John 4:23 ²³But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him.

Psalms 51:10–12 ¹⁰Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. ¹¹Cast me not away from Your presence; take not Your Holy Spirit from me. ¹²Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and sustain me with a willing spirit.

Psalms 55:6–9 ⁶I said, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and find rest. ⁷How far away I would flee! In the wilderness I would remain. ⁸I would hurry to my shelter, far from this raging tempest.” ⁹O Lord, confuse and confound their speech, for I see violence and strife in the city.

Take a moment of personal prayer.

Psalms 4:1–8 ¹Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved my distress; show me grace and hear my prayer. ²How long, O men, will my honor be maligned? How long will you love vanity and seek after lies? ³Know that the LORD has set apart the godly for Himself; the LORD hears when I call to Him. ⁴Be angry, yet do not sin; on your bed, search your heart and be still. ⁵Offer the sacrifices of the righteous and trust in the LORD. ⁶Many ask, “Who can show us the good?” Shine the light of Your face upon us, O LORD. ⁷You have filled my heart with more joy than when grain and new wine abound. ⁸I will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.

Psalms 11:7 ⁷For the LORD is righteous; He loves justice. The upright will see His face.
