Sabbath Prayer I wait quietly before Your Holy throne my God, for my victory comes from You. Dear God You alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will never be shaken. Let all that I am wait quietly before You my God, for my hope is in You, God and Lord of heaven and earth. God alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will not be shaken. My victory and honor comes from Jehovah alone. The Lord is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me. I will trust in You O Lord at all times. I will pour out my heart to You for You my God is my refuge. (Psalm 62:1-2,5-7)
Sabbath Scripture This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel says; Only in returning to me will you be saved. In quietness and confidence is your strength. Isaiah 30: 15
Sabbath Rest The Lord waits for me to come to him so He can show me His love and compassion. For the Lord is a faithful God. I am blessed because I wait for His help. His help comes quietly but surely. (Isaiah 30:18)
In quietness and confidence I sit before the Lord. Kneeling before His holy throne I find rest for my soul. My spirit is quieted in His presence and my heart is tuned to His voice. All the cares and anxieties of the world I cast before Him, from me He takes them all. Lovingly His compassion and love is poured into me. I am filled as He draws near to me, shielding me with His love. My heart is joyous as I rest in His care. I lift my heart in praise; glorious are all your works O Lord, marvelous are Your ways, Majesty and splendor flows from Your touch. Great is the Lord, mercy and grace surrounds You. O’ Emmanuel, My God is with me, Jehovah Rophe, the Lord my Healer, takes away my pain and my soul is healed. Elohim, the Lord Almighty is awesome in my life. El Shaddai, God is my All Sufficient, Adonai, my Lord, Jesus my Lord I praise Your holy name. Jehovah Rohi, the Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me besides the still waters, He restores my soul. Jehovah-Shammah – God’s Abiding Presence is always with me. O Lord may I rest in Your Presence for all eternity?

God created the Sabbath as a day of rest, a time for us to rest and refresh from our week of labor. Sabbath is a special time for you to spend with the Lord. It is a time for you to reconnect with the God. It is a place where you can get quiet and bask in His presence with praise, prayer and worship. I pray this will be a place where you can spend a part of your sabbath time and leave filled with renewal and joyful fellowship with God the Father, God the Christ and God the Holy Spirit. All are welcome, please pour into one another and let God pour into you. Please join me each sunday to share a sabbath rest.

Living Waters
A Spring of Water welling up to Eternal Life
Psalm 63
O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you. My soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you in this parched and weary land where there is no water. I have seen you in your sanctuary and gazed upon your power and glory. Your unfailing love is better than life itself; how I praise you. I will praise you as long as I live, lifting up my hands in prayer. You satisfy me more than the richest feast. I will praise you with songs of joy. I lie awake thinking of you mediating on you through the night. Because you are my helper. I sing for joy in the shadow of your wings I cling to you; your strong right hands holds me securely.
Today's Verse
Love God
You are my portion, Lord; I have promised to obey Your words. I have sought your face with all my heart. Psalm 119 57-58a I have put my hope in your word. Psalm 119:147b Praise the name of the Lord, praise Him you servants. Psalms 135:1 My Mouth will speak in praise of the Lord. Let every creature praise His holy name for ever and ever. Psalm 145:21
God Loves You
How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much more pleasing is your love than wine, and the fragrance of your perfume than any spice! Song of Solomon 4:10
Follow God's example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, Just as Christ loved us ang gave Himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. Ephesians 5:1
We love because He first loved us. 1 John 4:19
I have given them the glory that You gave me, that they may be one as we are one--I in them and you in me--so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that You sent me and have loved them even as you have love me. John 17:3
Praise the Lord, all you nations; extol Him, all you peoples. For great is His love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord. Psalm 117
O Lord, you have searched me and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O Lord. You hem me in--behind and before; you have laid your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain. Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me," even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would out number the grains of sand. When I awake, I am still with you. Psalm 139:1-18
Spiritual Sundays
Sunday Community
Exodus 31
Tell the people of Israel; Be careful to keep my Sabbath day, for the Sabbath is a sign of the covenant betwen me and you from generation to generation. It is given so you may know that I am the Lord, who makes you holy. You must keep the Sabbath day, for it is a holy day for you. Anyone who desecrates it must be put to death, anyone who works on this day will be cut off from the community. You have six days each week for your ordinary work, but the seventh day must be a Sabbath day of complete rest, a holy day dedicated to the Lord. Anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to death. The people of Israel must keep the Sabbath by observing it from generation to generation. This is a covenant obligation for all time. It is a permanent sign of my covenant with the people of Israel. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, but on the seventh day he stopped working and was refreshed.
Let us Pray
At about that same time he climbed a mountain to pray. He was there all night in prayer before God. Luke 6:12 That's why I urge you to pray for absolutely everything ranging from small to large. Include everything as you embrace this God-life, and you'll get God's everything. Mark 11:24 May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice. Psalm 141:2
Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
I am a child of God. I believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, died for my sins, and was resurrected by the power of God and is now at His Right Hand and has been given all authority in heaven and earth, I believe He lives and is coming back again to receive His own. I am Seeking intimacy with God the Father, God the Savior and God the Holy Spirit. My desire and passion is to minister to women also seeking to develop intimacy with the Lord. To share our experiences and desires as together we grow in Christ.
