Worship and Psalms Before the Heavenly Courts

---

Lord, we come before you right now in the name of Yeshua — Avinu Malkeinu, Our Father, Our King. We come before you in praise and worship and thanksgiving. Lord, we thank you for the Feast of Trumpets — the second day of the Feast of Trumpets — as we continue our journey through the ten days of awe toward Yom Kippur. We know this is such an important time on your calendar, and we thank you for the revelation, for the anointing, for the understanding of it.

Lord, as we come before you in an intimate way, to communicate with you and for you to communicate with us — Holy Spirit, we ask you to invade this prayer, invade every life on this call right now with quietness and peace and Shalom. Bring us into that special place that only you can bring us.

We ask, Yeshua, we ask the Holy Spirit, to bring us before the courts. Every one of us standing before you, just as Daniel 7 says — thousands upon thousands, ten thousand times ten thousand, standing before him, and the books were opened. We know these events are ultimately tied to the Feast of Trumpets. Lord, this is where we are right now, and we ask that you have your way with us. Lead us, guide us, everyone on this call. We come before you without our fig leaves — naked, wanting to be clothed in your white robe — as we do our part in your kingdom, going from the cross to the crown on this spiritual purification journey, in the hope that we receive your righteous rendered verdicts. Holy Spirit, have your way. Anoint your people with spiritual gifts, with all of their gifts, to do their part in God's kingdom. Lead us, guide us, direct us as we enter into your court session tonight.

*Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come. You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they exist and were created. Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive riches and power and strength and honor and glory and blessing. Blessing and honor and glory and power be to him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb, forever and ever.*

Father, we come to you now to sing to you, to praise your holy name, to give you all reverence and all the power and all the glory. You alone are worthy of the credit. As two or more gathered in your name, we know you are here among us. We ask you to invade our lives right now with the word of God as we come before you to petition and celebrate and praise your name with your holy word.

It is written in Psalm 100: *Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth. Serve the Lord with gladness. Come before his presence with singing. Know that the Lord, he is God. It is he who has made us, and not we ourselves. We are his people and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving and into his courts with praise. Be thankful to him and bless his holy name. For the Lord is good; his lovingkindness is everlasting, and his faithfulness is to all generations.*

It is written in Psalm 103: *Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits — who pardons all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, who satisfies your years with good things…*

*"...your youth is renewed like the eagles."*

It is written in Psalms 113: Lord, we just praise Your name. Praise the Lord. Praise all you servants of the Lord; praise the name of the Lord. Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth and forevermore. From the rising of the sun to its going down, the Lord's name is to be praised. The Lord is high above all nations; His glory is above the heavens. Who is like the Lord our God, who is enthroned on high, who humbles Himself to behold the things that are in the heavens and in the earth? He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy out of the ash heap, to make them sit with princes — with the princes of His people. He makes the barren woman abide in the house as a joyful mother of children. Praise the Lord.

It is written in Psalms 116: I love the Lord, because He hears my voice and my supplications. Because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore I shall call upon Him as long as I live. The cords of death encompassed me, and the terrors of Sheol came upon me; I found distress and sorrow. Then I called upon the name of the Lord: "O Lord, I beseech You, save my life." Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; yes, our God is compassionate. The Lord preserves the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me. Return to your rest, O my soul, for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you. For You have rescued my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from stumbling. I shall walk before the Lord in the land of the living.

I believed when I said, "I am greatly afflicted." I said in my alarm, "All men are liars." What shall I render to the Lord for all of His benefits toward me? I shall lift up the cup of salvation and call upon the name of the Lord. I shall pay my vows to the Lord — O may it be in the presence of all the people. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His godly ones. O Lord, surely I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant. You have loosed my bonds. To You I shall offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call upon the name of the Lord. I shall pay my vows to the Lord — O may it be in the presence of all His people, in the courts of the Lord's house, in the midst of you, O Jerusalem. Praise the Lord.

It is written in Psalms 117: Praise the Lord, all you nations; laud Him, all you peoples. For His lovingkindness is great toward us, and the truth of the Lord is everlasting. Praise the Lord.

It is written in Psalms 118. Lord, we just want to lift You on high. This is the Psalm that King David wrote for Messiah's crucifixion. Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His lovingkindness is everlasting. O let Israel say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting." Let the house of Aaron say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting." Let those who fear the Lord say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting."

From my distress I called upon the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me in a large place. The Lord is for me; I will not fear. What can man do to me? The Lord is for me among those who help me — think about Yeshua, think about Messiah. Therefore I will look with satisfaction on those who hate me. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man; it is better to take refuge than to trust in princes. All nations surrounded me; in the name of the Lord I will surely cut them off. They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me, but in the name of the Lord I will surely cut them off. They surrounded me like bees, and they were extinguished like a fire of thorns; in the name of the Lord I will surely cut them off. You pushed me violently so that I was falling, but the Lord helped me. The Lord is my strength and my song, and He has become my salvation.

The sound of joyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous. The right hand of the Lord does valiantly; the right hand of the Lord is exalted — Yeshua. The right hand of the Lord does valiantly. I will not die, but live, and I will declare the works of the Lord. The Lord has disciplined me severely, but He has not given me over to death. Open to me the gates of righteousness, and I will enter through them; I shall give thanks to the Lord. This is the gate of the Lord through which the righteous shall enter. I shall give thanks to You, for You have answered me and have become my salvation.

The stone which the builders rejected — Yeshua — has become the chief cornerstone. This is the Lord's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. This is the day the Lord has made — Passover — let us rejoice and be glad in it. O Lord, do save, we beseech You; O Lord, we beseech You, do send prosperity. Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord — Yeshua. We have blessed you from the house of the Lord. The Lord is God, and He has given us light. Bind the festival sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar — Yeshua, Passover. You are my God and I will give thanks to You; You are my God, I will exalt You. Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, and His lovingkindness is everlasting.

Father, we just come to You right now to offer You these Psalms that King David and so many others have written. We give them to You; we send them up as sweet incense to You, Lord — as our prayers, as we quote Your word back to You, and give You homage, honor, and glory; to bless You with our soul as Psalms 103 says. We offer these to You, Lord. As we come before You in the courts, we come to pray, to praise, to worship, to cleanse, and to ask for righteous rendered verdicts — as only You can give them. Lead us and guide us in Your direction as we come before You and say the Lord's Prayer.
