28. Linger in Psalm 84 NLT "Joy In His Presence"

Welcome to the Linger podcast. Today we will be reading from ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Psalm 84 New Living Translation We are going to be lingering in the presence of God. He invites us to sit with Him, to be still, to cease striving and know that He is God. To linger means to abide, to remain, to stay for a length of time, to become affected by the presence of where we are staying. We will linger in scripture, in prayer, in breathing in and out the Word of God as we listen to Him, as we wait and listen for Holy Spirit to speak to us, and then pray what He is leading us to pray. . Psalm 84 New Living Translation⁠ For the choir director: A psalm of the descendants of Korah, to be accompanied by a stringed instrument. 1 How lovely is your dwelling place,    O Lord of Heaven’s Armies.2 I long, yes, I faint with longing    to enter the courts of the Lord.With my whole being, body and soul,    I will shout joyfully to the living God.3 Even the sparrow finds a home,    and the swallow builds her nest and raises her youngat a place near your altar,    O Lord of Heaven’s Armies, my King and my God!4 What joy for those who can live in your house,    always singing your praises. Interlude 5 What joy for those whose strength comes from the Lord,    who have set their minds on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem.6 When they walk through the Valley of Weeping,[b]    it will become a place of refreshing springs.    The autumn rains will clothe it with blessings.7 They will continue to grow stronger,    and each of them will appear before God in Jerusalem. 8 O Lord God of Heaven’s Armies, hear my prayer.    Listen, O God of Jacob. Interlude 9 O God, look with favor upon the king, our shield!    Show favor to the one you have anointed. 10 A single day in your courts    is better than a thousand anywhere else!I would rather be a gatekeeper in the house of my God    than live the good life in the homes of the wicked.11 For the Lord God is our sun and our shield.    He gives us grace and glory.The Lord will withhold no good thing    from those who do what is right.12 O Lord of Heaven’s Armies,    what joy for those who trust in you. . Breath Prayer from today's passage: (Taking slow breath in and releasing slow breath out.) Breathe in and say: "What joy for those" Breathe out: "whose strength comes from the Lord." (repeat) .
