War Room (2015)
It’s easy to get caught up. There is so much going on externally that I forget my internal being, the core of who I am.
Pull me into the Holy Place LORD, and run Your Spirit through me. Catch me within Your embrace once again and walk with me. Reveal Your works and lead me to serve
God lifted David out of a pit, set his feet on a rock, and put a new song in his mouth. All because David cried out to the Lord (Psalm 40:1). If you’re in a pit, cry out, “God, help me, deliver me!
David said: “He turned to me and heard my cry.” Oh God’s ear is always open to the cry of His children. But notice: He said, “ I WAITED for the Lord, and He heard my cry.” Jesus responds to the prayers of His people, but sometimes we have to wait. Many a times we want to give up and quit. We get bitter and complain, “This thing doesn’t work.” No, David’s eyes were still on God, even though the answer didn’t come when he wanted it.
Friend, I encourage you to wait on God today. Some prayers are answered in a moment, and others take time. Do not get ahead of God. He is good to those who wait for Him, and He will answer your prayer.
What we have

I’m thinking today on something in particular which God has given me in abundance and how to better use it in a way which is pleasing and honors God. -All that we truly have is all from…
Bless the Lord
Bless the Lord O my Soul. For Your love endures forever. Amidst all the chaos, rebellion, turmoil, the ups and the downs, you do not relent fighting on behalf of me. What a beautiful God You are? Who so lovingly crafted me and so carefully watch over me. And listen when I speak and yearn for me. Lord, I pray that You are blessed through my life and You would look upon me and be pleased. Forgive…
Prayer
Dear Lord, thank You for this time to come before You and reflect upon all that You have taught me. I learned today to be careful of what we rationalize by scripture. Rather than carrying a cause, You’ve called us all to carry the cross. Lord, let my source of everything come from You and me to know that. To draw from Your everlasting well that never runs dry. To depend on You and rely on You and…
Cause Lord You’re the One who picked me up/Brushed me off and called me loved/You showed me I am Yours/I’m amazed, I’m amazed, I’m amazed
