Almighty Father God, I love Your Words saying — “Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather and deliver us from among the nations, that we may give thanks to Your Holy Name and glory in Your praise” (1 Chronicles 16:35).
Yes LORD — You gathered me into You — fused Your Spirit into my spirit — to give You thanks — to glory in Your praise! Father life can feel difficult — can feel like pressures have turned up? When I am seeing Your victories — lies try to bombard my mind — temptations fly to cause discouragements — feelings rise screaming! This is my time to rise up higher, never lay down.
LORD God — this is when You say my face is set like flint — stronger attitudes soar! This is when I rise soaring like an eagle into Your victories greater. No matter how many things try to come against me. No matter! With You LORD, I am immunized with doing Your right things — even as wrong things clamor for attention.
Saying things like — “Forget it. I don’t have to put up with this. This marriage is never going to work. I’ll never be able to raise this child.” “This job, those people are no good. I’ll never make it!”
Yes Father! Instead of discouragement — instead of living talking sour, bitter — I say — “Praise You LORD — Your Love brought me so far — no stops — no lay downs now.”
Before today Father God— You saw everything in my life before the beginning into eternity (Psalms 139)! You knew every rock thrown onto my path trying to make me stumble! I trust You completely! You always safely lead me! In Your victories —Your Great Faith — Your trust is in me expecting Your Mighty Hands forever hold me!
Yes LORD, my spirit is fused with Your Spirit! Your armor on me is well seasoned! Lay back is never. I say — “Yes Father God thank You —pressures, real or imagined — have no rights in my life!” I say — “I embrace stronger my victories with You! Standing praising You — living in Your Great Faith is easy! Pressures always bow to Your victories!” — In Jesus’ Name! Amen
