Life-giving words

“I will remember the deeds of the Lord;
    yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
 I will consider all your works
    and meditate on all your mighty deeds.”
Your ways, God, are holy.
    What god is as great as our God?
You are the God who performs miracles;
    you display your power among the peoples.” (Psalm 77:11-14 NIV)


[Today I invite you to hear these words as if God was speaking them into your spirit:]

“I am the God of resurrection power. I infuse every dead and lifeless thing with vibrant life. Do you have loved ones who’ve turned from me? Call upon my resurrection power over their deadened hearts. I know how to woo the hearts of those who I’ve created. Do you have dreams that have been buried in the grave of disappointment? Let me give those dreams newness of life. I will reawaken them and dust them off. I will season them with fresh wisdom, creativity, and favor.

“I alone am a miracle-working God. When you stand in faith, believing nothing is too hard for me, I meet that faith and show myself strong. It doesn’t matter what things look like on the outside. Get a new understanding of my power. I formed the earth, stars, and seas. I breathe life into every wind. I sculpted your frame and made pathways for every vein. I wove your flesh from the substance of love. Let me be the God whose very name is alive. I will show my resurrection power in your life.”*

God,
Thank you for these life-giving words. Help us to embrace your hope, your dreams, your promises, and your miracles. Give us faith for this journey and show your resurrection power, we ask in Jesus’s name, Amen.


“Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does.” (Psalm 145:16 NIV)
