Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Today I’m praying for you. I may not know you personally or you may be among my group of besties but I AM PRAYING for you. Here are the requests I am making before the Throne:
Father in Heaven, grant every man and woman the ability to know You more and more. Open hearts, minds, and souls to Your incredible love for each of us. Make us aware that in Your Word we were not only created by You but created in Your image. (Genesis 1:27)
Creator of all that is, was, and is to come, help us know the great value You place in each of us. Help us understand deeply in every cell of our bodies that You take great joy in Your sons and daughters. You are the Redeemer of not only our souls, but our lives, our pasts, and our futures. You see us during our times of deepest fear and greatest joy. Help us know and understand Your great love for us. (Psalm 31:7)
Abba, Father, I know You hear each of us. You hear our praise. You hear our needs. You hear our nearly silent pleas for mercy. You hear us when we regret our sins. You hear us when we have no one but You. Oh, Lord, hear this prayer. Grant each of us the ability to totally trust in You. (I Chronicles 5:20)
I lift this prayer before the Throne of Grace, in the Precious Name of Jesus, my Lord, my Provider, my Savior… Make it so!

A sick man turned to his doctor as he was preparing to leave the examination room and said, “Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on the other side?” Very quietly the doctor said, “I don’t know.” “You don’t know? You, a Christian man, do not know what is on the other side?” The doctor was holding the handle of the door; on the other side came a sound of scratching and whining, and as he opened the door, a dog sprang into the room and leaped on him with an eager show of gladness. Turning to the patient, the doctor said, “Did you notice my god? He’s never been in this room before. He didn’t know what was inside. He knew nothing except that his master was here, and when the door opened, he sprang in without fear. I know little of what is on the other side of death, but I do know one thing…” “I know my Master is there and that is enough.” On this Memorial Day Weekend take the time to remember those who have gone into the Master’s arms.
Oh, How He Loves You and Me!!! Worship Him in song… Thank You by Ray Bolz.
Revelation 21:1-5 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Now the dwelling of God is with men, and He will live with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then He said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
Revelation 22:1-5 Then the angel showed me the river of the Water of Life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the Throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. No longer will there be any curse. The Throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and His servants will serve Him. They will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads. There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever.
Revelation 22:20-21 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God’s people. Amen.
Heavenly Father, make it so!
Does God sing?
I know the angels do. The Christmas Story tells us after Michael announced the birth of Jesus they sang, ‘Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, goodwill toward men’.
John tells us in Revelation that he heard and saw the angels around the throne singing heavenly music (my words).
I heard a sound like massed choirs in Heaven singing, Hallelujah! Revelation 19:1 (The Message)
The Prophet Zephaniah not only says God sings but that He rejoices over us when He does.
The LORD your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:17
How can I say thanks when Your word so clearly says You care so much that You not only sent Jesus but that You rejoice in me with Your song. What a mighty God I serve. Oh, Lord, let everyone who reads this feel Your great delight in them. Make it so!
