PRAYING SCRIPTURE
Psalm 120:1–2
This is the first of what some call the Songs of Ascent. The people of Israel sang these while walking to Jerusalem for the three national worship celebrations (the Feasts of Passover, Weeks, and Temporary Shelters). Imagine singing these songs with Jesus as you traveled to the Feast of the Passover (Luke 2:41−52). Looking closer at this psalm, we can see that the theme of deceit is prominent. The psalmist asked God for deliverance from lies.
Pray through this psalm and consider the outcomes of falsehood in your personal relationships and your culture. Ask God to help you discern the truth and establish His Word as your guide.
