Psalm 126: God Will Turn Your Tears into Joy
<p> Only God has the final word about your life. One extraordinary promise is that eventually, in God’s timing and terms, God will turn your tears into joy. This is what the peace of Jesus Christ is about: all will be more than well at the end. Psalm 126 expresses this hope:</p> <p> “When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream. Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy; then it was said among the nations, ‘The LORD has done great things for them.’ The LORD has done great things for us, and we rejoiced. Restore our fortunes, O LORD, like the watercourses in the Negeb. May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy. Those who go out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, carrying their sheaves” (Ps 126:1-6). </p>

Praying Psalm 40:1-3 God Will Save You
<p> I turned to God long ago in desperation. My entire being shivered at the realization that without God, there was no possible solid ground upon which to build my life. As an agnostic finally searching for God, God found me, literally restoring my life. Later, the first time I read these words of David, I was filled with gratefulness:</p> <p> “I waited patiently for the Lord; he inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up from the desolate pit, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the Lord” (Psalm 40:1-3).</p> <p> That is just what God did for me, as God has done for countless others. And God can do so for you, if that is what you need. </p>

THE WHY OF PRAYER
<p> One of the most significant and often repeated questions is, “Why pray?” What is the purpose of prayer? What are you supposed to get out of it? Here are four goals of prayer: </p> <p> 1. Self-discovery: What do you seek? How strongly do you seek it? How long have you sought it? You can learn a great deal about yourself by examining your history of prayers to God. Though God knows your thoughts and needs before you do (Psalm 139:4; Matthew 6:8), you still have to voice them. It is essential to your well-being to let your desires, your hopes as well as your fears, become word. </p> <p> 2. Self-transformation: “Thy will be done<i>,</i>” said Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane before His arrest and crucifixion (Matthew 26:42). </p> <p>3. God-appeal: We cannot help but ask, even beg God for what we seek from God. </p> <p>4. God-encounter: This is the most important “why” of prayer. Prayer is the essential means to open us to the gift of God’s presence. </p>
