Prophesy and Praise, Too

 'For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings. For both He who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one Father; for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren, saying,


“I will proclaim Your name to My brethren,
In the midst of the congregation I will sing Your praise.” (Psalm 22:22)

And again,

“I will put My trust in Him.” (Isaiah 8:17)

And again,

“Behold, I and the children whom God has given Me.” (Isaiah 8:18) Hebrews 2:10-13 (NASB)

The Psalmist prophesied of the coming of the Messiah and the New Testament revealed how God was able to bring many sons and daughters to glory through His suffering. Christ was perfected through His death and Glorified through His resurrection and He lives to sanctify those who are sanctified. Nor is He ashamed to call us brothers and sisters.

Jesus calls Himself one of us when we meet Him there. How very important is our praise to Heavenly Father. We've got to welcome Him there. Notice the purpose of it. Jesus Himself joins in the song of praise. Praise therefore then, releases the spirit of prophetic revelation. How much more a song sung in the Spirit?

When I praise You, God, Christ Himself comes to fill my mind with thoughts of Your glorious name. You are magnified by and through Your Son. The entire congregation is edified through Your praise. There You are Lord in the midst. Singing and glorifying God with the children that He has given thee.

Lord, when I sing praises to God I know that You are there. You are always welcome. You call me sister. I've seen Your face. I've heard Your voice. I've felt your presence. You call me daughter. I know You and I need to hear another prophetic word of encouragement from You. You say 'put your trust in God'. I will put my trust in Him! My exhortations of praise bring comfort to my mind, body and soul as I am filled with Your Glory.

Thank You Lord for Your mighty Presence. Thank you for Your Word. Fill Your House with praise. As we gather to praise You, the whole House is filled with Your Glory and we, the congregation are blessed.

The Day of the Lord Approaches

' 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...
