PRAYING SCRIPTURE
Psalm 130:1–8
Psalm 130 is for people struggling in their souls, perhaps with sin (vv. 1–2). It is a confession song similar to Psalm 51. Like David, who prayed Psalm 40, this psalmist had wandered from God and fallen into the depths (v. 1). From where will help come? The psalmist called out to God, trusting in His forgiveness (v. 4). We have a High Priest who forgives our sins and has made a way for us to relate with the Father. As you pray through this psalm, place your hope in Jesus and wait for Him (vv. 5−8).

About this Plan
Pray through the fifteen Psalms of Ascent (Psalm 120-134) in this 15-day reading plan and experience a deeper connection to God through His Word. Historically, the Psalms of Ascent were songs worshipers sang as they traveled to the temple or national festivals. Excerpts are from The Abide Bible, which provides various Scripture engagement tools--including praying, journaling, contemplating, and more--to help you meet God in God's Word so He can transform your life.
