Prayers: Vanity of Vanities

/in /by

God Hear Our Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, I come before your throne of Grace and Mercy this day.  I come, Lord God, just to experience your presence.  It is in your presence that I long to stay.  I am safe from all danger when I am with you, Lord. Each day, as I smell the sweet savor of your breath, Dear LORD, I am so glad that you have shown me how to walk and talk with You.  You have taught me what it means to be a wife, a mother, and a friend.  In all my educated wisdom, loving you has taught me that I knew nothing at all before I met you.  For all this and more, my God, I am grateful.

I am still “Considering” you, O LORD.  There are so many things that we look upon with our natural eyes and mind and we marvel at the wonder of it all not realizing its spiritual significance.  The Bible teaches us, Lord, that you made the sun, the moon, and that you also made the stars.  These heavenly entities will one day pass away.  They were created to bring light in the midst of darkness for a given period of time for the benefit of mankind.  Man has developed ways to capture, worship, and even improve earthly knowledge.  We act in ignorance because we know not what they are.  O LORD, have mercy on us!  Forgive our sinfulness and our desire to be so intellectually superior to others that we prove ourselves truly ignorant before you instead.

I understand the cries of King Solomon when he declared, “Vanity of Vanities, all is Vanity.”  Seeing the world through your eyes, Father, creates doom in the eyes of the beholder, yet it brings joy everlasting when one realizes that he has been “saved” from the dangers of the battle that is raging all around!  O God, sometimes it feels like walking through the valleys and shadows of death with the enemy pulling on all sides.  But, O, in the midst of it all, even in the light of the dangers that are seen, you still remain God Almighty.  You still provide unspeakable peace.  By your Mercy, LORD, I have “Considered” all the workings of the world under the sun, and I am grateful that you protect those that love you.  Oh how I love you, Lord God!  Help me to never stop loving you, Father God.  Amen.

I pray now, Lord God, for the faithful followers you have given me.  Help them to continue to seek your presence, Lord.  Keep them safe from danger and hold them close as they seek your wisdom.  Help me to stand for them, Lord, when they cannot stand.  Help us all to remain on one accord while following your directions to us, Father.  Make us all one in your sight and continue to Dissect our souls, Dear Lord.  Shed your sweet loving Holy Ghost upon us, I pray.  Amen.

As I humble myself in your presence today, Father, I have “Considered” as Your Spirit has directed.  O God, what a thought!  To consider my life without you brings tears to my eyes; to consider ever that I must stand alone in this battle is fearful indeed; to consider that the God that is God of ALL things in heaven, in the earth, and in the sea beneath the earth, “loves” me, provides me with a greater faith, strength, and the assurance that I can endure to the end.  To be “Considered” by you, Dear God, is to make you proud and give you joy.  I have “Considered” You, as You continuously “Consider” me!  To this end, My Everlasting Friend and Savior, I do submit my TOTAL being to You in Love.  Amen, Amen, and AMEN.

God Hear Our Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, LORD God Almighty.  I humble myself to you today acknowledging that you ARE God.  Thank you, Father, for the many blessings, teachings, trials, and tribulations that have come my way.  Thank you, LORD, for delivering me from the hands of my enemies.  I praise your Holy Name, my Lord, for loving me as you do.  I am not worthy of all that you do for me.  Please continue to search my heart, my Lord, and know that there is nothing or anyone more important in this world to me than you.  Without you, Lord Jesus, I cannot stand.  I would not survive one day in this miserable place called Earth without you.  My eyes are opened to see the devastations and the evil lurking at every corner.  Help us, LORD.  Do not forget your people, LORD!  Remember to help us because we are not capable of helping ourselves.

Each day, as I consider the magnitude and depth of your love for all men, I am left speechless.  You maintain an outstretched arm even when we sin against you, God.  You keep trying to reach us to teach us how to live for you…how to truly love you.  Yet we reject you for instant pleasures and wisdom gained from this world instead.  Help me, LORD God, to receive your love more and more each day.  Help me, LORD, to know that your love is everlasting and that nothing can stop me from loving you, if this is my desire. Help me to know and understand that through the love relationship that we have developed, there is no fear that you will ever stop loving me.  Amen.  Nothing can ever separate me from your love!  Yet, Sweet Jesus, I understand that you will not tolerate my evil heart. Clearly this is why you have commanded that we love you with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind, and all of our strength.  When we love you as you desire, there is no room for evil to take control.  So thank you, Father God.  I give you permission to continue to “Dissect My Soul,” dear Lord.

I pray now, Lord, for the members of Dissect My Soul.  I pray for all those that have joined the “Love Jesus” Movement.  Keep them safe, Lord God.  Help them to always remember that the only way to overcome the evil in this world is to maintain an intimate love relationship with you.  Dear Lord, the world is changing around us, second by second.  You have taught me not to be shocked or alarmed at the evil that is increasing in the world today.  Help my followers and disciples to be unafraid.  Help them, Lord, to be bold and truthful in their daily walk with you.  Protect them, Father God, as they go.  As they seek your face, minute by minute, bring them into your presence that they might know and understand the degree of your love for them.  Please do this for me, Lord Jesus! Grant them peace and shelter within your Presence.  Thank you, LORD Jesus, for your love.  Amen.

Words of Encouragement:

Do you realize how much The LORD loves YOU!  The God who created all things is madly in love with you.  Every day, I discover and understand the love of God in ways that I could never imagine before.  Consider the true story below:

“Tell him that I love him:”

A few weeks ago, I was having trouble with my laptop.  I knew that I needed to get it repaired immediately as I was leaving the country in a few days and would need it while I was away.  I began to search on Google for a service center that could help me with short notice.  I immediately found a nearby shop that could see me that day.  As I spoke to the gentleman on the phone, I encountered a “spirit” that I could not identify at the time.  It was informative, yet aloof; semi-kind yet rude.  When I arrived for my appointment, I was greeted and assisted by a very personable young man.  This was clearly not who I had spoken to over the phone.  There was another gentleman there that appeared to be the boss.  He was very demanding of his employees and seemed to micromanage their every move.  I inquired of the whereabouts of the gentleman that I had spoken to on the phone, as I had gotten his name. Not surprisingly, the gentleman on the phone was the same as the man that appeared as the boss.  He was the boss.

At the end of the service visit, some 5 hours later since the laptop had to be left with them, I noticed a sign in the shop that appeared to be of a Christian nature.  The “boss” had begun to introduce me to various types of software that would be helpful to me in the real estate business, and my husband and I listened attentively.  Suddenly, the conversation changed to life issues regarding the government and how he believed that “Big Brother” was forever watching our every move.  On the surface of what he was saying I had no objections, but spiritually I knew there was more to the story.  I found this man to be extremely intelligent and very well read.  He was educated and boasted of his knowledge as a neurophysicist.  He continued to talk about various subjects that further demonstrated his vast knowledge of the physical world.  I looked at the poster again and I asked him if he was a Christian.  He hesitated slightly and then said he was neither a Christian nor an Atheist. He explained himself as a man of wisdom that looks at everything based on scientific fact.  Our conversation was too detailed to recap it all here, but I then knew why God had sent me to this place.

God had a message for this man.  I was instructed to let him know that Jesus loves him no matter what he believes.  No matter what I said to him, he would ignore my words and wanted only to debate the reality of the true existence of God.  I refused to debate.  I was able to honestly say to him that I did not have to debate because I am “absolutely” sure that God is real.  I explained that I do not rely on the words or testimonies of others as I have personally seen and heard the voice of God Almighty.  I explained that there is nothing that he could say that could change my mind as I KNOW that my God IS God!  We ended this conversation with me begging him to go to my website and read my testimony to understand how I came to “Know” absolutely that Jesus Christ is the living son of God and that God is real.  He promised me that he would.  By the end of our conversation, I saw the human spirit within this man that had an unspoken yearning to know if I was speaking the truth.

Since that day, I am compelled to pray for him daily.  I only pray that God’s will is accomplished in his life.  I do not know what will happen.  But I do know, even while he was denying the existence of my LORD, God was holding an outstretched arm trying to pull this man into His presence.  Today, the LORD shared with me that this man has been chosen by him to be a Messenger to this dying Christian world!  He will continue to pull at his heart until he accepts.  O LORD God, what an awesome loving act this is.

How can this real life story encourage us all?  Know that God is love.  He has the answer to all our problems.  He has a purpose for this man.  Does He have one for you?  Humble yourself to gain a true relationship with Jesus Christ.  There is no other hope in this world.

The devil is deceiving the people of God daily.  Do not be caught in his trap.  Do not think of yourself as better than this man.  He has lived as he has lived by the grace of God and NOW God Almighty will mold him and equip him with “absolute” truth.  Truth that he has no knowledge of, but truth that he will soon come to love and adore.

Be aware of the influence of evil disguised as good!  A few days after my encounter with the man, I was in a church service and saw the people lifting up their hands and praising God! They sang beautiful, melodious songs unto the Lord God.  The LORD began to speak to me and said, “Look at them my child.  They lift up their hands, they shout, and they praise.  But they do not praise me.  They do not worship me.  Their hearts are far from me!”  God shared that the man at the computer shop would more quickly convert to loving Him completely than the hypocrites that were pretending to love Him.  “O LORD God,” I cried!  “Have mercy on us, LORD.  Help us to learn what it means to love and worship you with ALL of our soul.” Be careful that you give no place to the devil within your heart.  This can only be completed through surrendering everything to God in prayer!  You can never resist the devil and he will never flee until you surrender all.  Amen.

Scripture Reference for Meditation and Obedience:

Our fight in this world is not against flesh and blood.  We are not to fight against each other.  We are called to love each other as God loves us.  Do not wrap yourself up in the politics of this world.  Lean unto the LORD for all the wisdom that you need.  Your one true purpose in life is to fall in love with Jesus Christ, My Lord, and Savior.  Fighting each other will produce no spiritual fruit in our lives.  Loving the Lord God by trusting and obeying His commands will yield an overflowing of spiritual knowledge and blessings.  Remember, everything “spiritual” is NOT from God.  Satan is a spirit whose purpose is to present himself as God in our lives.

1 From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5  Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.  (James 4:1-8)

Words of Wisdom: The Love of God Almighty

/in /by

Words of Encouragement:

God is LOVE.  God knows all things.  God is the creator of the universe.  All nature and animals were created by God.  The heavenlies, the sun, the moon, and even the stars were created by God Almighty!  The birds in the air and the beasts that walk this earth had a beginning and were created by God.  The fish in the sea were created by My God Almighty. If God created ALL things, and is a pure and Holy God, where did evil come from?

It stands to reason that “something or someone” that God created released evil upon the earth…and it was not God as He was not created and always has been.  The bible tells us that Lucifer/Satan/Devil, or any other name you want to use, brought disobedience, also called sin, into the world.  God created mankind to love and obey him.  Jesus Christ in His love for us has given us a way to return to the love of God and claim our rightful place in the Kingdom of God.  He has shown the world that all we have to do is LOVE HIM and HIM Alone.  He tells us that He will not only be our Father and God, but that he will be our FRIEND!  He only requires us to abandon ourselves to His will and “Abide” in Him.  We do not need to have any prior training or knowledge.  We just need to gather all that we think we know and come humbly to Him asking that He “Dissect” our souls!  This act of absolute surrender will usher in LOVE.  This will bring WISDOM who has the very heart of God. God will move heaven and earth for the promotion, protection, and safety of the Holy Ghost, which is WISDOM.  Let all who have an ear to hear, hear what thus saith the LORD God Almighty. Surrender today so that you may “Receive ye the Holy Ghost!”  Tomorrow is not promised.  Amen.

Scriptures for Consecration: (Emphasis added where bold letters appear)

  • 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.  (1 Peter 5:10-11)
  • 3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. 4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. 6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. (1 John 2:3-6)
  • 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me. 25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. 26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.  (John 14:23-26)
  • 1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. 9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. (John 15:1-14)
  • 1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. 6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. 7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. 8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. 9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. 10 And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. (John 17:1-10)

Prayers: Shadow of Death

/in /by

God Hear Our Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, My God, My LORD, My Savior, and My Friend, thank you for this day.  Thank you for the opportunity once again to be able to Worship you in Truth and in Spirit.  LORD, I know that you are the best thing that has ever happened to me.  You are the Friend that I have always desired.  I grew up pretty much alone and isolated from the main members of my family.  You allowed me to be raised by my grandparents and for that, Almighty God, I am thankful.  You knew the course my life would take and even then you were preparing me to become a Messenger of the LORD.  You are my FRIEND!  O Lord, how excellent is your wisdom. How Holy is your name.

The path through which you have directed me sometimes feels like walking through the “shadow of death,” but even then, protection is provided.  How do I explain to the world what I see and hear, Dear Lord God?  Why is it difficult for your created souls to believe that all things are spiritual in this world?  Does not the Holy Scriptures declare it to be so?  Why is there so much doubt?  Because of what I see and hear around me, I am confident that being with you, loving you, and remaining in your Presence is the only way to survive.  Your revelations of the existence of the things active in our daily lives that stem from the spiritual realm, are forever implanted within my soul.  Never let me forget or fall away, Lord Jesus.  You have my permission, LORD, to “perfect” your will within my heart every second of the day.  It is through you, Almighty God, that I survive day after day.  Thank you, Lord!

I pray for those that continue to show me kindness, Lord.  I pray for those that believe and follow the teachings that you have provided to me and them.  Protect them, Merciful Father, so that they can grow stronger day by day in your perfect grace.  I pray, Father God, that all enemies of the LORD will be bound this day and always, so that we can continue to grow as a ministry and as a people that have purposed to love you and only you; A people that is willing to be called by your name and accept you as “Our God.”

Lord, may all visitors to our website become infected with your love.  Help them to see that you truly are God and that through you all things are possible that are within your perfect will for their lives.  Amen, Amen, and AMEN.

Prayers: Seeking Thee in Prayer

God Hear Our Prayer:

Dear LORD, my God, my Father, my Friend and Savior Jesus Christ, I humble my heart, my mind, and my soul before your throne of Grace and Mercy this day.  I acknowledge you as LORD and Savior of all things in my life.  I am grateful that you are my God and that you protect me in ways that I could never imagine.  I repent Father, of all sins that I might have committed before you, against you, and against your people, my LORD!  Please teach me, Father, to walk holy and perfectly before you.  I come this day, Lord Jesus, just to say thank you!  I ask for nothing this day, Lord, but to be in your perfect will.  I have no idea what today holds for me, but I do know that as long as I continue to love you completely, Sweet Jesus, that I can handle all things that come my way.  I submit my heart to you today as the Living Son of God Almighty.  Teach me thy ways, Lord.  Guide me into your truths.

As I go forward this day, Heavenly Father, I pray for all the disciples and students that you have given to Dissect My Soul Ministries.  Protect them this day from the enemy of God.  Allow them the freedom to choose YOU, O Lord, my God.  Be merciful to them, Father, as they go out into the world today.  Grant them Peace everlasting and continue to teach them how to enter into your Presence, Dear God.  Help them to understand that you will be there as long as they do not shut you out.  Help them, Lord, to bring EVERY thought before you as they bask in the beauty and power of your Almighty Presence.  I linger, Lord,…now do I linger Lord, as I wait for your daily instruction and guidance for my soul.  It is here, LORD, that I understand who you are.  Thank you, Lord Jesus, for this opportunity to be so in Love with you! You are ALL that I need. Amen, Amen and AMEN.

Words of Wisdom: Praise and Worship In the Presence of God

/in /by

Words of Wisdom and Scripture Reference:

Men should always live for the opportunity to praise and worship God.  To “shout” as most Christians think of it is to offer praise and worship to God.  But, is it really?  It can be…if sincere.  To run, scream, and yell does not mean that true praise and worship are being offered.  Lucifer, now called the devil, was once a Cherubim Angel and was responsible for leading other angels in praising and worshipping God.  As an act of rebellion against God, whom he hates, he incites many Christians today to disturb church services with “false” audible praise that many accept as true praises to God.  Fortunately, those with a genuine spiritual connection with God are not deceived and can discern the devil’s works.  God has taught me the proper manner in which to offer Him praise and worship.  I share these teachings with you below.

What is Praise?

Praise, as God has taught me, is to be thankful.  When we praise God, we express our gratitude for His response to our prayers and His protection of us in all matters.  His loving arms are forever outstretched to fight our enemies for our survival.  He does the things that we cannot do for ourselves, and for that, we should be grateful and thankful.  We praise with a loud voice; we exclaim His joy everlasting, we dance as David danced, and we might even hold up holy hands.  All of these things are acts of visible praise that others might see.  God searches the heart as we praise Him to see if we are truly praising Him or creating a “show” for others to see.  God cannot be fooled. Our praise must be genuine.  The scriptures below are only a few that support the act of giving proper praise to God:

  • 35 And she conceived again, and bare a son: and she said, Now will I praise the Lord: therefore she called his name Judah; and left bearing. (Gen 29:35)
  • 2 Praise ye the Lord for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves. 3 Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, even I, will sing unto the Lord; I will sing praise to the Lord God of Israel. (Judges 5:2-3)
  • 6 And the priests waited on their offices: the Levites also with instruments of musick of the Lord, which David the king had made to praise the Lord, because his mercy endureth for ever, when David praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood. (2 Chron 7:5-6)

What is Worship?

To worship God is to absolutely adore Him!  When we worship Him, we must “humble” ourselves in His presence.  Who are we to stand upright before the Lord God?  In true worship, we automatically fall on our knees, hide our faces, bow our heads, etc.  God is too great for us to stand upright in His presence if we truly worship Him!  The “surrendered” human spirit of man worships God, and an abandoned spirit already knows how to worship the LORD God Almighty! The scriptures below support what God has taught me about worship.  True worship cannot be faked. However, Satan will mock true worshipers.  His goal is to pull such a worshiper into false praise and loud outbursts, to pull them out of truly humbling themselves before the LORD.  This does not mean worship is always silent, but it does mean it is NOT disruptive.  God only reads the heart and knows the true intent of the heart.  Make sure you are not guilty of allowing the enemy to move you into false worship.

During “true” worship given to God, the surrendered human spirit ignores the natural surroundings as the worshiper fixates on the Spirit and Presence of God Almighty!  Search the scriptures and see what is said about “worship.” A few significant scriptures are listed below:

5 And the Lord descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord. 6 And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, 7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, unto the third and to the fourth generation. 8 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped. (Ex 34:5-8)

23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. (John 4:23-24)

26 And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the Lord. 27 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the Lord led me to the house of my master’s brethren. (Gen 24:26-27)

48 I bowed down my head, and worshipped the Lord, and blessed the Lord God of my master Abraham, which had led me in the right way to take my master’s brother’s daughter unto his son. (Gen 24:48)

31 And the people believed: and when they heard that the Lord had visited the children of Israel, and that he had looked upon their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped. (Ex 4:31)

Prayers: Evil is Everywhere

/in /by

God Hear Our Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, my God and my Lord.  I thank you not only for this day in which you have allowed me to breath, to hear, to see, and to understand.  I pray that you will protect me throughout my daily journey and my complete walk with you, Lord.  Today, dear LORD, I surrender my soul unto you.  The more I see…the more I understand.  I know that you have given me choices in life and, Sweet God Almighty, I choose you!  I want no other choice in life.  I understand that I am not capable of choosing correctly for myself.  The devil stands watching at the gates of my heart to present me with choices that are against your perfect will for me.  I see him, and I hear him, but I will not open my heart to him.  The only way, Father, that I can survive is with you!  Amen.

On my last Sabbath Day, LORD, as I studied your word, prayed and worshiped you, God, I gained added light into the degree of evil that surrounds this world.  How great is this evil! All the wisdom of this world does not compare to even a single element of what you give to those that Love YOU, dear Lord.  The foolishness of our hearts and our evil imaginations are only evil in your sight as the Almighty God.  When we begin to think that we are in control of our own destiny, we have already lost the battle.  When we believe that we have gotten away with a particular sinful act, we fool ourselves, as you, God, cannot be deceived. Evil lurks nearby delighted that we have been such an easy prey.  O God, have mercy on us!

You protect us when we have no knowledge that we need to be protected.  Please, Lord; continue to identify the things for which we must pray.  Search our hearts and know that we want you and YOU alone.  Search my heart, Heavenly Father, and KNOW that I am yours. Remove, LORD, all things that might stand between you and me and that might deny me access to your Presence, Dear God.  I give you all of me today, yet again.  I do not trust what I see or hear.  I only trust you, LORD.  It is your truth and your understanding that guides me along this treacherous journey of life.  Thank you for your Mercy and your Grace. I pray that the Holy Ghost Spirit will dwell this day within my total being.  I am treading on dangerous ground and evil is all around.  Every step I take, I take in faith that Wisdom is with me.  I understand that because of my love for you, dear LORD, that your enemies have become my enemies.  I know that the first and last layer of protection for me is wrapped up in Wisdom!  How great is your Wisdom, my God.  I will not be moved by the angry gestures, or the awful visions of destruction.  I place my soul and my spirit into the hands of you as my LORD and Savior.  Amen.

Bless the members of DMSM and the students that pass our way.  Give them the right mind and heart to serve you this day.  Let them know that you truly are God! Amen, Amen and AMEN.

God Hear Our Prayer:

Dear LORD, my great and awesome God.  Thank you, Father, for yet another opportunity to stand before your throne that is filled with Grace and Mercy.  Grace that abounds bountifully within my heart and Mercy that looks beyond my sinful flesh and responds to my every spiritual need.  To Thee, O God, do I bow down and worship your Holy Name!

Even as I love you, Lord, I see the walls caving in around me, O my God!  I see the world going mad in its zeal to know all things.  I see the Churches entering the race for prestige and wisdom…without seeking your face.  Even as I see the devastating things of this world, as you have allowed me to see, My LORD, I experience the comfort of being held in your loving arms.  It is here, LORD, that I, even I, enjoy your powerful peace and the glory and majesty of your holy presence!  Because you shower me with your everlasting Love, O God, I have no fear of the horrible things that I see.  Thank you, LORD, for loving me more than I could ever love myself.  I know, Sweet Jesus, that it is because of your love that I am able to stand.  Thank you for teaching me how to love.  Amen.

Today LORD, as always, I pray for Dissect My Soul Ministries’ Disciples and Followers.  I bring them with me, before your throne, O God.  I pray that you will shower them with your everlasting love and protection.  They are like “Lambs,” O Lord, that are willing to follow your every direction.  They have been allowed to witness much on this journey to live for You alone, Lord God.  They have seen the many miracles that you have performed and they have witnessed the attempted destruction by your enemy against us all, O LORD.  Many have come and gone, but these, O God, are still standing!  Thank you for their faithfulness to You and the Ministry that you have given us.  Keep us forever humbled before you, O Lord.  Help us to continuously know that without you, we are weak and powerless.  Help us, Father, to continue to walk in Faith, understanding that with You, O God, we are capable of doing all things in your name.

As I humble myself in your presence today, Father, I have “Considered” as Your Spirit has directed.  O God, what a thought!  To consider my life without you brings tears to my eyes; to consider ever that I must stand alone in this battle is fearful indeed; to consider that the God that is God of ALL things in heaven, in the earth, and in the sea beneath the earth, “loves” me, provides me with a greater faith, strength, and the assurance that I can endure to the end.  To be “Considered” by you, Dear God, is to make you proud and give you joy.  I have “Considered” You, as You continuously “Consider” me!  To this end, My Everlasting Friend and Savior, I do submit my TOTAL being to You in Love.  Amen, Amen and Amen.
