Slide8: Psalm 51 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Your loving kindness; according to the multitude of Your tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sins; For I acknowledge my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me. I have sinned against You, against You truly. I have done what is evil In Your sight. Your judgments are right. Your sentence is just. For behold, I was formed in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. But You take delight in the truth. You have made known to me the secrets of your wisdom. Sprinkle me with Your hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me and I shall be whiter than snow. MGSOSA Leadership Conference 2006


Slide9: Satisfy me with Your joy and gladness, that my bones which are crushed shall rejoice. Turn Your face away from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from Your presence; and take not Your holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation; and uphold me with Your glorious Spirit; then I will teach the wicked Your way, and sinners shall turn to You. Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation, and my tongue shall praise Your righteousness. O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth shall sing Your praises. MGSOSA Leadership Conference 2006


Slide10: For You desire not sacrifices, You are not appeased by burnt offerings. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, which You will not despise. By Your loving-kindness do good to Zion; build the walls of Jerusalem. Then You shall be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offerings and whole burnt offerings; then they shall offer bullocks upon Your altar. To you belongs praise, O God. Barekhmor. MGSOSA Leadership Conference 2006


Slide11: Psalms 63 O God, You are my God and I will wait for You. Like a dry and thirsty land longing for water, my spirit thirsts for You and my body longs for You. I truly looked up to You, to behold Your power and glory. Because Your loving-kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise You. Thus I will praise You while I am alive and I will raise my Hands in Your name. My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fat and my Mouth shall sing Your glory with joyful lips. MGSOSA Leadership Conference 2006


Slide12: I remember You as I lie on my bed. All night long, I think of You and meditate. Because You have been my help, I will be protected under The shadow of Your wings. My soul follows You and Your right hand keeps me safe. Those that seek to destroy my soul shall go into the depths of the earth. They shall fall by the sword and their bodies eaten by wolves. But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone that swears by him shall be glorified. But the Mouth of the liars shall be shut. To you belongs praise, O God. Barekhmor.

Slide17: From Psalms 148, 149, 150 Praise Him all His angels. Praise Him all His heavenly armies. By His word everything was made, for He commanded and they were created. He set them in their places for ever and gave them a law which shall not pass away. Praise the Lord, all mountains and hills, all fruit trees and cedars, all bees and cattle, all creeping things and birds that fly. MGSOSA Leadership Conference 2006


Slide18: For His name alone is exalted, His glory is on earth and in heaven. He also exalts the horn of His people, all His saints; even of the children of Israel, a people of His own. Let them praise His name with tambourines and drums, and sing to Him with their harps. The Lord is delighted in His people. He gives salvation to the poor. His saints have the honor, with a two-edged sword in their hands, to execute vengeance upon the heathen and bring punishments upon the people, to bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron and to execute upon them the written judgment. MGSOSA Leadership Conference 2006


Slide19: Praise Him for His powerful deeds. Praise Him for His infinite greatness. Praise Him with the sound of horn. Praise Him with the sound of the flute and harp. Praise the Lord, all you nations. Praise Him all you peoples. For great is His goodness toward us. Truly, He is the Lord for ever. To you belongs praise, O God. Barekhmor.
