His Loving Care

Two days ago, Monte and I were out in town.  As we were walking towards the bus stop, I heard someone calling out to me from behind.  A teenage girl gave me my spectacles.  I had apparently dropped it on the ground.  I thanked her.

I had the reading glasses made in June 2022.  What makes this testimony incredible is that the incident happened in the night when visibility was poor.I thank God for watching over me in every possible manner.  

We find every circumstance to thank God.  He watches over us.  He reaches out to the inner recesses of our hearts and assures us of His love and faithfulness daily.  We live to see a sign of His goodness.  Our merciful God keeps us safe from seen and unseen danger.  He protects us and loves us deeply.  He showers His love on us lavishly.

Captivate Our Hearts

Ponder His mighty works.  Ponder His unending mercies.  Ponder His loving deeds.  Ponder His abounding grace.  Ponder His undying hope.

Let our hearts and minds be completely consumed by Your love.  Let the power of Your love give us courage and perseverance.  Captivate us with Your love.  Empower us by Your Spirit.

Let the meditations of our hearts be acceptable to You.  Let our hearts be pure.  Let our motives be pure.  Let our intentions be pure.  Touch us for Your glory.

We Triumph In You

We call to mind the faithfulness of our eternal God.  Lord, You help us to climb the mountains of life.  Climbing the mountain often involves difficulties, hardship and mounting challenges.  

There are times when it gets unbearable; You  beckon us to persevere.  You hold us by our hands and lead us patiently.  

Lord, we surge forward by the power of Your grace.  We press in to Your presence.  We dwell in the shadow of Your wings.  We triumph from faith to faith.  We triumph from glory to glory.  We triumph in Your grace.  

With all that is within us, we magnify Your magnificent name. The name above every other name. 

Lift Us Up

Spirit of God, lift us up.  You are the lifter of our hearts.  You are the lifter of our heads.  You lift us up with Your love.  You lift us up by  Your power.  

Flood our hearts with Your presence this day.  You are the glory and the lifter of our heads. 

In You we live and move and have our being.  Spirit of God, come and empower us by Your Spirit.

Our hearts burn with Your love.  Love personified.  Love deified.  Love entering our hearts.  Abiding within us.  Love dwelling in us. Love habitating in us.  Let Your love flood our hearts.  Let the river of Your love captivate us.

We Bow With Humble Adoration

You create the moon to mark the seasons.  You created the stars and named each of them.  The power of Your glory is displayed in the universe.  Your beauty and glory is beyond description.  We bow in worship.  We bow in humble adoration.  To our God eternal, Immortal, great, glorious and magnificent!  

We stand in awe of Your goodness.  We marvel at Your love.  We rejoice in Your hope.  Come, Lord!  Saturate our hearts with Your holy presence.  Move powerfully upon our hearts we pray.

We Put Our Trust In You

Lord, we call upon Your mighty name. We trust in Your holy name. We do not put our trust in out talents and abilities.  We do not put our trust in our resources. 

We trust You alone. We trust You from the rising sun till it sets in the evening. We trust in Your faithfulness. We trust in Your goodness.  We trust in an unchanging God. We trust in our God who is fully dependable.

Pour Your Spirit on us.  Let Your faith abound in our hearts. We put our trust in You almighty God. Empower us to live in the light of Your glory and grace. Faithful God, we lean on You.

The Balm of Gilead

I bring my mum before God's throne daily. She has a host of health challenges.  In 2019, my mum was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.  

In March 2021,  the memory specialist diagnosed her to be in the moderate to severe stage of the disease. The strange thing is in May 2022, she was diagnosed to be in the early to moderate stage.

The memory clinic doctor discharged my mum in July 2022. Glory be to God!  

God is so good. I vividly recall the memory doctor telling me that the medication will not cure my mum. It will slow down her Alzheimer's disease.

I believe the Lord has touched my mum. This is not something natural. God performs miracles. He is our mighty healer. 

God is able to touch and heal my mum. The healing balm of Gliead flows through her.  

We serve a mighty God. Our great physician inspires our hearts to trust Him for healing.

Each of us carry the presence of God wherever we go. As we enter homes and communities, God works through us to touch the people on His heart. 
 
God has given us the power of His presence.  Lives will be transformed. The sick will be healed. The power of God is at work in our broken lives.

God is with us. Many of us have aging and sick parents. The Lord assures us of His hand of love on our loved one.  He watches over us. He cares deeply for us.  

We trust God in every situation. He rules. He reigns. God is with us in every season of our lives.

The Tenderness of Christ

Soften our hearts, Lord! Let the tenderness of Christ reside in us.  Remove all harshness and hardness. Tenderise our hearts with Your love.  Tenderise our hearts with Your grace.  Tenderise our hearts with Your mercy.  

Let the soil of our hearts be ever ready to receive the touch of Your Spirit.  Let our hearts be pliable in Your loving hands.  

Come Lord!  Come and bring wholeness and purity.  Come and restore our broken lives.  Come and rebuild our broken ruins.

The Fire of Your Love

Purify us from deep within. Let Your fire burn. Burn away the chaff. Burn away the dross. The fire of Your fire burns deep and strong.

The pure in heart shall see the Lord.  In our purity, God opens our eyes to see. He opens our ears to hear. He opens our hearts to understand.

Lord, let the search light of Your Spirit search our hearts. Let the meditations of our hearts bring You joy and delight. Do a deep surgery on our hearts. Cleanse us and empower us.  

Energise and rebuild us. Refire and renew us by the power of Your Spirit. Come Holy Spirit, we welcome You. Do a deep and a lasting work in us. Have mercy on us.

We Want To Know You More

Knowing God is one of our greatest blessings.  Each day, God reveals more of Himself to us. 

We are limited, what we know of God is the tip of the iceberg. There is so much more to explore. 

God in His mercy and love has covenanted to love us.  As we discover the Lord, we realise that there is so much more. He reveals more of Himself to us as we seek Him.  

This amazing journey of discovery will only deepen and widen by His grace. The more we know Him, the more we love Him.

The love of God is unfathomable. The journey to the heart of God is not smooth sailing but the satisfaction and reward is unparalleled.   

We live to see a sign of God's goodness.  We live by the breath of God. We live to see a glimpse of His glory.  

Only He can satisfy our longing. Only He can meet our needs.

We cry out in desperation. Our hope is in Him. Our life is in Him.
Nothing else matters.  

All we want is to see Him glorified in our broken lives. We want to know Him.  We want to hear His still small voice.  We cling to Him. We need the Lord.

Mercy

God allows us to go through difficult circumstances. God will use anything in our paths to bring change and growth.  

The situations and circumstances can be challenging. In some instances, it is increasingly difficult to bear the pain and anguish. What is mind blowing is that the difficulties may continue to loom large and suffocate us. But God changes our perspectives. He helps us to overcome.

We begin to see through His eyes. We begin to hear through His ears. We begin to understand with His heart. God in His mercy showers us with His love and compassion. He empowers us to go through the fire. We will not drown in the raging sea. God protects us.  He covers us with His love and presence.

All He asks is our complete trust. The power of God's presence permeates through every fibre in our bodies. God floods our hearts with His love and strength. He motivates us. He is the strength of our hearts.

Your Living Hope

Abba Father, we lean on You.  We trust in You.  We hope in Your glory.  Sanctify us this day.  Captivate our hearts.  Cleanses us with fire.  Move upon our hearts.  Turn our hearts like rivers of water.  We will go where You want us to go.  The sole purpose of our existence is to glorify You.  We worship in reverential love and fear.  We bow in humble adoration.  Consume our lives at Your altar.  We will not hold anything back.  We surrender all.  We abandon ourselves at Your altar.  Come, Spirit of God.  Come and empower us.  Come and flood our hearts with Your holy power.  Let Your living hope burn deep and strong in us.

In The Eye Of The Storm

The storms in our lives will come. The storms we go through do not define us. The attitude we possess speaks volume of our walk with God.

If we are constantly crying out and calling out to God, we will stay intact. Those of us who have a vibrant and strong walk with our maker will survive the storm. 

Our walk with God will be tested.  Scriptures tell us that His redeemed and sanctified people will be strong. Their courage will not melt away. The immense power and grace of God empower us to weather the most severe storms in our lifetime.

In the eye of the storm, God manifests His power and glory.  He spoke the world into existence. He is the maker of the universe. He is in complete control.

Deep calls to deep. The communication between God and us are both ways. The deep yearning and longing for God is the very element that God uses to help us to overcome the varied and insurmountable challenges that we go through.

The power of God's presence releases us to face every storm. God unleashes His power and might and fight for us when we are too weak to even stand straight. 

The power of God is the power that saw Daniel through the lion's den. It is the same power that helped King David in his most vulnerable moments. 

The goodness of God prevails. The love of God prevails. The power of God's presence prevails.

We offer our lives as a living sacrifice. Consume us. Restore and rebuild us.

Your presence floods our hearts. You bring us solace and hope. You bring us comfort and strength. 

The power of Your presence overpowers us. The power of Your presence bring us release.
