Can You Imagine?
Can you imagine being at the first real Praise Meeting after Jesus was born?
Out in the fields at night the shepherds were protecting their flock of sheep and an Angel appeared and then many other angels joined with them and the Glory of God surrounded all of them.
The Angel was announcing that the Shepherd, the True Shepherd of our souls, the Prince of Peace, the Messiah, our Savior was born!
He was born in a stable, a place where poor destitute people would look to find shelter.
He wasn’t born in a palace like a rich ruler would be.
He came down to be one with the lowest of people, the homeless, the poor.
He is close to them.
He is one with them.
He can identify with them.
Whatever you do to the least of these, you do as unto Him.
They say of Him that He had no place to lay his head.
He spent much time alone out in the night in the fields communing with His Father. Alone and at peace with the Most Magnificent One.
He walked and talked with Father God in the cool of the day.
He was humble and meek but also strong and mighty in faith and has set an example for us to follow.
Prince of Peace, meet with us always in the cool of the day.
Let us experience being one with You always.
Jesus is full of Compassion, Love, Humility and Forgiveness.
Like a Lamb led to the slaughter, He died in our place to pay the penalty for all of the sins of the world so we can freely partake of this great Gift of His saving Grace.
Jesus, Lamb of God, have mercy on us for being proud, independent, apathetic, and distracted from the purposes that You called us to.
Without Your great grace we are dead. Bring life where deadness and apathy reign.
Set us ablaze with the fire of Your love.
Give us the same burden You have.
Pray through us, Holy Spirit, Your perfect Prayers from The Heart of The Father!
Jesus, live Your life, Your mission through us… to heal the sick, set free the lame, open blind eyes, raise the dead.
Pour out Your miraculous works through us.
Raise us up to live big in You.
Flow, Amazing Grace, through us I pray!
These signs shall follow those who believe…. they shall cast out devils.
They shall speak with new tongues. They shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them.
They shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. (Mark 16:17-18)
May this be our testimony, I pray. In Jesus’ Name!

Yolanda Ballard of At The Father’s Feet website, shares with you, the body of Christ, the words she’s received quietly sitting at The Father’s feet. I believe Jesus set the example for us to follow. Whenever He could He would come apart from the busyness of the world so that He could quiet Himself before The Father, for that is where He received direction and strength to carry out His will.
Amen!
Amen.
