The Saturday Song – King of the World

Posted on by Dorci

Hello friends.  I hope you’re having a great Saturday and preparing your heart for what the Lord desires to speak into your heart this weekend.  

I heard this song again recently and with all that’s going on in our world, and in my own life, it really touched my heart, and I wanted to share it with you. 

The God we serve – the great I AM, the creator of the universe and of you and me, the One who sent His own Son to purchase our souls, and has made a way for our eternity at home with Him – is, always has been, and always will be the King of the world. 

No matter what we’re facing today or will face tomorrow, He’s got this, if we’ll just hold it out to Him and ask Him. 

May He bless your day, your weekend, and may you see His strong and loving hand in all the things that concern you. 


King of the World
by Natalie Grant

I try to fit you in the walls inside my mind
I try to keep you safely in between the lines
I try to put you in the box that I’ve designed
I try to pull you down so we are eye to eye

When did I forget that you’ve always been
The King of the world?
I try to take life back right out of the hands
Of the King of the world

How could I make you so small
When you’re the one who holds it all
When did I forget that you’ve always been
The King of the world?

Just a whisper of your voice can tame the seas
So who am I to try to take the lead
Still I run ahead and think I’m strong enough
When you’re the one who made me from the dust

When did I forget that you’ve always been
The King of the world?
I try to take life back right out of the hands
Of the King of the world

How could I make you so small
When you’re the one who holds it all
When did I forget that you’ve always been
The King of the world

Oh, you set it all in motion
Every single moment
You brought it all to me
And you’re holding on to me

When did I forget that you’ve always been
The King of the world?
I try to take life back right out of the hands
Of the King of the world

How could I make you so small
When you’re the one who holds it all
When did I forget you’ve always been
The King of the world

You will always be the King of the world

God Promises to Be a Refuge

The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold
in times of trouble. Those who know your name trust
in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who
seek you.
Psalm 9:9-10

Sunday Praise and a Prayer For Strength in Our Brokenness

Posted on by Dorci

Dear Heavenly Father, we praise your holy and powerful name. 

Lord, so many times we try to run from our brokenness and our weaknesses and perceived flaws by ignoring them or hiding them or trying to right them ourselves. 

Instead, we offer them up to you today and ask that you would fill those places with your strength and power and make our faith even stronger, our character more beautiful, than we ever would have been without them. 

We give you all the glory and honor and praise in advance for what you’re going to do. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.

If you have any prayer requests, please leave a comment, message, or email me. I’d be honored to pray for you. 

The Saturday Song – Voice of Truth

Posted on by Dorci

Hello friends. In case you haven’t noticed, there are a lot of voices out there screaming for our attention. And there are some up close, whispering in our minds things about ourselves that are absolutely not true. They are lies from the pit of hell.

And there is another Voice, whispering even smaller and quieter, that we are we are loved, we are forgiven, we are His, and He has a plan for our lives. 

Every day we make a choice to discern those voices against the backdrop of God’s Word and the Holy Spirit, and choose to listen to and believe the Voice of Truth.  

And when we put on the clothes of righteousness Christ purchased for us, and the armor of God the Spirit provides and step out in faith, we will live in victory. 

Rooting for you!!!
