when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

Daniel 9:
16 O Lord, according to all Your righteousness, I pray,
let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem,
Your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people are a reproach to all those around us.
17 Now therefore, our God, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, and for the Lord’s sake cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary, which is desolate.
18 O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city which is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds,
but because of Your great mercies.
19 O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act!
Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city
and Your people are called by Your name.
The Lord will pour out a Spirit of supplications

The Lord will comfort His Watchman Intercessors

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
