But I pray to you, LORD,
in the time of your favor (an acceptable time, your will, good pleasure, delight);
in your great (abundant, excellent, multitudinous, greatly huge)
love (goodness, mercy, pity, kindness, lovingkindness, merciful kindness),
O God, answer me (respond, sing, shout, testify, announce)
with your sure (firm, faithful, true, assured, right, certain, trustworthy)
salvation (deliverance, rescue, safety, saving). Psalm 69:13
****
Lord at the time acceptable to You,
Your will be done
your delight, your good pleasure,
(for you love mercy)
In your uncontainable love
your abundant, excellent, multitudinous, greatly huge love
(language cannot contain it)
sing, you who are my Song!
Shout, testify, announce to me
your salvation that is sure,
forever unchanging,
trustworthy,
certain,
Faithful and True
****
This is what the Lord says:
"In the time of my favor I will answer you,
and in the day of salvation I will help you;
I will keep you and will make you
to be a covenant for the people,
to restore the land
and to reassign its desolate inheritances,
to say to the captives, 'Come out,'
and to those in darkness, 'Be free!'
"They will feed beside the roads
and find pasture on every barren hill.
They will neither hunger nor thirst,
nor will the desert heat or the sun beat down on them.
He who has compassion on them will guide them
and lead them beside springs of water. Isaiah 49:8-10
Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; for the LORD GOD is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation. Isaiah 12:2 (ESV)
I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. Revelation 19:11
Lord, thank you for your greatly huge love!
