You, O Yahweh, you are worthy of honor and praise, you are worthy of fearing and obeying, “For the LORD is the great God, the great King above all gods” (Ps. 95:3).

You are the One who is actually in charge;

you are Ruler and Director,

Sovereign and Limit Maker,

Controller and King--nothing happens without your permission.

You allow only what contributes to your plans, to bring glory to your name by sweeping all willing into your Dominion,

And you protect, equip, mature, break and deepen those who are in your Kingdom of Light.

You have evil on a short leash, able to do only what you will use to bring your plans to pass—primarily to bring people to their senses, to belief, to salvation.

You cannot be defeated: there is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against you (Ps. 33:10,11).

Your power is unimaginable,

your grasp of detail is mind-boggling,

going from the miniscule to the mighty,

from subatomic to super-galactic,

from counting hairs and watching sparrows,

to moving the universe and history to your desired conclusion.

I praise you, heavenly Father, that in your compassion and grace, your patience and wisdom, your power and love, you are able and ready to transform, train and teach each of your saints.
