Great and Mighty Things

 

 

“Thus says the LORD who made the earth, the LORD who formed it to establish it, the LORD is His name, ‘Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’” 

—Jeremiah 33:2-3 (NASB)

 

 

 

 

O LORD of All Creation,

 

How wonderfully amazing it is that You—the One who made the earth and everything in it, who formed it and established it by Your Word—would not only invite me to call to You, but would promise to answer me and tell me great and unsearchable things that I do not know!

 

May I forever remain in reverent fear and overwhelming awe of Your power and majesty—as You continue to surround me with the glories of Your creation and reveal to me the intricacies of the order by which You alone have established all things.

 

Through Your unfailing love for me, teach me to know more perfectly Your will and Your ways—so that my will would be conformed to Yours, and so my prayers would be offered up in harmony with Your will, Your plans, and Your purposes for me. 

 

Grant me the courage to call out boldly to you with prayers of faith.  And help me to believe that You always hear and will answer my call—and that You will reveal to me great things that I cannot discover within my own intellect or power.

 

How wonderfully amazing it is that You—the One who made the earth and everything in it, who formed it and established it by Your Word—would not only invite me to call to You, but would promise to answer me and tell me great and unsearchable things that I do not know!

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Thus Says the LORD!

It is Good to Wait Quietly

The LORD is good to those who depend on him,
    to those who search for him.
So it is good to wait quietly
    for salvation from the LORD.

—Lamentations 3:25-26 (NLT)

Good and Loving LORD,

Thank You for being so faithful to show me Your goodness in those times that I have depended on You the most—and help me today to trust You completely, to seek after You continuously and to quietly wait for Your salvation.

Help me remember all the ways that have You poured out Your goodness on me in the past—and how, because of Your goodness, You have either delivered me out of each distressing circumstance in which I found myself, or sustained me in the midst of it, in order to deliver me through it.

           

Help me seek to make more room for You in my life, as I simply talk with You throughout this day—through my heartfelt prayers and my loving worship of You—and as, within the peace of my stillness, I listen for the quiet whisper of Your Voice.

Help me not to be anxious about those things that I don’t have—and may never have—all figured out.  Remind me to keep my peace, by remembering that You are my hope and You will provide for me, protect me, and save me—because You are my LORD.

Thank You for being so faithful to show me Your goodness in those times that I have depended on You the most—and help me today to trust You completely, to seek after You continuously and to quietly wait for Your salvation.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
