May the favour[a] of the Lord our God rest on us;
establish the work of our hands for us –
yes, establish the work of our hands.
This is a Psalm of Moses. Moses was God's friend, the one person who could see Him without dying. Moses has told us how powerful God is. Now he asks for God's blessings on our work.
Yes, I could use some blessings. My work, both paid and for my family and friends, needs blessing. I feel good about what I am doing, and then the props get knocked out from under me. Am I so bad? Do I deserve the condemnation I receive? I'm just not sure.
Prayer: Lord, bless my works. Guide me to do those things that serve You and Your people. Give me the assurance that I am heading down the right path. Your mighty power is all I need.
Amen
