Prayer to the Great Healer

Lord, today I pray to You the Great Healer. Father there is so much brokenness in the world. Sickness of body and mind. Lord I pray that your healing hand would be on those who are in desperate need of the Creator's power. Lord you know our bodies and our minds. You made them so intricately and you know each one of us by every single hair and teeny capillary. Father, I pray that your Spirit would breath life into those broken people. Lord you are the given and sustainer of life. Sustain us today. Father for those in need of a miracle, I lift them up to you. Lord, specifically for Mom, I pray that your Healing Spirit would dwell in her and begin to fix the physical brokenness. Remove the cancer. Father your will be done in the lives of those who walk with you and may those of us watching be given the Kingdom eyes to see it. Blessings to those who are weak. Blessings to those who are sick. Blessings to those who are in pain. Blessings to those who thirst for You. And lastly Father, may those who are experiencing moments of inexplicable joy, may they be able to fully embrace those times and relish in the happiness. Father you are the author and perfecter of our faith and our lives. To you be the glory both now and forevermore. Amen.

Blessed Assurance

Romans 8:38-39 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth , nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. This verse just makes me want to shout, "AMEN!" But isn't it frustrating how Satan knows exactly where to hit us to make us doubt? And then he is so good at kicking us while we are down. I, unfortunately, had this experience very recently. I was feeling a little worried about a particular situation and then Satan pounced and made me feel like an enormous loser. He was feeding me lies that he knew I would believe, because they are the same lies I always fall for. Thankfully, I was able to spend some time with God in quiet solitude. I was reminded that no matter what Satan throws at me, I will never be separated from the love of God because I have Christ Jesus...

Mercy and Compassion

Jude 22-23 Be merciful to those who doubt; snatch others from the fire and save them; to others show mercy, mixed with fear--hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh. This is something I have struggles with, loving those who frustrate me. How can we be merciful to those who are "corrupt" without being judgmental? It is definitely not our place to judge one another, it is our place to love one another. Sometimes loving the people who are rude or cruel is the hardest part of being a Christian. My humanity would like to judge people for their behaviors and choices and lash out at them. I believe we are only able to show true mercy and compassion for others when we accept these for ourselves from Jesus and then He lives them through us. Allowing God to change our hearts in order that Jesus' mercy and compassion shine through is a journey. It's not always easy. On those difficult days, I remain quiet and ask God to love on me, so I...

His Strength

Psalm 100:5 For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations. I was prompted to read this verse and it was perfect for today, of course. All of Psalm 100 is praise to God. For me today, I am praising God because He was faithful in something He had revealed to me a while ago. Let me explain. Have you ever asked God for His strength? Not just strength, but His strength. This is something that I was prompted to do about a year ago, not to just ask for strength in general, but to specifically request His strength to be given to me. I know it sounds a little like a bit of rhetoric, but keep reading. In requesting God's own strength, I have noticed something tremendous has happened each time. When God bestows His strength within me, it is so much more than just endurance. His strength comes with clarity of mind, lightening of the spirit, and a depth of inner joy that cannot help ...
