17 The LORD your God in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing." NKJV
When God saved us, sending Jesus for our sins, He came to abide in our midst, and to be on the scene!
He became engaged in our lives, to make us a part of the family.
God, the Mighty One, wanted to get involved with us............Hallelujah!
Do we notice Him throughout our day? Do we "see" Him moving on our behalf? God did not just do "a one time thing" for us, He came to spend every day with us. I, too, must remember to invite Him in each day. "Come Holy Spirit, and have your way in my life and home today!" For if we invite Him to be there, He is engaged in our every moment of living. But if I disregard Him, and have no intent of inviting Him in, then I am the one who loses out!
God came to save us, yes, but He also came to be a part of our lives. He came to participate with us. But do we take Him for granted? Who would not like to be participating with God?
God the Holy Spirit can take us through each moment of our day showing us with the "light of His word" what is wrong, what is out of place, and what needs correction. Seriously, I do not want to keep doing the same 'ole thing, if it is not productive, and is a total waste of my time.
God is the "perfect Father (Matthew 5:48) that loves us with perfect love (1 John 4:18). God our Father, had an unrelenting pursuit of us. My desire is that we would have hearts that passionately pursue our Father God and that others would know we have a passion to be with Him and know Him like we should, as a Father knows His child, and the child Knows the Father!
He will rejoice over you with gladness.........He rejoices over us......with gladness........with blessedness, with bliss, but it also means a triumph..........a victory!
He quiets us with His love.......a quietness, but strength! God is the Adonai, Jehovah, the completely Self-Existing One, always present, revealed in Jesus. God our Victory, our Standard. For His banner over us is LOVE.
The same God who created the heavens and the earth....Elohim, is the Most High God, the Everlasting God, the Great God, and He rejoices over us who are the saved, the Redeemed.
Allow Him, the Holy Spirit to come and quiet you with His love today and allow Him to let you hear the song He sings over you!
Father, in Jesus name, we understand prayer not be a religious form, but praying YOUR word brings power into our lives. For the Word that YOU Speak GOD is alive and full of power---making it active, operative, energizing; it is sharper than any two-edged, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [that is, of the deepest parts of our nature] exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart. (Hebrews 1:12 amp)
We truly ask YOU into every situation, every part of our lives today and seek to be quieted by Your love. You have given us the victory through Your Son and we stand as sons in Your kingdom. Lord show us the way we are to walk today, guide us through Your truth and to let go of that which causes us time and money we could be devoting to YOU and Your kingdom. We thank You for that perfect love of which You have loved us and we ask You to burn a passion in our hearts so others will know that our God, our Father, is our passion, our delight! We are thankful for the Standard that is raised today and we will fear no evil for our God is with us, He is in our midst. Thank You Lord for hearing and we set our hearts to be thankful everyday for YOUR goodness to us in the land of the living. Amen

This pretty much sums up where I hope to go in 2015. I want to be perfectly in step with God.
ReplyDeleteThat scripture is such a refreshing change from the old religious notion that we have to beat on God's door to get his attention. He's already singing and dancing over us!
Thanks Kyall.......people need to know that God is good all the time.........when we truly seek Him and Know Him, we can know that is singing over us because of His love for us
