Psalm 26 (NLT)
Declare me innocent, O Lord,
for I have acted with integrity;
I have trusted in the Lord without wavering.
Put me on trial, Lord, and cross-examine me.
Test my motives and my heart.
For I am always aware of your unfailing love,
and I have lived according to your truth.
I do not spend time with liars
or go along with hypocrites.
I hate the gatherings of those who do evil,
and I refuse to join in with the wicked.
I wash my hands to declare my innocence.
I come to your altar, O Lord,
singing a song of thanksgiving
and telling of all your wonders.
I love your sanctuary, Lord,
the place where your glorious presence dwells.
Don’t let me suffer the fate of sinners.
Don’t condemn me along with murderers.
Their hands are dirty with evil schemes,
and they constantly take bribes.
But I am not like that; I live with integrity.
So redeem me and show me mercy.
Now I stand on solid ground,
and I will publicly praise the Lord.

Holy Trinity, You are our Creator and our Redeemer. Heavenly Father, thank You for giving Your Son for our salvation. Lord Jesus, thank you for bearing the weight of our sin. Holy Spirit, thank you for applying the work of Christ to our lives. You have made us alive in Christ and sealed to us our salvation. Comfort us by Your presence and help us to bear witness to Christ, even when we suffer. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
