Good evening and welcome to I Cur Let's Praise Ministries, a space where compassion meets faith, and every heart finds a moment to breathe, reflect, and connect with God. Together we'll lift each other up, speak life over every situation, and trust that God is working in every detail in our lives. Amen. This is ICur Let's Praise Ministries, episode 8. And we will be talking about it's happening now. Trust in God, amen. We thank God for this moment. We thank God that we can connect this evening. And we thank God that He has a word in the atmosphere to for me to share with you all today. We will be reading the scripture text of Joel, the second chapter, the 21st, 25th verse, I'm sorry. And it reads this thus. And I will restore to you the years that the locusts have eaten, the canker worm and the caterpillar and the palmer worm, my great army, which I sent among you. Amen. And basically what that scripture is telling us is a divine promise of restoration following severe devastation, ensuring that God can compensate for lost time, missed opportunities, and wasted years that we think, right? It's promises of abundant recovery, transforming past losses into future fruitfulness. And I'm very grateful that God can restore all things. God can restore anything that we ask Him in prayer to restore within our life. Amen. And we also got to learn how to repent so we can be aligned to God's will and his way. No loss is final. Abundant compensation is ours. Our past does not define us. Our future defines us. Amen. So we will no longer hold on to our past. We will no longer hold on to grudges. We are truly walking in God's grace, God's love, and God's favor. Let us go to the Lord in prayer. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Heavenly Father, I come before you with a heart that has known loss, that has known failure, that has known broken. Ask you to restore what has been broken and to bring life back to what feels lost and distant in our lives, I pray. Heavenly Father, I ask you as I stand before your throne to forgive us of any sin seen and unseen, oh God, I pray. Creating us a clean heart, oh God, and renew the right spirit within us, so we may be in your presence in this very moment. God, I stand on your promise in Joel 2 and 25, that you will restore to us the years that the swarming locusts has eaten, seasons of pain, seasons of stagnation, despair, brokenness, failure, and feeling all alone. God, you said I will, the creator, God Almighty, Jehovah Jirah, Jehovah Nisi, not me, the little old civilian, not me that's nobody but a human vessel for you, oh God. But you said that you will make all things new in your due season. You make all things new in your time. And we thank you, oh God, for making all things new in our life. God, we just trust in you in this very moment because we know that you are with us. You are our rod, you are our staff, you are our protector, you are our healer, you are a physician, you are our doctor, and we thank you, oh God, for being all that we will ever need. God, you said that you will take our mistakes, our sinful choices, our trials, and internal and external disasters and turn them around for our good. That you would forgive us if we would just repent. Heavenly Father, we know that our past is our past. We know our loss is our loss, but we know that our future is very bright. We know our future is very promising, and we know our future is in your hands. And we thank you, oh God, for holding our life in your hands. We thank you, oh God, for keeping breath in our bodies. We thank you, oh God, for giving us a new perspective every time we wake up. And we know that anything we need is not beyond your reach, oh God. So we thank you, Henry Father, for trusting us to walk in this journey as Christians to be your vessels, Henny Father. Helly Father, we pray that you will turn our ashes into beauty, oh God. Turn our pain into joy, turn our frown into a smell, oh God. We thank you, oh God, for what you're doing already in our life, oh God. We already know weeping may endure for a night. We already know cries will come in the middle of the night, but God, we know that your love overtakes all of that. We know your joy overpowers that. And we thank you for that, oh God. God, we know our years have not been wasted. They still can serve a purpose. I believe, oh God, I trust and feel that our wasted years are not wasted, Henry Father. Help us to see and know this in our heart, man, soul, and spirit. I pray that our past years has not been wasted, but you're using it for our future, Heavenly Father. And we thank you for that. We thank you, oh God. We thank you, oh God, for the journey that you have us on. This is why I place my life in your hands, oh God, because I can trust you. I depend on you and I lean on you, oh God, because I need you each and every day. God, please make up for any lost time quickly. I pray, accelerating all our destiny to make up for years of waste of time. If this is your will to do for us, I pray, oh God. God, please, oh God, please, oh God, please, oh God, I beg of thee with a heart's cry to restore our time, restore our joy, restore our peace, blessings, and the opportunities that we may feel like that we have missed out on, oh God. Heal the places within us that may feel empty, worn down, and regretful, Heavenly Father. Heal our brokenness and bring not just replacement, oh God, but double measure restoration, I pray. Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. Thank you, oh God. Where we see loss, help us to trust that you are still working for our good. Give us hope for our future, strength for today, and power for tomorrow. Teach us all, I pray, oh God, to walk forward with faith, power, and authority, knowing that nothing in our lives is beyond your ability to redeem. We thank you for your mercy, oh God. We thank you for your patience. We thank you for chance after chance. We thank you for raising up on that third day with all power in your hands, oh God. Your power makes everything new. Your power restores, your power heals, your power brings light and life within our souls. And I thank you, oh God, for that. I thank you, oh God, for being a faithful God. I thank you, oh God, for being a just God. I thank you, oh God, for being a loving God. I thank you, oh God, for being all that we were ever needed. And I'ma keep on saying that. God, if you don't do nothing else in our life, you've done enough. And we thank you, oh God, in this very moment. We praise you right now in this very moment, oh God. God, we are grateful right now. We are thankful right now. We are shouting to the hill's top. Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus. Because we're so grateful for the life that you have given us. We're thankful that you're providing for us each and every day. God, we love you so much and we know that you love us. And for that, we would never be ashamed of it ever again. We would never silence ourselves to not let people know how much we love you, God. We're gonna let the world know how much we love you each and every day. We're gonna praise you, not just on Sundays, oh God, but we're gonna praise you every step of the way in the morning time, in the afternoon time, in the midnight hours, oh God. We're gonna praise your holy name because you have been the Alpha and the Omega in our life. You've been the beginning and end in our life. And we praise you for that, oh God. God, have your way within our heart, have your way within our minds, have your way within our spirits, oh God, because we need you in this very hour, this very second. We know that you're doing great things in our life. Help us to see the goodness and all that you're doing right now in our life, Heavenly Father. We want to overcome our obstacles, we want to overcome our trials and our tribulations, God. We want to breathe fresh, Heavenly Father. We want to feel all good things coming our way, Henry Father. We might not spend years of walking through the valley of the shadow of death, but God, we know that greatness is above us, greatness is within us, and greatness surrounds us, Heavenly Father. So I'm asking right now in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, that you will fill us, oh God, with reassurance that we are walking in your calling, that we're walking in your love, that we're walking in your word, Heavenly Father. God, have your way within us day in and day out, oh God, because we know great things is coming about for just for us, oh God. You we got a blessing with our name on it. We got gifts with our name on it that's coming from you, oh God. And we thank you for that, oh God. We praise your name right now, oh God, for being just a great God in our life right now. God, you are the ultimate father, the only father that we know that were down across for our sins, the only father that we know that will shed his blood for us, Heavenly Father. And I thank you, oh God, for that. I thank you, oh God, forgiving, forgiving us your only begotten Son, Heavenly Father. Have your way in our life in this very moment. God, fill every listener up with joy today. Give them peace of mind, give them reassurance that you are walking with them. Let them know every day that you are with them. Let them know that you are holding their hand, that you're covering them, that you're protecting them, and you're showing them the way. Lord, we thank you so much for what you have done, what you're doing in this very moment, and what you're about to do. We know in this moment that great things, great things, great things is above us and great things is gonna come out of us, Heavenly Father. We're about to birth a new earth of blessings for this world, Heavenly Father. We thank you for that, oh God. God, we praise you, we honor you, and we exalt your holy name. It's in your darling son, Jesus Christ's name. We pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. God is so good, and I want you to know no matter what hill you on, what mountain you're trying to climb, or whatever you're going through right now in your life, I want you to know to continue to smile, continue to encourage yourself, and I want you to know that I care. I want you to be happy, I want you to be blessed, I want you to be healed, and I know that God loves us all the same. And I know God provides for all of us the same. So I want you to hold on to God's unchanging hand, and I want you to hold God to his word, read a couple of scriptures, pray, and let God know that I'm here, Heavenly Father. I'm asking, I'm knocking, I'm seeking, I'm looking to the heels which come into my help. Let him know, Matthew 6 and 33, that you are looking for him and not the blessings of his world. If you seek God first and his righteousness, all these things shall be added unto you. So I just want to thank you all for listening again. I hope you all have a wonderful rest of your night. I hope you all getting ready to go to church tomorrow for Easter to celebrate the resurrection, to celebrate his love, to celebrate his life, to celebrate just the whole brand new day that he has given us. So I pray you all have a wonderful church service tomorrow. And I hope you all have a wonderful night and you sleep tight. Don't let the bed buzz by. You know, we say that back in the day when we was younger. But I just pray God continue to keep his hand upon us, his blood on us, and his love knows right around us. Until we meet again.
