love

  • the lukewarm church does not know God's "Love Divine, All Loves Excelling" (Charles Wesley)

    In our series of reflections and prayers about Jesus' words to the seven churches in Asia in Revelation 2 and 3, we're moving on to consider Jesus' words to the Church at Laodicea...

    Revelation 3:15 I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! 16 So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.

    O, Father, a lukewarm church does not know Your love in Christ Jesus...How can we as a church say we know the love of Christ and remain lukewarm?

    Is this not our prevailing sin against You and Your only begotten son, the Lord Jesus Christ today? Is that not our greatest sin against Your Spirit? Do we not grieve, quench and limit Him by our lack of love toward You, by our lukewarmness? Can we say we truly know you? Do we live like we know you? Should our hearts not burn inside us like the disciples on the Emmaus Road who met with Jesus?

    Your words to us are blunt and chilling...

    Revelation 2:4 But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first. 5 Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do the works you did at first. If not, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you repent.

    O, Lord God, we do not want to be spit out of Your mouth! Have mercy on us all! We are close to being spit out. We are close to having You remove our lampstand. We confess we have been lukewarm. Forgive us, O God. We have not know You or Your love. We have coasted. We have taken our salvation for granted. We have become lukewarm. But, O, great God, how can we remain lukewarm if we really know Your love? Your all-surpassing, amazing and extravagant love that sent Jesus Christ to die for us while we were sinners. A love that cost You all, the precious body and blood of Christ. A love that withheld nothing. That kind of love. Not squishy love. Not love that blindly overlooks sin. Not love that saves all. No, You are a holy God. In You there is no sin. You cannot abide sin in Your presence. There is a price to be paid for our sin, a penalty to be borne for our transgressions, so we might be saved from condemnation and eternity in hell. We could not bear our sin. We could not pay that price. We can only be saved by believing on the Lord Jesus Christ. There is no other way of salvation. You provided Him graciously as a sin offering in our place. O, how we have casually tossed Christ and His cross aside for universal love, fuzzy love, a love that says You doesn't really care about sin. How we have shown contempt for the blood of Jesus shed for the remission and forgiveness of sins when we say You are love and could never allow anyone to go to hell.

    Yes, Lord, You are a God of love, You overlook sin but only because Jesus Christ who knew no sin became sin for us so we might become the righteousness of God in Him. His precious blood was shed to atone for the sins of all who believe on Him. O, if we knew Your love, the extent of Your great love for us, how could we not be constrained by You and Your love? If we knew Your love would we not be hot and on fire for You? How could we consider serving any other Master but You, O Lord and Savior Jesus Christ? How could we remain lukewarm? Open our eyes and hearts and minds to all You are! Truth and grace met in Jesus Christ. Your just wrath, the punishment we deserved, was poured out on the spotless Lamb. How can we not see ourselves as debtors to Your mercy alone? How could we not see ourselves as debtors to all men so like the apostle Paul we would be ready to preach the Gospel to as many as You might send us...just as You sent Christ to be an offering for our sin, to seek and save the lost. You send us to as ambassadors of reconciliation, to take good news to men who are captive to sin and held in bondage to the evil one.

    O, yes, we have seen Your glory: grace and truth met in Jesus Christ, Your justice and mercy kissed in His Body on the tree. The just became justifier. You did it all for us. We were powerless and helpless. We were bound up in our sins and transgressions. We were blinded to Your glory. You opened our eyes. O, what love! How can we remain lukewarm? How can we be cold in the face of such Love? O, return us, O Lord, to You, to our first Love. No one loved us like You did. You took us when we were cast out. You found us when our bones were dead and lifeless and breathless. You breathed life into once. Now, O, Lord of life, we ask that You send Your Spirit once more that we might know Your love, that we might breathe deeply of Your Holy Spirit. O, to live by You. That is Your desire. That we might be ignited by Your flaming love in our hearts and souls. Yes, we are too often like the Church at Sardis today, we have a name that we are alive but we are dead. We confess we are not constrained by Your love for us. O, we do not want to remain lukewarm. We do not want to be cold. Set us on fire, Lord, for Your glory! A lukewarm church brings You no glory but only reproach. Forgive us, O God, for being lukewarm. Revive us again!

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't our lips be unloosed in praise?

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't we be dancing before You?

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't streams of living water be bursting out from us?

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't we want the whole world to know Your love?

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't we be praying for laborers to go into the harvest?

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't we be going into the harvest?

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't we be shouting of Your good news of great joy on the housetops?

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't we be bold, no longer paralyzed by fear of men?

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't we we persevere before Your throne of grace and never give You rest?

    If we knew Your love, wouldn't we cry to You day and night to revive us again?

    O, Holy Spirit, rend our hearts, rend the heavens, enrapture us once again with the love we once knew, or perhaps the love we never really knew. Make us hot and on fire. What a disgrace for us to remain lukewarm. O, to know You, to speak to our God like Moses did, face to face. O, Father, the way is now open to the most holy place through the body and blood of Your Son Jesus Christ. The veil has been torn. We can enter into Your presence and meet with You. This is eternal life. Not merely to know about You. We want to know You now. O, let us not remain lukewarm. We have begun to hunger and thirst for more of You. We cannot bear to go up from this place apart from Your presence going with us. O, burn in us, Lord. We must have You now! How can we in the Church carry on apart from a fresh and continuing infusion of Your love and grace, of Your presence and power, of You! Too long we have done Church and forgotten You! We have met in Your name, but not welcomed Your Spirit into our midst. We have gone through the motions. We have all been good Christians. But have we really known You? Have we been filled with all the fullness of God? O, we are seeing we must know You! There is no one under heaven like You! O, that we might know the height and depth and length and breadth of Your love for us in Jesus Christ. That is the life You have intended for us! Have mercy on us, Lord, hear our prayers. We know we deserve nothing but yet we come humbly by the blood of Jesus asking for what is ours as Your beloved children. Our birthright is to know You and to have intimate fellowship with You. To love You. To love You above any and all others. We no longer want to be lukewarm. Make us hot for You!

    You, O Lord, are altogether lovely. You are the Lover of our souls. You loved us before we knew You. O, wondrous love, amazing grace. Such love demands our all. Give us a heart to love You as we ought. You ought be our first Love. We are to have no other gods before You. We confess we have worshiped and lusted after other gods. We have sought earthly treasures. We have sought comfort and convenience. We have tried to be happy but all we end up with is temporary, fleeting happiness, not the deep, abiding and full joy You wish to give us. O, melt our hearts. Circumcise our hearts. Break up the fallow ground. We know our love for you is so small. We want to love you with a passion that exceeds all other passions for Your love is truly divine and excels all other loves. This is the love that Charles Wesley knew. Let us all reflect on his words of worship and adoration below. May Your Spirit cut us to the quick and show us how we have failed to love You as we ought. Turn our hearts back to You, O Father. You have loved us. You have given us all. You wait for us to return home to You once more. O, cords of love, constrain us. Holy Spirit, draw us back. We are all prone to wander. We love You. Increase our love for You, our adoration, our gratefulness for who You and and what You have done for us in Jesus Christ. You are the God who passed over our sins for Jesus' sake. You are the God who was reconciling us to You in Christ before the world began! O, to know Your love divine, all loves excelling...Teach us, O Holy Spirit, and bring glory to the Father and to the Son.

    Love Divine, All Loves Excelling

    (Charles Wesley, 1747)

    Love divine, all loves excelling,
    Joy of heaven to earth come down;
    Fix in us thy humble dwelling;
    All thy faithful mercies crown!
    Jesus, Thou art all compassion,
    Pure unbounded love Thou art;
    Visit us with Thy salvation;
    Enter every trembling heart.

    Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit,
    Into every troubled breast!
    Let us all in Thee inherit;
    Let us find that second rest.
    Take away our bent to sinning;
    Alpha and Omega be;
    End of faith, as its Beginning,
    Set our hearts at liberty.

    Come, Almighty to deliver,
    Let us all Thy life receive;
    Suddenly return and never,
    Never more Thy temples leave.
    Thee we would be always blessing,
    Serve Thee as Thy hosts above,
    Pray and praise Thee without ceasing,
    Glory in Thy perfect love.

    Finish, then, Thy new creation;
    Pure and spotless let us be.
    Let us see Thy great salvation
    Perfectly restored in Thee;
    Changed from glory into glory,
    Till in heaven we take our place,
    Till we cast our crowns before Thee,
    Lost in wonder, love, and praise.

    Holy Spirit, send Your fire once again into our hearts, so we might know You and Your love and might no longer be lukewarm. May we burn with a passion and a fire the devil can never extinguish, so we might go out into the world and take Your message of rescue through Jesus Christ to all those souls who are perishing. Our lamp, our light is flickering and fading. O, God, of light and life and fire, light the fire! Blaze, Spirit, blaze, so we might blaze in the darkened churches and in the dark world! Shine, Jesus, shine in us so we might shine in the darkened churches and in the dark world!

    Please add your prayers for yourself and the Church as the Spirit leads you.


  • Give us grace to welcome the laborers You are sending

    In the past few weeks we have been focusing in prayer on the unity we have in Christ based on the unity of the nation of Israel as they went to battle against the Benjamites (see my posts here, here and here) in Judges 20.

    v. 1 Then all the people of Israel came out ... and the congregation assembled as one man to the LORD...

    v. 8 So all the people arose as one man...

    v. 11 So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, united together as one man.

    We pray to You, O Lord of the harvest, to send more laborers into the harvest.
    Thank You for calling us into the harvest field.
    Give us grace to welcome the laborers You are sending.

    O, Lord of the harvest,

    We have been praying for You to send forth laborers into the harvest for the harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few. We confess sometimes we are hypocritical and judgmental, we pray for workers, but then we do not welcome all whom You send. Let us remember that we do not choose the laborers, You do. It is Your harvest. It is Your work. We are only here because You have chosen and sent us.

    All whom You call to labor in Your harvest and to do Your work, we must welcome.

    May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, 6 that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. 7 Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God.
    –Romans 15:5-7

    Help us to welcome all who come into the harvest field who are seeking Your glory and upholding Your Gospel of grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone: all who are contending for the Gospel and fighting against false gospels of orthodoxy apart from regeneration, moralism, legalism, licentiousness, and a return to the slavery of the law. May we contend alongside one another and never contend with one another so we might with one voice glorify You, O God, Lord of the harvest.

    By grace through faith You have birthed us into one Body by one Spirit:

    I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, 3 eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

    4 There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call—    5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
    –Ephesians 4:1-6

    By Your grace at work in us, may we walk worthy of the calling to which we have been called.
    By Your grace at work in us, may we walk with humility.
    By Your grace at work in us, may we walk with gentleness.
    By Your grace at work in us, may we walk with patience.
    By Your grace at work in us, may we bear with one another in love.
    By Your grace at work in us, make us eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
    For there is one body and one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and one Father of all.

    After Paul writes about our unity in You, Lord Jesus Christ, He also reminds us You have given us each of us gifts as You have willed. You have gifted us differently, yet we are one Body. May we work together and allow one another to use our gifts to the furtherance of the Gospel and for Your glory. Knit us together so we might be one – one heart and mind with You and with one another. Help us to continue to encourage and edify one another to use our gifts to Your glory. In that way we are endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace and we will with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ as we go into the harvest field and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth.

    We pray to You, O Lord of the harvest, to send more laborers into the harvest.
    Thank You for calling us into the harvest field.
    Give us grace to welcome the laborers You are sending.

    O, Lord of the harvest, when we do not welcome someone whom You are calling to labor in the harvest field, we are in danger of blaspheming Your Holy Spirit:

    Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters. 31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. 32 And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.
    –Matthew 12:30-32

    Help us to be discerning, yes, yet help us to be welcoming of all whom You have called and are calling and all You have anointed and are sending to labor into the harvest fields. O, we know the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few, therefore...

    We pray to You, O Lord of the harvest, to send more laborers into the harvest.
    Thank You for calling us into the harvest field.
    Give us grace to welcome the laborers You are sending.

    O, Lord of the harvest, let us not forget Jesus' solemn words of warning to us:

    Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, 6 but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.
    –Matthew 18:5-6

    O, Lord of the harvest, give us grace to receive all who believe in you. May we not cause any one of these little ones to sin or to stumble.

    We pray to You, O Lord of the harvest, to send more laborers into the harvest.
    Thank You for calling us into the harvest field.
    Give us grace to welcome the laborers You are sending.

    O, Lord of the harvest, forgive us when we look down at youth and inexperience. Let us remember anything we have we have received from You. We have no reason to boast as we labor for You. You chose us not because of anything in us. In fact, You choose not many who are wise or powerful for Your foolishness is wiser than men and Your weakness is stronger than men. When we see a David ready to battle Goliath, let us not discourage him, but encourage Him to be strong in Lord. Let us not be like David's brothers, the other soldiers or Saul, all of whom doubted David's calling from You to go into battle, but instead let us bless those You have sent out as they go in Your Name to battle all who defy You so Your Name, Your glory and Your honor might be upheld.

    Now Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spoke to the men. And Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why have you come down? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your presumption and the evil of your heart, for you have come down to see the battle.
    29 And David said, What have I done now? Was it not but a word?
    30 And he turned away from him toward another, and spoke in the same way, and the people answered him again as before.

    31 When the words that David spoke were heard, they repeated them before Saul, and he sent for him.
    32 And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him. Your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.
    33 And Saul said to David, You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him, for you are but a youth, and he has been a man of war from his youth.
    34 But David said to Saul, Your servant used to keep sheep for his father. And when there came a lion, or a bear, and took a lamb from the flock, 35 I went after him and struck him and delivered it out of his mouth. And if he arose against me, I caught him by his beard and struck him and killed him. 36 Your servant has struck down both lions and bears, and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be like one of them, for he has defied the armies of the living God. 37 And David said, The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David, Go, and the LORD be with you!
    –I Samuel 17:28-37

    O, Lord God, we all need such sure, steadfast and confident faith like David had. We must have a zeal for the Your honor and be grieved when Your Name and Your Church suffers reproach. You, O Lord, who delivered us from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of Your Son, will you not be with us as we go into battle in the harvest field? May we not try to make others wear the armor You have fitted for us. All they need do is to wear Your whole armor as they go into battle. You have called each of us differently. You will equip each of us all differently. But we all know this thing: we are all Yours in one Body, standing together for one Gospel and that the battle is Yours, O Lord, and You will never leave us or forsake. Our labor in You is not in vain, even though we may suffer loss here on the earth.

    We pray to You, O Lord of the harvest, to send more laborers into the harvest.
    Thank You for calling us into the harvest field.
    Give us grace to welcome the laborers You are sending.

    Please add your prayers below as the Holy Spirit leads you...

  • a prayer for whole-hearted & pure worship (Psalm 138)

    As we've been reading, reflecting and praying over Revelation 1-3, when I read Psalm 138 and saw the purity of David's worship there I was reminded of the purity Jesus desires in the Church.

    Ephesus: Pure Unreserved Love.
    Smyrna: Pure Persevering Faith.
    Pergamos: Pure Doctrine and Practice.
    Thyatira: Pure Uncompromising Teaching.
    Sardis: Pure Lively Religion.
    Philadelphia: Pure Perseverance.
    Laodicea: Pure Flaming Devotion.

    Jesus was coming into the midst the seven churches and giving them both commendations and corrections. He had come to evaluate their worship of Him. Was their worship of Him pure? And He is coming to us today and asking us the same question: Is our worship of Him pure?

    In Psalm 138 as we see purity of worship modeled for us, we also see God's faithfulness to keep and uphold His chosen people, to make us holy as He is holy. As He is faithful to us, may we continue to be faithful to Him and offer Him the pure worship He desires and deserves for He alone is our God.

    I've adapted Psalm 138 into a prayer we as the Church could pray together.

    Holy Jesus, spotless Lamb of God, our Sanctifier,

    We praise You, our Savior, for You have come to save us from our sins. The Father provided You as an atoning sacrifice on the cross for us. Your blood was shed so our sins might be forgiven. You took the punishment we deserved, so we now have peace with God. We can call "Abba, Father," to Your Father because by faith Your Father has become our Father. Amen. And when we do sin we need not fear condemnation for Your blood covers all our sin so when we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. You became sin for us so we might become the righteousness of God. Your righteousness is credited to us, counted to our account, so You no longer see our sin! How wonderful. But You have also given us Your righteous nature. Your Holy Spirit has come to dwell in us to make us holy and to make us pure. You are not only our Justifier, but You are also our Sanctifier.

    Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me, and on turning I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, clothed with a long robe and with a golden sash around his chest. 14 The hairs of his head were white like wool, as white as snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire, 15 his feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters. 16 In his right hand he held seven stars, from his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword, and his face was like the sun shining in full strength. 17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, Fear not, I am the first and the last, 18 and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades.
    –Revelation 1:12-18

    We see how You appeared to John in his vision. John fell at Your feet as though dead. He saw Your holiness, well some of Your holiness, for He could not have lived if He had seen all of Your holiness.

    Because You are a holy God, You cannot endure sin in Your presence. Through Your Holy Spirit, be merciful and kind to us, show us our sin. Show us where us our worship of You is impure. Show us where we are not walking before You with our whole heart. And then through Your Holy Spirit, give us the desire and the power to purify ourselves, so we might worship You and walk with You in purity, with our whole heart.

    May we use David's prayer to help us focus on Your purity and on the purity of worship You desire of each of us and of Your Church. You alone are our God and we ought to be worshiping You with our whole heart. Continue to purify us, O Lord, and perfect that which concerns us. Make us holy as You are holy. May we worship You with our whole heart and nothing less. Do not forsake us. Do not forsake Your Church, but complete the work You have begun in us so we might be a praise in the earth and shine brightly in the world so we might bring glory to You, our wonderful Savior and Redeemer.

    We give you thanks, O Lord, with our whole heart

    God forbid that we ever give thanks to any other god!
    Keep us giving thanks to You alone, O Lord, with our whole heart,
    May we never come to You with half-hearted worship
    For You alone are our God!

    before the gods we will sing Your praise

    God forbid we ever sing the praise of other gods!
    Other gods do call us to praise them,
    Keep us singing Your praise always
    For You alone are our God!

    We bow down toward your holy temple

    God forbid we ever bow down toward any other temple or any other god!
    You alone are God and You alone are holy.
    May we worship You with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind and all our strength,
    Keep us bowing down toward You and Your holy temple alone.
    For You alone are our God!

    and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness,
    for you have exalted above all things
    your name and your word.

    God forbid we give thanks to any other name but Your holy Name!
    God forbid we exalt anything or anyone above Your Name and Your Word!
    Keep us exalting You, Your Name and Your Word above all things
    For You alone are our God!

    On the day we called, You answered us;
    our strength of soul You increased.

    God forbid we call on anyone or anything else!
    There is no other God but you.
    Other gods cannot answer our calls.
    You alone are our Strength.
    You alone will increase our strength when we are weak.
    There is no true strength apart from You.
    Keep us seeking strength from You alone, keep us calling on You alone
    On the day we call, You will answer us
    For You alone are our God!

    All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O Lord,
    for they have heard the words of Your mouth
    and they shall sing of the ways of the Lord,
    for great is the glory of the Lord.

    God forbid we make ourselves kings!
    God forbid we worship earthly kings!
    One Day the knees of every earthly king will bow to You and sing and give thanks to You.
    Your glory is greater than all the glory of all the earthly kings combined.
    God forbid we never glory in any other king but give you, O King of kings, all glory
    For great is the glory of the Lord
    For great is Your glory, O Lord
    For You alone are our God!

    For though the Lord is high, He regards the lowly,
    but the haughty He knows from afar.

    God forbid we remain haughty and proud!
    Humble us, O Lord, bring us down to our knees.
    Most High God, You are seated high in the heavens and the earth is Your footstool
    Yet You come to dwell with those who have humble, lowly and contrite hearts.
    You look upon the one who is poor and trembles at Your word.
    God forbid we refuse to bend our necks and bow our knees to You!
    Humble Your Church, O God,
    Have mercy upon us and look upon us,
    We are poor and needy,
    Come dwell with us once more in power.
    For You alone are our God!


    Though we walk in the midst of trouble,
    You preserve our life;
    You stretch out Your hand against the wrath of our enemies,
    and your right hand delivers Your Church.

    O Lord God, we are walking in the midst of trouble today.
    We are Your chosen people.
    You have set Your love on us and loved us with an everlasting love.
    Nothing can separate us from Your love for us in Christ Jesus.
    Preserve us. There are temptations from within and from without Your Body.
    Yes, we praise You, O God, for we know You will preserve our life because You are our Life!
    You will never forsake Your own children.
    Stretch out Your hand against the wrath of our enemies, for our enemies are Your enemies.
    We have no power to fight this battle. This battle is Yours, O Lord.
    O God, may Your right hand deliver us.
    In and of ourselves we are powerless and helpless to deliver ourselves.
    Help us to wear the armor and to use the weapons You have provided for this warfare.
    Help us not to resort to fighting by our own might or power but by Your Spirit,
    Help us stand strong in the grace You have provided,
    For You alone are our God!

    The Lord will fulfill His purpose for His Church;
    Your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.
    Do not forsake the work of Your hands.

    O Lord, You will fulfill Your purpose for Your Church.
    Certainly You will.
    O Lord, Your steadfast love to us endures forever.
    You have promised to never leave us or forsake us.
    Do not forsake the work of Your hands,
    We are the work of Your hands.
    You have birthed us into Your Kingdom family.
    You are the author and finisher of our faith.
    You will complete the work You have begun in us.
    For You alone are our God!

    Please add your prayers here for yourself and the Church as His Holy Spirit leads you.

tent_of_meeting

"he called it the tent of meeting..."

I am burdened to pray to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ for the reformation and reviving of Christ's church.

The phrase tent of meeting comes from Exodus 33:7: Now Moses used to take the tent and pitch it outside the camp, far off from the camp, and he called it the tent of meeting. And everyone who sought the Lord would go out to the tent of meeting, which was outside the camp.

This site is devoted to God first and foremost. In all that is done here, my prayer is that God is glorified and His Name magnified and Christ and Him crucified is lifted up so He might be preeminent and God might receive all the praise, honor and glory due His Holy Name. All who have come to a saving knowledge of our Father by grace through faith in the all-sufficient sacrifice of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ are welcome to enter this tent of meeting to seek the Lord.

This blog is a place for all believers in the Lord Jesus Christ to come and seek God's face for revival. My intention is for this tent of meeting to be a holy place where we can enter into PRAYER together to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, as the Holy Spirit leads you, please enter into prayer either here (think of "comments" as prayers) or on your own.

Habakkuk 3:2 O LORD, I have heard the report of you, and your work, O LORD, do I fear. In the midst of the years revive it; in the midst of the years make it known; in wrath remember mercy.
