Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – 29.11.21 – I See You

I care about the one. I leave the 99 to go after the one. The one who is lost, the one who is rejected, the one who is full of fear. I am here, my child. Yes, you, the lonely one. I see you. I have come for you.

I became a child upon the earth, vulnerable and naked so that you could know me. I grew and died for you so that my Spirit could come to you. I have never left you or forsaken you. Even though you have tried to hide, I sought you out. I love you; I seek you. My precious one, let me in. Let my light, my love, fill you where you feel empty, dead or in the dark, for I am the light of the world that gives light to every man; in me, there is no darkness. Let my light illuminate your heart so that you know you belong to my family and me.

Then Jesus told them this parable: “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it.

Luke 15:3-4 (NIV)

The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it.

John 1:5 (NIV)

When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

John 8:12 (NIV)

Monday Morning Prayer (WK47/2021)

Abba! Father, I awake this morning, giving thanks for a brand new day and a brand new week. You didn’t have to do it, so I lift You up giving You all glory, honour and praise. Forgive me of all sins, whether they be of thoughts, words or deeds and anoint me with the ample portion of wisdom, knowledge and understanding I will need for this day

Today, I recognise that in Your presence is where I belong. I invite Your Holy Spirit, which is a precious gift sent to Your people as a guide, protector, strength, light and so much more. It is all in the Light, which is Your Son the Lord Jesus Christ. Heavenly Father, lead me continually towards The Light. May there be no darkness within me, but assist me as I remain open and ready to receive from only You. Supply every one of my needs, because everything about me belongs to You; all that I am or could be, is to be found in You. Direct my path. Help me as I am faced with the busyness of the day, so I will be able to spend time with You, for You are an Ever-present God. I place myself under subjection to You, my life is in Your hands. My Father and my God, I trust in You.

For He (the Father) has put all things in subjection under His (Christ’s) feet. But when He says, “All things have been put in subjection [under Christ],” it is clear that He (the Father) who put all things in subjection to Him (Christ) is excepted [since the Father is not in subjection to His own Son].

1 Corinthians 15:27 (AMP)

For the word of God is living and active and full of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart.

Hebrews 4:12 (AMP)

20 Now may the God of peace [Who is the Author and the Giver of peace], Who brought again from among the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, by the blood [that sealed, ratified] the everlasting agreement (covenant, testament),

21 Strengthen (complete, perfect) and make you what you ought to be and equip you with everything good that you may carry out His will; [while He Himself] works in you and accomplishes that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ (the Messiah); to Whom be the glory forever and ever (to the ages of the ages).

Amen (So be it)

Hebrews 13:20-21 (AMPC)

Monday Morning Scripture (Wk47/2021) – Psalm 27

A Psalm of Fearless Trust in God.

Psalm of David

1 The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the refuge and fortress of my life—whom shall I dread?

2 When the wicked came against me to eat up my flesh, my adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell.

3 Though an army encamp against me, my heart will not fear; though war arise against me, even in this I am confident.

4 One thing I have asked of the Lord, and that I will seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord [in His presence] all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty [the delightful loveliness and majestic grandeur] of the Lord and to meditate in His temple.

5 For in the day of trouble He will hide me in His shelter; in the secret place of His tent He will hide me; He will lift me up on a rock.

6 And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me, in His tent I will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.

7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud; be gracious and compassionate to me and answer me.

8 When You said, “Seek My face [in prayer, require My presence as your greatest need],” my heart said to You, “Your face, O Lord, I will seek [on the authority of Your word].”

9 Do not hide Your face from me, do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; do not abandon me nor leave me, O God of my salvation!

10 Although my father and my mother have abandoned me, yet the Lord will take me up [adopt me as His child].

11 Teach me Your way, O Lord, and lead me on a level path because of my enemies [who lie in wait].

12 Do not give me up to the will of my adversaries, for false witnesses have come against me; they breathe out violence.

13 I would have despaired had I not believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

14 Wait for and confidently expect the Lord; be strong and let your heart take courage; yes, wait for and confidently expect the Lord.

Psalm 27:1-14 (AMP)

Sunday Morning Prayer (Wk46/2021) – Psalm 6

Prayer for Mercy in Time of Trouble.

To the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, set [possibly] an octave below. A Psalm of David.

1 O Lord, do not rebuke or punish me in Your anger, nor discipline me in Your wrath.

2 Have mercy on me and be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am weak (faint, frail); heal me, O Lord, for my bones are dismayed and anguished.

3 My soul [as well as my body] is greatly dismayed. But as for You, O Lord—how long [until You act on my behalf]?

4 Return, O Lord, rescue my soul; save me because of Your [unfailing] steadfast love and mercy.

5 For in death there is no mention of You; in Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead) who will praise You and give You thanks?

6 I am weary with my groaning; every night I soak my bed with tears, I drench my couch with my weeping.

7 My eye grows dim with grief; it grows old because of all my enemies.

8 Depart from me, all you who do evil, for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.

9 The Lord has heard my supplication [my plea for grace];The Lord receives my prayer.

10 Let all my enemies be ashamed and greatly horrified; let them turn back, let them suddenly be ashamed [of what they have done].

Psalm 6:1-10 (AMP)
