Thematic Bible: Lifted up


Thematic Bible



Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger and disputing or quarreling or doubt [in their mind].


“Arise, cry aloud in the night,
At the beginning of the night watches;
Pour out your heart like water
Before the presence of the Lord;
Lift up your hands to Him
For the life of your little ones
Who are faint from hunger
At the head of every street.”


Let my prayer be counted as incense before You;
The lifting up of my hands as the evening offering.


I reach out my hands to You;
My throat thirsts for You, as a parched land [thirsts for water]. Selah.


Hear the voice of my supplication (specific requests, humble entreaties) as I cry to You for help,
As I lift up my hands and heart toward Your innermost sanctuary (Holy of Holies).
