The God Who Stoops to See Reference Ps 113:1-3 (AMP)- Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!) Praise, O servants of the Lord, Praise the name of the Lord. Blessed be the name of the Lord. From this time forth and forever. From the rising of the sun to its setting The name of the Lord is to be praised [with awe-inspired reverence]. The ancient Psalmist gives us that perspective in Psalm 113. It is a short chapter, but it packs a punch that can completely recalibrate our view of God and, consequently, our view of ourselves. There are days when life feels incredibly small. We get lost in the minutiae of our to-do lists, the weight of our worries, and the echo of our own inadequacies. We look at the mountains we need to climb—the career goals, the relationship hurdles, the personal healing—and we feel like specks of dust at the base of a giant.

The Open Ear of Heaven Reference:: "The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their cry." — Ps 34:15 In a world that so often feels cold and indifferent, this single verse from David’s psalm rings out like a clear, unwavering bell.

When the psalmist says the Lord’s eyes are “on the righteous,” it’s not about distant watching but gentle protection. It’s the same kind of gaze described in 2 Chronicles 16:9—“the eyes of the Lord run to ...

Courtesy and Intercession Leading by Revathy SUBJECT: INVITATION: Monthly Intercessory Prayer – "Stay at the Tomb" (Aug 2026) Dear Prayer Warriors, There are moments in our walk with God when the greatest breakthrough comes, not from moving on, but from remaining where He has called us to be. In John 20, Mary Magdalene arrived at the tomb before dawn and found the stone rolled away. She ran to tell Peter and John, and together they hurried to the tomb. They saw the empty grave and the linen cloths lying there. Having witnessed what had happened, the disciples returned to their homes. But Mary stayed. She remained outside the tomb, weeping. She refused to leave, even when the answers were not yet clear. It was in that place of lingering that heaven opened to her. She saw two angels seated where Jesus had lain. Then, in the midst of her tears, the risen Lord Himself appeared and called her by name. Mary became the first person to encounter the resurrected Christ and the first m...
