PRAYING SCRIPTURE
Psalm 129:1–2
A life of faith in God is like a pilgrimage that requires a lifetime of obedience. Storms and enemies are plentiful on the way. Perhaps this is why Paul wrote that one fruit of the Holy Spirit is patience (Gal 5:22). Patience is related to other biblical virtues, such as endurance, perseverance, faithfulness, and self-control. Psalm 129 provides words for prayer when we need to persevere despite hate and opposition. Ask God to give you the patience to wait for His solutions to your problems. Pray that you will be faithful in affliction.

Historically, the Psalms of Ascent were songs worshipers sang as they traveled to the temple or national festivals. Excerpts are from The Abide Bible, which provides various Scripture engagement tools--including praying, journaling, contemplating, and more--to help you meet God in God's Word so He can transform your life.
