The God Of This City

"God Of This City"

You're the God of this city
You're the King of these people
You're the Lord of this nation
You Are

You're the light in this darkness
You're the hope to the hopeless
You're the peace to the restless
You are

For there is no one like our God
There is no one like You God

For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done
In this city
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here

You're the Lord of Creation
The Creator of all things
You're the King above all kings
You Are

You're the strength in our weakness
You're the love to the broken
You're the joy in the sadness
You Are

For greater things have yet to come
Greater things are still to be done
In this city
When glory shines from hearts alive
With praise for You and love for You
In this city

Greater things have yet to come
Greater things are still to be done
In this city
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here.

This song has become my new favorites. The lyrics are powerful, telling of a God who is in control of this world, even though we may not see it with our eyes. There are so many things I have been praying for, for quite some time. God has spoken to me and said there are greater things in the works that God is planning. There are things happening in the Heavenlies that we just cannot see. I must wait for Him and He will reveal it all in His perfect timing! I am to trust God, that He knows what He is doing. Even as we speak, He is knocking on the door of people's hearts, He is working through circumstances, He is shaking things up - for HIS glory!!

Habakkuk 2:2-3 is so encouraging in this area of waiting:

"Then the Lord said to me,
“Write my answer plainly on tablets,
so that a runner can carry the correct message to others.
This vision is for a future time.
It describes the end, and it will be fulfilled.
If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently,
for it will surely take place.
It will not be delayed."

May the King of Kings renew strength as you wait upon Him, not upon the thing you are waiting for. Simply wait on God. He will fulfill all of His promises!
