OH CHRISTIAN. WAKE UP!!!!

" Wake up, wake up ! "

Put on the armour today!

Read the word! Fast and pray!

For Satan has desired to sift you like wheat.

He'll shake you and cast you to the winds!

He'll try and destroy your life, your goals and testamony too! "

So hide God's word in your heart!

So that you will not sin against God!

Wake up! Wake up!

Put on the whole armour of God!

( Psalm 27 ) I felt reading this God was speaking about being alert against the on
coming war of the enemy. (Spiritual warfare )

I chose Ps. 32 to meditate on this past week. We are so very miserable when we have sins we have not confessed. They eat away at us, actually causing us to be ill sometimes and ruining our relationships with others as well as our relationship to God.

We need to be quicker to ask forgiveness with the Lord so He may bless us & help us grow. He is our hiding place during these hard times; he is our deliverer, our instructor, our guide and our hiding place. If we are wicked, sorrows will come to us. Rather, if we confess quickly & turn ourselves around, we can be righteous & full of joy. In fact, that joy will abound!! Praise Him!

Reading a Psalm 130 has alsways been the Psalm that I hold on to in the rough times. It has carried me through the valley of death. Oh Jehova I love the not for what you are doing for me but just because you are.......

As I have said before for other Psalms, I have often prayed this Psalm 51 back to God by asking God for His forgiveness for my sins, and His restoration of fellowship with Him once again as I have confessed these sins and have repented from them. I believe that God loves to hear His Word prayed in this fashion spoken back to Him and in doing this, it seems to often bring me closer and more intimate in fellowship, worship and praise with thanksgiving to Him. Since David used the personal pronouns “me” and “my” for himself, it is very easy to read this Psalm as it is written back to God as a personal prayer of confession, faith, and asking His restoration right back to Him as David wrote it, but make it a personal prayer of mine to the Lord.

Psalm 51 is one of my favorite psalms, verse 10-12 are especially comforting when I am experiencing a trial. I dont know about many of you, but when I am experiencing a difficult time, I pray for God's presence and the restoration of my joy. I dont ask God to take away the trial, but to grant me wisdom from the experience. I can bear anything except not feeling God near me or not feeling His presence.

In reading and meditating on these psalms, I praise God for His forgiveness and His mercy and grace that endures. Praise God, that when I sin I can go to Him and ask forgiveness. I can go with a repenant heart and know I am forgiven and I can be restored to the fellowship with my Father.

Well this week was for me a week of reading and mediating on the psalms about forgiveness and just relating it our our life and all that we do against the will of God for our life. This is so amazing to me, because I'm seeing my life as a life of not wanting to do anything but to love the way God love. I'm really hurt with the way many of use say we Love the Lord but we don't love our family are those around us. I have learn to just embrace His Love and spend my days just seeking his face in all that I do. I thank you Lord for such a wondeful change on the inside and out of my life. Thank for cleaning me, and giving me a pure heart a heart of Love for you.
