It’s all about Jesus. His Word. His Name. His Blood. Jesus. His Holy Spirit. His Father. Now mine. Jesus, the center and the circumference of my life. All life.
Jesus, I take refuge under the shelter of Your wings. My safety and security are in You. My healing is in You. My provision is from You. Every good and perfect gift comes from You. My walk is in You. My joy is in You. I die a thousand times when I cannot sense Your everlasting presence- like some earth walker far removed from the source of all life. Like a baby removed from his mother. Never leave me, my Love. For I cannot bear it.
So I waited for You. Unable to take another step. I waited. Until You once again came to me. And now I am able to breathe again. My heart beats to Your rhythm. For You are the center and circumference of my life.
By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.
So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth,
For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ
But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.
Then they said to Him, “Where is Your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither Me nor My Father. If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also.”
I and My Father are one.”
At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.
I will abide in Your tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of Your wings. Selah
…For I am the Lord who heals you.
Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
1 Kings 8:56-58 The Message
Blessed be God, who has given peace to his people Israel just as he said he’d do. Not one of all those good and wonderful words that he spoke through Moses has misfired. May God, our very own God, continue to be with us just as he was with our ancestors—may he never give up and walk out on us. May he keep us centered and devoted to him, following the life path he has cleared, watching the signposts, walking at the pace and rhythms he laid down for our ancestors.
Psalm 42:1
As the deer pants for the water brooks,
So pants my soul for You, O God.
