4.  Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
 5.  We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the Lord fulfil all thy petitions.
 6.  Now know I that the Lord saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

This Scripture may not even be familiar to a lot of people.  But it is so special to me.  Brought to me at a time in my life when it was in a 'mess';  when I was living out of the will of God; living  a wasted and despairing way.

 

One day when it seemed I could go no further, in spiritual despair, I opened the Book and it fell to this Word.  As I read it God spoke to my heart and opened this up to me. 

 

It is saying that when you are down in despair and sin, God will hear you and send you help from His Sanctuary in Heaven.

 

I sat and cried and clung to this with my whole heart and feeble strength.  I said to God, then by this I know you will help me, lift me up out of this mess I have gotten myself into.

 

I will have hope in God, because you promised here in your word to send me the help I need.  I cried and held to this; held the Blessed Book to my heart knowing God had told me personally, out of His Word, that he had not forgotten this wayward daughter and He was sending me the Spiritual help I needed.  It was coming down from His heaven to me.

 

I knew in that moment that I would 'get back' up and go with God.  And so it happened.

Later, I heard a lady preacher, she seemed to be speaking directly to me from God.  She taught that someone there had been in despair and darkness away from God.  She said, God is lifting you back up to where you fell from and He will take you into depths and heights with God that you never imagined before.

 

And so, once again, I cried in gladness and hope.  Once again I knew my God had sent me the assurance I needed that He had not forgotten me;  that He would lift me back up.  Once again my little heart took 'wings' and 'soared' with the Joy of God.  And from that night on, I kept moving up with God.  Here I am today in fulfillment of her prophecy.

 

It all stated with this Scripture written to ME.

 

Love,
