Worship The Lord!

Heavenly Father,

I am learning the importance of worship.

Worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness;

tremble before him, all the earth. Psalm 96:9

I only wish that I could worship you in a manner that you deserve. I can worship you for what you have done. I can worship you (in faith) for what you will do. I can worship you for who you are - in my limited knowledge of who you are. I want to see you. I want to know more. I want to have the awe that I know I should have because of who you are.

Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;

worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness. Psalm 29:2

I have awe because of what you have done in my life. I am thankful that you have revealed yourself to me and brought me out of so many things. I am thankful for the joy only you have put in my heart - the joy that stays with me even in hard times.

I pray for Travis that you would release something in him. I pray he would be able to surrender to you the praise he knows is in him. He has confessed with his mouth that he wants to praise with all he has, but he cannot let go. I pray that you would speak to him through your holy spirit the words he need to hear to let go of what is holding him back.

David, wearing a linen ephod,

danced before the LORD with all his might,

while he and the entire house of Israel

brought up the ark of the LORD

with shouts and the sound of trumpets. 2 Samuel 6:14-15

I pray for Ms. Jeralds. I pray that you would help her to trust you in her finances. I pray you would provide her with a job. I pray you would help her physically and emotionally with the sadness and crying she is experiencing. I pray that if it is a physical problem that it would be identified and quickly treated, but if it is the enemy coming against her, that she would reach out to you and you would drive the enemy far away. You have promised that:

no weapon forged against you will prevail,

and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. Isaiah 54:17

I pray for Jim’s aunt June as she is preparing to leave this world. I pray for his mother that she would be able to let her go when the time comes. I pray you would be comfort for both of them during this time of their lives.I pray for Barb’s kids and the things they are going through. I pray for the safety of Emma in that situation. I pray you would intervene there and give wisdom to those who need to make decisions where the little girl is involved. I pray that there would be liberty where there is bondage.

I pray for Tom and Scott as they council this man, Jeff. I pray you would give them the words they need to encourage this man and point him towards peace and joy in your salvation. Reveal yourself to him, so he is able to see past his circumstances and get through this time in his life.
I pray you would help Darla in the situation with the blended family. Bless her for standing up for what is right.

I thank you for hearing me and for desiring to help even the smallest details of my life.
I pray this all in Jesus Name and for his sake.
Amen

Trust in the Name!

We will shout for joy when you are victorious

and will lift up our banners in the name of our God.

May the LORD grant all your requests.

Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed;

he answers him from his holy heaven

with the saving power of his right hand.

Some trust in chariots and some in horses,

but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

Psalm 20:5-7

Heavenly Father,

My Lord and my God! How great it is to be able to come to you and put my cares into your hands. You are so able and willing to hear and answer me. I can rest, knowing you are in control.

I pray for Bruce, who is in the hospital with broken and crushed bones in his leg and ankle. I know you have created those bones from nothing, and you can if you choose recreate them from the splinters that remain. You can cause them to come back together the way they are meant to be. Hebrews 11:3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. I ask that you glorify yourself in the eyes of the unbelievers - when the doctor goes back in for surgery today, that he finds improvement if not a complete healing of his leg and ankle. If this is not your will, then I pray you give Bruce the grace to endure what is ahead.

I pray for Faye, who is in the hospital with pancreas problems. I thank you that the doctors were able to determine the cause of her sickness. I pray you would be with her today as they do tests and decide a course of treatment for her. I pray that you would speak to her during this time. Remind her of who you are. I pray that she would experience something special with you as a result of this illness.

I pray that you would continue to comfort the boys in the loss of their father. there is no way for us to comprehend or understand something like that let alone try to explain to a 10 and 6 year old. Only you can get them through.

I pray for Scott as he travels. I pray that you would give him the words to say when he talks to his friend. I pray that you would reveal yourself to that man. I pray the things he thinks he already knows would not cloud the truth about who you are and the kind of relationship you want to have with him.

I thank you for hearing me, and I know that you are able!
I pray in Jesus Name!
Amen
