Word of God, Speak

Awesome Blessed Father,

Thank You. Thank You that I get to come before You asking that You would speak with me this morning. I have fleeting thoughts. Nothing tangible. But then the music starts. ♫Word of God speak

♫Would You fall down like rain Washing my eyes to see Your majesty To be still and know That You're in this place Please let me stay and rest In Your holiness Word of God Speak♫

Mm, yes! Father God how I ask You to speak to me this day.

(7:12 a.m.)

And speak You are doing. Trouble is, now I'm confused! I don't know that I have ever sung this song in regards to Your Son, The Word (John 1:1; Revelation 19:13). I think I've always considered Your Holy Scriptures as the subject.

Father, thank You! Thank You that as I was waking this morning I gave thought to the way You call us to love. “Your Word” (1Corinthians 13:4-7) spells out what real love is, as well as what it is not. We are to live Your love.

Peter wrote a letter to hurting people to show them how to live well in a shattered and hopeless world. We get to take advantage of his “call to healthy living” (1Peter 1:14-2:3). In the midst of this passage (v.25a) Peter told the persecuted early Christians that “the Word of the Lord will last forever.”

Whether it is Your Son, The Word, or Your Holy Scripture, Blessed Father this morning I continue singing ♫Word of God speak Would You fall down like rain Washing my eyes to see Your majesty To be still and know That You're in this place Please let me stay and rest In Your holiness Word of God Speak♫

Wash my eyes to see Your majesty, reminding me to love as You would have me love. Thank You Father. I love You so very much. You are so good. Thank You. Amen.
