Checking into God’s Presence... Seeking God’s approval, not men. “The Lord is my strength and song, and is become my salvation. The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly. The right hand of the Lord is exalted: the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.” (Psalm 118:14-17. David declared in Psalm 118: 8-9 that “it is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man. It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.” We trust in You Oh Lord our God and truly we have never paid homage to any lesser god; therefore and if indeed Thy reign has been from everlasting to everlasting: When we call upon Thee in distress, answer and set us in a large place. Be on our side so we do not fear what man can do unto us? Keep, guide, strengthen and help us so much so we can begin to enjoy Your overflowing grace. For our sake, fulfil Your desire upon those that hate us and have sworn to use any means to bring us down. We declare today; we shall not die, but live and declare the works of Thy Hand. Do not allow our sins to surrender us to any pangs of death, hues and cries, fear, doubts, illness, unemployment and hatred of any kind. With Your right Hand, turn every shameful episode in our lives around, let us begin to rejoice and be glad in every of our pursuits. Through us, let the people believe and say that Your mercy endureth for ever. That “the Lord is our strength and song, and is become our salvation”. You are the Lord, “which hath shewed us light” we beseech You to “bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.” Give us the enablement to declare that “Thou art our God, and we will praise thee: Thou art our God, we will exalt thee. Make us the chief head stone of the corner and make all those who had made jests of us to shout-“this is the Lord's doing”. Let our stories be marvellous in people’s eyes and let every day be considered as “This is the day which the Lord hath made”. Save now, we beseech thee, O Lord: O Lord, we beseech thee, send now prosperity”, peace, mercy, victory and do allow Your enlightenment to govern us from now on in Jesus name. Amen (Psalm 118:24-25) Just Checking into His Presence...
