Awaken Our Soul



Verses: Psalms 108: 1 - 13

Song inspired by the chapter:  Song has been uploaded from YouTube.com and is not my original.





My thoughts about the verses:

We all have moments in our life that our souls are not awake.  Our souls are not awake praising God.  We forget to offer up thanksgiving.  It is if we are awake in the physical sense but asleep deep within.

We walk around the world with a heavy heart.  Our mind loses focus on the one that has set us free.  We forget about all the things that God has led us out of.  Instead we focus on the problems that we are currently struggling with.

We need to awake our souls and offer up praises to God.  We need to look into our inner self and realize that we are not walking in the triumphant which is our salvation.  We need to thank God for helping us through the hard times.  We need to praise God for the good times that are in our life.

We need to awake our souls and ask for God’s compassion and grace.  We need to pray to God to help us in this moment and place.  We need to ask God for strength and wisdom.

When we turn our lives over to God we feel a freedom that no one can give us.  When our soul is awake praising God our struggles become less a burden.  When we go to God and ask for help we have a triumphant God that eases our pain. 

Yet, how many of us walk every day in this world without focusing on God?  How many of us allow our struggles to overtake us and miss the reward that is ours?  When you allow your soul to awake in the name of God you will be blessed with healing and grace.  Your problems may not go away but you will have a helpmate on your side. 

Think on this a moment Jesus was able to conquer death.  Jesus arose out of the grave a heroic savior.  Jesus came so that we may have peace.  Yet, do we allow that peace to flow freely in our life?  We need to always remember that Jesus is the ultimate peacemaker in our life.  If we only allow the Messiah to take control our life will be changed.

The Holy Spirit is there waiting for you to turn over your problems.  We need to awaken our souls so that we can walk in peace and victory.  Yet, look at your life have you allowed the Holy Spirt to guide you.  If we would allow our souls to be awakened in the knowledge of our Savior living within us we would have a heart of purity and strength. 
Yet, we often forget that the one that saved us lives within us.  We do not allow the Holy Spirit to take charge.  Instead we sleep within and carry the burden alone.  We need to learn to awaken each day not only physically but spiritually.  When we do this our daily struggles will only seem as minute obstacles. 

Prayer:

We praise you God for your love.  We offer up our hearts and minds to you.  We praise you for your salvation and peace.  We give you thanks for your strength and wisdom.  We ask that you help us awaken our soul.  Help us dear God to walk in your strength each day.  Help us praise and worship you.  In the name of the Peacemaker we pray.  Amen

Questions:


Did you awake today both physically and spiritually?  Are you walking through this world with your soul asleep?  Is today the day that you turn over your cares?  Are you willing to allow God to be your guide?  What do you need to thank God for today?
