The Throne Room of Grace

'However, you are chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, people who belong to God. You were chosen to tell about the excellent qualities of God, who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not God’s people, but now you are. Once you were not shown mercy, but now you have been shown mercy.' 1 Peter 2:9-10 (GW)

So here I am, being called a priest again and getting ready to ascend with Jesus to the throne room where I will praise Him in all of His Glory. I was invited to that Holy place and I will stay in the cloud just long enough to see His glory and to be filled with His light. I will stand in His presence long enough until I hear Him say all is well, return to the valley to bear more fruit. And I go. I go willingly to the valley for the valley is my own garden that He has give me. He gave it to me and assigned it to my care. I love my valley. My valley is my home, my community and my church. 

I was called out of the darkness and made into the image of His Great Light. He calls me one of His chosen people, yet there is nothing spectacular about me, only that I have seen Him and been changed in the process to be more like Him. The more I see Him, the more I desire to be like Him. The more I see Him, the more Light that is in me. The more Light I have the more that just naturally flows out of me to those I love around me. The more Light I have in me, the less I see of the darkness around me.Yet, I still desire more of Him. Yet, I still desire more Light. Yet, I ascend with Jesus again to the throne room of Grace.

The throne room, that Holy place. The place of praise. The place of holiness. The place of eternity. The place of mercy. We approach Your throne room of grace even now. Looking to praise You during the storm. Looking to thank You for bringing us through. Looking to bask again in Your most marvelous Light. Thank You Jesus for saving me. Thank You Jesus for taking me with You to that special place. Thank You for healing me. Your grace is always sufficient. I praise You.

The Day of the Lord Approaches

Image
' not forgetting to gather as a community, as some have forgotten, but encouraging each other, especially as the day of His return approaches.' Hebrews 10:25 (VOICE) Days of future trials are coming and yet are here. Last days. The day of His return approaches. No one knows the hour. So we are told to be even more diligent in our calling. We should be always watching, praying and bringing a word of encouragement to one another through the power of God. For what signs and wonders happen in the House of the Lord! Oh so amazing. The Miraculous. God provides the Fire. The battle is the Lords. We are told not to fret but only to enjoy the ride as we thank Him. So as I pray I want to thank you Lord. I am totally devoted to You. Equip me to preach the gospel. Now is the time and I will not forget my mission. As I arise I will not forget to put on my Full Armor of God. I will cling to your Bible. I am committed to carry it with me. I will hold it up as a sword in the town ...

The Look

Image
' Looking straight into their eyes, Jesus replied, “Humanly speaking, no one, because no one can save himself . But what seems impossible to you is never impossible to God!”' Matthew 19:26 (TPT) So if the poor deal with envy and the rich with pride, who then can get in? Who can be saved? None, except through the grace of God. Only God can save us. Only God can change the hearts and minds of men. Nothing is impossible to Him.  Dear Father Thank you for loving us and sending us Your Son Jesus our Savior even while we were yet sinners. When we were sinners You pursued us and turned our hearts toward You.  With just one look You could see into our souls. You knew what we needed. You did what needed to be done. You did the thing that seemed impossible to man. You perfected a Way for us to be reconciled to You and even with our sinful natures. You made converts out of us. It's nothing we could have done on our own without You. We could never doubt You. You cleaned us ...

A Warrant to Believe

Image
' By “the Lord” what I mean is the Spirit, and in any heart where the Spirit of the Lord is present, there is liberty.' 2 Corinthians 3:17 (VOICE ) Holy Spirit thou art welcome in this place. For wherever the Spirit is there is Life and Liberty. The Spirit brings with it freedom. Joy. Believers, we are blessed. God is gracious. Through the Cross, He has given us a way to be free from the law of sin and death. The veil between us and God has been lifted. The Holy Spirit brings the Light of Christ which illuminates and frees us from former blindness and darkness. The Spirit brings regeneration and sanctification as we are changed and made more like Christ everyday. We are free to walk in the ways of the Lord. Oh how we need thee this very hour Holy Spirit. Issue to us a warrant not as in the world and its laws, but of the gospel to believe. We do believe in You. Thank You Lord! Dear Father We repent to You this day, that we have failed to seek more of You. You kno...
