What a special time of prayer with a purpose---following a time of purposeful meditation. That's the purpose of our meditation on scripture---to lead us into rich times of prayer.
Psalm 30, shares praise as David declares what God had done on his behalf. David cried out. God heard him. God drew him out. Such declaration leads to much praise. Much praise leads to a grateful heart.
Hear, O Lord, and be gracious to me;
O Lord, be my helper.” You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
You have loosed my sackcloth and girded me with gladness,
That my soul may sing praise to You and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever. (Psalm 30:10-12)
These final verses reflect that praise but the entire psalm is worthy of meditation, purposeful meditation, that is.
