Now Is Your Time

Today
Not tomorrow
Not next week
Not next month
Not next year
Today
Today is the day of salvation
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for
Today you will be with me in paradise
The kingdom of God is within you
Consecrate yourselves today
This is the day that the Lord has made
Today
What are you waiting for?
Why do you not speak?
Why do you not go?
Why do you not give?
Today is your day
Today is the only day God has given you.
There is no guarantee of tomorrow
Yesterday is gone
Today is your day
Now is your time

Just be Still

When the wind is howling all around
And the snow is blowing by
This is not the time to doubt he's there
Just be still

When the trial of life surround you
And it seems your going down
This is not the time to worry
Just be still

When you just can't find your faith
And you feel your life is lost
This is not the time to give up
Just be still

When you’re sick or hurt in body
And you feel left all alone
This is not the time to doubt Him
Just be still

Be still in His presence
He is always there
Waiting to uphold you
In the palm of His hand
Don't fight your situation
Don't try to make it right
Just fall into His loving arms
And just be still

I Can’t Think About a Time

Leave a reply 
I can't think about a time that you were not right there
To hear my every cry and hear my every prayer
I can't think about a time that you weren't there with me.

I can't think about a that your provision failed
You meet my ever need, and fill my longing soul
I can't think about a time that you did not provide

Where could I go if not before your throne
What can I do but worship you alone
You are always there to pick me up and put me on my feet
So I can walk with you forever
Til I reach my final home

I can't think about a time I could not turn to you
To ask a simple prayer, to bless a friend or foe
I can't think about a time my prayers did not reach you.

Where could I go if not before your throne
What can I do but worship you alone
You are always there to pick me up and put me on my feet
So I can walk with you forever
Til I reach my final home

The day is coming soon when I will be with you
The answers to my prayers will be flowing from your throne
And all those gone before me will greet me at the gate
They stood faithful on this earth and I'll never be alone
Where could I go if not before your throne

What can I do but worship you alone
You are always there to pick me up and put me on my feet
So I can walk with you forever
Til I reach my final home

Do You Hear Him

Leave a reply 
Morning darkness
Stillness in the air
Quiet all around
A perfect time to hear God
Walking through the moon shadows
Praying for my friends
Stars shine bright above me
A perfect time to hear God
Do you hear Him?
Gently He speaks to you
Longing to have you hear
Longing to catch your ear
Do you hear Him?
Calling out your name
Wanting to be close to you
Whispering His love to you
He is there in the darkness
He is there in the stillness
He is there in the quiet of the night
He is there in the shadows
He is there in the starlight
He is there when life doesn't seem just right
Do you hear Him?
Stop to listen
As He calls you from above
Do you hear Him?
Stop to listen
Let Him speak His words of love

When I Believe

Leave a reply 
When the battle begins, there’s a struggle within
I believe that in the end I will win
I know He is with me
I know His strength keeps me
All things are possible when I believe

When the battle is raging, and the enemy’s engaging
I believe that my faith will sustain me
I know He is with me
I know His strength keeps me
All things are possible when I believe

CHORUS
When I believe, mountains will tremble
When I believe, storms will subside
When I believe, in Him I abide
No weapon or stronghold  
No devil from below 
Can ever defeat me when I believe

When the battle is over then I will discover
There’s nothing too hard for my God to defend
I know He’s been with me
I know His strength kept me
All things are possible when I believe

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Believe that He lived
Believe that He died
Believe that He worse from the grave and He reigns over all

CHORUS

The Lord Is

Leave a reply 
The Lord is my refuge. 
When trouble surrounds me I can run to him. 
He will take me in his arms and shield me from the enemy. 
He will give me comfort in the midst of a storm, and He will guide me through it

The Lord is my strength.
In times of weakness He will enable me. In times of sickness He will heal me. 
In times when I am weary He will take me on his shoulders and carry me through.

The Lord is my fortress. 
He will raise up a standard against my enemy and will never be defeated. 
He will guard me and protect me when the enemy attacks. 
His word is my shield against the arrows that the enemy will fling at me.

The Lord is my deliverer. 
When I am in a battle he will see me through. 
When I am in a storm he will calm the winds and the waves. 
When trouble seems to overtake me he will cause me to overcome
.
The Lord is my salvation. 
He calls me in righteousness. 
He sanctifies me and makes me whole. He heals me, comforts me, gives me peace, takes away my sin, and build me a mansion in heaven.

I will forever praise Him.
I will forever glorify His name.
I will forever testify to His great mercy and grace. 
He is more than enough for me

Unexpected, God Sows Up

Unexpected, God shows up.
Men building a tower in Babel
Hoping to reach the heavens
Exalting themselves as God's
Unexpected, God shows up
Confuses their language 
The tower fails
Israel escaping Egyptian bondage
Blocked by the Red Sea
Pharaohs army pursues
Unexpected, God shows up
The sea parts
Pharaohs army destroyed
Jerusalem under siege
Lepers cry why sit we here to die
Go out to the enemy camp
Unexpected, God shows up
Enemy runs in fright
Israel is spared
Shepherds watching their flocks
Silent night, Holy night
All is calm, stars are bright
Unexpected, God shows up
The Savior is born
In Bethlehem
Trust in the Lord with all your heart
Leave all your worries to Him
When it seems that all is lost
Unexpected, God shows up
He always knows
What's best for you

Rocks Will Sing

Lift your voices, shout your praise
It is Jesus name we raise
Blessed Hosannas, hail the King
As we lift our praise to Him

Enter in, please enter in
To the presence of the King
Worship Him, oh worship Him
Loud hosannas shout and sing

Worthy, worthy is His name
Blessed Jesus, humble Lamb
Sent to save the world from sin
Won't you let Him enter in?

Lift your praise or rocks will sing
Loud hosannas to the King
Shout out loud with joyous dance
He is stretching out His hands

Lift your voices, shout your praise
It is Jesus name we raise
Blessed Hosannas, hail the King
As we lift our praise to Him

In Your Closet

Leave a reply 
A simple conversation
A request of prayer
A cry for help
You are chosen by God
To be an intercessor
To bow your head in prayer
For those who confide in you
You are chosen by God
To quietly pray
And seek His face
And keep the trust of a friend
Do you take this charge solemnly?
Do you keep that trust?
Or do you share it with others,
Supposedly enlisting their prayers?
When a friend shares a sorrow,
A hurt or a need with you
It is only with you - 
If they want others to know
They will tell them.
You pray!
You intercede to God for them
You bring their request before the Lord
Do it in your closet,
Not for all to see.
For this is the high calling off God
To be an intercessor.
