Spend One Hour Praising God

My name is God. You hardly have time for me. I love you and will always bless you. I am always with you. I need you to spend an hour of your time with me, don’t pray, just praise.

Why do we feel sleepy in prayer, but stay awake through a 3 hour movie?

Why are we so bored when we look at the HOLY BOOK but find it easy to read other books?

Why are prayers getting smaller?

Why is it so easy to worship a celebrity, but very difficult to engage with God?

Think about it, are you going to ignore this because you think you will get laughed at? 80% will not do it.

God said if you deny me in front of your friends, I will deny you on the Day of Judgment.

When one door closes, God opens two. Has God opened doors for you?

God has no BLACKBERRY but he's my favorite contact.

He is not on FACEBOOK but he is my best friend.

He is not on TWITTER but I still follow Him, and even without the INTERNET I am always connected to him.

He is not on Gmail but he's always online.

Has God been good to you!

God has been very good to me. God has given me a wonderful family, great friends and so much more. How about you?

WILL YOU JOIN ME IN TAKING TIME TO PRAISE HIM FOR ONE HOUR THIS WEEK?


REMEMBER
“If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1John 1:9

Meditation in God’s Word Part 3

Rejoice with me before the Lord as we continue to mediate in God’s word. He is alive, my God is real for I can feel him in my soul. He has washed and made me whole and I thank him for his love.

Psalm 104:33-34 (KJV) 33 I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being. 34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the Lord.

Psalm 119:15-16, 23-25, 48, 77-78 (KJV) 15 I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways. 16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word. 23 Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes.24 Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counselors. 25 My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to thy word. 48 My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.

Psalm 119:77-78 (KJV) 77 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight. 78 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts.

Psalm 119:97-99 (KJV) 97 O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day. 98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.

Thank you again Lord for your love and your care, thank you for your tender mercies to me each day. Glory, glory, glory be to your holy name.

Meditation in God’s Word Part 4

Ah! I hope you are still with me. This is the last part on this thought. It was too long to do in one setting. As you allow God to set your bush on fire remember it is all about him and not you. If you are hungry God will fill you with his manna.

Psalm 119:145-149King James Version (KJV) 145 I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O Lord: I will keep thy statutes. 146 I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies. 147 I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy word. 148 Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word. 149 Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O Lord, quicken me according to thy judgment.

Psalm 143:5 (KJV) I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.

Philippians 4:8-9 (KJV) Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

1 Timothy 4:13-16 (KJV) 13 Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. 15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

I hope you have been fed as you read and meditated in God’s word. I encourage you to continue as we make preparation to pray.

Meditation in God’s Word Part 2

I give you the same challenge today I gave my congregation last week. Pray for one hour for YOU. Commune with God and allow him to speak to YOU. I think you will find it a blessing and you will cry out GLORY a time or two.
Let’s continue our scriptures now.

Psalm 5:1-3 (KJV) 5 Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation. Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray. My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

Psalm 19:14 (KJV) 14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
Psalm 49:3 (KJV) My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.

Psalm 63:6-8 (KJV) When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches. Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice. My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

Psalm 77:12-15 (KJV) 12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?14 Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.15 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.

Isn’t it wonderful to experience God as you meditate in and on HIS word.

Turn Aside to See, He Will Set Your Bush on Fire

These words are often used “He will set your fields on fire.” We love to be inspired and sing God’s praises and this is all wonderful, in fact I want to say GLORY. This week as I’ve sought God I have decided it’s time to get back to the simple thing that brings us to the place he will set our bush on fire.

What will do it? I think it is prayer and in this light I share scriptures and thoughts on Preparation for Prayer. These thoughts and verses were used by the ABM Department of Pastoral Care of the COGOP, Published by: J. Countryman Publishers Houston Texas and printed in Belgium
Meditation in God’s Word Part 1

Joshua 1:8King James Version (KJV)
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Psalm 1:1-3King James Version (KJV)
1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Think on these verses today and allow God to feed you. He loves you.
