His Spirit – Preparation
August 31, 2007
The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
Genesis 1:2His Spirit made the heavens beautiful, and his power pierced the gliding serpent.
Job 26:13It is God who gives us, along with you, the ability to stand firm for Christ. He has commissioned us, And He has identified us as his own by placing the Holy Spirit in our hearts as the first installment of everything He will give us.
2 Corinthians 1:21 & 22Surely it is God’s Spirit within people, the breath of the Almighty within them, that makes them intelligent.
Job 32:8Clearly, you are a letter from Christ prepared by us. It is written not with pen and ink, but the the Spirit of the living God. It is carved not on stone, but on human hearts.
2 Corinthians 3:3And all of us [whoever turns to the Lord] had that veil removed so that we can be mirrors that brightly reflect the glory of the Lord. And as the Spirit of the Lord works within us, we become more and more like Him and reflect His glory even more.
2 Corinthians 3:18God Himself has prepared us for this, and as a guarantee, he has given us His Holy Spirit.
2 Corinthians 5:5
Push ’em Back
August 30, 2007
Only by your power can we push back our enemies; only in your name can we trample our foes.
Psalm 44:5
His Eye Is On The Sparrow
August 29, 2007
His Eye Is On The Sparrow
Why should I feel discouraged
Why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely
And long for heaven and home
When Jesus is my portion
And my constant friend is He
You know His eye is on the lil ole sparrow
Everyday
And I know that he cares for me
His eye is on the lil ole sparrow
And I know He watches over me
I sing because I’m happy
I sing because I’m free
His eye is on the lil ole sparrow
And I know He watches over me
Carved on Human Hearts
August 29, 2007
Clearly, you are a letter from Christ prepared by us. It is written not with pen and ink, but with the Spirit of the living God. It is carved not on stone, but on human hearts.
2 Corinthians 3:3
True Wisdom
August 28, 2007
And this is what he says to all humanity: “The fear of the LORD is true wisdom; to forsake evil is real understanding.”
Job 28:28
I’m God’s Masterpiece
August 24, 2007
Just love this song, Shine by Salvador. Lord, may I be used by you so that I may give your name glory and honor by shining for you!
Here is the video to the song and the words are below:
SHINE (by Salvador)
I woke up to another day
Another day to celebrate
Your beauty and your mystery, it’s more than any eye can see
I’m not the man I was before
With You, my life is so much more
Break the chains and open doors to a world I can’t ignore
Chorus
Lord let me shine, shine like the moon
A reflection of you in all that I do
Lord let me be a light for your truth
Light of the world, I wanna be used to shine for you
As simple as a passing smile
Or listening a little while
To someone that’s convinced that they are in this all alone
Here’s my chance to share the news
To introduce the good that’s you
Here you go again, you never cease to blow my mind
Chorus
You’re the love that we all need
You lift us up to our feet
You hold the key to eternity
The King of Kings alive in me
My Friend…Debbie
August 22, 2007
This verse is for my friend Debbie who reads this blog.
We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance.
Romans 5:3
This song is for you Debbie. I love you.
Again I Say Rejoice
(Chorus)
Rejoice in the Lord always
And again I say, and again I say
Rejoice in the Lord always
And again I say, and again I say
Rejoice
Come bless the Lord, come bless the Lord
Draw near to worship Christ the Lord
And bless His name, His Holy name
Declaring He is good
O that men would praise Him
O that men would praise Him
(Repeat Chorus)
O that men would praise His name
Praise His name to the ends of the earth
And again I say…
(Repeat Chorus)
Rejoice
Rejoice…
I Am Coming…
August 21, 2007
My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.” And my heart responds, “LORD, I am coming.”
Psalm 27:8
Dare You To Move
August 16, 2007
I read quite often the One Year Bible Blog as I go through the bible each year with other believers. Today, Mike placed the following song on the blog (at the very end of his post for the day).
I, like Mike, have VERY wide tastes in Christian Music. I believe that a Christian song can touch the unbeliever – especially when it contains God’s message to a broken world.
Being a rocker at heart, this band, Switchfoot, is awesome. You have to remember that I grew up in the age of Led Zepplin, Billy Squier, Donna Summer….oops — forgot to tell you that I like Disco too! 🙂
Here is the video… (the lyrics are beneath the video):
Dare You To Move
Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone’s here
Everyone’s here
Everybody’s watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next
What happens next
[Chorus]
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before
Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be
[Chorus]
Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened before
