Living Words – Life from Above

This morning as I sought the Lord and prayed some of the promises from His Word, personalizing them and putting my name and the name of my family in them, I felt Holy Spirit accent certain words from this familiar passage, that encouraged me.

 

So, I thought I would have some fun, and pray these verses over you and your family today, in faith that Holy Spirit might meet with you personally today, and do these very accented things in your life today.

 

Here’s the verse:

 

Col 1:9 ¶  For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

10  That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

11  Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;

12 ¶  Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

13  Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

14  In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

 

Here’s the way I saw it this morning:

Col 1:9 ¶  For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray
col-pray
for you, and to desire
col-desire
that ye might be filled
col-filled
with the knowledge
col-knowledge
of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
col-understand

10  That ye might walk worthy
col-walk-worthy
of the Lord
col-lord
unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing
col-increase
in the knowledge of God;

11  Strengthened
col-strength
with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and

longsuffering with joyfulness;
col-joy

12 ¶  Giving thanks
Thank You Jesus
unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

13  Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

14  In whom we have redemption
col-redemption
through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

col-forgiveness
Join withe me and pray and proclaim:

So I Pray,

with fervent Desire, Holy Spirit FILL you with Divine Knowledge that would show you who you are as a royal child before His throne. That this Understanding would so encourage and Empower you, that you would square your shoulders back, and decide to Walk worthy of Jesus, King of all Kings, and Lord of all Lords,  and as a creation of the Creator of all things, would be constantly Increasing in revelation of who He is ALL-Mighty God of the universe, heaven and earth, and that you would be Strengthened by His ALL-Mightiness, His Power (that created the universe and raised Jesus from the dead). That this touch of heaven would so fill you with Joyfulness, that you laugh at adversity, the devil and all his tricks.  That in light of Jesus incredible Redemption and completion of our lives, we walk Gratefully, humbly, and confidently knowing that despite His great Holiness and searing glory, we have found Forgiveness of our sins. Amen.

There is One we all seek…

There is One we all seek….

hunger

As I read this passage this morning, it comes alive to me!
Mark 1:37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee.
This is truth!

Whether people know it or not, all of us are seeking for one thing in life, Him!

needful

He is the author and finisher of our faith, and our life, He is the one that can meet our deepest need.
Family is good. Relationships are good. Work is good. Money is good. Sex is good. Food is good. Exercise is good. Travel is good. Knowledge is good. Art and Music are good.
Yet, as good as all these things are, there is an itch that none of these can scratch, a deeper longing in every human heart, designed to be filled only by one thing: Him.
Whether rich or poor, from whatever country, language, or culture we come, there is One that we all seek.
His name is Jesus….

fall on Jesus
Let’s Pray:
‘Father, reveal Jesus to me. Meet with me. I need you. Show me why I am here, the purpose for which I am created. Jesus, I want to know you, hungry, for what only you can give, a hunger deep within, for you, the living God. Amen’
