The Scope of Prayer

I cant claim to have written this one, But its amazing.......

 

The scope of prayer
Through prayer there is no problem that can't be solved,
no sickness that can't be healed, no burden that can't be lifted,
no storm that can't be weathered,
no devastation that can't be relieved,
no sorrow that can't be erased,
no poverty cycle that can't be broken,
no sinner that can't be saved,
no perishing that can't be rescued,
no fallen that can't be lifted,
no hurt that can't be removed,
no broken relationship that can't be mended,
no difference that can't be resolved,
no hindrance that can't be shaken,
no limitation that can't be overcome,
no mourning that can't be comforted,
no ashes that can't be that can't become beauty,
no heaviness that can't be covered with the garment of praise,
no thirst that can't be quenched, no hunger that can't be filled,
no dry ground that can't be flooded,
no desert that can't blossom,
no congregation that can't be revived,
no preacher that can't be anointed,
no church pews that can't be filled,
no church leadership team that can't become 'one,'
no community that can't be Christianised and
no nation that can't be transformed.

Yearning

For all those people out there that are waiting and hoping for promises that are yet to be revealed or fully forfilled.

Yearning

A promise given

The spoken words received

Shatter this present day

A new time is coming

Heralded, beckoned in

Summoned from afar

The heart is waiting

The spirit is yearning

The body is anticipating

The mind is expecting

Poised ready for it

For that promise to come

Of more than now

Of better times to come

Keep watching and waiting

It will come one day

Keep yearning and hoping

For it will come someway.

The Great I AM......

Time and time again throughout the Bible. God says I AM the God who saved you,
I AM the God who brought you out of....

Do we as Gods people need reminding of what God has done for us just like God did in the Bible.
Below are some direct quotes from the bible as well as a few additional ones I have included.

I AM your shield
I AM God Almighty
I AM who I AM
I AM God
I AM the Lord your God
I AM the first, and I AM the last
I AM your husband

These others refer to Jesus in the NT
I AM with you always
I AM the bread of life
I AM the light of the world
I AM the gate for the sheep
I AM God's son
I AM the ressurection and the life
I AM the way, truth and the life
I AM the Father and he is in me.

I AM the God who has blessed you
I AM the God who rescued you
I AM the God who has forgiven you

God is worthy to be praised.....
What would God say to you to remind you of what he has done for you?
What would cause you to lift his name and praise him?

Safe in my arms.....

Safe in my arms

I will never leave you

I will never forsake you

I will stay here always

You are safe in my arms

I will carry you

When times are tough

When it’s all too much

You are safe in my arms

I will protect you

Side by side we go

We face things together

You are safe in my arms

I will be everywhere

When you are up, most of all when you are not

When there is on one else to care

You are safe in my arms

I am in you, with you

And around you always

I will never leave you

You are safe in my arms

Forever

I have a plan, a perfect plan

For you and me for all eternity

It’s so exciting, it’s amazing

What you and I could do

Your gave your life to me

And I will use it to the full

Just stay with me

And stick close by

I will see you through

I see you now

You have come so far

Walk with me and talk with me

We have so far yet to go

Don’t look back, no regrets

Just learn and live each day

Open your ears and hear me speak to you

I have a plan, a perfect plan

For you and me for all eternity

It’s so exciting, it’s amazing

What you and I could do

Your Call

I hear your call

I hear your voice

It says draw near to me

Come to me and find rest

I hear your call

I hear your voice

It says stand up and move

Speak to them about me

I hear your call

I hear your voice

It says to love them all

As I have loved you

I hear your call

I hear your voice

It says don’t worry

I am with you

I hear your call

I hear your voice

It says pain will come

Things will be hard

I hear your call

I hear your voice

It says follow me

Do my will today

I hear your call

I hear your voice

It says be my hands

And be my feet

I hear your call

I hear your voice

It says I will speak

To them through you

I hear your call

I hear your voice

Do you obey or turn away?

Expand me

Expand me

Like a balloon, you fill me up

With your spirit, your love

As I grow and get bigger with you

Continue to fill me up till I overflow

Expand my vision

Expand my skills

Expand my heart

Expand my hands

So I can serve you

Like a balloon I grow and grow with you

I give my fear to you, whatever’s next

What can I do

Expand me

Don’t let me pop

just keep expanding me

I live to serve you
