Hold On To The God Who Holds You | Blessed Morning Prayer To Start Your Day

[Music] it is my personal belief that a strong believer in Christ as someone who has no crutches and when I say crutches I'm talking about everything apart from God that we put our hope in a crutch is anything that stops you from completely throwing yourself into the arms of God some people trust in the money that they've saved others trust in their own ability other people put more trust in the opinions of doctors and scientists over God the word of man has more weight in their hearts than the word of God but dear listener we

need to remove every crutch in our lives we need to get to a place where we say either I stand completely trusting in Jesus Christ or I don't stand at all either I walk by faith completely trusting in Jesus Christ or I don't walk at all the Bible says in 2 Corinthians 12:9 but he said to me my grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses so that Christ's power May rest on me God's grace is enough for you to

stand strong God's grace is enough for your family and you can only find this out when you remove every crutch in your life and this knowledge of just how much God's grace is sufficient for you only comes when you reach a place where nothing else will do no one else will do and for sure nothing else will work only Jesus this should be our prayer Lord remove everything I am leaning on that's not you remove anything that I'm using as a crutch and help me to see that you are enough your grace is sufficient enough

only Jesus Christ should be the solid rock on which you stand on because all other ground is sinking sand when you remove every crutch from your life and you cling to Jesus you will find his word to be true Isaiah 40: 29 it tells us that he gives power to the weak and to those who have no might he increases strength if you put your trust in people they will fail you if if you put your trust in material things they will fail you if you trust yourself if you trust in your abilities you will

fail but some trust in horses some trust in chariots but we will trust in the name of the Lord Our God We Trust in the name that is above every other name and that is Jesus Christ and so if you'll remember only one thing from my message today remember this man will fail you people will fail you things will fail you money will fail you but Jesus Christ will never fail you as Believers we often go to God with different prayer requests we go to God with a list of what we want and what we

need but I believe that as often as we go to God with prayer requests we need to go to him with nothing but praise on our lips dear friends I don't have many words to share with you today aside from what is in the word of God I would like to share with you a Psalm of Praise And what I have personally done is that when I am in need of inspiration I simply pray this Psalm and so the Bible in Psalm 145 verse 1 to3 says I will exalt you my God and King and

praise your name forever and ever I will praise you every day yes I will Praise You Forever great is the Lord he is most worthy of Praise no one can measure his greatness Let each generation tell its children of your Mighty acts let them Proclaim your power I will meditate on your Majestic glorious Splendor and your wonderful Miracles your all inspiring Deeds deeds will be on every tongue I will Proclaim your greatness everyone will share the story of your wonderful goodness they will sing with Joy about your righteousness the Lord is merciful and compassionate slow

to get angry and filled with unfailing love the Lord is good to everyone he showers compassion on all his creation all of your Works will thank you Lord and your faithful followers will praise you they will speak of the glory of your kingdom they will give examples of your power they will tell about your Mighty deeds and about the majesty and Glory of your Reign for your kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom you rule throughout all generations the lord always keeps his promises he is gracious in all he does so I encourage you to praise the

Lord when you praise God despite the danger you face he will intervene when you praise God in the middle of your problems you magnify God instead of the problem when you praise God despite your enemies coming against you God will intervene now it may not always be easy to praise there will be days where we may not feel like it there'll be moments where you're so up against it and struggling but I can tell you that if only you can learn to praise the Lord with all your heart in those moments you will find him

to be a strong shelter during life's storms you will find him to be more than capable of halting and defeating your enemies so hear me people of God praise should be a priority in your life now let us pray dear Lord we give you praise we praise you because you are The God Who sustains us you are The God Who heals us The God Who protects and provides for us and for that we praise you your word says in Psalm 145 verse 14 to 21 the Lord helps the fallen and lifts those bent beneath their

loads the eyes of all look to you in hope you give them their food as they need it when you open your hand you satisfy the hunger and thirst of every living thing the Lord is righteous in everything he does he is filled with kindness the Lord is close to all who call on him yes to all who call on him in truth he grants the desires of those who fear Him he hears their cries for help and recuses them the Lord protects all those who love him but he destroys the wicked I will praise

the Lord and may everyone on Earth bless His holy name forever and ever we praise you father for the battles that you have fought on our behalf we praise you for the protection that is Upon Our Lives we praise you for the favor that you have placed over our lives we praise you for the grace and mercy that you have shown us God I praise you with my whole heart and say to you that you are holy you alone are righteous you alone are all Mighty King Jesus there is none like you there will never

be any that comes close to you you alone will receive our adoration because you are all Mighty and you have no equal Lord we may not have all that we want but we have all that we could ever need in you we may not have all of our heart's desires but all we could ever desire can be found in you Lord Jesus you are more than enough in you we are content Lord Jesus we thank you for your your love and grace we thank you for the unmar favor that is Upon Our Lives we put

our trust in you a God who never fails us father at this time we ask that you remove every crutch from our lives may we know you King Jesus to be enough remove everything that we lean on and Trust in so that All That Remains is you Lord help us to come to the knowledge and understanding that your grace is indeed sufficient your power is indeed made perfect in our weakness through all the situations we Face may we come to know and to see that your love King Jesus is enough your grace is enough your

word is enough your joy is enough and outside of you master we need no one else and nothing else Psalm 103:8 says the Lord is merciful and gracious slow to anger and abounding in Mercy so many things you have given us Lord that we do not deserve so many times you've forgiven us and shown us Mercy only for us to fall again but today Master we seek your forgiveness and repent we thank you because instead of fear you have given us a spirit of power love and a sound mind instead of sickness you have given

us the assurance that by your stripes we are healed with all the times that we have sinned and fallen short you still call for us to repent and follow you and in addition to that your arms are still open your word in Matthew 11: 28-29 says come to me all you who labor and are heavy laden I will give you rest take my yoke upon you and learn from me for I am gentle and lowly in heart and you will find rest for your souls we did nothing to deserve this love yet you still offer

it and so we thank you we are we're grateful and we appreciate your goodness Lord Jesus we do not deserve the protection you offer but you still give your Angel's charge over us we give you praise Lord Jesus we glorify your precious name thank you for hearing my prayer in Jesus name I pray amen but he said to me my grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses so that Christ's power May rest on me I will exalt you my
