"Yet a time is coming
and has now come when the true worshipers will worship
the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the
kind of worshipers the Father seeks." - John 4:23

My Heavenly Daddy is healing
me from the inside out.

Transparency is Real.
Many times painful.

Daddy let me be secure in You only!

ON MY KNEES


Before I went to sleep last night I prayed for the Lord to reveal something to me special. I was hurting and oppression settled on me heavily! I really needed to hear from Him as I go out into the world today!!! I did not know what to expect and kind of forgot my prayer request from last night until I woke up this morning. Upon waking up I had an old Nicole C. Mullen's song on my heart, "On My Knees." I am familiar with the song, but the lyrics I did not know too well. When I read them here, I see what the Lord is sharing with me and desiring for me to continue to do. Thank you!


On My Knees
Nicole C. Mullen

There are days,
When I feel
The best of me
Is ready to begin
Then they're days,
When I feel
I'm letting go,
And soaring on the wind
But I've learned in laughter or in pain,
How to survive

I get on my knees
I get on my knees
there I am before the Love that
Changes me
See, I don't know how,
But there's power
when I’m on my knees

I can be in a crowd,
or by myself.
or almost anywhere,
when I feel, there's a need
to talk with God, he is Emmanuel,
when I close my eyes,
no darkness there
there's only light

When I get on my knees
When I get on my knees
there I am before the Love that changes me
see I don't know how, but there's power
in the blue sky
I don't know how but there's power
and in the midnight
and I don't know how but there's power
when I’m on my knees
I get on my knees
I get on my knees
and there I am before the Love that changes me
I don't know how, but there's power
I don't know how but God gives me power
I don't know how but there's power
When I'm on my knees

  7. Your post blessed me this morning JBR as I also woke up and did something I hadn't done in a long time: to get down on my knees as I prayed at the wee hours of this morning. Yes, bending our knees shows we are in need of His strength and power! And as we humble ourselves before Him, He always grants it. Glory to God! God bless and protect you as you go to work today.

  8. Hi Real Friend. Thank you for standing with me in prayer for my healing. I will get better. I love that song. Many a times, I have found myself marveling at the power which comes at our position of weakness. Those who bow on their knees are admitting without HIM they can do nothing. I WILL GET ON MY KNEES...AND KNOW HIS POWER. God bless you mighty in this NEW YEAR!!!!
