Title Words We must save this.

You must save this. (Psalm 141)
We cannot live without prayer.
It's like living in the world and living alone, independent of everything else.
You will never be able to live like that. The reason is that everything in the world is related to each other, so if you cut it off, it separates and separates, and separation leads to isolation.
So we must live in a relationship.
But living in the world has so many miracles. It is a miracle that you are still living even after you have broken up. In other words, there is a miracle that we are still living even though our relationship with God has been cut off because we did not pray.
Perhaps the answer to this is God's love. Maybe you are living your last chance.
Are you not living in your last chance?
Relationships are life-sustaining. Relationships are therefore essential.
Prayer is the most important key to maintaining that relationship. Without it, it's a crappy relationship. It's a fake relationship. There are so many people who say they are Christians and churchgoers, but do not see the image of the saints, but they are fakes. They are deceiving the world. I am a Christian, I am a Christian. I am a saint Saying that.
The real thing is the people in the relationship. They are those who have a relationship with God.
It's those who pray.
There are things we need to ask for when we pray.
Today's text is David's prayer asking God to protect him from his enemies and deliver him from temptation.
The first dalak asks for help in verses 1-2, the second dalak is a prayer asking for protection in verses 3-4, and the third dalak seems to be a plea for the wicked, but the Hebrew text is ambiguous. But I see counsel as seeking grace to receive grace.
Then, based on this text, we will look at how and what to seek.
The prayer for help in verses 1-2 is inclusive. It is a plea to listen to our prayers, and it also speaks of our prayer posture.
And now, the things we need to ask for. The things David asks for in today's text seem to be quite different from ours.
The first is the desire to protect your lips. We want to protect our language. That's not to say that all mouths are open. It's animals. It is like a dog that barks without thinking and only leans toward its own emotions. In the world there are things to say and things not to say. If you don't even think about that and just say what you think, then the relationship can't last. I have to live alone. And sooner or later, you will wither to death. So David prays that God will keep my words when I speak. I hope that you, too, will become such prayers so that you will be able to speak well and be considerate, understand, and love others, and be able to speak words that can give strength and courage to those who are related to me through my words.
The second thing we ask for is that we don't do evil.
Evil, as a noun, can refer to a lack of quality or inferior qualities in a thing or person that does not meet the standards of value or cannot serve a beneficial role.
Lesha also represents a kind of life that is contrary to the character of God (Job 34:10; Ps. 5:4; Ps. 45:7), and describes the pronouncements of accusations and judgments (Isa. 6:10-11).
While David and Saul were meeting, David said that he could not harm the king. Because it will be Lesha.
In addition, these sins are combined with injustice (Ecclesiastes 3:16), violence (Isaiah 58:4), and dishonesty in the marketplace (Micah 6:10-11).
Third, we ask that we have an attitude that accepts counsel.
Even if a righteous person strikes me or rebukes me, I want it to be counted as grace.
Whom do we listen to and what do we intercede, and how do we receive it?
David says, “I will pray” at the end of verse 5 when he has a different opinion about it.
It is not that I confront, ignore, and bow my head to those who counsel and mediate, but I pray to God.
David, who won this relationship with God, eventually became the king of Israel as we all know and became a great figure in the history of Christianity and the history of mankind.
I hope you have the wisdom to ask for what you want and forsake what you want to throw away.
The bottom line is that what you ask for, what you hope for, and what you should not have all start with your relationship with God. This is the basis of the believer, and this is our essence.
Let's pray. If you and I have difficult problems and unresolved problems, we believe that he is the One who adds redemption and grace to all that he has created, by putting God first, not as a third helper, but above our hopes and desires. Let's leave it to by prayer.
