[Prayer: Michael Freeland Miller]
The Lord spoke a phrase to my heart before they sang that song. I wanna share that phrase with you because I believe the Lord wants to give you something this morning
And if you left this room, and you took away something from this morning, the Lord wants you to leave in faith. We walk by faith, and He wants to author faith in your heart. And I think this song puts words to the season that many of you are in. And the phrase that I heard that I really believe the Lord wants to write upon your heart, He said, “Tell my people that thеy’re not waiting for me. Tell my pеople they’re waiting with me.”
And I feel some of you are waiting. You’re in a season of waiting. You’re in a season of process. And you’re wondering where the Lord is. And I want you to know that He’s in the process, that He’s with you. I think of Mary and Martha waiting for the Lord when Lazarus was in the Tomb, and He came and He wept with them. He came and sat with them. He met them where they were. And I just see the Lord sitting with you in the midst of the process
“Tribulation produces perseverance; perseverance, character; character, hope”. But tribulation should produce hope. And some of you are persevering. And I just believe the Lord wants to touch your heart with faith that He’s in the waiting with you
He hasn’t forgotten you; He hasn’t forsaken you. He promised to be with you no matter what you’re facing. And I believe the Lord wants to infuse hope into your heart, that the presence of Jesus is here to author that in this moment of time. And so, if that’s you, would you just stand to your feet? If you’re like, “man, He is authoring something in my heart”, I just want you to put your hands out like this. I’m gonna pray for you
Lord, we trust You this morning. We trust Your Lordship, that You are Lord of lords, you are King of kings. You are high above it all. And Lord, we entrust our season to You, we entrust our perspective to You, we entrust our fears, we entrust our anxieties, we entrust our reasonings, we entrust our calculating. Father, we surrender once again. Today, we choose faith. Today, we choose surrender. Today, we humble ourselves beneath Your Mighty arm, knowing, Lord, that You will exalt, You will lift up, Lord. That You will make a way where there seems to be no way. You are the author, perfecter, sustainer of our faith, Lord. We entrust ourselves to You once again. Lord, where reasoning, where fear, where things have overshadowed our vision, Lord, we choose faith. We do not walk by sight; we walk by faith this morning
Faith in who You are. Faith in what You’re able to do. Faith that You see us and know us. Faith, Lord. Faith, Lord, that we are Yours and You are ours, Lord. Faith that You are the God of today, that You are the God of tomorrow, that You are the God of every circumstance, every relationship, Lord. Every [?]. You’re the God of those things. And nothing can separate us from You this morning
And we choose faith, Lord. We choose faith. We choose faith, God. We say we are going to be people of faith. We are going to trust You, we’re going to yield to You, and we believe, Lord, we will taste the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living God. So, may hope arise in the hearts of Your people this morning. May hope arise in the hearts of Your people this morning, Lord. May hope be an anchor for our soul. Though the winds may blow, though the storms make come, we are anchored in Your heart. We are anchored in faith, knowing that this season does not define anything. You are the definer of our lives. And we say, “We trust You”. Just tell the Lord, “We trust You”
(Praying in tongues)
If someone’s standing up around you, would just lay your hands on them and pray for them? Let’s minister each other for the next minute or so. Will we just be the body to empower, the body to speak words of life, words of comfort, words that edify?
Let Hope arise! He’s the God of our hope and He’s your God. He’s the God of our hope and He’s your God. He’s the God of our hope and He’s your God
We are people of hope. We are people of promise. We are people that have been marked by the God of our hope. And we declare hope into the hopeless this morning. Those lacking hope, the God of hope is present. Those that need hope, He will source your heart with hope. He’s done it before, He’ll do it again. He’s done it before, He’ll do it again. He’s done it before, He’ll do it again
Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Author faith, Lord. Author faith, God. The just walk by faith. We believe! Come on, let faith arise, let hope emerge. You’re the God of our hope. You’re the God of our hope. You’re the God of our hope
