PRAYER FOR DELIVERANCE.

(Sabbath, October 15.)
1. How does David address the Lord in Psalms 143:6?
"I stretch forth my hands unto thee; my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land."
2. How urgently does he press his petition?
"Hear me speedily, O Lord; my spirit faileth; hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit." Verse 7.
3. As in faith he contemplates deliverance from trouble, what comfort does he implore?
"Cause me to hear thy loving-kindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust; cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee." Verse 8.
4. In what words does he seek the guidance of the Lord? Same verse.
5. How does he pray for instruction in righteousness?
"Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God; thy Spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness." Verse 10.
