Day 9 in prayer room - October 26, 2010

Considering current events concerning the landlord and Onething's direction, today's prayer focus is for wisdom and revelation of God's will.

We are not peripheral to the world but the world is peripheral to us.

We declare that You, Lord are Lord of this (Onething) land. This house of prayer and all the assemblies in it are yours - you have ownership of us, God! We are your treasured possessions! Father, I praise You that You give righteous decrees and that we agree with you - let your will be done!! We are flexible and open to you, Lord! If you desire us as your tabernacle to be mobile in this season, we will go where you go! If you desire that we stand firm on this land you've given us for this time, we will be faithful!

Where are You dwelling, Oh God Most High? This is where we want to be!

If everything You say and do is to draw us closer to you, then we embrace whatever path you choose for us to take. But Lord we desire understanding and wisdom which you told us to ask for. Holy Spirit, I pray that you would reveal your direction to Ed and AnnMarie, that they may continue to serve you in excellence!

Psalm 42:10 - As with a sword crushing my bones, my enemies taunt and reproach me, while they say continually to me, 'Where is your God?'

Oh that the cry of this landlords heart is "Where is your God? Show me God!" Lord, reveal yourself through us to this man!

Psalm 43

Judge and vindicate me, O God; plead and defend my cause against an ungodly nation. O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man!

For you are the God of my strength - my stronghold in whom I take refuge; why have you cast me off? Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

O send out your light and your truth, let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling.

Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my exceeding joy; yes, with the lyre I will praise you, O God, my God!

...Hope in God and wait expectantly for Him for I shall yet praise Him who is the help of my countenance and my God.


Reminded of a song by Eddie James:

My praise is a weapon
It's a declaration
Our God is King
He can do anything
Our praise is a weapon
It's a declaration
That if God be for me
Tell me who can be against me

No weapon formed against you by the enemy shall prosper
Cuz you've got a weapon that will always have power
Your weapon is praise for the rest of your days
So stomp on the devil and lift Jesus' name



My song to the God of my life...

You can take everything away
But you can't take away my praise
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hope remains and joy sustains
This weary soul
Praise You from whom ALL blessings flow!
