And that’s the perfect day to pray Psalm 7:17 – a verse of praise! I love that there is such a day.  Not just because I was today years old when I learned that “gruntled” was a word (even though it makes perfect sense with the rules of grammar), but because it’s so happy!

 

Synonyms for “gruntled”?  Delighted, content, well pleased, cock-a-hoop (we don’t have time to get into that one), grateful and thankful.  I am buoyed just looking at that list.  Especially the one I know you are going to look up!  So I am choosing today to adopt a “gruntled” attitude and say a prayer of praise and thanksgiving to the Lord.  Let’s do it together!

 

I will give thanks to the Lord because of his righteousness;
    I will sing the praises of the name of the Lord Most High. 

Psalm 7:17  NIV

 

 

Lord Most High, only You are righteous.  Thank You for sacrificing Your Son so I could be counted as such.  I don’t deserve this and many other gifts You give.  But You deserve all of my thanks and praise.  I love You and revere Your name.  Thank You, thank You, thank You for calling me Yours.  Amen.  

 

Won’t you praise our wonderful God with me?

 

Praying for you in this.  And don’t forget to share on social media or with a friend who could benefit.  It would mean so much to me.  And if you don’t want to miss a Praying God’s Word Wednesday, subscribe over on the right hand side of this page.

About Me

I love Jesus, my husband and caffeine. The order of these can change depending on how tired I am. When my two daughters, stepson, and 4 grandchildren get to be too much, I practice yoga. God graciously allows me to share our adventures, victories and flub-ups from my laptop. May He be glorified here.
