“To everything there is a season.
A time for every purpose under heaven.” Ecclesiastes 3:1
Thank You Lord
For Seasons of You and me
Thank You that I have learned to dance with You in my destiny.
Thank You Lord
That I have learned to laugh
And embrace life and love with You
Thank You Father
For making everything beautiful in its time.
Thank You for placing eternity in my heart
Thank You for teaching me how to rejoice in You
No matter what the circumstances or seasons in my life
Thank You for giving me Your Joy. Lord, which is my strength
Thank You for giving me peace in the midst of seasons and storms
Thank You for Your Gift, Your Son, Jesus
Thank You for His Amazing Grace and Love
For Your Holy Spirit Resurrection Power and Glory
Thank You for all the Seasons and times of my days in You
Thank You for Your promise to draw nearer to me
As I draw nearer to You
Seeking You with all my heart, spirit, soul and mind
Thank You for the beauty of Your Creation,
Worthy are You My Lord and My God,
To receive glory and honor and praise,
For You did create all things,
ELOHIM, our Creator
Thank You for my divine design in You
And the purpose for which You created me
When I see the vastness of the oceans and the seas
I know in part the vastness of Your Love for me
Thank You for the ebb and flow of Your Holy Spirit
That encompasses and enraptures me
Thank You for all the seasons, sunrises and sunsets of my days
Thank You that as I look unto the mountains and hills
From whence cometh my help
I know that You are God and there is no other
I remember You are EL ELYON, the God most high
And the all-sufficient one, EL SHADDAI
Thank You that when I drink of the water of salvation You give
You have promised that I shall never thirst
And that the water You give so freely
Becomes a well of living water springing up to eternal life
Flowing forth out of me
To heal others, spiritually, emotionally and physically
You are my rock, my fortress and my refuge
My present help in time of trouble
Everything I ever need can be found in You,
The all-sufficient one, God Almighty.
I acknowledge You and bow down before You
You are My Lord and my Master,
My sweet ADONAI
Thank You that as I consider the lilies of the fields
They remind me that You ARE, JEHOVAH-JIREH, My Provider
And You My God have promised to supply all my needs
According to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus
In Your omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence You provide
As I walk gently and humbly before You Lord
I lift You up, JEHOVAH-NISSI, My Lord and My banner
You have given me Your banner
That it may be displayed because of the truth
And Your Beloved may be delivered
Save with Thy right hand and answer us!
You give us Sweet Victory in Jesus
So when I run, I am not afraid
For You O God are with me
Your rod and staff comfort me
Because You are JEHOVAH-RAAH,
My Lord and My tender Shepherd
I kneel before You Lord, my Maker
For You are my God and my Shepherd
I shall not want
You gently lead me into green pastures
Lovingly carrying me in Your arms
Gathering me to You
Restoring my soul
Making me whole
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days and seasons of my life
For You are with me to comfort me
You will never forsake me or leave me
And You will never let me go
Thank You Lord for Your perfect Seasons
Your perfect purpose and will
For You are all I need
Thank You My Lord, JEHOVAH-MEKODDISHKEM
For sanctifying me
For bearing me on eagles’ wings and bringing me up to Yourself
You have told me if I obey Your voice and keep Your covenants
Then you shall be My own possession
For the earth is Yours
And You have promised that we will be a kingdom of priests
And a holy nation
You Oh God are most holy
I enter into Your Name and into Your rest
Thank You for giving Your heavenly hosts of angels charge over me
And thank You for carrying me
Thank You for hiding me in the cleft of Your rock
For Overshadowing me
You are JEHOVAH-SABAOTH
The Lord of hosts
Thank You for all the doors of my life You have opened
As You have called me to come and enter
You have opened up endless possibilities
Countless opportunities
Miracles, signs and wonders
When in perfect submission, obedience and surrender I have turned to You
You have taught me to pray without ceasing and wait upon You
Wait for Your perfect timing
Then enter the Open Heaven
And stand, walk, run and battle in great faith
My battle is Yours as You rule over all the armies of Heaven
You Oh Lord of hosts are with me
You are my stronghold
And I run into the strong tower of Your name for safety
I will not fear though the earth and seasons may change
And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea
Though the earths waters roar and the oceans foam
In You I live and move and have my being
In You alone
Thank You great Lord of Heavenly Hosts
In You I find Sweet Sanctuary for my soul, My Home
Thank You for helping me to overcome my past
JEHOVAH-SHALOM my Lord of Peace
As I look only toward the future with hope and assurance
Because in You I have peace unsurpassable
Because greater are You within me
Than he that is in the world
So in Your Presence and peace no matter what storms may come
You give me great confidence and courage
Because You have overcome the world
In You I am more than a conqueror
In a right relationship with You I overcome
Thank You for Your promise to never leave or forsake me
JEHOVAH-SHAMMA, My Lord Who is always here beside me
And that You never change
Jesus, You are the same yesterday, today and for all of my tomorrows
And You will never leave my side
Whom do I have but You
And besides You I desire nothing else on earth
You Oh God are the strength of my heart
And my portion forever
Thank You that you are my blessed future and my hope
That You are my Friend and always walking beside me
Establishing my footsteps in Your Word and in Your Ways
So I may walk in the counsel of the ungodly
Thank You for filling and indwelling me by Your Holy Spirit
Your manifested Holy Spirit my living God
Thank You that You are Who You say You are
And You will do what You say You will do
Your covenant promises
Thank You Jesus that You are the same
The Alpha and Omega
The Beginning and the End
Thank You for helping me to bend with the wind
In all of life’s ebb and flow
Thank You that You are JEHOVAH-RAPHA
The Lord that healeth
And that by Your supernatural resurrected power
My inner spirit, my earthen vessel,
Is being restored and renewed day by day
Heal me, O Lord and I will be healed
For Thou art my praise
Thank You that Jesus was wounded and pierced through for my transgressions
And by His stripes I am healed
Thank You for eternal Salvation
And Redemption
By the precious unblemished, spotless blood of the Lamb
Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ
Thank You that all who believe in Him
And receive Him
Will be called Your children
And have eternal life
Because of Jesus’ measureless righteousness and purity
JEHOVAH-TSIDKENU
You are My Lord, My Righteousness
Though at times I dwell in darkness
You Oh Lord are a light for me
You are a God of all my seasons
The ebbs and flows of all my days
Thank You for all the hope in these seasons
Of You and me.
In this New Season of my life
Thank You for placing a holy hunger and thirst within me
A new heart on which You have written
Forgiveness for all my sins
You have promised to remember them no more
You have thrown them into
The Sea of Forgetfulness
Thank You that my ways are before Your eyes
And You watch all my paths
EL ROI, my God who sees
Thank You for opening up my spiritual eyes to see
Your Sevenfold Spirit
For putting into my heart, the awe, reverence and fear of You
So that I will never turn away from You
Thank You for Wisdom. Knowledge Understanding
Counsel and Might.
So that I may know You more
And the fullness and righteousness of Christ
Thank You for empowering, equipping me
To further Your Kingdom
And to bring Your Kingdom down to earth
So that I might spread Your Good News Gospel and love
Your Spirit of Truth
Throughout the earth
Thank You Jesus for giving me Your Shekinah Glory
Your Father God gave to You
As You promised to do
Thank You EL OLAM
My everlasting God
YOU ARE
YAHWEH
JEHOVAH, My Lord
Precious women of God
I look forward to Jesus’ our Lord and Savior
Coming again
As the Mighty King of kings
And Lord of lords
To rule over all the nations of this world
When He returns then His Word to His people will be fulfilled
We are in the heart of God
And He has longed for us since the beginning of time
He will wipe away every tear
There will be no more seasons of mourning, crying or pain
Because He who sits on the Throne at the right hand of God, His Father, has
said,
“Behold I am making all things new.
Write, for these words are faithful and true.” Revelation 21:1-5
I continue to thank God for allowing me to write messages of His Love for
ASPIRE MINISTRIES, encouraging each of you on your journey into the heart of
God. I praise God for Janis Smith, my Co-Founder and Associate Director and
the team of women writers, as we all flow with the ebb and tides of this season
to reach out to you. We are Guardians of the Gate, called to pass a mantle of
love from one generation to the next. We pray that as we touch your hearts,
and send you messages of Jesus’ love, that you will find new hope and
assurance during this season of your life, no matter who you are, or what you
are going through. We encourage you to reach out to Him, the one who loves you
with an everlasting love.
Soon the day of the Lord’s returning is coming precious ones.
Until then, continue to call upon His Name
That He may be glorified
Live a life of fullness and righteousness in Christ Jesus alone,
Whatever season of life you are in
Just thank God, no matter what your circumstances
Wrap yourselves in God’s Glorious Garment of Praise
This sacrifice of praise releases the supernatural power of God’s Holy Spirit
To do greater signs, healings and wonders
Far greater things than you ever dreamed or imagined
So God will be lifted up and glorified
And those that witness these miracles will be drawn to
Our great and mighty God
Our Creator
And to His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior
Our Salvation, Redeemer, Deliverer and Healer
We are to show God’s Love so all men will know we are His Disciples
So that all men will be drawn unto Him.
And be saved by Jesus’ Amazing Grace
“And those who know Thy name
Will put their trust in Thee;
For Thou, O Lord, hast not forsaken those who seek Thee.” Psalm 9:10
“Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things
will be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33
Pray without ceasing precious women. Pray as Jesus taught in The Lord's Prayer,
“Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done. On earth as it is in Heaven.” God
wants to bring His Kingdom down to earth in these latter days as never before.
Stay in God’s Word. And lift up your heads and let the King of Glory and Love
come into your hearts. Who is the King of Glory? The Lord strong and mighty!
In Worship and Praise He inhabits His people. We are the Habitation of God!
And we give Him all honor, all power and glory. Forever. Amen.
