Psalm 5

For the director of music. For flutes. A psalm of David.

1Give ear to my words, O LORD,
consider my sighing.

2Listen to my cry for help,
my King and my God,
for to you I pray.

3In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait in expectation.

4You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil;
with you the wicked cannot dwell.

5The arrogant cannot stand in your presence;
you hate all who do wrong.

6You destroy those who tell lies;
bloodthirsty and deceitful men
the LORD abhors.

7But I, by your great mercy,
will come into your house;
in reverence will I bow down
toward your holy temple.

8Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness
because of my enemies—
make straight your way before me.

9Not a word from their mouth can be trusted;
their heart is filled with destruction.
Their throat is an open grave;
with their tongue they speak deceit.

10Declare them guilty, O God!
Let their intrigues be their downfall.
Banish them for their many sins,
for they have rebelled against you.

11But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
that those who love your name may rejoice in you.

12For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield.

The Bible teaches about morning prayer, laying your requests in front of God first thing and dedicating your day to Him

As we awake at the early dawn, let us speak to God. Let Him be the first to hear our voice.

Pastor_Mac - (eBible Novice) 6 months ago.

Early in the morning, is the best time to pray, and have quiet time with the Father. Let your specific requests be made known with understanding and in the spirit speaking in tongues.
