IDOK for Thursday, November 18, 2010
I am telling you by faith that I have turned the corner toward getting well. I was feeling more confident of that earlier in the day than I am at this writing, but still, I am improving and I thank you so much for your prayers!
November 18 is a special day for me. It’s my spiritual birthday. Right about 9:00 PM November 18, 1975 is when JESUS saved me. You’d think after 35 years I’d be much more mature than I am, BUT I shall not dwell on that, rather I thank Him that I am not where I was and not yet where I will be!
So today I am asking you to contemplate your re-birth. Perhaps you do not recall the day, date, and time as I do, but you do recall JESUS lifting your sins from your shoulders and replacing them with His Righteousness. Remember and rejoice today that you have been forgiven and Heaven is your home!
And if you would like to read again (or for the 1st time) my salvation story, go to I Remember the Day. This particular writing was done 2 years ago.
Earlier today (Wednesday), Joann Givhan, gained SIGHT of the promise of eternal life. Please pray for her family as they learn to adjust to life here without her.
1 John 5: (New American Standard Bible) 12He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life. 13These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.
There are no words, LORD JESUS, that would be adequate enough to thank You for saving me 35 years ago and keeping me saved forever. Thank You. I pray now for every reader who comes to this page that perchance You bring someone who is lost, that You, HOLY SPIRIT, will convince him or her of their need to be saved and that You are more than willing and able to save them now and forever.
Thank You for taking Joanne HOME and now I pray for Ed as he finishes his course here without her. I pray for his comfort and strength to be meet for his days and we pray for friends and family that they will find their comfort and strength in You. Also, I want to remember again all those on our lists. You know every need, every heart and face; I pray they will know and believe You. I ask again that You continue to protect our IDOK Troops and to bring them home safe and sound; I pray also for Israel, for peace and safety for them; and I pray for an Awakening of the American People to You. HOLY SPIRIT, please pour out Your Spirit of conviction and conversion upon this Nation from shore to shore, North, South, East, and West in JESUS NAME. Amen and amen.
Holy hugs, kt
