IDOK DEVOTION FOR FRIDAY, JUNE 11, 2010

Brainwashing.
Not a term looked upon with approval, usually.  But I’ve come to think of it as a most favorable word.
Moreover, I propose to you that a thorough job of brainwashing needs to commence immediately. Here’s our first dose, found in Isaiah 43:4.  Primarily written to Israel but surely applies to you and me.  Let us pour it onto and into our brains (minds) until it floods our souls and changes the way our hands and feet walk out this Christian life.

Since you are precious in My sight, Since you are honored and I love you, . . .   .

The minds of  ‘men’ have become corrupt and filthy — they do not believe the Love of GOD.  If they did this world would be a much cleaner, safer place to live!  There’s no doubt about it!   The world needs brainwashing with the WATER OF THE WORD!
Bring on the King James or whatever translation reads well to you, HOLY WATER, and start washing!  We in the Body of Christ are dirtier than we think!!  Gab the WORD as though you are a sponge and start washing!
The coming generations will die of filth if we don’t.

We are all appalled and rightly so at the filth and death the oil spill is bringing to our shores … SIN is worldwide bringing more filth and death than any oil spill.
We are appalled at the lack of cleanup and the lack of putting a cap on it and rightly so!
Where’s our aghast at our lack of washing with the WATER OF THE WORD that will eternally clean a soul and snatch her/him from hell?

And yet HE says:[still]  you are precious in My sight, [still] you are honored and I love you, . . .   .

Would to God that His kindness would lead His Church to repentance.
Pray for repentance for ourselves and lost sinners.

ABBA, I can only ask that You convince us of Your Love and our need for washing and that we stand in the FLOOD of Your Word until we are so squeaky clean, that the filth of the world will not stick to us; we will instantly repel it and our aroma is so pleasant and compelling that the peoples of the world in our individual worlds come and say what is that fragrance and where can I get some of it? Oh, ABBA, I would LOVE for that to happen all over the  Church.  Please, Holy Spirit, do not let me rest until I do what is required of me so it will be so.  Amen and Amen in JESUS’ NAME.

And, ABBA, we dare not forget to bring our IDOK Troops for prayer.  Prayer for strength to live godly in an ungodly world.  And prayer for peace and safety in a hostile world.  Protect them, LORD, I pray.  And for all those faces and needs represented by a name You know on our list, we pray for them; we love on them in Your Name LORD JESUS, asking You to comfort them, train them, teach them, and heal them. Amen and amen.
