eager to praise

All of creation praises loud
as voices it carries to God
nothing held back
the beauty of self abandon

oh God help me be like that

The trees stretch upward
they wave in union with the wind
acknowledging the Creator
Praises rise Praises rise

God help me be like that

God reveal my intentions
reveal my inhibitions
reveal withheld parts of my heart
God reveal me so it can be burned

God make me like that

Burn me as the silver in a pot
removing all impurities
removing all shapes of "me"
as You make me reflect Jesus

Untill I am like all creation, praising my Creator

Wonderful Names of our Wonderful Lord

Fortress

The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. Psalm 18:2

"A mighty fortress is my God," and no evil may reach the soul that shelters there. There is no saint of God who may look back through all the troubled years of any earthly pilgrimage, and not say, if he shall truly speak, "I have been kept by the power of God." Every failure of our lives and each defeat has come when we have sought some earthly fortress rather than our Lord. I am hiding, Lord, in Thee. Amen.

Numbers 13:31-32

But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.
And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature.

Prayer

I reject every evil report no matter where it comes from in Jesus name.
I refuse to see anything negative in relation to the promises of God concerning me and all that concerns my household.
I will succeed in this new year. Amen.

lead me to the cross

Lead me to the cross where Your love poured out
lead me to my knees i belong to You
rid me of myself Lord i lay me down
led me to the cross
led me to YOUR heart

Oh God i long to be like You
to love like YOU
to forgive as YOU
to shine like YOU
to heal as YOU

lead me to the altar of self sacrifice
tie me down tight with many strong ropes
for my flesh is fighting with all it has
and my human heart seeks prideful applause

tear out of me this human condition
this self preservation and self adoration
this sin born in me at birth
be a fire burning in my bones seeking You

rise in me my GOD and be not a gentleman
it is my request even my deep desire
to be destroyed and recreated in Your image
to shine like the SON and glorify You Father

oh SAVIOR i come
quiet my soul
redemptions here, where Your blood was spilt
where YOU in the flesh bore my sins in death
now i rise with YOU
now i am made new like YOU
