OVERWHELM US BEYOND OUR EXPECTATIONS
Thursday 20th October 2022
Psalms 100:4 (MSG) Enter with the password: "THANK YOU!" Make yourselves at home, talking praise. Thank him. Worship him
Father, we thank you for drawing us to call on Your name. Precious Holy Spirit, we pray that you carry us on Your wings as we seek and call on Your name.
[When You said,] "Seek My face," My heart said to You, "Your face, LORD, I will seek." Psalms 27:8
Do not hide Your face from me; Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not leave me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation Psalms 27:9.
I have not spoken in secret, In a dark place of the earth; I did not say to the seed of Jacob, ' Seek Me in vain'; I, the LORD, speak righteousness, I declare things that are right Isaiah 45:19.
Father, as we gather in the name of Jesus, It is You Lord we long for, desire, seek after, and yearn for.
Ezekiel 47:2 He brought me out by way of the north gate, and led me around on the outside to the outer gateway that faces east; and there was water, running out on the right side
Again he measured one thousand, [and it was] a river that I could not cross; for the water was too deep, water in which one must swim, a river that could not be crossed Ezekiel 47:5.
Like an angel held the hands of Ezekiel and took him to different depths of water, hold our hands precious Holy Spirit and take us to the depths we have never been to, to experience Your presence and beauty.
We humble ourselves under Your might hand by prayer. You are our help, strength, confidence, hope, and sufficiency Lord.
Even as we chose to continue calling on your name, go beyond our prayers, expectations, and imaginations and overwhelm us.
John 21:3 ... They went out and immediately got into the boat, and that night they caught nothing.
John 21:6 And He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find [some.]" So they cast, and now they were not able to draw it in because of the multitude of fish.
We invite you into our boats; business boats, marital boats, career boats, ministry boats where our toiling has yielded nothing that you may change the testimony of the nights because You are the factor that makes a difference.
Overwhelm us Lord in every faculty of our lives.
What January, February through September could not give us, come and overwhelm us with a "catch."
Like Peter said, "nevertheless at your word", let the word come to that struggling mother, husband, wife, business, ministry, etc: the word that will bring an end to the predicament, break the barrenness, end unfruitfulness, and toil.
Enable our eyes to see, ears to hear, the heart to perceive that we may behold You.
STAY BLESSED AND HIGHLY FAVORED, WE LOVE YOU. PASTOR BEN OCHOLA.
