Important - Read This First

I would like to point our something Important before I start this page.

I see many sites online (and videos) that give Psalm chapter and verse and ignore the entire chapter as a whole.

This is deceitful and dishonest and shows a great lack of respect for "God" if you think that asking for money (or other) by saying what looks like 1 or 2 lines in "a" chapter will get you what you want, borders on delusional.

The original writer of Psalms was not King David (et al), it was The Creator and FYI, The Creator is not a fool so asking for help involves a commitment and IF you cannot even commit to saying a complete chapter of Psalms, how seriously do you think your request will be taken?

For those of you who are wise, "Do not ask for money or gold".

Having said that, you can ask to be successful at something - some examples may be - writing a book, your business (whatever that is), any kind of journey you wish to undertake etc

Certain Psalms are frequently read as prayers to seek wisdom, guidance, and success for your life goals - so anything pertaining to these 3 subjects are usually more successfully manifested.

Reciting Psalms for any purpose is just like saying "Positive Affirmations", it takes the following ingredients.

Repetition - they must be repeated 2 or more times daily - and the more repeats, the sooner they may activate.
Time - If you are very sincere, genuine and committed and pray your "Psalms" multiple times a day, they will usually take weeks and even months to eventuate (if at all **). ** I put "is at all" because too many people think of God as a waiter.
Focus And Intent - These must be true in your heart.
Belief in God - If you do not believe "IN" God, then you are praying to empty air and you are creating a self-fulfilling prophecy of failure before you even start.

You should focus on aligning these passages in your heart with integrity and belief God to achieve your goals.

I was taught that "Door A" is my focus but I should always also be looking for "Door B" which is often something which leads to "Door A".

Consider reading this "PreCog Thoughts" page before you start. It explains how to pre-set (pre-program) your mind towards your goal before you engage in prayer or meditation.

The most popular Psalms for success, prosperity, and direction include the following:

Finally - in the words of a great Vulcan, "Live Long and Prosper".

Psalm 1 ↟↟

raised is a man that he did not follow the counsel of the wicked, neither did he stand by the way of sinners nor sit in the company of scorners.
But his desire is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night.
He shall be as a tree planted beside Springs of water, which brings forth its fruit in its season, and its leaves do not wilt, and whatever he does prospers.
Not so the wicked, but [they are] like chaff that the wind drives away.
Therefore, the wicked shall not stand up in judgment, nor shall the sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked shall perish.

Psalm 6 ↟↟

o the conductor with melodies on the sheminith, a song of David.
O Lord, do not rebuke me in Your anger, and do not chastise me in Your wrath.
Be gracious to me, O Lord, because I languish, heal me, O Lord, because my bones are frightened.
And my soul is very frightened, and You, O Lord, how long?
Return, O Lord, rescue my soul, save me for the sake of Your loving-kindness.
For there is no memory of You in death, in the grave, who will thank You?
I am weary from my sighing, every night I sully my bed, I wet my couch with my tears.
My eye is dimmed from anger, it has aged because of all my adversaries.
Turn away from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the Lord has hearkened to the voice of my weeping.
The Lord has hearkened to my supplication, the Lord has accepted my prayer.
All my enemies shall be ashamed and very frightened, they shall return and be ashamed in a moment.

Psalm 9 ↟↟

o the conductor, to brighten the youth, a song of David.
I will thank the Lord with all my heart, I will tell all Your wonders.
I will rejoice and exult with You, I will sing praises to Your most high name.
When my enemies draw backward, they stumble and are destroyed from before You.
For You have performed my judgment and my cause, You sat on the throne, O Judge of righteousness.
You rebuked nations, You destroyed a wicked man, You erased their name forever and ever.
The enemy has been destroyed, swords exist forever, and You have uprooted the cities-their remembrance is lost.
But the Lord shall sit forever, He has established His throne for judgment.
But He judges the world with righteousness, kingdoms with equity.
And the Lord shall be a fortress for the crushed, a fortress for times of distress.
And those who know Your name shall trust in You, for You have not forsaken those who seek You, O Lord.
Sing praises to the Lord, Who dwells in Zion, relate His deeds among the peoples.
For He Who avenges blood remembers them, He has not forgotten the cry of the humble.
Be gracious to me, O Lord, see my affliction from my enemies, You Who raise me up from the gates of death,
in order that I tell all Your praises, in the gates of the daughter of Zion I will rejoice in Your salvation.
Nations have sunk in the pit they have made, in this net that they have concealed, their foot has become trapped.
The Lord is known for the judgment that He performed, with the act of His hand, the wicked man stumbles. Let us meditate over this forever.
May the wicked return to the grave, all nations who forget God.
For the needy shall not be forgotten forever, neither shall the hope of the poor be lost to eternity.
Arise, O Lord, let man have no power. May the nations be judged for Your anger.
O Lord, place mastery over them, let the nations know that they forever are mortal man.

Psalm 20 ↟↟

or the conductor, a song of David.
May the Lord answer you on a day of distress, may the name of the God of Jacob fortify you.
May He send your aid from His sanctuary, and may He support you from Zion.
May He remember all your meal offerings and may He accept your fat burnt offerings forever.
May He give you as your heart [desires], and may He fulfill all your counsel.
Let us sing praises for your salvation, and let us assemble in the name of our God, may the Lord fulfill all your requests.
Now I know that the Lord saved His anointed, He answered him from His holy heavens, with the mighty acts of salvation from His right hand.
These trust in chariots and these in horses, but we-we mention the name of the Lord our God.
They kneel and fall, but we rise and gain strength.
O Lord, save [us], may the King answer us on the day we call.

Psalm 27 ↟↟

f David. The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life, from whom shall I be frightened?
When evildoers draw near to me to devour my flesh, my adversaries and my enemies against me-they stumbled and fell.
If a camp encamps against me, my heart shall not fear, if a war should rise up against me, in this I trust.
One [thing] I ask of the Lord, that I seek-that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to see the pleasantness of the Lord and to visit His Temple every morning.
That He will hide me in His tabernacle on the day of calamity, He will conceal me in the secrecy of His tent, He will lift me up on a rock.
And now, my head will be raised over my enemies around me, and I will sacrifice in His tent sacrifices with joyous song, I will sing and chant praise to the Lord.
Hearken, O Lord, to my voice [which] I call out, and be gracious to me and answer me.
On Your behalf, my heart says, "Seek My presence." Your presence, O Lord, I will seek.
Do not hide Your presence from me, do not turn Your servant away with anger. You were my help, do not forsake me and do not abandon me, O God of my salvation.
For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord gathers me in.
Instruct me, O Lord, in Your way, and lead me in the straight path because of those who lie in wait for me.
Do not deliver me to the desires of my adversaries, for false witnesses and speakers of evil have risen against me.
Had I not believed in seeing the good of the Lord in the land of the living.
Hope for the Lord, be strong and He will give your heart courage, and hope for the Lord.

Psalm 34 ↟↟

f David, when he disguised his sanity before Abimelech, whereupon he drove him out and he departed.
I will bless the Lord at all times, His praise is always in my mouth.
My soul boasts of the Lord, may the humble hear and rejoice.
Declare the greatness of the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.
I sought the Lord and He answered me, and He delivered me from all my terrors.
They looked to Him and they became radiant, and their faces will not be ashamed.
This poor man called and the Lord heard, and He saved him from all his troubles.
An angel of the Lord is stationed around those who fear Him, and He saved them.
Comprehend and see that the Lord is good, praiseworthy is the man who takes shelter in Him.
Fear the Lord, His holy ones, for there is no want to those who fear Him.
Young lions suffer want and are hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good.
Come, children, hearken to me, I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
Who is the man who desires life, who loves days to see goodness?
Guard your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceitfully.
Shun evil and do good, seek peace and pursue it.
The eyes of the Lord are to the righteous, and His ears are to their cry.
The face of the Lord is against evildoers, to cut off their remembrance from the earth.
They cry out and the Lord hearkens, and He saves them from all their troubles.
The Lord is near to the broken-hearted, and He saves those of crushed spirit.
Many evils befall the righteous, but the Lord saves him from them all.
He guards all his bones, not one of them was broken.
Evil will kill the wicked, and those who hate the righteous shall be accounted guilty.
The Lord redeems the soul of His servants, and all who take refuge in Him shall not be accounted guilty.

Psalm 35 ↟↟

f David. O Lord, strive with those who strive against me, battle my foes.
Grasp a shield and encircling armor, and rise to my assistance.
And arm Yourself with a spear and bar the way before my pursuers, say to my soul, "I am your salvation."
May those who seek my life be shamed and embarrassed, may those who plan my harm draw backward and be abashed.
Let them be as chaff before the wind, with an angel of the Lord thrusting them.
May their way be dark and slippery, with an angel of the Lord pursuing them.
For without cause they have hidden for me a pit, yea a net, without cause they have dug it for my soul.
May darkness that he does not know come upon him, and his net that he hid shall ensnare him, in the darkness may he fall into it.
And my soul shall exult in the Lord, it shall rejoice in His salvation.
All my bones shall say, O Lord, who is like You, Who saves a poor man from one stronger than he and a poor man and a needy one from one who robs him.
False witnesses rise up, they ask me of things that I know not.
They recompense me with evil instead of good, death to my soul.
But, as for me, when they were ill, my attire was sackcloth, I afflicted myself with fasting, and may my prayer return upon my bosom.
I walked about as though it were a friend or as though it were my own brother, I was bowed with gloom as the mourning of a mother.
And, when I limped, they rejoiced and gathered, lame people gathered about me, [why,] I do not know. Were they to tear, they would not draw blood.
Because of the flattery of scorn for food, they gnash their teeth at me.
O Lord, how long will You look on? Return my soul from their darkness, my only one from young lions.
I will thank You in a large assembly, in a mighty people I will praise You.
Let them not rejoice over me, those who are my enemies for an unjust cause, neither shall those who hate me for nought wink their eyes.
For they do not speak peace, and against the crushed people of the earth they think words of deceit.
And they opened their mouth wide against me and they said, "Aha. Aha. Our eyes have seen [what we desired]."
You saw, O Lord, do not be silent, O Lord, do not distance Yourself from me.
Arouse Yourself and awaken to my judgment, my God and my Lord, to my cause.
Judge me according to Your righteousness, O Lord, my God, and let them not rejoice over me.
Let them not say in their hearts, "Our soul rejoices." Let them not say, "We have swallowed him up."
Let them be ashamed and abashed together, those who rejoice at my misfortune, let them be clothed in shame and disgrace, those who raise themselves haughtily over me.
Let those who desire my vindication sing praises and rejoice, and let them constantly say, "May the Lord, Who desires the peace of His servant, be magnified."
And my tongue shall utter Your righteousness, Your praise all day long.

Psalm 37 ↟↟

f David. Do not compete with the evildoers, do not envy those who commit injustice.
For they will be speedily cut off like grass and wither like green vegetation.
Trust in the Lord and do good, dwell in the land and be nourished by faith.
So shall you delight in the Lord, and He will give you what your heart desires.
Commit your way to the Lord, and trust in Him and He will act.
And He will reveal your righteousness like the light, and your judgments like noon.
Wait for the Lord and hope for Him, do not compete with one whose way prospers, with a man who executes malicious plans.
Desist from anger and forsake wrath, do not compete only to do evil.
For evildoers shall be cut off, and those who hope for the Lord - they will inherit the land.
A short while longer and the wicked man is not here, and you shall look at his place and he is not there.
But the humble shall inherit the land, and they shall delight in much peace.
The wicked man plots against the righteous and gnashes his teeth at him.
The Lord will scoff at him because He saw that his day will come.
The wicked initiated war and bent their bow to cast down the poor and the needy, to slay those who walk on a straight path.
Their sword shall enter their heart, and their bows shall be broken.
The few of the righteous are better than the multitude of many wicked men.
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the Lord supports the righteous.
The Lord knows the days of the innocent, and their inheritance will be forever.
They will not be ashamed in time of calamity, and in days of famine they shall still be satisfied.
For the wicked will perish, and the enemies of the Lord are like disappearing light on the plains, they are consumed in smoke, yea they are consumed.
A wicked man borrows and does not pay, but the Righteous one is gracious and gives.
For those blessed by Him will inherit the land, and those cursed by Him will be cut off.
From the Lord a mighty man's steps are established, for He delights in his way.
If he falls, he will not be cast down, for the Lord supports his hand.
I was young, I also aged, and I have not seen a righteous man forsaken and his seed seeking bread.
All day long he is gracious and lends, and his seed is due for a blessing.
Shun evil and do good, and dwell forever.
For the Lord loves justice, and He shall not forsake His pious ones, they will be guarded forever, but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
The righteous shall inherit the land and dwell forever in it.
The righteous man's mouth utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks judgment.
The law of his God is in his heart, his feet do not falter.
The wicked man watches for the righteous man and seeks to put him to death.
The Lord shall not leave him in his hands, and He shall not condemn him [the righteous] when he [the wicked] is judged.
Hope to the Lord and keep His way, He will exalt you to inherit the land, and you will witness the destruction of the wicked.
I saw a wicked man, powerful, well-rooted as a native who is fresh.
And he passed away and behold. he is not here, and I sought him and he was not found.
Observe the innocent and see the upright, for there is a future for the man of peace.
But transgressors were destroyed together, the future of the wicked was cut off.
But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord, their stronghold in time of distress.
The Lord helped them and rescued them, He rescued them from the wicked and saved them because they took refuge in Him.

Psalm 40 ↟↟

or the conductor, of David a song.
I have greatly hoped for the Lord, and He extended [His ear] to me and heard my cry.
And He drew me up out of the roaring pit, from the thick mire, and He set my feet upon a rock, He established my steps.
He put a new song into my mouth, a praise to our God, so that many may see and fear, and trust in the Lord.
Praiseworthy is the man who made the Lord his trust, and did not turn to the haughty and those who turn to falsehood.
You have done great things, You, O Lord my God. Your wonders and Your thoughts are for us. There is none to equal You, were I to tell and speak, they would be too many to tell.
You desired neither sacrifice nor meal offering, You dug ears for me, a burnt offering or a sin offering You did not request.
Then I said, "Behold I have come," with a scroll of a book written for me.
O God, I desired to do Your will and [to have] Your law within my innards.
I brought tidings of righteousness in a great assembly. Behold, I will not withhold my lips, O Lord, You know.
I did not conceal Your charity within my heart, I stated Your faith and Your salvation-I did not withhold Your kindness and truth-to a great assembly.
You, O Lord, do not withhold Your mercies from me, may Your kindness and Your truth always watch me.
For countless evils have encompassed me, my iniquities have overtaken me and I could not see [them because] they are more numerous than the hairs of my head, and my heart has forsaken me.
O Lord, be willing to save me, O Lord, hasten to my help.
May those who seek my soul to destroy it be shamed and embarrassed together, may those who seek to harm me retreat and be humiliated.
May they be bewildered afterwards because of their shame, those who say about me, "Aha. Aha."
All who seek You shall exult and rejoice, those who love Your salvation shall constantly say, "May the Lord be magnified."
But I am poor and needy, may the Lord think of me. You are my help and my rescuer, my God, do not delay.

Psalm 90 ↟↟

prayer of Moses, the man of God. O Lord, You have been our dwelling place throughout all generations.
Before the mountains were born, and You brought forth the earth and the inhabited world, and from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.
You bring man to the crushing point, and You say, "Return, O sons of men."
For a thousand years are in Your eyes like yesterday, which passed, and a watch in the night.
You carry them away as a flood, they are like a sleep, in the morning, like grass it passes away.
In the morning, it blossoms and passes away, in the evening, it is cut off and withers.
For we perish from Your wrath, and from Your anger we are dismayed.
You have placed our iniquities before You, [the sins of] our youth before the light of Your countenance.
For all our days have passed away in Your anger, we have consumed our years as a murmur.
The days of our years because of them are seventy years, and if with increase, eighty years, but their pride is toil and pain, for it passes quickly and we fly away.
Who knows the might of Your wrath, and according to Your fear is Your anger.
So teach the number of our days, so that we shall acquire a heart of wisdom.
Return, O Lord, how long? And repent about Your servants.
Satiate us in the morning with Your loving-kindness, and let us sing praises and rejoice with all our days.
Cause us to rejoice according to the days that You afflicted us, the years that we saw evil.
May Your works appear to Your servants, and Your beauty to their sons.
And may the pleasantness of the Lord our God be upon us, and the work of our hands establish for us, and the work of our hands establish it.

Psalm 112 ↟↟

allelujah. Praiseworthy is the man who fears the Lord, who greatly desires His commandments.
His seed will be mighty in the land, a generation of upright ones, which shall be blessed.
Wealth and riches will be in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.
He shone a light in the darkness for the upright, [for He is] gracious and merciful and righteous.
Good is the man who is gracious and lends, who conducts his affairs with moderation.
For he will never falter, for an everlasting memorial will the righteous man be.
He will not fear bad news, his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.
His heart is steadfast, he will not fear until he sees in his adversaries.
He distributed, he gave to the needy, his charity endures forever, his horn will be raised with glory.
A wicked man will see and become angry, he will gnash his teeth and melt, the desire of the wicked will be lost.

Psalm 118 ↟↟

ive thanks to the Lord because He is good, for His kindness is eternal.
Israel shall now say, "For His kindness is eternal."
The house of Aaron shall now say, "For His kindness is eternal."
Those who fear the Lord shall now say, "For His kindness is eternal."
From the straits I called God, God answered me with a vast expanse.
The Lord is for me, I shall not fear. What can man do to me?
The Lord is for me with my helpers, and I shall see [revenge] in my enemies.
It is better to take shelter in the Lord than to trust in man.
It is better to take shelter in the Lord than to trust in princes.
All nations surrounded me, in the name of the Lord that I shall cut them off.
They encircled me, yea they surrounded me, in the name of the Lord that I shall cut them off.
They encircled me like bees, they were extinguished like a thorn fire, in the name of the Lord that I shall cut them off.
You pushed me to fall, but the Lord helped me.
The might and the cutting power of God was my salvation.
A voice of singing praises and salvation is in the tents of the righteous, the right hand of the Lord deals valiantly.
The right hand of the Lord is exalted, the right hand of the Lord deals valiantly.
I shall not die but I shall live and tell the deeds of God.
God has chastised me, but He has not delivered me to death.
Open for me the gates of righteousness, I shall enter them and thank God.
This is the Lord's gate, the righteous will enter therein.
I shall thank You because You answered me, and You were my salvation.
The stone that the builders rejected became a cornerstone.
This was from the Lord, it is wondrous in our eyes.
This is the day that the Lord made, we shall exult and rejoice thereon.
Please, O Lord, save now. Please, O Lord, make prosperous now.
Blessed be he who has come in the name of the Lord, we have blessed you from the house of the Lord.
The Lord is God, and He gave us light. Bind the sacrifice with ropes until [it is brought to] the corners of the altar.
You are my God and I shall thank You, my God, I shall exalt You.
Give thanks to the Lord because He is good, for His kindness is eternal.

Psalm 145 ↟↟

praise of David. I shall exalt You, my God the King, and I shall bless Your name forever and ever.
Every day I shall bless You, and I shall praise Your name forever and ever.
The Lord is great and very much praised, and His greatness cannot be searched.
Generation to generation will praise Your works, and they will recite Your mighty deeds.
Of the majesty of the glory of Your splendor and the words of Your wonders I shall speak.
And the strength of Your awesome deeds they will tell, and Your greatness I shall sing.
Of the remembrance of Your abundant goodness they will speak, and of Your righteousness they will sing.
The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and of great kindness.
The Lord is good to all, and His mercies are on all His works.
All Your works will thank You, O Lord, and Your pious ones will bless You.
They will tell the glory of Your kingdom, and they will speak of Your might.
To make known to the children of men His mighty deeds and the glory of the majesty of His kingdom.
Your kingdom is a kingdom of all times, and Your ruling is in every generation.
The Lord supports all those who fall and straightens all who are bent down.
Everyone's eyes look to You with hope, and You give them their food in its time.
You open Your hand and satisfy every living thing [with] its desire.
The Lord is righteous in all His ways and kind in all His deeds.
The Lord is near to all who call Him, to all who call Him with sincerity.
He does the will of those who fear Him, and He hears their cry and saves them.
The Lord guards all who love Him, and He destroys all the wicked.
My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord, and all flesh will bless His holy name forever and ever.
