Part of my relationship with the Lord is writing music to Him and getting to encounter Him through these songs. And something that’s so cool is that He’s allowed us to create art and create things with Him, whether it’s a business or music or books or paintings, maybe even some dance. And we’re able to release our history with God through what we create with Him.
And what I love is that you can write a book about your experience. You could write a song about your experience. You could create a dance routine about your experience that you’ve had with the Lord, and the breakthrough that you’ve had, and that’ll be released to other people as well. It’s amazing how there’s these artists who have written these songs and we may never meet them, but those songs could be a core part of our relationship with the Lord. Those songs could be something that got us out of a really dark place in a dark season. And we get the opportunity to create that, too. You know, those songs for them, those books for them, you know, whatever it may be of that art that they’ve created with God, at one point, that was just an idea in their head just as you’ve had as well.
And I really believe that God has given his children the ability to create beautiful things that can release His glory into the world and to the lives of others. God is always about pouring into us to pour out to other people, to release His love, where we’re vessels of His love and His presence and His glory. And so if you have that in your heart, it could even be poetry. It could even be just, you’re someone who loves to encourage others, and it’s a way of using language to just bless those people around you.
Ask God how you can do that today or this week. And if you, you know, if it’s painting, if it’s a song or a book or whatever it may be, how you can release His love and glory and the testimony of Jesus through your art. Because the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy and it’s prophesying that God has done it once and He can do it again. And whatever the Lord has done before He can do it bigger and better, He can do it over and over again to everyone. And we want people to experience the love of God that we have experienced ourselves. We want people to experience the goodness of God that we’ve experienced ourselves.
And so I want to encourage you to take a part of your history with God that really taught you about His goodness, really taught you about His faithfulness. Maybe His love, His kindness, even the Father’s heart, the way that He allowed you to see that side of His glory and release that through your message to the world, release that through your day to day and the way you love others.
What I love, in the scripture too, is how it talks about the angels that are constantly before the throne. And the angels and elders and they’re casting down their crowns, and they’re saying, “Holy,” every time they look at the Lord. And they do it again, and they’re not just doing that nonchalantly, they are absolutely enamored with what they’re seeing every single time. They’re just in awe of the new facet of God’s glory that they’re seeing. And this has been going on forever, and they are just continually enamored with the goodness of God. And they’re overcome by His beauty and His wonder. And I love that we’ve had experiences as His children, throughout our lives of that presence of God and of our Father, but there’s so much more, and we can also release those experiences that we’ve had to other people so they can experience it as well. Because everything that He’s done in your life is transferable to other people as well.
And so I want to pray for you today, that a creative glory would come over you. That something creative from your inmost being, because you’re made in the likeness of your Father, would be released over you in any area of your life. Even if you don’t see yourself as a creative, that creativity of the Lord is in you because you’re made in His image. So I pray that that would be released over you and that there would be a grace for you to be able to create from the goodness of your Father and all that He’s done in your life. And even to prophesy through your creativity, and to prophesy through your gifts of what you want to see Him do in your city, your family, your workplace, and your nation. In Jesus’ name.
