Oh Majesty, the great Sovereign One, the Mighty Ruler, I want to come to You in the presence of others to bring Glory and rejoicing to Your Holy reign. I am in a season of quiet, this is clear. While I stand boldly in Your Power, I kneel, acknowledging Your supreme authority. I yearn to know the mysteries surrounding Your throne. I call to remembrance, though, that I need not lean on my own understanding, but to wait on Your Divine timing and revealing.

I strive not to, but I find myself pinning again for the things not made known to me just yet.
I accept that my role is that of a servant, to You first, but also to others, that in doing so, true liberty is found. I also believe in the power of Your Kingdom, peace, rest and joy prevail, but that it requires my complete surrender in my quest to understand the complexities and intricacies that make up the Kingdom; yes, I must remain a loyal subject, subduing all prideful, selfish and vain pursuits if I am to be contributing vessel in the Kingdom.

What then does this mean, My Lord? You tell us to seek, to know, and to ask, that it is even our Glory to seek a matter out. Your every design testifies to Your existence, from creation to curiosity, from glory to glory, You are confirmed. I think that the key lies in the waiting. We must be firm in Your victory whilst we eagerly but peacefully await Your Input, Your Power, Your Guidance, Your Comfort, Your Protection, Your Revealing, Your very Self. I must keep at the forefront of my focus this truth...that while Your generosity allows the sharing of the Kingdom, the properties and nature, it still does not belong to me, in fact the beauty is in it belongs to You. I can only abide victoriously in You. You must have dominion if I want to call the Kingdom my home.

This is often challenging but in You, alone, all things are possible; In You, alone, hope flourishes.

I get excited like I am waiting in a long line, waiting to step onto the coolest, most longest, most thrilling and pleasant ride, EVER. I am looking up ahead, the enthusiasm builds as I feel my turn is approaching, like something big is about to happen. Just as my heightened state has me wanting to soar to the front of the line, I feel a tap of peace of my shoulder, telling me, “child you are already here, just sit back and enjoy this part of the journey”.

I break out in freedom’s fireworks, as my spirit reaches for the sky. I will, of course know more, this is His promise. The Kingdom of God, though, is at hand, within my reach, right here, right now, for all who want His exalted presence. There is no magic or secret formula, just the Majesty and Truth of Him and His Essence.

May we all bow before the One true King!!!

Most of the time when I'm screening new threads at best I'll just browse a longer post like this rather than read it word for word. I just happened to look back at it days later and all I can say is that IMO this should be the attitude of every Christian.

Wow, I am so honored. I bet you do grow tired of long drawn out posts, lol. There are so many, huh? I tell you what, though, your reading it fully and taking the time to respond with words of encouragement has made my day. Thank you so very MUCH!!! God Bless you for all you do. This place has value in my life and in my faith.
