The marriage of the Lamb has come
His bride prepared for this
Her bridal gown is fine, white linen
Clean and white, her righteousness
Blessed are all who have been called
To feast upon this day
At the marriage supper of the Lamb
Their joy is here to stay
Birds sing whenever a new day dawns
And night creatures give voice every night
The trees of the field clap their hands in the breeze
And the sun touches all in its sight
Stars sparkle against the black canvas of night
They’re magnificent in their display
And the moon’s ever changing yet constant form
Softly shines to light up our way
What an awesome Creator, our God and King
To whom lightning and thunder bow down
He controls the formidable, raging sea
And the storm clouds which hide the sun
He sends the snow and the pouring rain
And the cold winds and the hurricanes
In His presence the earth quakes and splits in two
And tornadoes tear up the plains
And at His command the sun warms up the land
And the ice and the snow melt away
And flowers spring up and decorate fields
In a diverse colour display
No attention to detail was spared when God made
The earth and the Heavens above
From the tiniest life form to the greatest star
All was made in God’s perfect love
Thank you, Lord, for Your faithfulness..
When we speak these words in praise from the heart, we not only express, but also increase our dedication to the LORD. In saying this, we recognize that all we have, comes as a result of GOD’S promises to us – as a result of His faithfulness in our lives. This type of praise recognizes that we can be dedicated to GOD, because He is dedicated to us. This type of praise recognizes that He is dedicated to our joy, our peace and our growth and that GOD has dedicated Himself to our personal joy and fulfillment.
How dedicated is GOD? [Romans 8:32] says: He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how will He not also with Him, freely give us ALL things?
GOD is FAITHFUL. He deserves the praise and the glory for His unwavering faithfulness.
I’ve a story to tell
Though old, ever new
It’s the greatest love story
Mankind ever knew
Of a Bridegroom who’s Father
Had chosen a Bride
For the Son of His Love
His joy and His pride
His Son left the Kingdom
Of Light up above
To a kingdom of darkness
To set free His love
Guarded by dragons
And fierce dogs of hell
His bride lived in darkness
And thought all was well
Till He broke through the gates
With a two edged sword
And pierced through the darkness
And fought off the hordes
The light of His countenance
Turned night to day
And wherever He went
The dark kept at bay
He washed her and clothed her
In raiment pure white
And His love overflowed
For she was His delight
He returned to prepare
A feast for His bride
And soon He will fetch her
To live at His side
If Holy Spirit lives in me
How can I be defeated
The Holy Spirit’s power in me
Is the power in which I’m seated
No longer just a human
For GOD has translated me
Into His perfect Kingdom
And I dwell in victory
GOD”S exceeding great and precious
Promises are mine and given free
I partake of Divine Nature
And death has no hold on me
I’ve escaped all the corruption
That is in this word through lust
All that pertains to life and godliness
Is given unto us
In the knowledge of the Father
Who called us to higher ground
We live in His glory and virtue
Even when no-one’s around
Now unto Him who’s able
Through the power that works within
To do far more than we ask or think
All honour, glory, praise to Him
It is I who created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its work” And it is I WHO HAVE CREATED THE DESTROYER TO WORK HAVOC; no weapon formed against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from Me,” Declares the LORD.
Isaiah 54:16-17
The children of GOD have been baptized with power from on high [Holy Spirit power] to overcome the onslaughts of the evil one. God allows him to work havoc in our lives for one reason only: to bring His children to maturity in Him. Every time we face a trial and overcome it by standing in faith on the promises of GOD, we reach a higher level of maturity.
GOD has called us to wear the full armour of GOD and to fight the good fight of faith. Sometimes we get wounded or weary in the battle, but He is always there to bring healing and strength for the next battle we’re going to fight. Furthermore, He prepares a table for us in the middle of the battle ground. That is where we feast on His Word and receive the fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit to continue the fight.
GOD has promised that no weapon formed against us will prevail. No matter how many burning arrows [fiery darts] the enemy shoots at us, our breastplates of righteousness are impenetrable and our shields of faith will ward them off. As for wagging tongues who judge, gossip, and accuse us falsely; we will prove them to be lying weapons of the enemy, sent to harm us. GOD said that this is our heritage and our vindication from Him.
God never promised that our walk with Him would be easy, but the rewards far outweigh the discomfort.
Lord, You fill my heart with songs
Of worship and of praise
In languages known and unknown
Oh, Ancient One of days
Lord, from my heart the river flows
And gushes eagerly
Out of my mouth as love wells up
From deep inside of me
LORD, You fill all of my being
With Holy Spirit fire
And in Your presence I am strong
Your will is my desire
Lord, Your Word is life to me
You are the air I breathe
You are the essence of my being
To You, my Lord, I cleave
From beneath the throne of God
A crystal river flows
Down the midst of Zion’s great street
The wondrous river goes
On either side the Tree of Life
Stands strong in holy ground
It bears twelve crops of fruit each month
It’s fruitful all year round
Its leaves are for the healing of the nations
There won’t be
Any curse or darkness
For the Lord Himself will be
The Light Who lights the darkness
No need for lamps nor sun
His name is on the foreheads of
His people, every one
In love His own will serve Him
For He’s Faithful and He’s true
We will give Him praise thank Him
For He’s made our lives anew
At His throne His own will worship
And adore the King of kings
In the splendour of His presence
For all the joy He brings
Oh LORD GOD of Israel, there is no GOD like You on Heaven or on Earth – You who keep Your covenant of love with Your servants who continue wholeheartedly in Your way. You have kept Your promise to Your servant David my father; with Your mouth You have promised and with Your hand You have fulfilled it – as it is today. [2 Chronicles 14-15]
Praise GOD who always fulfills His promises!
GOD is not a man that He should lie. Every promise He has made, He keeps. If He said it, you can rest assured He’ll bring it to pass. Trust in Him with all of your heart and don’t look to your own understanding. He is more than your GOD. He is also your Heavenly Father who loves you as much as He loves Jesus. There is nothing you cannot talk to Him about. He knows all of your yesterdays and all of your tomorrows. Nothing is hidden from His sight. There is no problem too big for Him to solve, no darkness so deep that His light cannot penetrate it and remove it from your life. GOD said that the work that He started in your life when you gave you heart to, Him, He will bring to completion. Discover His promises as you read the Bible and meditate on them continuously. Speak the Word and claim the Truth in your life and see the glory of GOD as He brings each one them to pass.
