Father✝️ in Heaven,

As I pray today
in the name of Jesus Christ✝️,
👍🏾our⚖️ Only ✝️ Way,
may You✝️ continue
to teach 👍🏾us⚖️
the meaning of a word
that rest upon my heart.

Next!

What’s next, Lord✝️ concerning us?
What step must 👍🏾we⚖️ trust
in a next assignment?
What warnings must we receive
to keep us in proper alignment,
for this season or a next?

There are many!

Yes, yet You✝️ are Sovereign
Over every area of our lives.
So as your children among us thrive,
May you teach us according to
Every idle word
that essential reason
for 👍🏾our⚖️ agreement,
Obedience that leads
to 👍🏾our⚖️ opportunity
to see Your✝️ Will being done.

Next Lord✝️, Your✝️ son
desires to know
what is the truth
stacked up against 👍🏾our⚖️ lies?
What illusions will it
rip away from 👍🏾our⚖️ eyes?

Yet, as I ask such questions
In anticipation.
what comes next
in this prayer
over this 👍🏾situation ⚖️
is another word that
settles within my heart.

Patience.

That which is essential
To establish the finish
to 👍🏾our⚖️ start,
as 👍🏾we’re⚖️ reminded of
the hardest part
of believing in what’s next
as we ought,
waiting for what
we cannot yet see.

So since it’s understood
that waiting takes time.
whether a little or a lifetime
We must know,
what is 👍🏾our⚖️ work
in the meantime
That consistent word
of waiting seen around the clock
again takes time to understand

Hence the need
to work the Your✝️ plan
of Your✝️ gospel
In us and through us
towards an infrastructure
that must realize reformation
against a lifetime of trials
the test of 👍🏾our⚖️ mind,
the stretch of the heart,
and 👍🏾our⚖️ challenge of faith
unto a generational safe place.

Meanwhile time must remain
👍🏾our⚖️ common ground
unto good memories
where patience
performs its perfect work.

Therefore Lord✝️ teach 👍🏾us⚖️
that waiting doesn’t mean
You’re✝️ absent.
And patience
doesn’t mean
we’ve been forgotten,
Yet we remain begotten
Through Your✝️ Son✝️

Because Your✝️ Word
in Romans 5
reminds 👍🏾us⚖️
that through Jesus Christ✝️,
we have been justified
by faith,
through your peace
that’s reconciled us to You✝️,
and granted access to grace
that expresses
your flavor of life
in which we,

Stand!

We stand
As they which live
Not because
the circumstances are easy,
Nor because
the answers are immediate,
But because
our peace with You✝️ pressurizes
greater than the pressure
surrounding 👍🏾us⚖️.

So Lord✝️ as we experience
Your✝️ excellent ministry
Of Your✝️ gospel
through reconciliation
May you teach 👍🏾us⚖️
to navigate
individually and collectively
Yet respectively
through hardship,
distress,
good trouble,
pressure,
and the nevertheless
that shows 👍🏾our⚖️ ability
to stick out our chest,
as a perfect work of patience
unto a result of God✝️’s best!

So, Lord Jesus✝️
“This✝️”is what 👍🏾we’re⚖️ taught!
Yet, in this season
Some may still feel 2Corinthians’ 4,
perplexed!
Then we obviously ask, why?!
So may you teach ⛪️us⚖️ “how-to”,
according to this prayer
as 👍🏾we⚖️ therefore prepare
for what’s next.

Thy ✝️ Sovereign Will be done!

This is my prayer
in Jesus Christ✝️ name,
as we pray and give thanks

Amen.
