My Prayer; My Cry To The Lord

(This one I wrote about 5months ago)

I finally know the meaning of being Blessed and Highly Favored. I love the Lord and he's heard my cry. God just continue to bless me and show how real you are and through me others may see your grace. Only you know where my mind was because you and you alone went and got it and saved it from myself. I was head down towards a bottomless pit but you lifted me out of the pit of the hell I was headed to, and gave me foundation.
Your name I cannot stop praising, the things of the world I gave up and let go for you are all worth it. At the end of the day it was you and you alone that created me and showed me all your love and mercy. When man has given up on me and told me I wouldn’t make it and love was something I could never feel; You stepped in and gave me a second chance, for you are the God of a second chance. When I felt I couldn’t make it you stepped in and said yes you can, for you are a God of yes. I never knew what love was until I accepted your love, for you are the God of love.
My heart cries, my heart sings, and it’s all the joy of the Lord. For the joy of the Lord has given me the strength to love my enemies, and transgressors. I finally get it God; How can I love you who I cannot see but hate any man who I can see stand before me. Regardless of what I’ve done your word says you still love me but not my sin. So if my desire is to be more like your son Jesus Christ then I must love every being before me and beyond for they are your children just as I am.
Lord I can’t stop and I won’t stop praising you till they day I die and be with you in heaven. And according to your word as long as I live in your will, I will not die but have eternal life and live more abundantly. A life free of sin, hurt, pain, and evil, Lord my God, my true father I am done asking questions, and I have no doubt of whom you are. I will no longer allow the nescience of myself and others get in the way of the blessing you have in store for me. I’m ready for you to use me to serve your kingdom and do as you ask. So God here and now I say to you take me as I am and create in me a new clean heart, and o Lord renew my spirit within and take not your Holy spirit from me. Restore to me your joy and I shall worship and proclaim you as my God.
Keep me and protect me, for the devil is busy trying to destroy what you’ve created for good and use for evil. O Lord my God keep me, protect me. There an old song that says “Tell me who can stand be before us when we call on God’s great name; For in the name of Jesus we have the Victory.”
Lord I declare ‘Victory’ because your word says I’ve won this battle long before I was conceived, and all I have to do is call on your name and proclaim your as my God and ‘Victory would be mine today and forever.
I am not worthy of your grace and mercy but you alone are worthy of my praise.
Amen!
