We have set this concluding track of our 'Transfiguration' album to a powerful piece of improvised music that members of Wellspring played some years ago, as part of their release: 'The Return.' We are grateful for permission to use the music here.
Lord, you dwell in the heights,
but also with those who are humble at heart.
keep us walking humbly in Your way.
let Your glory touch our hearts
our homes, our travels, our relationships, our places of work.
“Let nothing disturb you,
nothing frighten you;
all things pass,
but God never changes.
His Patience achieves all it intends;
and He who has God
will want for nothing.”
Therefore, Father, we rest in the love that supports us all the days of our life,
as we embark on all that you have called us to be and to do for You,
may the joy of the Risen Transfigured Christ,
the intimacy of the Father
and the encouragement of the Holy Spirit be ours this day and forever;
by day and by night, both waking and sleeping,
until the morning star rises in our hearts,
and we are transfigured into the likeness of our coming King.
Lord, when You return to Earth, riding on the clouds of glory, with death defeated and every victory won, You will take captivity captive and recompense Your saints. Even so, come quickly Lord.
It is fitting that we should prepare the way for His return by praying for the people and the land to which He will one day come; a nation that has suffered so much, but which has been miraculously preserved by the hand of God. We share Your heart cry, Father, for the moving of Your Spirit in Jerusalem and Israel.
Awake, awake! Clothe yourself with strength, O arm of the Lord;
awake, as in days gone by,
Arise and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show her favour;
the appointed time has come.
to those in Jacob who repent of their sins. (Is. 59:18-20)
Let Israel yield to Yeshua,
and let the surrounding nations, hear of Esa,
Messiah, and learn to follow Him.
In Jordan, the Lebanon, Syria and Palestine,
let Your Church be a force for change,
a fountain of hope and a stream of blessing.
Prince of Peace, whose domain will extend from shore to shore,
cleanse and prepare these nations as they await the day of Your return.
