God, the inventor of mercy

i'm thankful my Father forgives me and has patience with me. the heart is a place of great love and evil things. so quick to fail yet so eager to be strengthened. i am so in need of the patience, grace, and mercy of Jesus. i fail time and time again and slander and gossip and hold bitterness. but the Lord pulls me out of the pit. He saves me and rescues me from the evil that tries to kill me and convince me that He doesn't love me. i am thankful for who God is. He is light (1 john). He is pure light. and Hallelujah! the truth is He loves me. You love me. when men hate me You love me. when i sin He is merciful and compassionate and loving enough to correct me and not leave me in my current place to die. when man can't forgive me and his patience has run out the Lord is still standing with arms wide open to me. I am thankful for who You are, God. my heart is refreshed when i'm reminded of Your love and the intimacy You desire with me.

"And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, 'The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin..."
-exodus 33:6-7

what can wash away my sins? NOTHING but the blood of Jesus!

i have been bought with a price. i have been made a son of God by God Himself! i have victory! God is my Father! Jesus is my Brother! the Holy Spirit is my Friend! Hallelujah. the blood of Jesus has bought me and made me His beloved! how i love my King, my Savior! Jesus is King! not the devil, BUT Jesus!

lately it has been accented to me the idea of Jesus dancing with His bride; of Him having that first dance with His bride. there IS going to be a wedding where we marry our King. Hallelujah! Our King is greater. Amen.

complete communion requires a heart that says YES to ANYTHING the Lord wants to do

The moment you surrender to the Lord, He will fill you with His Spirit. You don't need to beg for the infilling. And it doesn't require a bucket of tears. All it takes is a total surrender to Christ and a willingnes to embrace His precious Holy Spirit.
Total surrender brings total infilling, and total submission brings total fellowship. But just as in marriage, you've got to work at it every day: "Jesus, I love You"; "Father God, I adore You"; "precious Holy Spirit, I long for Your fellowship." If you neglect communicating just one day, the next time it's a little harder.
-Benny Hinn (Good Morning, Holy Spirit)

Jesus, You are my joy!
You're worth it
You're worth it ALL

Your kingdom come. Your will be done

i'm in awe of the provisions of my Father. i don't think i have ever been given so much from others and given so many things for free in my whole life. i'm doing my best to seek first His kingdom. He loves us, His children. we are co-heirs with Christ of the kingdom of God. all is His. pour out Your Spirit on the earth Lord! come Jesus.

You never leave me. You redeem the dead. Come Jesus. Amen

And God said, "I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain."
-Exodus 3:12

the sign that He was with Moses came after. meanwhile He was always with him. we will get to the point of worship not even knowing how we got there if when we keep our eyes fixed on Jesus. give me strength to endure Jesus. that You that You're my helper Holy Spirit
