Step Into the Waters Devotional (Word from the Lord series)
by Marijo Phelps(233)
Seek Me and I hear your praises. Open your mouth and I will teach you what pleases Me.
Put your foot forward and I will give you strength, direction and freedom.
Have the desire, yield your will and I will fulfill that my Son might be glorified in what and who you are becoming in His name.
Have the desire and I, your God, will implement it as you relax in Me. My strength takes over as you release your all to me.
Your work is ashes but My work in you through my Spirit brings forth life.
