Oh Lord and My God!
Your Spirit rests upon me. Thank you
for anointing me to preach your love to the poor and brokenhearted. I am
praying for liberty of those captive by Satan’s sway. Use me to lose those that
are bound.
This is the acceptable year of our
Lord.
You are my protection. Your vengeance
is just and swift.
You provide comfort for all who
mourn. You give me beauty for ashes - those things I have created that have
burned up, slipping through my hands. You fill my lamp brimming with joy’s oil.
The lamplight dispels the shadows of mourning into exclamations of your
provision.
I am so weary Lord. This world is
hard on me. The heaviness of this burden is crippling. Yet, you lift it from my
shoulders and replace it with a garment of praise. Glory upon glory!
You have called me a “tree of
righteousness”. Your hand has tilled the soft earth, laying the seed, nurturing
it with growth, and it has sprouted up so that you may be glorified. All glory
and honor is due Your Name!
You allow me to make sense of the
desolation. I rebuild from the old ruins and raise-up from former desolations.
You send others to tend to my needs.
These individuals used by your hand.
You have named me, “priestess”. I am
your humble servant.
You have given me new life! I will glory
in it and others will take notice.
You give me double honor in place of
shame. Clarity, my portion, in the midst of confusion – everlasting joy shall
be mine!
You are a lover of justice. You want
my absolute best, no junk on your altar.
Lord, you lead my hands to do your
work in truth. You have made an everlasting covenant with me. I am the one whom
you have blessed.
I give you praise Lord. I will
rejoice again and again. My soul is joy-filled in You, my God. You have clothed
me in a garment of salvation and sheltered me with a robe of righteousness,
just as a bride adorns herself with jewels and a bridegroom with ornaments.
You cause all things to grow and
flourish. Just as the garden springs forth from the seeds sewn, so you, Oh Lord
God, cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all nations.
Thank you Lord! I worship you.
