For Such a Time as This

How many in the youth generation (all those under 35) have heard about how we are a chosen generation? Well, whoever told you is right! We are the generation that is flowing in the new wine and bringing God to the nations in a way never seen before. God is using us to flow deep into the places that people were afraid to go before. God is making history with this generation. Bondages are being broken because we are the generation with the faith to truly believe that when God says Nothing is impossible, we are going to believe HIM!!! We are gonna change the World!! Do not be afraid to rise up and shout it out from the top of your longs. We, us WE are a chosen generation!!!

Em C
I can hear the footsteps of my King
G D
I can hear His heartbeat beckoning
In my darkness He has set me free
And now I hear the Spirit calling me

Em
Wake up child
C
Its your turn to shine you
G D
You were born for such a time as this

I can hear a Holy rumbling
I’ve begun to preach another King
Loosing chains and breaking down the walls
I want to hear the Father when He calls

Em
This is the Anthem of our generation
C
Here we are God shake our nation
G
All we need is your love
D
You captivate me

I am royalty
I have destiny
I have been set free
I’m gonna change history

Crying Out

One of the first steps in becoming a new believer in Christ is repentence, but even after salvation, there is need to cry out to God and say, "God, I have been lost, and I need Your mercy and Your grace every day of my life."


We Cry Out
Brian Johnson



D#m F# C#
Oh Lord, we cry out, we’ve been lost
G#m D#m
We need your mercies, oh God
F# C# G#m D#m F# C# G#m
We repent for our ways and we turn to you again
D#m F# C#
Oh Lord, we cry out, we’ve been lost
G#m D#m
Change our hearts to yours, oh God
F# C# G#m D#m F# C# G#m
We repent for our sin and we turn to you again

Chorus:
G#m F# C#
Oh God, we cry out, for your mercy
G#m F# C#
Oh God, we cry out, for your grace
G#m F# C#
Oh God, we cry out, set us free
G#m F# D#m F# C# G#m
Oh God, we cry out, once again

How He Loves Us

I think I've said it before, but it certainly bares repeating. God loves us so much. It really is amazing how much he loves us. Everything He has done has been for love. Amazing really.

Kim Walker Chord Charts

Kim Walker has graciously added some of my fav songs chord charts on her website (please add more) ;). (Click Here). One that I sing all the time when I lead worship or at home is I Surrender. There is such a strong anointing and presence when you say to God, "I surrender."

I SURRENDER
By: Kim Walker and Justin Byrne

Verse:
C Gsus Am G
There is no love, sweeter than the love you pour on me
C Gsus Am G
There is no song, sweeter than the song you sing to me
C Gsus Am G
There is no place, that I would rather be
C Gsus Am G
Than here at your feet, laying down everything

Chorus:
Am Gsus
All to you, I surrender
C/E F
Everything, every part of me
Am Gsus
All to you, I surrender
C/E F (HOLD F BACK TO VERSE)
All of my dreams, all of me
Am G F F (REPEAT)
I surrender

Verse 2:
If worship’s like perfume, I’ll pour mine out on you
For there is none as deserving of my love like you
So take my hand and draw me into you
I want to be swept away, lost in love for you

Bridge:
F G
No turning back, I’ve made up my mind
F G C/E (REPEAT)
I’m giving all of my life this time

C#m B
Boldly before your throne

Set watchmen on the wall
And keep, Keep them now standing tall
Set me apart from this world
I’m coming, I’m coming home


I’m taking back, Taking back my authority……….

Shake the heavens Lord
With forty days of war
Break rebellion, send revival to America

Break Rebellion, Send Revival

Remembering

I was just remembering those days when my son was oh so tiny. It is amazing how something so tiny can grow up into the five year old he is today.

Older people, who's children have grown old, always remind me and other young parents, to cherish them when they are so small, but I have found wonder in each footstep they take. From the moment they are born, each day is a treasure within itself (and some days you just cannot wait to be over).

My daughter is two now, and I love this age. She started her terrible 2's when she was two weeks old, so I am used to any tantrums she could possibly throw, but her sweetness at this age is immeasurable. Lately she's been walking around the house saying, "I'm a princess," and I say back, "Yes you are." How sweet is that??
