Hello Family, I hope and pray you have had a great weekend, please help me pray,
Father in Heaven, it is Your Word, Your blessings that I find myself most thankful for on this day. You have chosen to bless my life in ways that I have never expected; I give humble thanks for all that You have done in my life. I pray for healing for our brothers and sisters that are in great need, asking that You step in with Your healing hands and bring them back to good health. I know that on this day there are surgeries planned for any number of reasons. I also know that You are aware of each and every one of them and I so pray that You stand with the surgical and medical teams to provide the most expert of care during this stressful time. Guide them Father and build a hedge of protection about them so their concentration is only on the task at hand. Lord Jesus I am before You as a sinner and I pray forgiveness of the sins that I bring to You, knowing that Your blood was shed and Your life was given to wash away my sins and provide a doorway to the Father upon Your ascension into Heaven. I pray for new life full of the Holy Spirit that will be my intention to share with others that perhaps I have not even yet met; perhaps we don’t even speak the same language except that holiest of understanding that come from the heart and the Spirit within. You are the Savior, the Teacher and the Way and I am ready to follow and walk with You.
Father God I pray that You will forever be with me, with my brothers and sisters of the world and that with Your help I am able to guide others to Jesus so they too may know Him as their Savior. Use me in this way and direct me on the path You know is best for me to take. In Christ Jesus' name I pray…..AMEN
Welcome again Family, it is always good to be with you on these weekend blessings that God has allowed me to express myself. As always I pray that perhaps one will take something positive away from the words that I discover on the screen. I so appreciate and respect their Creator and give Him thanks as an instrument of delivery.
Remember back as kids when we used to be able to freely roam about, especially those of us that grew up in or near the country? Times then were ripe for exploring, creeks, hills, maybe even mountains in some areas, caves…areas you wouldn’t let your kids or grand-kids run around unsupervised today. Those were some great times, using rocks as fortresses, caves as secret meeting places, devising a fort in the woods that would withstand any attack.
Today as adults maybe we revisit those places or find similar places and use them now as a place of reflection, not just of the past, but to appraise the present, and think about the future. They still remain a safe “haven” for us just as before, perhaps a place we take our significant other and explain some of the past glory that was experienced in the area with great friends. As you sit there you may come to realize a far greater presence at work than you ever knew before.
God is there with you and He knows of all your contemplations. He stands there with you as your rock and with that rock you have safe refuge. God is there as your fortress, that impenetrable Spirit that provides a stronghold for all who choose to believe. He is every bit as strong, even stronger than any of the rocks you used in the past, or cave as a place of safety for He becomes our strength. Just as David notes in many psalms that celebrate strength of the rocks and who made them, our Father and God; he is our rock, our very salvation in whom we find refuge like no other.
I love, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer, my God, my rock in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. Psalm 18:1-2
Go In Peace
Blessings to you all
Aloha
Randy
