“High and Lifted Up”

 Psalm 25:1, 2

To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul,

O my God, I trust in You.  (NKJ)

     Whether we are on our knees pleading for God's mercy and grace or our hands are lifted high into the heavens, praising and glorifying God’s awesome Presence in our lives, it is our precious souls that cry out for a life of dependence and fellowship with God.  There is no One, or anything in all existence that can satisfy the longings of our hearts but the One who was and is and always will be; the Creator, our Lord God and Savior, Jesus Christ.  The LORD God is our omnipresent Father who provides everything we will ever need in our life-journey's.  He is our omnipotent Savior who has saved us from our own destructive, sinful behavior that would have otherwise led us into the pits of Hell.  And He is your omniscient Spirit who guides us in all truth and leads us through heavens gate. He is our infinite Creator, your Provider, and your trusted Redeemer. 

     If it were not for the outpouring of the Lord's gracious favor, we would either cease to exist, or wished we didn’t.  If it were not for His mercy and grace we would be left to our own demise, which would fail us miserably.  You have in Jehovah the only Living God, who is everything you could possibly dream of and so much more.  And when you pray to the One who has gifted you with the breath of life and the hope of Heaven, let your soul be lifted high into His mighty arms, for it’s there you will find the peace and comfort that exceeds anything you can explain.  It is by lifting your soul as high as you can that you are able to leave your troubles and fears behind to meet the God who gave it all for you.  Our Sovereign God in Heaven will meet you wherever you are, dear friend, but the higher you lift your soul, the closer you are to God, and it's in His Presence that you can be sure of His provision and protection forevermore!

                                   A Whisper of Hope

Ask in faith, my child…and it will be given unto you.  When you honor Me with your life, I will honor you in return.  When you give Me your life, I will give you a new life beyond your limited understanding—an everlasting life that exceeds anything you can possibly imagine.  Lift up My Name before the world, and I will lift you up into the heavens high above, where I will meet you in all My Glory and take you Home!

1 Corinthians 9:6

But we know that there is only one God, the Father, who created

everything, and we exist for Him.  And there is only one Lord,

Jesus Christ, through whom God made everything and through

whom we have been given life.  (NLT)

          For He satisfies the longing soul, and fills the 

                        hungry soul with goodness.

                                  (Psalm 107:9)
