ABBA, Presently, I am praising You for Dori’s progress and trusting for much more recovery. And presently remembering also other saints who have received reports that are impossible to bear reports without Your goodness and grace poured out on them. Don comes to mind. Kerri and Diana too. Lily, oh ABBA, that precious little child – no way for her Mom and Dad to get their understanding around this. So I pray they will lean not to their own understanding but in all this acknowledge You and lean on You and allow You to lead and guide them through this. And Lily, still I pray for her full recovery and restoration to her family. And the specific unspokens, oh there are more than a few of those within this IDOK circle and I confess for all who are in agreement that we trust You to attend our specifics specifically as only You can. Thank You for every home into which this post will appear, I pray for the knowledge of You to increase in each place, and in each home and life as needed lavish them with grace, mercy, conviction, repentance, restoration, mending and healing, and a hunger and thirst for righteousness, on and on, LORD, You know the needs in detail. I am rejoicing that You are willing and I pray we shall be too. Amen and amen in Your Name, JESUS.

I’m still off my beaten path this morning and I have my doubts that I am firing on all pistons (hmmm, that’s not much of an explanation; when am I ever firing on all pistons?) But ABBA always is.
I read Psalm 17, among other passages, and one verse in particular I read over and over, but before I leave you with that one let us consider a portion of David’s Prayer recorded for us to see the heart of David here.
6 I have called upon You, for You will hear me, O God; Incline Your ear to me, and hear my speech.
7 Show Your marvelous lovingkindness by Your right hand, O You who save those who trust in You From those who rise up against them.
8 Keep me as the apple of Your eye; Hide me under the shadow of Your wings,
9 From the wicked who oppress me, From my deadly enemies who surround me.
10 They have closed up their fat hearts; With their mouths they speak proudly.
11 They have now surrounded us in our steps; They have set their eyes, crouching down to the earth,
12 As a lion is eager to tear his prey, And like a young lion lurking in secret places.
These should be comforting words to us whatever the source of opposition or pain. Our God is well aware of the ‘fat hearts’ around us; He is well aware that the guns have been aimed and Christians are in the ‘site’ of the ungodly BUT
14 . . . From men of the world who have their portion in this life,
Have their portion in this life; and then David said:
15 As for me, I will see Your face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied when I awake in Your likeness.
As for me, I will. As for you, you will Choose to see that our God is righteous in ALL that He allows and in ALL that He does and the more like Him we yield ourselves to be the more satisfied we are in the here and now AND one day when we AWAKEN at HOME we will be like HIM!
Remember our promise:
Deut 30:6 And the LORD your God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your descendants, to love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live.
Amen and Amen
Brave the Dark with the LIGHT,
