Let’s Pray in the Light

- JaclynPalmer Leave a comment

Heavenly Father,

You say whatever is brought into the light becomes light. Lord, as easy as that sounds, there is much vulnerability and honesty required. There is a feeling of insecurity that runs through our veins. There is a battle of readiness that we don’t even want to face. Yet, we long for the light in our area of darkness.

Back and forth we rage.

Lord God,

In Your presence

wrapped in Your love

I pray you will shine your light upon_______________. Father, just saying this truth cause my words to faulter, my heart to skip a beat of regret. I know you are not surprised but I am. I am not used to expressing my inner truths to anyone’s ears, let alone my God’s ears.

Lord, I pray you will settle my thoughts right now. I ask that you will speak truth over my words. Help me to listen to you right now.

Sweet Father, I pray for confidence in this time with you. I know me. I know the cycle that is going to come. I know. Please teach me a new cycle. Help me to rise above what I know and learn a response that is of You. May I grow to be stronger in this area.

Thank you for hearing my words. Thank you for trusting me with yours. And thank you for walking with me. Lord, I feel your forgiveness and confidence. May these two things light my heart, my soul, my day, my path.

Selah.

**1 John

Freedom In His Love

Freedom In His Love ~ Week Six
(Never Forsaken)

Simple Truth

Love is a many splendored thing. 😉 Yet, love has broken us, left us, hurt us, or forsaken us at some point in our life. From our first pet to a parent. From puppy love to your spouse. Love has brought us pain.

Then we hear that God is love and that God loved the whole world and that He will never forsake us.

And we sit there trying to understand His infinite love via our human hurt. And we view God’s love through our personal experience. And we receive His love at arm’s reach as we protect ourselves from being hurt once again.

Because the idea of being hurt by God our creator is a pain too big to comprehend. Such immense devastation. A heartbreaking thought. So, we remain in our space beside His love rather than embraced by it.

Well, we think we do.

We think we have the ability to limit His love for us.

We think we are that big, that powerful.

Consider: Have you received God’s love given to you through the death and resurrection of His Son, Jesus Christ? Will you share your testimony of when you found His love?

Challenge: Write a letter from God to you. See (via your own words) if you view His love for you through His infinite love or through your human heart.

*Search Scripture if you need to learn more of His verbal love for you.

Scripture

~ Hebrews 13:5

Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Final Thought

Psalm 118 proved to be a psalm of praise and beauty perfectly set for our study on finding Freedom In His Love. It is one that proclaims the very love of the Father, the personal love of David for His King, and a written testimony of the Savior’s most powerful gift, the gift of Salvation.


I encouraged each of us to spend time in Palm 118 in connection with Hebrews 13. May we see the vitality of the sacrifice of praise. May we understand the importance of offering our heart of worship to God. May we remember to set our eyes on the day the Lord had made. May we purpose to rejoice in the day of our Salvation. May we pause and breathe and be glad in it!


God loves you. God is with you. God will not walk away from you. God will not turn His back on you. He will not leave you or forsake you. He will not fail you. He is God. He calls you His. He loves you always and forever. God sees you. For God loves you.

Prayer for Salvation

- JaclynPalmer Leave a comment

Lord God,

How marvelous are the works of Your hand. How lovingly You hold us in the same mighty hand that moves mountains, that silences strongholds, that comforts the broken hearted. Oh, Father, how marvelous You are!

Lord, may I sit before Your Throne, gathered together with my prayer warriors, in request for truth? Lord, You are Truth. Your words are truth. Your very presence as the Great I AM is truth. Father God, will You reveal Your truth today?

Lord, may it seem right in Your eyes to use our lips to proclaim Your truth. Will You fill us with the abundance of Your greatness? Will your words of power and of love and of truth spill upon all whose ears are open? Will You use us this very day to proclaim the evidence of Jesus, the risen Son of God?

Oh, that our world needs to hear!

Jesus, Your love for our eternal soul sets You apart from all others. You showed us the depth of Your love for us in a way that has never been seen before or duplicated. Your love is beyond belief. Yet, belief is all you ask for in return.

I pray for those who have placed their faith in your death on the cross.

Father, I pray they, Your children, will stand on their faith in You. I pray they will find victory in who they are, for they are Yours! I pray for their eyes to be set on You, their heart to be full of you, their soul to be overcome by you, and that they will proclaim the everlasting steadfast love of Jesus Christ! Father, strengthen your sweet child this very moment. In the name of Jesus I pray this for my brothers and my sisters in Christ.

I pray for those who are searching for truth.

Oh, that they will connect truth with You! That they will see Your word as undeniable. That there is concrete evidence of God’s love for mankind. Demonstrated by Christ in the flesh. Alive in those who believe by the filling of Your Spirit. You are Truth. And You are trustworthy. In a day when truth is debatable and faulty and unknown, You are trustworthy.

God, I pray salvation (belief in Jesus) in the heart of the one reading this prayer right now. Speak truth to their heart right now. I pray they hear the truth of Jesus’ love, that they will believe in the name of Jesus Christ, and that -in their belief in Your evidential truth- they will be set free. Free from doubt and fear and uncertainty.

Marvelous. Yes, how deeply marvelous are your ways.

Amen & Amen

**Romans 10
