This is something I wrote at the beginning of March, when we first started praying together. I just wanted to share it with you because meditating upon it has caused me to ascribe more worth to our King.
We are so excited all day because tonight we are meeting together to go before the King. He has given us the opportunity to come before his throne. We come to him to hear what he desires his kingdom to look like. We come as listeners, eager to hear his heart. We praise him for his wisdom and his goodness. We love him because of his faithful love. We thank him for his mercy and forgiveness. We adore him for his beauty and we need him because of his grace. He is such a good King.
We rejoice at the privilege to kneel at his feet, yet as we bend in humility, he looks at us and says, “Stand, my children. Jesus has defeated the enemy. You have received the faith to come before me, and you have received the grace to stand before me.” Just to be near him is nerve-racking, but we can approach him with confidence. Like a loving father, He allows us to ask him to grant our requests. And whatever we ask, we receive from Him because we are we are asking the things that are pleasing to him. We confess that sometimes we mess up, but He has already forgiven us, and He lets us know that His plan for his kingdom is greater than our vision of it.
We are speechless as we leave the throne room, trying to realize what has just taken place. The Holy, Infinite, Creator King has just allowed us to entertain him with our presence. We look foreword to the good things that He will do, confidently expecting Him to add more subjects to his kingdom. Tomorrow we will watch as he grants our requests, and we are eager to go into his throne room and worship him again, because He is so worthy.
