Psalm 70: Hurry up!
(suitable for children.
Could work as an introduction to Intercession prayers.)
Hurry up, God, I need your help!
NOW would be good!
Come on, God, get a move on!
I’m in trouble, I’m under attack,
people are out to get me!
I want everything that’s been thrown at me
to bounce back in their faces,
see how they like that!
Hurry up, God! Save me! Protect me!
I feel small, poor and needy,
but you are my help and my saving power.
I trust you no matter what.
With all your people I will say “God is great!”
Everyone who loves you will find joy in you.
But right now …
I wish you would hurry up and do something!
