The Tomb

At the door of the sepulchre
I kneeled down to pray
On the other side of the stone
Is where my Savior lay.

Sleeping peacefully in the tomb
To rest His stripes and open wounds
I longed to enter this Spirit-filled room.

Patiently I waited for the stone to roll away
But sleep encompassed me
On that Third day
Falling upon me in a comatose way.

As silence melted into the land
Quietly I lay in the Master's hand.

When I was awakened
To the dawn of the day
The door of the sepulchre
Had been rolled away.

Two angels graced my presence
They took me by the hand
And led me into the tomb
To witness the glory
Of the Father's Plan.

A sweet odor of spices
Filled this empty room
And a fine linen napkin
Lay in the sepulchre
In the stillness of the tomb.

At that very moment
I knew I had been given
A new Spirit-filled life
By the rising of the Son
Jesus Christ.

Getting Dressed

Another morning, a new day, I am awakened to the goodness of God's grace and mercy to witness His wondrous works in the earth.  I began thanking Him and praising Him as my feet prepared to touch down on the floor.

I made my way to the ladies room still praising and thanking God, Lord over, in and of my life.  A few minutes later, it was time to get dressed.  God spoke to me and told me what I should wear today; He said to put on the voice of praise and then clothe myself with strength, encouragement, committing and surrendering my life to Him.  I am now ready to go to work in my home office.

I want to share with you the importance of:

Praising God
Thanking God
Blessing God
Reverencing God
Trusting God
Honoring God
Worshipping God
Waiting on God
And keeping your faith in God.

If you're experiencing hardships, persecution, fear, worry, doubt, difficulty, trials and tribulations in your life and you have been praying for God to answer and perhaps deliver you from all your anxieties and you have not heard a word from Him, keep praying, trusting and believing, giving thanks and praising Him for what He is planning to do in your life because He is working even though you may feel that He is not answering your prayers and supplications.  Be faithful to Him as He is to you and He will give you the best for your life. Our God is a loving, caring, patient, understanding and Sovereign God and He loves you despite of your iniquities.  Go to God and repent of your sins and ask Him to forgive you.  Wait on the Lord, be of good courage and He will strengthen your heart; wait I say on the Lord.  So if you're scared and maybe all alone, trust in and wait on God and look up and watch Him work in your life.  You won't be disappointed.  I promise.  

Have a blessed and wonderful day in Jesus Christ!
