Wednesday Writing by Lisabeth Lipp......1/22/17

Good Morning

Our writing today is a prayer prayed by Lizabeth Lipp, who is a prayer warrior. The title of the writing is  "Awesome God...A Prayer. " It is a joy for me to believe that this prayer will come to your mind often today and that it will lead you to personal prayers of your own.

Have a wondrous Wednesday, and for California that it will be a dry day after the last few days of deluge and flooding. Pray for displaced people everywhere.

God bless

Liz and Corinne

Today's Devotional
"Awesome God...A Prayer"

In the Word, our precious  Bible provides all kinds of inspiration for 

prayer. Some prayers are even quoted in the Bible, for instance the Lord's prayer. In Psalms we have amazing poetry written for music that is actually prayer. This  prayer has been written by a friend who is a  prayer 

warrior and a very amazing woman. The prayer below was written a prayer based on  the tw0  scriptures below.

 Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably morethan all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in               Christ Jesus throughout all generations  forever and ever!                                 Amen.

                            Ephesians 3:20-21                                  NIV

We have all benefited 
from the rich blessings
he brought to us—
blessing upon blessing
heaped upon us.  
John 1:16TLB

Lord, 

I ask that you will help remove any trace of doubt in  your ability 

or your willingness to give good gifts to us, your children. Lord you are able to do immeasurably more than all we ask  or imagine. You bless us in many ways that we did not even think to ask you for. Sometimes those

blessings are not even something that we initially wanted or liked but you

know our needs better than we do. You are at work in our lives, and your power is evident in us as we turn to you. Thank you for all you have done  

for us. Thank you for the many blessings that  you send
 

our way. From the fullness of your grace we have indeed 

all received one blessing after another. Open our eyes to 

see all that you are doing for us. It is so easy for us to focus on

 the lacks-the needs-the wants- and forget your provision, 

your blessings, your good gifts that you have given us.

Lord forgive our near nearsightedness and heal the 
selfishness in our  hearts.

. 

Give us gratitude and willingness to tell others how your are 

indeed working in our your goodness encourage others 

and bring glory to you as we tell of your answered

prayers to those around us. Fill our churches with

testimonies of your working in the lives of your children. 

In Jesus name, 

amen.
