A Word From Brenda
Daniel 7v.9,10:
I beheld till the thrones were
cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose
garment as white as snow, and the hair of his head
like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery
flame, and his wheels as burning fire.
A fiery
stream issued and came forth from before him:
thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten
thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the
judgment was set, and the books were
opened.
Daniel 7v.13,14:
I saw in the
night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man
came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the
Ancient of days, and they brought him near before
him.
And there was given him dominion, and glory,
and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and
languages, should serve him: his dominion is an
everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and
his kingdom that which shall not be
destroyed.
I Can't Praise Him Enough!!
I was speaking at the rest home about two weeks ago, when I overheard a conversation with two of our patients there. Clara was saying, "I just can't praise Him enough... He is so good to me, I just can't praise Him enough!" Then Gertha replied..."I know, but He understands." They weren't just saying it, like "oh Hallelujah," or "well praise God!!" Clara was very serious, and was trying to explain, that she honestly could not give the Lord the amount of Praise worthy of His name. She had tried, and Gertha had tried. Both came to the conclusion that they could not, but would continue to speak about His goodness and praise His Holy name, almost continuously. What an honor to minister to these faithful servants of the Lord. Each one could have volumes written on the trials, testings and great victories they have seen over the years. Gertha just turned 102, and has prayed for Mike and I on more than one occasion. Clara, in her 90's, is new to our group, but has brought such a sense of worship to the services. I am truly the one that is blessed at the end of the day, by their continuing faith and attitude of Praise!!
Psalms 113 v.1-3
Praise the Lord! Praise, O servants of the Lord, Praise the name of the Lord! Blessed be the name of the Lord From this time forth and forevermore! From the rising of the sun to its going down, The Lord's name is to be praised. I heard a story on the 700 club this week about a teenage girl who had battled with anorexia. After a hospital stay and months of prayer from her parents and friends, something clicked. She determined that she had had enough. Enough of satan attacking her, enough of being told you "will be anorexic forever," enough of starving herself to death. She took a CD of a praise and worship tape upstairs to her room and shut the door. As she began to sing, and dance before the Lord...calling out scriptures and offering up Praise's to Jesus, she felt a heavy load lifted off her back. She knew that she had been made free. She continued to praise God, singing and dancing alone in her room, when she saw a bright light, and felt the presence of the Lord Jesus their with her. What an awesome testimony!!! All of this, from a 15 year old girl. Gods presence touches our hearts, breaks bondages and lifts off the weights of sin and depression. Praise God! When I can't think of anything to say, to enter into an attitude of Praise, I just begin to thank Him. "I thank You Lord, for Your goodness in my life. I can't Praise You enough, Lord, you are so good to me, You've always been so good."
There is no battle to intense, no storm to great, no sickness that is stronger or situation too hopeless for the Lord Our God. Lift up your hearts in Praise to His name, begin to thank Him for the goodness He has brought into your life, and watch the enemy begin to flee!!
Psalm 105 v.1-6
Oh, give thanks to the Lord! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples!,
Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him; Talk of all His wondrous works!
Glory in His holy name; Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!
Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore!
Remember His marvelous works which He has done, His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth,
O seed of Abraham His servant, You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!!
Amen
