May Your Heart Rejoice as You Walk to the Music!
Heavenly Father, good morning. Thank you for history. Thank you for how records are kept. Thank you for being there throughout history. Thank you for being with Isaiah as he wrote the scripture you gave me to use for today’s prayer for Lindsey:
Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the Lord, to the mighty One of Israel. (Isaiah 30:29)
Lord, it’s me. I’m here… as always. I look forward to our time together. And now I am ready to lift up your daughter. Lord, I ask that you draw her to you. I ask that you lead her into your mountain. I ask that you let her know that you are there. Give her a song Lord. Put gladness into her heart. She is looking. She is searching. She is seeking you Lord. Let her find you. Let it be the new song you give to her. Let it be the gladness of heart in that song. Let that be her walk. Let her walk to your song Lord. And we will give you the glory. All the glory is yours. I ask this all in the name and authority of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen (more…)
Praise God with Violin and with Dance
Good Morning Heavenly Father! Thank you for the weather! Thank you for the ever changing weather. And thank you for the scripture for today’s prayer for your daughter Lindsey:
Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp. Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs. Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals. Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord. (Psalm 150:3-6)
Lord, I’m here again. I am ready to lift up your daughter you love again this day! I ask that you give her ways to praise you with violin and dance. Let her praise you along with all that have breath. Let her praise you along with all of creation! And we will give the glory to you. The glory is all yours Lord. I ask this in the name of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen (more…)
Let your violin sing praises to God – sing a new song to him!
Heavenly Father, good morning. Thank you for ears to hear. Thank you for music to hear. Thank you for the new songs. Thank you for stringed instruments that sing praises to you. And thank you for the scripture for today’s prayer for Lindsey:
I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee. (Psalm 144:9)
Lord, I’m here to sit with you again and lift up your daughter Lindsey. You have gifted her with extreme musical talent and skill. I ask that you give her a new song this week. I ask that you reveal to her a song that allows her violin to sing praises to you. And we will give the glory to you. The glory is all yours Lord. I ask this all in the name and authority of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen (more…)
Music is significant! Musicians were appointed by King David
Heavenly Father, good morning! Thank you for flexible and nimble fingers. Thank you for my ability to type so well. And thank you for the scripture that notes how musicians were so very important relating to praising God that the king appointed people as musicians and even those in charge of the sanctuary music:
And these are they whom David set over the service of song in the house of the Lord, after that the ark had rest. And they ministered before the dwelling place of the tabernacle of the congregation with singing, until Solomon had built the house of the Lord in Jerusalem: and then they waited on their office according to their order. (1 Chronicles 6:31-32)
Lord, I am here again. I am here to rest with you, to relax with you, to enjoy time with you. And now I would like to pray on behalf of your daughter Lindsey. Lord, you have gifted her with such wonderful talent and skill for music, dance and in particular, playing the violin. I ask that you set her into places where she can use her gifts to praise you Lord. I ask that you provide her with many opportunities to utilize her skill on her stringed instrument to worship you Lord. And all the glory is yours. The glory goes to God! I pray this in the name of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen (more…)
Who is in charge of the Songs of Thanksgiving?
Good Morning Heavenly Father. Thank you for words that can be set in the form of poetry. Thank you for the meters and the rhymes, even those passed down from former times. And thank you for the scripture to base my prayer for Lindsey today:
Moreover the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, which was over the thanksgiving, he and his brethren. (Nehemiah 12:8)
Lord, I’m here again. I came to sit with you. I look forward to this joy each day. And today I am ready to begin my daily prayer for your daughter you love. Lindsey, it is interesting that praising God and offering him thanksgiving with music and song was so very important that scriptures tell us about the special people who were in charge of the thanksgiving songs! Today I pray that songs of thanksgiving and praise would become more and more part of your life. Just as music is part of you and part of your life, I pray that songs of praise and thanksgiving would also be part of your life. I pray that God would expand his many musical gifts in you to include the ability to fully integrate his Word and his music as part of everyday life. May your music open the eyes as well as the ears of those who hear it and may it be integral with your offering it as a song of thanksgiving to your God. And all the glory is his. The glory goes to God. I pray this in the name and authority of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen (more…)
God’s statutes can be your songs along your journey
Good Morning Heavenly Father. Thank you for the very bright colors on the birds. The small bright yellow birds are quite beautiful sitting on the bird feeder just outside our window. And thank you for the scripture for today that speaks of having your statutes as songs along the way on our journey:
Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage. (Psalm 119:54)
Lord, I am here again to lift up Lindsey, your daughter you love. I ask that you fill her heart with the love of your statutes and that they would be like songs to her. Let your Word be like music in her heart as she journeys around the world. Let others notice it Lord. And the glory goes to you. All the glory is yours Lord. I pray this in the name and authority of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen (more…)
(U) Unnamed Musical Women – the many happy women of Israel
Lindsey, I pray that you would be just like the many unnamed women of Israel who came out of the cities singing and dancing to the Lord. They played instruments and danced with all their hearts. I see this in you and pray that the Lord would show you ways to continue in this!
Heavenly Father, good morning! Thank you for the beautiful trees. Thank you for the bushes. And thank you for the flowers and plants. Thank you for all that you set in front of our eyes! And thank you for the scriptures regarding the MANY unknown, unnamed musical women for the letter U today:
And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of musick. And the women answered one another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands. (1 Samuel 18:6-7)
AND
And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. (Exodus 15:20-21)
Lord, here I am, ready to begin the prayer for today for your daughter! Lindsey, I thank the LORD for the talent and skill that he gifted you with. I thank YOU for knowing to go out and use those gifts. And I pray that the Lord would provide you with many more opportunities to sing, dance and play music to him on your own, with your family and friends and for crowds of people. I pray that you would have the courage to play to him then. I pray that he would give you words when you need them and that he would relieve any anxiety that may try to creep up on you. And all the glory goes to God. The glory is all his. I pray this in the name of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen (more…)
(N) You have a New Song
Good Morning Heavenly Father! I saw several kinds of birds the other day. Thank you for taking care of them even in the middle of a freezing cold winter! Thank you for the many birds and animals that you created and watch over. Thank you for creating each of us in your image and watching over us as well. And thank you for the scripture to use for my prayer this day for the letter N:
And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord. (Psalm 40:3)
Lord, I’m here again… I came to sit with you and to lift up your daughter Lindsey. She has music in her and expresses it in ways that encourage many people. So today I ask that you teach her a new song, that you put a new song in her heart, and that you help her to express it for others to hear. And we will give you the glory. All the glory is yours Lord. I ask this in the name and authority of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen (more…)
(S) God is my Strength, my Song, my Salvation
Heavenly Father, good morning! I welcome the new day with you. As always, I can start this day anew, start it fresh, with no worry about where I was yesterday. Thank you for the sun that rises each day. Thank you for the moon and the stars at night. Thank you for the world you created! I praise you… I exalt you! And I thank you for the scripture for today’s prayer:
The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him. (Exodus 15:2)
Lord, yes, it is me. I am here to pray for Lindsey, the daughter you love. You are her strength and her song. I pray that today you remind her that you are her salvation. Fill her with even more strength directly from you. Lord, be a sweet song for her today. Be the melody and give her the harmony. Let the room around her reverberate with your joyous music. And we will give you the glory. All the glory is yours Lord. I pray this in the name of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen. (more…)
(R) God Rejoices
Heavenly Father – Yay! From Q for quiet to R for rejoicing. Thank you for revealing bits of yourself to us in your Word! It seems Paul understood this when writing to the Philippians when he told them to rejoice always. We should rejoice because you rejoice! Thank you for giving us so many ways to rejoice. With singing, with dance, with laughter. Thank you for the scripture to use in my prayer this day:
The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing. (Zephaniah 3:17)
Lord, I come here before you with joy and with singing. I come here to joyfully lift up your daughter you love, to lift up Lindsey, your daughter as you sing joyfully over her. And I pray that she, in turn, will rejoice with you today. Let her rest in your love as you calm all her fears. You are mighty, Lord, but you are singing and rejoicing as well. Let Lindsey feel your delight in her today. Let her be inspired by your joy and your singing. Rather than put this inspiration into words, let her put it to music. Let her music resound through the room and into the heavens. And we will give you the glory Lord. All the glory is yours. I pray this in the name of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen. (more…)
