WELCOME TO GOD FOCUS THIS MORNING

The title of today’s episode: Boldly Approach The Throne

I woke yesterday morning to a daily bible verse and short devotional. I have a dear friend that sends them to me daily.

The verse happened to be Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

I have always liked this verse because it says we can come boldly to God. We do not have to be in fear that he will reject us. He will extend his scepter to us every time. He wants to hear what we have to say.

Bold means not hesitating, or fearful in the face of possible danger. In times of kings, no one approached the king without a formal invitation. If they did there were assassins waiting to behead them on the spot. The only way these body guards did not take someone out was for the king to stretch out his scepter. It would be dangerous to approach the throne. But God says, we have access because we are his children, we can come boldly. Without fear and hesitation to make our requests  know to our King.

Then I turned on Prophet Julie Green, I listen to her almost every day. The first bible verse she read was, you guessed it, Hebrews 4:16. For the past few days she has been talking about petitioning the courts of heaven for God to return to us what the enemy has stolen. Then she listed a few things like: health, peace, joy, any part of our faith walk and our finances.

I had plans for the day but, I felt God really impress on me to intercede for our country. People are dying every day because of the evil that has taken over this nation. We were founded as one nation under God. That is with a big G not any of the false gods of this world which are little g’s.

As I sat in my office, the spirit of God came over me and I started weeping. He totally wrecked me. I have not been so wrecked by the Spirit of God since I attended a ministry conference over a year ago.  I could not stop crying and praying. I spent a long time praying for our nation, praying for lost family, for restoration of thing that needed to be restored. I felt compelled to keep praying for the needs I have on my prayer wall.

Once that anointing left me, I rushed to my computer to write my thoughts down.
I feel like God wants me to encourage you to come boldly to his throne. Take a list of what the enemy has taken from you. Petition the courts of heaven for what you feel needs to be restored to you.

We never know what our prayers may unlock. One example that comes to mind is the story of Hannah. She had a desire to have a child. She didn’t understand the profound effect that child would have on the world. Samuel did many things to restore their people. He returned righteousness to the house of God. He anointed kings, he gave them words of direction from the Lord.

We often have an overwhelming desire for something, but do not realize the heavenly impact of that prayer. All we know is that prayer burns within us. God will use our surrender and our prayer to further the kingdom.

She prayed, then she surrendered her son to the work of the Lord. Her prayer gave birth to the destiny of her nation. What prayer is within you that God wants you to boldly come and petition the court of heaven to receive? What may seem simple to you, may change the destiny of your nation. At the least it will make an impact on your life. Our God is a God of answered prayers.

Phil 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

This means to not worry or be anxious about things, but with thanksgiving we can come boldly to the throne and petition God for his help. We enter his presence with praise and thanksgiving. Once we have that connection is the time to ask God to move upon the situations of our lives.

Psalms 145:3 – Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

His greatness is unsearchable. In other words, it would take more than our lifetime to understand God. He is beyond fully knowing, but that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t try to understand his vast greatness.

Until next time,

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
