Never imagine God is swayed by the legisltaion of our denominations. He is not impressed with our bylaws and what we allow and don't allow. God moves into action, and when he sees people rightly related and under HIS SWAY, it is there that he commands a blessing.
Lisa Bevere from Lioness Arising
Under His sway...swaying...When I hear this word, I think of waves--swaying back and forth. There is a rythmn; there is an order; there is control. And from these, there is peace. The waves naturally move to His commands, for His purposes. Even when the swaying becomes rough, choppy, turbulent--the order, the rythmn and control are still there. It's as if the waves are aware of his sovereign power and remain in His dominion, His sway, no matter the situation.
I find there are so many forces in this world pulling me--fear, doubt, worry. And I have fallen under their sway too many times, where there is control but without order and rythmn--without peace. So, I have a new prayer. I will arise each morning and ask my creator, My Father, to keep me under His sway--where I might rock back and forth in His commands and purpose.
Have a blessed day!
