Holy Prayer House
We
are Special People
For how then will it be known that your
people and I have found grace in your sight, except you go with us? So we shall
be separate, your people and I, from all the people who are upon the
face of the earth.” Exodus 33:16
We are special people, not because we
are from special race, not because of our education or wealth; we are special,
because the Lord is with us. How far, we understood this, and excited about
this; like Moses. Bible says, we are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a
holy nation, a people for His own possession;
(1Peter 2:9). The Immanuel, who is always with us (Matthew 1:23), as we are His own
children.
We are relaxing in aeroplane, though,
we don’t know the pilot, we are relaxing in the bus, though, we don’t know the
driver; why don’t we relax in our life, while we know that the Lord, who is
with us, controls everything in our life.
The Lord Jehovah Jireh, (who provides) is
with us. The young lions suffer want and
hunger; but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing (Psalms
34:10).
And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in
Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19). He who did not spare
his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him
graciously give us all things? (Romans 8:32)
The Lord Jehovah Sabaoth (The Lord of
Hosts) who protects is with us. The Lord of
hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our
refuge (Psalm 46:11). He will not allow
your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, He who keeps
Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is your
keeper; The Lord is your shade at your right hand. The sun shall
not strike you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord shall preserve
you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul (Psalms
121).
The Lord who listens to our prayers is
always with us. For what great
nation is there that has God so near to it, as
the Lord our God is to us, for whatever reason we
may call upon Him? (Deuteronomy 4:7).
The
Lord Jehovah Rapha (The Lord That Heals) who heals, removes all our sickness,
is with us. … For I am the Lord who heals you (Exodus
15:26).
…And by His stripes we
are healed. (Isaiah
53:5)
The Lord Jehovah
Shalom (The Lord Is Peace) is with us. The Lord lift
up His countenance upon you, And give you peace. (Numbers
6:26) Peace I
leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to
you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid (John 14:27)
The Lord Jehovah-Raah (The Lord My
Shepherd) who leads, is with us. He
makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters (Psalm
23:2). I
will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with
my eye (Psalms 32:8).
One old song is flashing in my memory.
“When my Lord is alive, what I lack in my life”. My friends, Our Lord is alive.
The Lord, who is with you, is alive, Loving, Powerful and caring. Cheer up.
So you are special…
Excerpts from the sermon preached at
HPH.
Prayer: Lord, I am your child. I
understand the truth that I am special, as you are with me. I would rejoice in you today. Amen.
