Quiet Time With The Lord | A Blessed Prayer To Start Your Day

psalm 46 verse 10 be still and know that I am god I will be exalted among the nations I will be exalted in the earth there is something about being still and I think this verse calls us to be still before the

lord

because we need to direct all our attention, all our focus in the

lord

and if you really think about it, when the bible says be still and know that I am god, it is actually telling you to stop doing everything you are doing, stop worrying, stop fighting, stop resisting and

start

s. yield to god begin to listen to god you will see when you spend

time

getting to know the lord when you spend

time

in the presence of jesus christ you will truly be transformed and I encourage you to desire and hunger for these types of rich encounters in the presence of God because it is only in those Intimate one-on-one encounters allow each of us to gain a personal revelation of who God really is.

It is only in those intimate one-on-one encounters that each of us can be empowered and filled with courage. the courage to face the world and defend christ the courage to face the devil and declare that jesus christ is lord the prophet isaiah received a revelation that should inspire us all to recognize god for who he really is listen carefully to what isaiah 45 verses 2 to 7 it says: I will go before you and straighten the crooked places. I will break the gates of bronze and cut off the bars of iron. I will give you the treasures of darkness and the hidden riches of the secret places so that you may know that I the Lord who called you by

your

name am the god of Israel for the sake of my servant Jacob and Israel my chosen one I have even called you by

your

name I have named you although you have not known me I am the lord and there is no other there is no god besides me I will gird you although you have not known me so that you may know from sunrise to sunset that there is no one besides me I I am the Lord and there is no other I form light and create darkness I make peace and create calamity I the Lord do all these things this is a wonderful revelation of who God is God is firmly in control God is omniscient God is almighty Isaiah 45 22 -23 says look at me and know that I have saved all the ends of the earth because I am god and there is no other I have sworn by myself the word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness and will not return that before me every knee will bow every tongue will take an oath in those moments when we are still before god we must realize how powerful god is how powerful god is the bible tells us that there is nothing and no one who can be compared to god we must remember this, nothing and no one is worthy of competing for the number one position of your heart, God should be first now let us pray dear lord, I worship you because you are the god who makes crooked places straight, you are the god who can move mountains and you certainly deserve all the honor and praise, lord.

Your word says in Isaiah 45 22 to 22-23 look at me and be saved all the ends of the earth because I am God and there is no other I have sworn by myself the word has gone out of my mouth and justice and does not return that before me every knee will bow every tongue will take an oath I am looking at you king Jesus I am looking at you to transform my life I am looking at you king Jesus to save my soul I am looking at you Lord as my redeemer and messiah there is no one like you father no one can compare with you help us to be still and know that only you are god help us to have the sacred commitment to spend time alone with you make it a daily desire that we seek to spend time alone in your presence holy spirit I ask you to help me make
