David's Song of Victory



"The Lord is my protector;
He is my strong fortress.
My God is my protection,
and with him I am safe.
He protects me like a shield;
He defends me and keeps me safe.
He is my saviour;
He protects me and saves me from violence.
I call to the Lord,
and he saves me from my enemies.
Praise the Lord,
The waves of death were all around me;
The waves of destruction rolled over me.
The danger of death was round me
And the grave set its trap for me.
In my trouble I called to the Lord;
I called to my God for help.
In his temple he heard my voice;
He listened to my cry for help."

2 Samuel - 22: 2 - 7

Hannah's Prayer



;




The Lord has filled my heart with joy,
How happy I am because of what he has done!
I laugh at my enemies;
How Joyful I am because God has helped me!

No one is holy like the Lord;
There is none like Him
No protector like our God.

Stop your loud boasting;
Silence your proud words.
For the Lord is a God who knows,
And he judges all that people do.

The bows of strong soldiers are broken,
But the weak grow strong.
The people who once were well fed
Now hire themselves out to get food,
But the hungry are no more.

The childless wife has borne seven children,
But the mother of many is left with none.

The Lord kills and restores to life;
He sends people to the world of the dead
And brings them back again.

He makes some men poor and others rich;
He humbles some and makes others great.

He lifts the poor from the dust
and raises the needy from their misery.
He makes them companions of princes
And puts them in places of honour.

The foundations of the earth belong to the Lord;
on them he has built the world.

He protects the lives of his faithful people,
But the wicked disappear in darkness;
A man does not triumph by his own strength.

The Lord's enemies will be destroyed;
He will thunder against them from heaven.

The Lord will judge the whole world;
He will give power to his king,
He will make his chosen king
Victorious."

1 Samuel- 2: 1-10

The Song of Praise.



“Listen, you kings!
Pay attention, you rulers!
I will sing, I will play music to Israel’s God, the Lord.
Lord, when you left the mountains of Seir,
When you came out of the region of Edom,
The earth shook, and rain fell from the sky.
Yes, water poured down from the clouds.
The mountains quaked before the Lord of Sinai,
Before the Lord, the God of Israel.”
Judges 5:3-5

Blessings for Obedience



“If you live according to my laws and obey my commands, I will send you rain at the right time, so that the land will produce crops and the trees will bear fruit. Your crops will be so plentiful that you will still be harvesting corn when it is time to pick grapes, and you will still be picking grapes when it is time to sow corn. You will have all that you want to eat, and you will live in safety in your land.”


Leviticus 26:3-5
