9 I pray, that your love may abound still more…in knowledge and all discernment. (Phil. 1:9) D.
L- Light of glory: Father, let me see the light of Your glory (or encounter the glory realm). Give me Holy Spirit encounters (dreams, visions, angelic visitations, manifestations of light, fire, wind) as You gave to Moses, Isaiah, Ezekiel, and John (Ex. 33-34:29-30; Isa. 6; Ezek. 1; Rev. 1). 6 A great light from heaven shone around me…
8 He said to me, “I am Jesus of Nazareth…”
11 I could not see for the glory of that light…I came to Damascus. (Acts 22:6-11) 18 And he (Moses) said, "Please, show me Your glory." (Ex. 33:18) 6 Lord, lift up the (light of Your countenance upon us. (Ps. 4:6)
O- One thing life focus: Father, I choose to be a person of one thing who often sits at Your feet. I set my heart to spend quality time with You and to cultivate an inward gaze toward You. Alert me when I lose this focus, align my life circumstances so I can walk this out and anoint my times with You that I may feel Your love and feel desire for You and Your Word. 4 One thing I have desired…all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord. (Ps. 27:4) 42 But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part… (Lk. 10:42)
1. The Word is to create a living active dialogue in our heart with God. We pray-read the Word or converse with Jesus as we read it. To love God with all our mind involves taking time to fill our heart with God’s word. We gain revelation of God by meditating on it. 2.
We gain the “fuel of intimacy” in times of prayer by connecting and relating to God as a person. This empowers us to love God and man. This is the key to not burning out. David set his heart to consistently set the Lord before him as a lifestyle. 8 I have set the Lord always before me… (Ps. 16:8)
