I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me;

and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God,

who loved me and gave Himself for me.

Galatians 2:20

 

Fresh as a pure mountain stream

is God’s never-ending love for me

 

Fresh as a new flower in Spring

is God’s grace rising within me

 

Fresh as the smell of Summer cut grass

is God’s insurmountable joy through me

 

Fresh as the snow when it first lays down

is God’s abiding presence and peace in me.

Dear Lord, I’m asking for a fresh presence of You in our lives. When we abide in You, and You in us, we can ask anything in Your name, and You will give it (John 15:7). And since we have been crucified with Christ, and Christ lives in us, we can live by faith that You will sustain us and deliver us from anything that is trying to prevail against us.

 

My refrain this week has been, Revive Us Again. Heavenly Father, revive our hearts. Bring us a fresh perspective from You. Give us wisdom and discretion. Lead us in the way we should go.

 

Your presence is so near to me tonight Lord. I love it. I love You. Fill me, fill us, with Your Holy Spirit and set our hearts on fire for You Lord this week.

 

In Jesus’ name I pray, (and all who agree with me),

Amen.

 

From My Heart to Yours,
Marcie 🙂
