HIGHER

Snippet

“You weren't put on earth to be remembered. You were put here to prepare for eternity.” ― Rick Warren, The Purpose-Driven Life: What on Earth Am I Here For?

Scripture

If you are then “risen” with Christ, reach out for the highest gifts of Heaven, where your master reigns in power. Give your heart to the heavenly things, not to the passing things of earth. Colossians 3:1,2 JB Phillips

Song
"Higher" by Lecrae
(feat. Tenth Avenue North)

[Chorus:]
Lead me higher, Lead me higher,
And lift my eyes up, to the Light way,
I can see all the pain coming, to an end
Lead me higher, into Your fire.
Burn away all of the desires.
And let my heart, beat again.
I feel myself rising high above my yesterdays.
Yes it pays just to praise standing in Your rays.
Sun shining reminding me that You rose
Reminding me that I'm Yours,
And wrapped in righteousness robes, ah.
Closer that I get to You the higher that I feel.
It's like my spirits been lifted outside the stratosphere.
Where death is powerless and pain will never lay a claim
And all the world will proclaim, Your name forever reigns.
Put desire inside of the fire in my bones.
Earth groans to see You return & take us Home.
Soul longs for "so long." I'm sold on: You on the Throne,
My life no longer my own, lead me high.
[Chorus]
Uh, it's Friday morning, I'm up too early.
I'm up too high, the sky below me.
Like I'm sitting in a plane feeling strange can't explain,
How I get to experience these things.
Been to plenty cities, spent pretty pennies, and ate
plenty. Fo,
Do a show, I come home and feel empty? No
It's never me, I'm glad to say I've been changed like   
presidential campaigns.
Used to wake up in the morning pursuing the wrong things,
Now I wake up in the morning pursuing the Lord's name.
Take me higher than the highest You're my hope and my desire.
Lifting me up high despite of this gravity lead me higher.

Sentence Prayer

Jesus
Praise to the resurrected one,
Lead me higher today
Take my mind off my gravity filled life
And keep my mind on higher things.
May this new mindset be a light to the lost
And an encouragement to the saints.

Amen R.M.
