Danny Gokey – Stay Strong

LYRICS

I’ve been waitin’ for breakthrough, I’ve been prayin’ for change
I know You’ll work it all for good but how long will it take?
I’ve been asking for healing and I’m not gonna lie
I’m ready for the miracle, God, let it be this time

But if I never see the promise on this side of the grave
My hope might be shaken but my faith will never break
Because I know the day is coming when You’ll right all of the wrong
So I’ll praise You in the waiting and my faith will stay strong
Yeah, ooh

God, You taught me to trust You, You showed me how to believe
You’re the author and the finisher of what You start in me
So I’m not gonna doubt it, I’m gonna hold onto peace
‘Cause if I have You and nothing else, I still have everything

‘Cause if I never see the promise on this side of the grave
My hope might be shaken but my faith will never break
Because I know the day is coming when You’ll right all of the wrong
So I’ll praise You in the waiting and my faith will stay strong

I’ll count it joy when I am tested
‘Cause You bring beauty from my pain, it’s never wasted

But if I never see the promise on this side of the grave
My hope might be shaken but my faith will never break
Because I know the day is coming when You’ll right all of the wrong
So I’ll praise You in the waiting and my faith will stay strong
Because I know the day is coming when You’ll right all of the wrong
So I’ll praise You in the waiting and my faith will stay strong
Will stay strong

When The Spirit Takes Over

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered (Romans 8:26).

If as a Christian, you’ve come to a point in your life where it seems everything is now a drag, you don’t seem to be making the kind of progress you desire or that’s expected, there’s a way out! Maybe you’ve even tried everything you know to do, but there’s still no commensurate progress, don’t be frustrated. You can have a complete turnaround today.

First, understand that life is spiritual and except you operate from the realm of the Spirit, you can’t achieve meaningful success. Our opening verse lets us know that we can take charge of our lives and situations from the realm of the Spirit by praying in the Spirit.

When we pray in tongues, the Spirit Himself gives us utterance in spiritual vocabulary. Beyond this utterance in tongues, we have deep sighs or groanings as in the opening verse: “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered” (Romans 8:26).

This is a better and higher way to pray. When you’re faced with serious crises in your life, it may get to the point where you don’t know or have words with which to express yourself or deal with the situation. At that point, you might want to just get on the floor before the Lord, in absolute dependence on the Holy Spirit, until He takes over for you. Hallelujah!

With these groanings, the Holy Spirit makes intercession for you and God’s people. You can learn and train yourself in this by giving more time and attention to prayer; yielding yourself to God. These are Kingdom secrets given to us from the Word, for us to live victoriously in life. Glory to God!

PRAYER / CONFESSION

The circumstances don’t matter. I win by the power of the Holy Spirit. As I speak in tongues even now, the Holy Spirit takes over my vocal cords and gets me in sync with the will of the Father; His visions, promptings, ideas and thoughts are clear to me as He leads me in victory and glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Profit Okebe – Lord I am available

Lyrics:

Lord I apply for Your Grace 

Help me not to be a disgrace 

To You Jesus and to my generation..(2x).

Lord I want to be everything 

That You’ve designed for me 

That You’ve ordained for me 

That You’ve destined for me….. (2x).

(Chorus.)

Lord I’m available and I am ready

Use me Lord to glorify Your Name…. 4x

Make me an army, an army for You

On fire for You, to win souls for You

Make me a soldier, a soldier for You 

On fire for You, to win souls for You..(2x)

(Chorus.)

Lord I’m available and I am ready

Use me Lord to glorify Your Name….4x

Living In The Spirit

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit (Galatians 5:25).

As Christians, we don’t go in and out of the Spirit; we live in the Spirit. Our theme verse makes it clear: it says, “Because we live in the Spirit, we should walk in the Spirit.” There’re two common expressions that you find in the Bible for being in the Spirit. One is to be in a vision or trance where your physical senses are more or less suspended. However, that’s a temporal experience.

The other and more important expression of being in the Spirit is being born into the Spirit, where you become aware and alive to the spirit realm through the Word and the Holy Ghost. You live in that consciousness even though you’re in this world and your physical senses are conscious of your natural environment.

In the latter, you’re living with the mindset of the heavenly being that you are. You see the same things with other people, but you have a different interpretation and a different understanding. You’re Spirit-ruled; you see things the Kingdom way; the Word of God dictates your actions and responses to life and everything around you. You dominate your environment with the atmosphere of the Spirit. Hallelujah!

PRAYER / CONFESSION

Thank you, precious Holy Spirit, for being my peculiar atmosphere and advantage in life. You’ve made my life so different and beautiful. I rule and dominate my world with the atmosphere of joy, peace, success and victory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
