Let Us Pray to Pray


Lord God Yahweh, always, as we bow our heads to seek your will, give us revelation and remembrance of your greatness over all that is and of your unlimited and Holy power to respond to our prayers. Grant to us true and clear remembrance and knowledge of who you are so that our prayers may properly enthrone and honor you first in all of our requests. Give us hearts and minds not only completely surrendered to your heart and desires, but committed to them in place of our own. Give us the words Lord as we pray to you that will alter the course of this world and the reward of our brothers wandering in the darkness of the enemy's plan. Put on our lips and our minds the words that will break the hand that shields their eyes from the truth of your existence and all that you have spoken.

Give revelation to our hearts and minds of the prayerful words that will allow your glory and power to be revealed in the world in greater measure as we bow before you in reverence. Grant us Lord, in your mercy to us, the keys to unlock your will to be done in the world and the courage and wisdom to use them for your glory. Speak into our prayerful minds the words to unlock the storehouses of heaven to meet the needs of a suffering world that all men may see the true source of our provision and sustenance and give glory to you, our true provider.

Lord, grant us wisdom beyond our own ability by your Holy Spirit. Give us the the ability to see our condition and the wisdom of this world for what they are. Expose to our hearts and minds the shallow value of the world's intellect and the depth of our need for the wisdom of our God. Let your wisdom become the ruling conviction and perspective of our lives by which we live with great pleasure. Restore and renew our minds to the fullness of your perspective so that we may be whole and so that our prayers will be effective in your kingdom to bring about your will even in the earth. Replace our understanding gained by our exposure to the world with heavenly revelation of the truth that has existed before us and that lives forever exposing your glory.

Lord, Adonai, please give us eyes to see as you see. Give us ears to hear as you hear and minds that think as you do. Teach us your ways and help us to walk in them without fail. Give us hearts that are moved by the things that move your own. Lord, grant us these things that we may truly be called the children and friends of our God and bring great joy to your own heart. Oh Lord God, we know that our success in the mission of this life is in our relationship to you and the pleasure we are able to bring to your great and awesome heart. Do not let us fail you Lord. Even our success in our life's mission is dependent on your grace to us. It is our desire to fulfill your heart's hope and purpose for our creation and enjoy forever the great and fulfilling wonders of your overwhelming presence. Great and awesome Lord God over all that is, with humble and reverent hearts, exalting your greatness and grateful for your mercy, please hear the sincerity of our hearts as we pray for the wisdom to pray for your will to be done.

Amen

Pure Religion

I've struggled with the term "religion" for a long time because it has come to carry a connotation for me of something orchestrated, institutional - a perfunctory exercise. My preference instead has been to highlight my belief that what our God desires from us is instead "relationship". Then I ran across this and I had to pause... "Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you." James 1:27 (NLT) " Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world ." James 1:27 (KJ) It doesn't matter the translation, it appears the same. And in it I denote a familiar spirit. I recognize it from scripture after scripture dealing with the care of, and justice for, the widows and the fatherless... "Sing to God, sing praises to His name;...

Fear not.

There's a lot going on in the world and a lot available to provoke fear for the future, but I have a question for anyone who might feel themselves tempted to fear - If you truly know God, does He ever change? “I am the LORD, and I do not change. That is why you descendants of Jacob are not already destroyed." Malachi 3:6 (NLT) We stand reinforced in our understanding and belief that He does not change, so... "The LORD says, “I will rescue those who love me.  I will protect those who trust in my name.  When they call on me, I will answer;  I will be with them in trouble.  I will rescue and honor them.  I will reward them with a long life  and give them my salvation.” Psalm 91:14-16 (NLT) I know that I said that I had "a" question, but I actually have another - do you really, truly love Him? “So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heave...

What If...

"For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.  And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account. "  Hebrews 4:12-13 (NKJ) I'm not one who appreciates the stoking of fear for the sake of it or unnecessarily. There are enough things in this life to keep people concerned and even constantly fearful if they subscribe to them. I would like though, to take a moment to encourage my brothers and sisters in Christ and any others who will take a little time to read this and give it some serious consideration because the subject has real   potential  consequences and there's still time to address any issues that we find upon reflection... If you were made aware that   sometime in the next hour  your life on earth was ...
