Let my prayer rise before you as incense

Rev. Shawn Kumm, Christ the King Lutheran Church, Cody, Wyoming joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study and pray Psalm 141. “Hurry, listen to me!”  David pleads with the LORD.  It is clear that David trusted in the LORD to not only hear him, but will answer.  He asks the LORD to protect him from breaking His commands by His words, actions, and thoughts---and God provides a way.  We should pray in the same way because we are tempted to fall into evil delicacies and by His grace, He will preserve us and pull our eyes back to Himself.  “LORD God, help me to pray.  Listen to me, for temptations surround me.  Bring my eyes, heart, and ears back to You and preserve me in Your grace.  Amen”
