Two quick things this morning.

One.  A prayer theme for today.

Equal Awakenings

Awakenings equal to the needs and messes in our lives and the lives of those we love and are trying to love.

Two. A Scripture to carry with us today:

20 Guard me and deliver me; do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in You.
21 May integrity and what is right watch over me, for I wait for You.

via Ps 25 HCSB – Psalm 25 Dependence on the LORD – Bible Gateway.

ABBA, thank You for always hearing our prayers. Lee and every soul affected. Israel. America. The election. Equal awakenings, ABBA, for each of us and for every one we hold dear and especially for those we are trying to hold dear.  Thank You for this word from Your WORD. Help us hold it dear and be guided and guarded by remembering and applying it this day. We invite and even expect You to watch over us today, guarding, correcting, loving, providing, forgiving, and growing us in the likeness of JESUS today.

Blessings to you Dear Friends    +++

Neediness

Good Monday morning Friends

Praying for souls to see their need to repent and start learning from JESUS how to live.

Matthew 11:28-30 New King James Version (NKJV)

28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

via Matthew 11:28-30 NKJV – Come to Me, all you who labor and are – Bible Gateway.

ABBA, You know my thoughts this morning; You know all our thoughts. You know our disappointments, our frustrations, stresses, needs, wants and lacks. Our fears for those we love who seem so oblivious to the lives they live. Forgive them, ABBA, and snatch them from the pit I pray. I pray we will come and learn from You JESUS. Learn how You lived in peace and joy and doing good in this hostile world. How You absolutely enjoyed living the GOD-MAN life that You lived for us; even knowing You were called the Man of Sorrows, You had peace, even joy in doing ABBA’s will so we could be free. That’s too big for me to comprehend, LORD, but I accept it. To be like You, JESUS. I am so mindful this morning of the great need that is for us. To be like You. To look at life the way You do. To analyze happenings with You. To take seriously this learning from You and learning to be like You. You know the faces before me this morning, please rescue them from themselves I pray. ABBA, we are all needy people, if only all of us could admit our neediness and learn from You. But, ABBA, I will not be discouraged. You are sovereign. You are GOD of all and Your Arm is not shortened that You cannot save. So I come myself and with all my needy ones and I present us for Your healing rescue in JESUS name.  And I’m not forgetting Israel. America. The election. The Humbling of Your People. Sick ones. Grieving ones. I am trusting You with it all, ABBA, and I am grateful for what You are doing in and for each one.

Blessings to you Dear Friends    +++

I’ve been reading this morning. I was determined to finish before I laid it down again. And I did. And I am recommending it to you.  The Traveler’s Gift by Andy Andrews.

Allow me to give you an excerpt from page 160:
“Sometimes when I sit with our Father and watch the movements of your civilization as the time shifts, I am astounded at the arrogance I see displayed in your people. On several occasions, I have asked permission to teach you a lesson, but so far, His patience has greatly exceeded my own. ”

And how about this on page 103:
“My life–my personality, my habits, even my speech–is a combination of the books I choose to read, the people I choose to listen to, and the thoughts I choose to tolerate in my mind. . . . “

And page 155:
“Circumstances are rulers of the weak, . . . “but they are weapons of the wise.”
“Circumstances do not push or pull. they are daily lessons to be studied and gleaned for new knowledge and wisdom.”

One more. Page 149: “All men are driven by faith or fear . . .    Faith or fear is the expectation of an event that hasn’t come to pass or the belief in something that cannot be seen or touched.
“Faith is to believe what one has not seen. The reward of faith is to see what one has believed.”

I am reminded of something Joyce Meyer has said many times. Fear is

False
Evidence
Appearing
Real

And just off the top of my head — does this work?  Faith is

Finding
Assurance and peace
In
The
Here and now (for what will be because our GOD said so.)

17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.
via Romans 10:16-18 KJ21 – But they have not all obeyed the – Bible Gateway.

18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.
via 1 John 4:17-19 NASB – By this, love is perfected with us, so – Bible Gateway.

Philippians 3:13-15 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
13 Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead,
14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, have this attitude; and if in anything you have a different attitude, God will reveal that also to you;
via Philippians 3:13-15 NASB – Brethren, I do not regard myself as – Bible Gateway.

And there you have it.

Blessings to you this Wednesday. I have prayed for each of you by name, email or blog name (whichever way you have identified yourself).

ABBA, thank You for servants who write so well and give us insights and much to ponder. And thank You for Your Word that is TRUTH and able to set us free. I pray this day for TRUTH to prevail in the lives of all my people. That Truth will take hold in their hearts and minds and hold sway over our lives, be believed and will set free and transform each one in JESUS name. And as before we bring our sick and afflicted, Dori and Sheila, specifically, along with others named, asking You to heal them. And as always until it be seen we pray for the rebellious for grace and space to repent. Amen and       .
