[Music] Psalm 46 ver 10 be still and know that I am God I will be exalted among the Nations I will be exalted in the earth there is something about Stillness and I believe that this verse is calling us to be still before the Lord because we need to direct all of our attention all of our focus on the Lord and if you really think about it when the Bible says be still and know that I am God it's really telling you to stop everything you're doing stop worrying stop fighting stop resisting and start yielding
to God start listening to God you see when you spend time getting to know the Lord when you spend time in the presence of Jesus Christ you will truly be transformed and I encourage you to desire and hunger for these types of Rich Encounters in the presence of God because it's only in those onetoone intimate encounters that each of us can get a personal revelation of who God truly is it's only in those onetoone intimate encounters that each of us can be empowered and filled with Courage the courage to face the world and stand up
for Christ the courage to stand up to the devil and declare that Jesus Christ is Lord the prophet Isaiah received a revelation that should inspire all of us to recognize God for who he truly is listen carefully to what Isaiah 45: 2-7 says I will go before you and make the Crooked places straight I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden Riches of secret places that you may know that I the Lord who call you by your name am
the god of Israel for Jacob my servant's sake and Israel my elect I have even called you by your name I have named you though you have not known me I am the lord and there is no other there is no God besides me I will gge you though you have not known me that they may know from the rising of the sun to itself that there is none besides me I am the lord and there is no other I form the light and create Darkness I make peace and create Calamity I the Lord do
all these things this is a wonderful revelation of just who God is God is firmly in control God is all knowing god is Almighty Isaiah 45:22 to 23 says look to me and be saved all you ends of the Earth for I am God and there is no other I have sworn by myself the word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness and shall not return that to me every knee shall bow every tongue shall take an oath in those moments where we we are still before God we need to realize just how Mighty
God is just how powerful God is the Bible tells us there is no one and nothing that can be compared to God we need to remember this nothing and no one is worthy to be competing for the number one spot of your heart God should be first now let us pray dear Lord I worship you because you are the God who makes crooked places straight you are the God who can move mountains and you certainly deserve all the honor and [Music] praise I am looking to you King Jesus I am looking to you to transform
my life I am looking to you King Jesus to save my soul I am looking to you Lord as My Redeemer and Messiah there is none like you father no one can be compared to you help us to be still and know that you alone are God help us to have a sacred commitment to spend time alone with you let it be a daily desire that we seek to spend time alone in your presence Holy Spirit I ask that you help me to make prayer and reading God's word a priority in my life in the
midst of a Busy World keep our lives from controlling us help us to keep our relationship with Jesus Christ a priority Holy Spirit I ask that you never give up on us don't stop convicting me and pulling me in the direction of the Lord help me to set my eyes and affections on Heaven John 14:6 16 says and I will pray the father and he will give you another helper that he may abide with you forever help me Holy Spirit help me to seek God's presence on a daily basis the Bible says in 1 Peter
2: 1-3 therefore laying aside all malice all deceit hypocrisy envy and all evil speaking as newborn babes desire the pure milk of the word that you may grow thereby if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious under your guidance Holy Spirit I pray that I may begin to grow spiritually and in faith I pray that I may grow in knowledge help me to grow as a Believer and become spiritually mature Holy Spirit help me to grow in my knowledge of God and of his ways help me to grow each day as I meditate
upon the Living Word of God the Bible says in Psalm 119 verse 25 my soul clings to the dust revive me according to your word revive me Lord revive my spirit and refresh my desire to chase after you revive my spirit so that I may be alert and sensitive to your presence King Jesus lemon ation 3:25 the Bible reads the Lord is good to those who wait for him to the soul who seeks him I will wait on you Lord Jesus I will wait on you with an expectant heart I pray that the holy spirit
will create a fire in me that burns brightly for the things of God a fire that burns for Jesus Christ you are number one in my life King Jesus Jesus you are the king of my heart may you be exalted Psalm 119 verse 105 your word says your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path may your word guide me always may it lead me and teach me your ways I thank you for hearing this prayer in the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray [Music] amen be still and know
