Sitting Upon the Flood

The Lord sits enthroned over the flood; the Lord sits enthroned as king forever. Psalm 29:10 ESV

An upgrade to our comfort is in knowing that the King sits upon the flood. He not only goes through the trials with us but He is king over it. Though He may not be the one who causes a specific circumstance He is yet king over it—He causes "all things to work together" for some good in accomplishing His purpose.

More often than not, I'll be praying for the souls, and some Scripture or topic will come through that. Sometimes I already have the word, and I cannot tell when it came, but I know what I should share on. In your case, you may have a word already in your heart that has worked in you to get you to this point. Even still, you take the word and bring it to the Lord and pray for the people that will be listening. 2) Meditate and receive the word The largest par...
