The Earth be Filled with Your Glory?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who pray like the psalmist, David, “May the whole earth be filled with your glory.” In Jesus’ name, amen.
Psalm 72 is David’s prayer to God.
He concludes his prayer in the last verses of Psalm 72:17-20 (ESV):
“May his name endure forever,
his fame continue as long as the sun!
May people be blessed in him,
all nations call him blessed!
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
who alone does wondrous things.
Blessed be his glorious name forever;
may the whole earth be filled with his glory!
Amen and Amen!
The prayers of David, the son of Jesse, are ended.”
Can this last part of David’s prayer be an example for us today? David humbles himself. His prayer points others to God. God is the focus. Praise him. Now.
