the throne

I remind myself often and lately, many times per day, that He is still on the throne. That He is still King of kings and Lord of lords...

As Toby Mac sings:

Hush little baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight

Hush little baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lords gonna answer your prayer

Hey little girl with the pressures of the world on you shoulders
Don't say that it's over
I heard your prayers, just cast your cares
And I'll be there so don't you fear (2x)

Everything's gonna be alright (3x)
Be alright (2x)

(Yeah)Father I'm stronger I say
Father I'm stronger I say
Father I'm stronger
than when I first believed yeah (2x)

I say hey little girl with the pressures of the world on her shoulders
Don't say that it's over (2x)

I heard your prayers, just cast your cares
And I'll be there, so don't you fear

The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer


I have a dear friend whose then-6yr old daughter prayed and asked God to "throw her allergies and her epilepsy in the garbage." Well, I'm going to learn from this child and pray that God throws my stress, worries, concerns, anxieties, fears and high blood pressure in the garbage! Lord, please take them and throw them in the garbage! InJesusname I pray!
