An Invitation

To visit KAT’s Meows.  I’m grieving and I needed a place to vent.  If you are not in a frame of mind to hear me expressing my heart about adultery, there’s no need to visit right now.   But you might hold it in mind for a time when you might need to pass it along to someone else.

Love and holy hugs, Kat. . .

Amenable

IDOK DEVOTION FOR TUESDAY, AUGUST 24, 2010

FOR PRAYER AND PRAISE:

Baby Ryder only needs oxygen now when he is sleeping and he weights 8 pounds and 6 ounces.  ‘Ain’t’ GOD good?!!

Her name is Destinee, not yet even a toddler and life is unspeakable for her.  Please pray for wisdom and courage for those who can to be not afraid and do what must be done and pray for protection and rescue for Destinee.

ABBA, You know how this day started, You know how it is ending. You know the phone calls and the emails that have come in.  You know the hurting families.  You know the rebellious hard-hearted folks that are causing indescribable grief and pain to others and something in us wants them stopped.  We want little ones and young ones to be rescued. We want older folks who know better but who are so selfish and self-centered that they just keep on inflicting wounds that they will never be able to heal.  Wounds that only You will be able to heal.  And I am asking You now to heal these little ones and  I am asking You to arrest the perpetrators, that You apprehend them and stop the abuse.  And LORD even as You prayed I pray for mercy; not because I think they deserve it, because I know they don’t but LORD I have never deserved Your mercy and yet You have given it.  So I pray for transformations for these offending souls.  I pray Holy Spirit, that You will bring on the ‘fiery serpents’ but only if that is all that will bring them to repentance.  I pray their hearts will be made tender and they will accept You and Your mercy.  Thank You for this excellent report on Baby Ryder.  We are delighted and grateful.  Thank You.  And there are others on my mind too.  You know my heart.  You know my desire is for relief, pain relief and a remedy for whatever is causing the pain and for full restoration to come quickly.  And there’s a whole list of Praying for These, all of them need something and I pray that very something they need that You will supply it and that they will give You glory for doing it.  And there’s our IDOK Troops, still praying for them to be safe and well. For each of them to come home safe and sound at the appointed time.  And I pray for Israel, for peace and protection and safety.  And for Your Church, I pray for revival and for America I pray for repentance and salvation. And for our IDOKs I pray for rest and peace and for ‘fire in our bones’ to worship and minister the Gospel in JESUS Name.  Amen and amen.

Most often the word amenable is applied to wives; that we are to be amenable to our husbands.  That is to be willing to comply. To be open to acting a certain way. And I agree.  But I am suggesting here that ABBA is looking for all His children – men, women, boys and girls to be amenable to Him.  To be willing to comply with whatever He speaks to us.  To be open to acting in whatever means and manners that will exalt the LORD JESUS.

It is not only the woman who would do well to have a quiet spirit, but men too.  For all of us to BE STILL before our God and KNOW that it is HE who is God and not us.

Psalm 46: (NASB) 10“Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

Matthew 11: Amplified Bible 29Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle (meek) and humble (lowly) in heart, and you will find rest (relief and ease and refreshment and recreation and blessed quiet) for your souls.
