war
make war with sin, make war with the flesh and idolatries and sickness and oppression will soon flee by the same power we make war with sin which is the holy spirit.
Waiting for Heaven
Mark 15:43
Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent member of the Council, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for Jesus' body.
Josepth of Aremathea in the word of God was identified as a 'man who was waiting for the Kingdom.' Thats how the Holy Spirit remembers him in the history of redemption.
Waiting means long patience. He did not see the complete fullness of the Kingdom on earth. Though undoubtedly is now in heaven. Did Jesus appear to Him in his ascension? Maybe the word is silent about this man after this act, His bold act. He will be remembered eternally as the man who gave His property (land) for the burial of Jesus.
Are we people who are waiting for the Kingdom's appearance in the world, in our lives, and finally in our death? May we be people of a long patient waiting. We will do bold things when we are waiting correctly for the correct thing.

Rock
You are my rock.
You carry me through
You are the rock that will break kingdoms and grind them as dust before your feet.
-Daniel 2:34-35

if i go through hell again you will be with me and see me through
Last year I went though hell and back and I know that you have seen me through and you will see me through everything I will ever go through in life.
In all things I am confident in you Lord.
In all things I am confident in you Lord.
Remembering
'Remember the pit that you were dug from, the rock from which you were hewn.'
I remember and I see that my pains are waters that swell above me and were deeper than my head.
I remember that your love is deeper than my pain.
I remember my need for redemption it burns in the present when remember my past.
I should read the passage on ephesians where it says remember your former way of life, forever save me from it Lord.

Reverence
Bowing in reverence before God, knowing that we are as nothing, specks.
God, being everything.
Is not a posture too outdated or shallow for in heaven the saints around the throne do the same in a timless posture of silent humble and reverent worship.
Make my heart so today that i might stand in awe of you.
