FIRST PLACE
~ Georganna W. Lewis
Lord, please give me your strength and divine
guidance to help me run this race.
I am determined to finish and take first place.
I have been running this race for such a long time
and along the way, I stumbled and fell behind.
I have since reentered the race, and the Holy Spirit has
catapulted me back into my rightful space.
Lord, I thank you for your mercy and grace,
for I declare I have already won by faith.
Yes, I know that there are still many races to run.
Nevertheless, my faith assures me that you
will keep me strong.
Lord, I boldly confess your glory.
Hallelujah! Victory is my story!
Yes, I will forever praise your name
for the ultimate price you paid.
Heavenly Father, your holy word ensures me
that victory through Christ will always be my story.
It was only by grace “I am” guaranteed first place!
But, they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up wings as eagles: they shall run and not get weary;
and they shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31 ~ KJV
