Take Me to the River

 

God is our refuge and strength,

a very present help in trouble. 

 Therefore we will not fear though the earth should change,
    though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea; 

 though its waters roar and foam,
    though the mountains tremble with its tumult. Selah

  There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
    the holy habitation of the Most High. 

 God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved;
    God will help her right early. 

 The nations rage, the kingdoms totter;
    he utters his voice, the earth melts. 

 The Lord of hosts is with us;
    the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah

 Come, behold the works of the Lord,
    how he has wrought desolations in the earth. 

 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
    he breaks the bow, and shatters the spear,
    he burns the chariots with fire! 

 “Be still, and know that I am God.
    I am exalted among the nations,
    I am exalted in the earth!” 

 The Lord of hosts is with us;
    the God of Jacob is our refuge.Selah

Psalm 46 (RSV)

Dear Father

Thank you for Your Word. Forgive me of my sins. Forgive us for killing one another in the name of politics. Evil, cease. I desire that You take me to the Holy Waters of Baptism again. So that I might be near the River where You are. Cleanse me in the River of Life Lord. Take away the hate and the images of death. I want to see You. To take Communion. I love Your Holy Sacraments.

 I pray for the Glory Days. And there You are! God in the midst of her. You are there for her in the morning. I see You high and lifted up! Where the streams make glad the city of God. Where You utter a word and the earth melts. You make the wars to cease. The God of Jacob, who sits on the Mercy Seat, You are our Redeemer, You are our God and our refuge. We will be still in this moment. We exalt You among all nations and in the earth for You are with us! We take comfort in You. You are our refuge. We will sing again of Your Great Glory!

In Jesus's name.

Amen.

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...
