Who Told You That?

IDOK DEVOTION FOR THURSDAY, JUNE 10, 2010

Praise Reports, Prayer Requests and Updates:

It appears to me the first question asked in Scripture was posed by Satan. Genesis 3:1Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Indeed, has God said, ‘You shall not eat from any tree of the garden’?”

Our dear sister Eve did not ask any questions, neither did Adam.  The next question was God’s question.  9Then the LORD God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?”

Not because He did not know but obviously Adam did not know and he needed to know.  And the next question is the point I am hoping to make.

11And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? . . .  .

The question ABBA asked Adam is a question asked of me today via the writing of Jennifer Beckham in her book Get Over Yourself. It is a question we would do well to answer regarding every negative thing we have believed about ourselves.  Specifically on page 47 she posed to me: “Who told you that you were not wonderfully amazing?”   It’s a mind changing, even life changing question – depending on how we answer it.

Psalm 139: (GOD’S WORD Translation)14I will give thanks to you
because I have been so amazingly and miraculously made.
Your works are miraculous, and my soul is fully aware of this.

Jennifer further penned: “It certainly wasn’t God.  So whoever it was, they were lying, speaking against God’s Truth.”

ABBA, forgive us for listening and believing them rather than You.  Can all my IDOKs and Readers say amen?!

Who told you that you were __________?   You fill in the negative and refuse to believe it again in JESUS Name for HIS sake.

Thank You, ABBA, for Jennifer.  Thank You for the gifts You have given her to share with us.  Thank You for opening eyes and hearts to Your Truth.  I pray Your Truth will become OUR Truth.

I pray You will keep our IDOK Troops safe from all harm; I pray they will seek after You with all their hearts and I pray they will all come home safe and sound.

I pray for Israel.  You know the oppositions they face as a Nation.  You know how to deliver them and I pray for their delivery to soon be complete.  I pray for the many on our list and ask that each receive the help, comfort, guidance, healing, jobs, debt retirement, encouragement, revelation, remedies, whatever it is I pray  they shall receive it in Your Name, LORD JESUS. Amen and amen.
