Daily Dose of Hope

'Let all that I am wait quietly before God, 

     for my hope is in him.' Psalm 62:5 (NLT)

 Yes I do. Every morning I come to You Lord for what I know that You will provide. My daily dose of hope. You have saved me in the past and I have grown more and more dependent on You for that salvation now. I am tired. I am weak. When I turn to You in prayer, it is there that I find my rest and You make stronger my faith and hope. In You alone will I trust and obey. You have all of me and my hope still remains in You.

 Dear Father
Thank you for Your Word that always refreshes me. Thank you for Your presence that always brings me peace. I turn to You during my quiet times. I turn to You during the storms. I turn to You in all times in between for You are always there to lighten my load.

You are always there, ready to restore me in every way. I can't hold back. I cannot be distracted. You are my health. I am nothing without You. I am rich beyond measure because you have adopted me into Your family. I am nothing without You. You have taught me the wisdom of Your ways. I am nothing without You. 

During the hustle and the bustle and the loud chatter from the world around me, I can be at peace and wait quietly before You. Though the world is foolish and offers another way, You have made Sabbath for me. Though my body may struggle my soul knows where to find You. I must find You for myself with Your Spirit as a guide as You have commanded. Holy Spirit guide me now. 

You have made me for You. I must wait for You for my soul needs to rest to know You. I was created for praise. I was put in this place for the loud cymbal crashes. Between each moment of worship there is a pause, there is a space, there is a rest...then there You are! I worship You in that moment of exultation and in that moment of rest. Thank you for Your Word. Thank you for healing me.  As I wait for You, thank you for always finding me there.
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...
