How Can It Be?

How can it be Lord
That day to day
My bones ache with weariness
My muscles cry out in pain
And I have no energy
Other than to exist for the day?

How can it be Lord
That I’m Your beloved bride
Bought by Your blood, Jesus
To sit by Your side
To live in Your kingdom
To live in Your power?

How can it be Lord
That You live in me today
Touching my whole body
With Your love eternally
Yet in sickness I live
Yearning to be free?

How can it be Lord
That I’m Your beloved bride
Bought by Your blood, Jesus
To sit by Your side
To live in Your kingdom
To live in Your power?

How can it be Lord
That Your stripes were for my healing
That the punishment You took
Was to give me health and freedom
When I lie here in sickness
And pain is my companion?

How can it be Lord
That I’m Your beloved bride
Bought by Your blood, Jesus
To sit by Your side
To live in Your kingdom
To live in Your power?

How can it be Lord
That You died for all my sins
Took sinful me to the grave
And gave me Your life to live
Yet I struggle each day
To find the energy to move?

How can it be Lord
That I’m Your beloved bride
Bought by Your blood, Jesus
To sit by Your side
To live in Your kingdom
To live in Your power?

There is no sin I’ve done
That Your blood does not cover
And You have given me
Your righteousness forever
And I’m living in Your glory
Where satan has no power

For I know it to be Lord
That I’m Your beloved bride
Bought by Your blood, Jesus
To sit by Your side
To live in Your kingdom
To live in Your power

Let the fulness of Your victory
Be seen in me today
Your power over sickness
Your restoring, healing Grace
Your presence and Your love
My eternal embrace

For I know it to be Lord
That I’m Your beloved bride
Bought by Your blood, Jesus
To sit by Your side
To live in Your kingdom
To live in Your power

Ephesians 1:17 First Meditation

“I pray that the Father of glory, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, would impart to you the riches of the Spirit of wisdom and the Spirit of revelation to know him through your deepening intimacy with him.” Ephesians 1:17 TPT
Father of glory, God of our Lord Jesus Christ, impart to me the riches of the Spirit of wisdom and the Spirit of revelation to know You through deepening intimacy with Jesus.

God:
Come My Love
To where We are
Come dance with Us

Come rejoicing for you are One with Us
Come be with Us for what’s Ours is yours

Wisdom comes from saturation
With Our Presence and Our nature

Listening to all that We impart

Feel Our touch, Our revelation
Knowing more and more of our nature
Our power for healing and restoration

For there is no limit to Our power and glory

Ephesians 1:14 Second Meditation

I praise and thank You Papa God that Holy Spirit is given to me like an engagement ring is given to a bride, as the first instillment of what’s coming! He is my hope-promise of a future inheritance which seals me until I have all of redemption’s promises and experience complete freedom—all for the supreme glory and honour of God! (Ephesians 1:14 TPT)

Like a bride displays her engagement ring
I want people to see Your Holy Spirit in me
I want people to see I am sealed as Your bride
I want people to know I am one with Your Son

In this first instalment I want to taste
All heavens blessings in this earthly place
To show the glory you have given
In making me a child of heaven

I want your love to be manifest
So all I say and do is the best
That heaven has to offer us
So Jesus Christ is glorified

I want your peace to as my ring of protection
To have peace as my core in all situations
So I can bring your peace to others
Let them taste what your peace has to offer

I want your joy in me as your bride
To be my life and defining light
I want the world to see the glory
Of your Spirit’s joyful embrace of me

I want your power to flow through me
To help usher in Jesus victory
To bring many sons into God’s kingdom
To bring salvation, healing, deliverance and freedom

I want my Spirit seal to shine like a diamond
To demonstrate your love and commitment
To show to the world that You are faithful
And demonstrate Jesus is our salvation

Overflowing Joy

“So you must remain in life-union with me, for I remain in life-union with you. For as a branch severed from the vine will not bear fruit, so your life will be fruitless unless you live your life intimately joined to mine.
My purpose for telling you these things is so that the joy that I experience will fill your hearts with overflowing gladness!” John 15:4, 11 TPT

Jesus:
Know My love
The Joy I have in you
Now we are one
Overflows your heart too
My heart and your heart
In unity
Together in love
For eternity

The joy I had
In planning your birth
Into this world
Onto this earth
Knowing who you would be
And what you would do
Planning to save you
Make you joyful too

The joy that took me
From heaven to earth
To be born as a child
A human birth
Leaving all of heaven’s
Power and glory
To reach out to you
Become part of your story

Know My love
The Joy I have in you
Now we are one
Overflows your heart too
My heart and your heart
In unity
Together in love
For eternity

The joy I had
In walking this earth
Loving others
As God’s true Son
Bringing hope and forgiveness
Healing and freedom
Heaven coming to earth
So you could come to heaven

The joy that kept me
Through trial and whipping
Kept me walking
To my crucifixion
Kept me nailed to the cross
As your sins I carried
Kept me trusting God
Even when I died

Know My love
The Joy I have in you
Now we are one
Overflows your heart too
My heart and your heart
In unity
Together in love
For eternity

The joy that raised me
From the dead
To live again
And reign at God’s side
With you beside me
Freed from sin
To be a Son of God
And with me One

Joy through sorrow and loss
Joy in the victory
That I gained for you and I
On calvary
All heaven’s blessings
Flowing in and through you
For what’s mine is now yours
We are one eternally

Know My love
The Joy I have in you
Now we are one
Overflows your heart too
My heart and your heart
In unity
Together in love
For eternity

Ephesians 1:14 First Meditation

I praise and thank You Papa God that Holy Spirit is given to me like an engagement ring is given to a bride, as the first instalment of what’s coming! He is my hope-promise of a future inheritance which seals me until I have all of redemption’s promises and experience complete freedom—all for the supreme glory and honour of God! (Ephesians 1:14 TPT)

God:
Like a bride to be
Wears an engagement ring
My Holy Spirit’s Presence
Seals you as Mine
Our lives are now
Forever entwined
All that’s mine is now yours
All of heaven’s delights

When you accepted
My invitation
To become one with My Son
A child of My Kingdom
I made it real
With the Holy Spirit seal
The guarantee
That you are now One with Me

It’s My intention to see
My Glory in You
The life of My Son
For all to view
His kingdom power
And authority
Used to heal this world
Of sin’s dark deeds

It’s my desire to see
Many sons just like Jesus
Living lives of love
And lives of service
Seeking to share
All that I’ve given you
Reborn in My Kingdom
The world to bless

He is the beginning
And My invitation
To explore all My Kingdom
And experience it’s blessings
My Holy Spirit
Will empower you
To live as My Son
Be My Kingdom’s witness

Matthew 10:1 Meditation

Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. Matthew 10:1 TPT

It was always Your plan Jesus
To make us Your co-rulers
To give us Your authority
Re-make us in Your image

Your disciples had seen
Your actions of power
How Your words of authority
Brought healing and freedom
They had seen the lame walk
The blind receive their sight
And demons flee
From Your Presence and Your light

But You wanted more
More for them and for this world
You wanted us to be like You
Living the kingdom of God
So You began this day
With sharing Your authority
To heal and deliver
To Your disciples given

It was always Your plan Jesus
To make us Your co-rulers
To give us Your authority
Re-make us in Your image

I can only imagine
The shock on their faces
When You gave them this gift
Told them of their new places
By Your side as Your co-workers
Like brothers not servants
Like sons of a king
With His authority to bring

Were they slain in the Spirit
By this impartation?
Were they delighted or dumfounded
To be controlling Your power?
Did they see what it meant
How Your kingdom works?
Did they understand
That all that’s Yours would be theirs?

It was always Your plan Jesus
To make us Your co-rulers
To give us Your authority
Re-make us in Your image

In this first impartation
We see Your plan for salvation
We see the glory of heaven
Humanity re-creating
These ordinary men
Were raise to Your height
So they could live as sons of God
In His kingdom power

For them this transformation
Must have been a powerful thing
Because there was no discussion
No doubts and questioning
They had seen You at work
Knew what they were getting
Your power to heal and deliver
Your Kingdom authority

It was always Your plan Jesus
To make us Your co-rulers
To give us Your authority
Re-make us in Your image

And as You call each of us
Into Your salvation
You impart the same authority
To each disciple You are making
For through our co-resurrection
You raise us to Your throne
By the side of God
Your eternal kingdom home

Help me to live each day
In Your authority
Bring Your Kingdom to earth
Live Your love and glory
Let my life be a song
Of praise for Your great gift
In making each of us Your brothers
With Your indwelling life

It was always Your plan Jesus
To make us Your co-rulers
To give us Your authority
Re-make us in Your image

I Will Fill You

“Looking intently at his followers, Jesus began his sermon. “How enriched you become when you are poor, for you will experience the reality of God’s kingdom realm. “How filled you become when you are consumed with hunger and desire, for you will be completely satisfied. “How content you become when you weep with complete brokenness, for you will laugh with unrestrained joy. “How favored you become when you are hated, excommunicated, or slandered, or when your name is spoken of as evil because of your love for me, the Son of Man. “I promise you that as you experience these things, you will celebrate and dance with overflowing joy. And the heavenly reward of your faith will be abundant, because you are being treated the same way as your forefathers the prophets.” Luke 6:20-23 TPT

Jesus:
When you can see you’re poverty
Really know that all you need is Me
There you will find My Kingdom’s provision
And receive all the glory of heaven

When your hunger and desire
Is not fulfilled with this world’s power
But leads you to call out to Me
I will fill you, be all you need

When you weep in brokenness
I will not leave you in distress
Your life’s broken pieces I will restore
To a laughter filled vessel overflowing with joy

When you are hated, slandered or rejected
Because your love for Me has been detected
I will bring you to My celebration
Where you can dance with joy, have rewards abundant

All of this life’s trials and needs
Are there to help you find life in Me
To know Our joy filled union eternally
And live in My Kingdom’s fullness and Glory

Ephesians 1:13 Second Meditation

I praise and thank You Papa God that when I heard the revelation of truth, I believed in the wonderful news of salvation. Now I have been stamped with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:13

God:
You put your trust
In Jesus work
Laying your burdens
At His feet
You died with Him
On the cross
So you could live
Your new life with Me

Stamped with My Holy Spirit
Sealed as a child of My love
All the old has passed away
And you live eternally by My side

You put your trust
In My Word
Found it was true
And could be lived
My promises
To make you new
Jesus guaranteed
When He rose from the grave

Stamped with My Holy Spirit
Sealed as a child of My love
All the old has passed away
And you live eternally by My side

All the things
That weigh you down
And keep you from living
In My peace, joy and love
You can wash away
In Jesus blood
He has paid the price
To free you from sinning

Stamped with My Holy Spirit
Sealed as a child of My love
All the old has passed away
And you live eternally by My side

The flow of My love
Is Jesus within you
My peace and rest
Is found here by My side
A well spring of joy
Is My Spirit within you
All that you need
I will provide

Stamped with My Holy Spirit
Sealed as a child of My love
All the old has passed away
And you live eternally by My side

Drink Deeply

“Listen to my testimony: I cried to God in my distress and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears! Gaze upon him, join your life with his, and joy will come. Your faces will glisten with glory. You’ll never wear that shame-face again. Drink deeply of the pleasures of this God. Experience for yourself the joyous mercies he gives to all who turn to hide themselves in him.” Psalms 34:4-5, 8 TPT

Papa God:
Come to the well
Of My love for you
Drink deeply of it’s pleasures
For they were placed there just for you

I know of your distress
Heard you cry out to me
And I have answered with My Presence
So your joy can be complete
