Mighty To Save

This past week I felt as though I was constantly being reminded of how much I am not the one who is in control of my life or my circumstances. I once again was torn between taking things into my own hands or surrendering myself to God. As I was being reminded of God's faithfulness and His good plans for my life, I was also reminded of how powerful my God is! I rarely use the phrases My God, My Savior, My Jesus etc... But it is so true! He is MY God! He isn't just up there watching over me from far away! He is here with me now! He is my best friend, He is my dad, He is the only constant thing I will ever have in my life!

As I was listening to this song on repeat today (as I tend to do when I really like a song), I was overwhelmed by the reality of my God. I couldn't help but to think about how much God has done in my life and in the lives of all of you! Our God really can move the mountains! Try to think of God today as your best friend - It's not only a fun concept.... It's true!!!

Isaiah 25:9
"In that day they will say, "Surely this is our God; we trusted in him, and he saved us. This is the LORD, we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation."

Isaiah 35:4
"Say to those with fearful hearts, "Be strong, do not fear; your God will come, he will come with vengeance; with divine retribution he will come to save you."

Psalm 106:8
"Yet he saved them for his name's sake, to make his mighty power known."

Psalm 107:13
"Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress."

Psalm 109:30-31 "
"With my mouth I will greatly extol the LORD; in the great throng I will praise him. For he stands at the right hand of the needy one, to save his life from those who condemn him."

Psalm 116:6
"The LORD protects the simplehearted; when I was in great need, he saved me."

Psalm 138:7
"Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes, with your right hand you save me."

Psalm 145:19
"He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them."

Jeremiah 30:11A
I am with you and will save you,' declares the LORD.

Mighty To Save
(by Laura Story or Hillsong)

Everyone needs compassion
A love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me

Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Savior
The hope of nations

Savior
He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever
Author of Salvation
He rose & conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

So take me as You find me
All my fears & failures
Fill my life again

I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender (Yes, I surrender)

(2x)
