He Reigns

In earlier post I commented on my good friend’s powerful prayer, “Lord, reign.” As I continue to consider these amazing words I am humbled. Isn’t this what we truly want? Regardless, of our current circumstances, isn’t this what we want?


I woke up this morning and had my worship and prayer time with the Lord. I greeted my family with joy. I spoke with my husband, who returned late last night from a business trip about things I felt the Lord was stirring in my about some decisions we need to make. My words were articulate and thought out. I thanked God he had given me clarity in mind and voice. Feeling very positive about things I left to take our children to school. Within the 20 minutes I was gone, I saw evidence that perhaps I had not “figured” anything out at all.

Slightly discouraged I remembered the words, Lord, reign. Then a song came into my heart. (Oh how grateful I am for the gifted musicians and song writers.) The Lord puts a new song in my heart every chance I let Him. I just had to share this song. This is the cry of my heart for the immediate future. I don’t want to tell God how to do His job. I want to pray His Word and let Him reign. Reign in my life, in my home, in my circumstances, in my ministry, in my church, and in my country.

Be blessed with the song God placed in my heart today. May it bless you and my He reign in you today!
