|| all is for his glory ||
do
you ever marvel at the way god seems to weave things together, and connects us
to different things? i feel like that is my life...everyday! once again i sit
here amazed at how the lord moves. in the past few days as i was putting
together a video to share with you all of how the lord is at work in the
nations, i got somewhat sidetracked - which is VERY unsual for me :) and went
off on a tangent to discover the writer of a song that will forever remind me
(and many others) of this season of life and this discipleship training
school.
the
song is called “all is for your glory” and it tells of how our whole life is
for the glory of god, that we can go and be put anywhere because life is all
about bringing glory to god. through my searching out the writer i found an
article that she wrote. in the article she talks about when she was part of a
team worshiping and praying together in kansas city, at the international house
of prayer (ihop), during this particular prayer set they were praying from
psalm 84 as their foundation for prayer. during this prayer set the lord spoke
to her something that changed her life forever, he spoke that it didn’t matter
where she was geographically, whether it be at home with her family or singing
on a prayer set, that the important thing is that all that her life is brings god
glory! resulting in the songs inception. this song has been a constant
reminder, encouragement and challenge to me this year!
as
i read over the part of the article about psalm 84 it seemed to almost jump out
at me..i kept thinking why does this resonate so well with me? then i
realised..that psalm 84 was the exact passage that the lord spoke to me months
ago for this dts. i couldn’t believe it. the song that was a theme for my life
in this season was written out of the passage the lord spoke to me as the
foundation of our school!
my
prayer is that you will be encouraged that it doesn’t matter where you are in
the world or what you are doing but be reminded that god’s glory is in you and
you have the power and influence to make a difference exactly where you are!

ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing video, Lori! It's awesome to see how the Lord gives his very best when you answer his call. "I will show you great and mighty things which you have not seen"!! I had to re-watch and pause to see what that was walking on the line!
