My Prayer - January 14, 2010

Thursday, January 14, 2010
O God, I am so grateful that I am not an orphan in this universe. I have a homeland, the kingdom of God. And because nothing can hinder the establishing of that kingdom, I have a peace that nothing can disturb. I am so grateful. Amen.

Father, I am utterly amazed when I realize you have not only taken me out of Satan's Kingdom, but you are using my prayer, when it is in line with you pattern, to demolish his kingdom and re-establish yours. Help me participate with all my might. Amen.

Lord Jesus, not only have you forgiven me, but you keep on forgiving me. Help me realize, however, that though your forgiveness is free, it is not cheap. For you had to die in order to bring me forgiveness. Help me never forget that. Amen.

Father, I see that again you are about ot face me with a strong and serious challenge. Forgive me if I draw back when your lance plunges deep. I have lived with demandingness for so long that I might not even be able to recognize it. Help me, Lord. Amen

O God, I am so thankful for the experience of my own conversion. May the wonder of it never dim within me. It began in a miracle and is sustained by a miracle. Blessed be your wonderful name forever. Amen.

And It Begins!

It is 11:05pm on Saturday night. I don't know what time it will be when I actually click on "PUBLISH POST".

Tonight is the night before the fast begins. Our Saturday night service was good. Pastor Stovall puts things in different perspectives. It's so refreshing to look at things in a different light! Service and worship were great, but honestly, they always are at Celebration Church.

I feel that I am prepared for the fast. I have figured out what I am going to fast, and my priorities, etc.

Well... Then LateNite. WOW! First of all, our worship was good, as it always is. After the third song, one of our CLC people came up and began to talk about Pastor Josh Turner's daughter, Riley. She is on life support now, from my understanding. Well, as soon as she began to tell us about Riley, God just broke me down. I don't know why. The Holy Spirit just but such a heavy feeling on my heart. I just began worshiping God, and praying for the Turner family..... tears racing down my face. I still do not understand why this heavy heart, but it was there... and still is.

Speaking of which, please pray for them. Not just a quick prayer, but lift the Turner's up to your creator, your savior, your comforter. Stand in agreement with Josh Turner in the name of Jesus.

I promised to blog daily. This is today's. I've experienced the Holy Spirit in a thick, almost like... wow, I really don't know how to explain it. It's unlike anything we are used to in a natural sense. And the fast hasn't even started yet!

For any of you reading this that are partaking in this fast, I warn you that God is going to do amazing things! Be ready for His holy, just and righteous hand to move in your life. Thank you Jesus!
