Beyond Words
Be exalted God above the heavens. Psalm 57:5
Language is a science and an art. It is as a gift from the Lord to communicate and is very helpful and yet as you praise and lift Jesus, it is like beyond words, as your spirit is alight with His Presence, not worldly only with purity.
Thankyou Jesus, praises to you, your effortless life eclipses what I can articulate, you are my all. Fill my life with your Spirit for there I am as light as a feather.
The Lord that loves you
Psalm 11:7
For the Lord is righteous.
This verse was a stand out as I read Psalms recently. If there is something lovely to lift your spirits, what can a while of conscious thought of God’s character do to cause a positive day’s start. You are right with God by the cross of Jesus that stands for you. Parallel to this is every choice you make to live right with Jesus, you are aligned with what God loves. It’s not all about what I can do to be right with Him, yet your very life can give Him worship.
Thanks Jesus, you are such a wonder. I praise you for you. Thanks for your love.
Such purpose to wait
I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and with hope I wait for his word. Psalm 130:5
What is your source. The psalmist waits for the Lord, for His Word with hope. So precious is His voice. There is purpose to wait to listen for God.
Thankyou Lord Jesus for who you are, today I wait for you, for your Word with hope, for you are my hope Lord Jesus.
Always there
The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield. Psalms 18:2
Jesus, who I search for every day although God is always there, it is such a mystery, prayer. God is that place of safety, like a fort and our God who delivers.
Thankyou Jesus, your love and comfort is always there.
Creatively Created
I praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm 139:14
Every person is so creatively created that praise is the response to God.
Thankyou Jesus, all your creativity is praiseworthy.
People lead to Jesus
He will not grow dim or be crushed, until he has established justice on the earth, and in his name the coastlands will hope. Isaiah 42:4
Your might and comfort is from God. You can hope that Jesus will be true, faithfully to move by the Holy Spirit to cause people to be lead to Jesus.
Thankyou Jesus, I trust you for you to lead my life by your truth and faithful love, lead me to green pastures and beside quiet waters. Praying people will be lead to Jesus.
Loss is never the end
After Job had prayed for his friends Job 42:10
Loss is never the end. After Job had so much loss, praying for his friends caused breakthrough. God has a way of buying back what you lost spiritually, as you pray for people.
Thankyou Jesus, loyalty for you is first priority whatever the landscape. Praying for people for your tranquil peace and mercy to cover us.
Faith based
He grants peace to your borders Psalm 147:14
Every promise of the Bible is for us for praying. For whatever you need, help from heaven is our prayer, as it is with our faith that our life is based with His Word.

God leads us
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:57
God leads us to peace, love, joyfulness to have faith through Jesus. What a great day to serve and be praying for all. His victory is out by the cross. That’s what is the time, to give our life afresh to put Jesus first. (Thoughts from You Led me to the Cross- by Matt Redman)
Thankyou Jesus, you are my everything. Every road leads back to the cross, praise to you Jesus.
Through our Lord Jesus
Consequently, there is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who are not walking according the flesh, but after the Spirit. Romans 8:1
To follow Jesus is to be saved, the most precious of all, the gift of peace with God, through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Jesus is the cause and the effect is eternity with Him.
Praise to you Jesus, your life has meant our peace.
Hope floats
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God. Psalm 42:11
There are days you praise cause there is so many wonderful reasons, there are also days you praise Jesus despite and then days with both positives and negatives. Whatever the day praise is our response! That is our default.
Thankyou Jesus, you are my constant delight. Praise you today and every day.
Praise God
In God, whose word I praise—in God I trust. Psalm 56:4
David put his hope towards God. The place you find delight with Jesus is what forms your life. As you praise God and trust Jesus for what is oft every day moments, you have space for that capacity you need for all that you love through Jesus. Perfection is just an illusion but progress is possible and that’s what journals or goals can do to help you track your life with Jesus.
Thankyou Jesus, I praise you for you Lord. You are my hope, I trust you and your word.
Jesus light for life
You, Lord, are the light that keeps me safe. I am not afraid of anyone. You protect me, and I have no fears. Psalm 27:1
Jesus’ light protects us, by Him is our path secure and life can be free of fears. A time of praise and worship is as sunlight that fills the place. Our arms raised to Jesus, the Holy Spirit ushers His Presence to fill our spirit with His life, as the first light of a day.
Thankyou Jesus, you cause songs of praise to rise up for your light.
Shepherd
Psalms 23:1 The Lord is my shepherd I have everything I need.
There isn’t lack with Jesus, for His life has all you need. The psalmist relates to God as complete cared for and lead by Him. That is what a relationship with Jesus is, it is holistic.
Thankyou Jesus, lead my life by your wisdom and grace as I serve you.
Upward Path
The path of life leads upward for the wise. Proverbs 15:24
Thank God for Jesus. With Jesus is the wisdom for that apt reply or whatever it is. Said of the Holy Spirit is that His guidance leads us to truth, with balance.
Thankyou Jesus, I trust you, lead my life by your truth.
The Lord is Peace
The Lord is Peace. Judges 6:24
These days people might not build altars to God as they used to but you can with worship and prayer. Today I am thankful for peace, that Jesus has heard prayers and was faithful to answer my prayers at His time.
Thankyou Jesus for your peace, that you answer prayers means a lot.
Steadfast Love of Jesus
Your steadfast love, Lord Psalm 36:5
His love that never fails is for every believer. If I will just wait for a minute, wait for His voice, it is a comfort and so many times tells of His love. What a God of love is our Saviour.

Gracious Friendships

Thankyou Jesus for healthy and wholesome friendships that build faith and courage. Show the ways I can help be a great part also.
