How Majestic is Your Name

Psalm 8:9 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! There are no words to explain the Beauty of what I have experienced this past week. Hundreds of thousands of people have been to the Smokey Mountains and have experienced the beauty of it, but for me it was so much more than that. It was a time of refreshing, many moments soaking in His Presence. From sitting on the porch swing watching the sun rise over the lake, to waking up every morning hearing the birds singing outside of my window, to watching the clouds cover the tips of the mountain, God was there. I had amazing company with me that made this experience even better, we laughed, we cried, we shared, we prayed and the whole week we worshiped. We sang of His praises while making breakfast, we worshiped while driving though the cove, but this was all about being in a state of receiving. Receiving every moment of His Peace and Grace. Being so hungry for more of His Majestic Glory, for more of His wisdom and love. For hearing His voice through every sound the mountains make.

Every drop of rain reminded me of how thirsty I was for more of Jesus. I honestly cannot put into words what I’m feeling in my spirit at this moment. I am truly still in awe of His Majesty. I never want to forget how this moment feels to me, how grateful I am to Him for allowing me that time to be refreshed and rejuvenated to move forward in His will for my life. From the Mountains, to the people, to the church service, there was a freedom that just blew me away. It placed in me a new thing, an excitement to walk out my own freedom. Free to be whatever God is calling me to be. Free from other people’s expectations of who they think I should be. Free to operate in the gifts He has placed in me. Free to be me without shame or judgement.

There may be times I will walk out a little nervousness, but a part of my refreshing was being set free of all the religious expectations others have placed on me, or that I have placed on myself. Being free from all the negative words spoken over me and knowing who my Father say’s I am. I am not my own and I have been bought with a price. My Jesus didn’t shed His blood for me, for me to allow myself to be hindered by others, or by my own insecurities. The same goes for all of you. It’s time to rise up and make sure His great sacrifice doesn’t go un noticed. My prayer is that you allow the Lord to bring you to a place of understanding His great love for you. I don’t know where that may be or what it will look like for you, but I believe if you ask it will be given unto you. Allow yourselves to be lavished in the presence of His Majesty.
