A Desert Song
(by Hillsong)

This is my prayer in the desert
And all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in the hunger in me
My God is a God who provides
And this is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
Of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flames
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon forged against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
And this is my prayer in the battle
And triumph is still on it's way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand
All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship
This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've recieved I will sow

Deliverance!!!

After a rejuvenating walk outside on this beautiful day with my sweet friend, I was inclined to share the Lord's faithfulness and goodness and deliverance! He has truly put a new song in my mouth of praise! I have just been reflecting on the Lord's DELIVERANCE! In Psalm 40 it says,
"I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart;
I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation;
I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness"
We are to speak of God's faithfulness and steadfast love and salvation and not hide it in our hearts! Through this many will see Christ and will fear and put their trust in Him! What an awesome command! It makes me just jump with joy when I think of how faithful God has been, is and will be in my own life! He has delivered me from all sin and His love is completely shown through this deliverance as He put His Son on the cross to endure all the punishment we deserve! He is faithful each day to provide all the peace, gentleness, patience, joy and love that I so desperately need! He has put in my heart a passion for the lost, and the lonely. He is faithful to deliver those who truly seek Him! So, in what ways has the Lord shown His faithfulness in your life? Let it be known and share with others what He has done and in that it will bring glory to God, does He not deserve your praise?!! Great is the Lord, the Holy of Holies!!!!
