Dear Father, I come to You this morning thanking You. I thank You for much instruction and that You give your children much understanding. Thank You for revealing yourself to me through your Word. Thank You for revealing yourself to me through my own experiences. You are the unseen God and the great I AM. You are the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. Without You, nothing would be. You are Wisdom and your Law speaks about your ways and helps us to learn your thoughts. You lead an eternal life. You are eternal life. It is through your Word, that You bear this gift to your children. There is none like You. You have chosen for yourself a righteous generation, whom by your own hand, You made righteous. You have chosen for yourself a people that You have set apart, a people that You have called out of darkness to be in your marvelous light that lead in your eternal way. In your hands, You have written down the life story of each of your children. You had their days set from your place of eternity even before the beginning of time. You know what is in our minds. You know what is in our heart. Your Word looks upon our very mind and heart. You know the most intimate details of our lives. You know what we will say next. You know what we are thinking to do next. For You are our Father. You created us. You look upon your creation. Father when we are faced with much trials, help us to understand that You purify and refine your creation, through the crucible of humiliation, purging out all that You have not created us to be. More so, far from what You intended for our lives. Help turn our face towards You in all circumstances knowing that You are our God and we are your people. We are to be holy and set in righteousness, for You are Holy. Father, much like the prodigal son, who has cashed in prematurely his inheritance and toiled his life away bearing little fruit, we turn to your way, pleading to be your humble servant. That You still make room for us your children. That we appreciate your love and all that You do for us. Let us not overlook all that You do in our lives. Make us O Lord, your kingdom of priests. Make us once again to be your Holy Nation, that holy priesthood. Such that we be ambassadors of your love. That we reflect your ways, the ways by which man live. Make us into your royal priesthood. Make us kings and priests ministering to You O Most High, God and Father. May we be your crown of glory as You uphold our ways, a royal diadem in your hand. May we obey your voice always and keep your covenant, that we become your special treasure. All honour and majesty rest with You. May we rejoice in You O Lord. May we lift up our hands in song and praise. May our hearts leap for joy, for You are our King. Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord from the heavens; Praise Him in the heights. Praise your Holy Name. All praises to You, O Most High. We lift up your Name in song. Hallelu-Yah 03.08.23 |
