PSALM 6 PRAYER – WHEN YOU ARE HURT, DO NOT RETALIATE – PRAY

PSALM 6 PRAYER – WHEN YOU ARE HURT, DO NOT RETALIATE – PRAY

In life, we often get hurt by others’ actions. As believers, we are called not to retaliate with anger, but to respond with love — through prayer.

This prayer uses Psalm 6 as a way to release pain and entrust justice to God. Say it sincerely, and mention the name of the person who has hurt you.

---

1. Opening Prayer:

Lord Jesus,
I have had a relationship with (insert the name of the person you are praying for),
but he/she has hurt me and done things
that caused me pain, wounded my heart, and disturbed my peace...

---

2. Read Psalm 6:2–6
In verses 2, 3, and 5, replace the words “I” or “me” with the name of the person you are praying for.
Example:

• “Have mercy on (name), O Lord, for (name) is weak.”
• “(Name)’s bones are in agony.”
• “(Name)’s soul is in deep anguish.”

Continue reading through verse 6.

---

3. Then read Psalm 6:7–10
(These verses should be read without modification, just as they appear in the Bible.)

---

4. Closing Prayer:

Lord Jesus,
If (insert name) did all that by Your command,
then bless him/her.
But if it was not from You,
I surrender the right to revenge entirely to You.
Amen.

---

5. Concluding Prayers:

Our Father – 1x
Hail Mary – 1x
Glory Be – 1x

---

This prayer is an act of love, not weakness — it brings peace, healing, and strength.
May God bless and comfort your heart.

Prayer: “Holy Spirit, Stay and Linger in My Heart”

Prayer: “Holy Spirit, Stay and Linger in My Heart”

Holy Spirit, gentle breath of God,

I open the door of my heart wide for You.

Come—stay with me,

dwell not just for a moment, but forevermore.

Let my heart be Your resting place,

a sanctuary for Your holy presence.

When You are near, my soul is calm.

When You remain, I am alive.

Let Your peace flow through every beat of my heart,

and Your love echo in every corner of my soul.

Stay, O Spirit—don’t rush away.

Linger in the silence between my thoughts.

Let the whisper of Your presence

linger like fragrance long after the breeze is gone.

Mark me with Your light.

Leave traces of heaven in all I do.

I long for You…

More than morning longs for light,

more than silence longs for song.

Stay and linger, Holy Spirit,

forever in the depths of me.

Amen.

I come before You this morning with a heart full of gratitude. Thank You, Lord, for Your protection and blessings throughout my life. You have been my refuge and my strength in every season, and I am deeply grateful for Your unfailing love and care.

Thank You for the gift of a new day, a fresh start filled with new opportunities and blessings. I acknowledge that every moment is a gift from You, and I want to use this day to glorify You in all I do.

Lord, I humbly ask for the guidance of Your Holy Spirit today. Lead my thoughts, words, and actions so that they align with Your will. Fill me with Your wisdom, peace, and strength, and help me to be a blessing to others.

As I walk through this day, may I be mindful of Your presence and trust in Your divine plan. Let Your love shine through me so that others may see Your light.

I surrender this day to You, Father, and I place my trust in Your hands. Thank You for walking with me always.

Through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.

Amen.

A PRAYER TO THE SACRED SHOULDER WOUND OF CHRIST

O Loving Jesus, meek Lamb of God, I a miserable sinner, salute and worship the most Sacred Wound of Your Shoulder on which You bore Your heavy Cross, which so tore Your flesh and laid bare Your Bones as to inflict on You an anguish greater than any other wound of Your Most Blessed Body. I adore You, O Jesus most sorrowful; I praise and glorify You, and give You thanks for this most sacred and painful Wound, beseeching You by that exceeding pain, and by the crushing burden of Your heavy Cross to be merciful to me, a sinner, to forgive me all my mortal and venial sins, and to lead me on towards Heaven along the Way of the Cross. Amen.
