Thursday Greetings:)
I love the verses we have looked at the last couple of days, so join me for round three.
But first, allow me to answer one of your questions.
"Yenise, I do not feel comfortable always bothering God and asking for help all the time."
Dear brother, READ THE BIBLE.
John 16:24 "Ask, and you shall receive."
James 4:2 "...You do not have because you do not ask God."
And those are just two of many many more. Feel free to take God at His Word and ask away. Besides, you really do not have the ability to take care of everything on your own.
Now then, just this morning I shared a "let there be" prayer with someone who's mom was going into surgery.
"'Let there be' healing and health and a complete recovery for so-and-so. Let there be peace in the patient and wisdom and skill in the surgeon..."
It just makes my day when we invite God to hover over us. And the word--hover--got me thinking, so I looked up other versions of the Bible to see what they say.
The Young's Literal Translation of the Bible says God was "fluttering."
That word inspired me so much that I spent the rest of the day yesterday till almost 1AM this morning sporadically asking God to flutter over each of us. To flutter over our businesses, health, emotions, bank accounts, relationships, and jobs.
And every time I thought about it, I was over joyed because there is a mighty precedent here, people. The entire creation came into existence because God fluttered.
He can make something out of nothing. He can create new beginnings in our lives. He can speak a word, and every thing changes--in a flash!
Join me today in asking God to flutter over us.
PRAYER:
Dear Lord, What a perfectly wonderful word--FLUTTER. We invite You to flutter over us right now with your unparalleled magnificence. Right before You did that in Genesis the earth was "void and empty." Then You showed up and awesome miracles took place. Sometimes we feel void and empty, but You have exactly what we need to feel alive. In Jesus' name, AMEN~
