National Day of Prayer!

I cannot think of anything that America needs more than prayer – the prayer of repentance.

14 if My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

via 2 Chronicles 7 KJ21;CJB – Now when Solomon had made an end of – Bible Gateway.

I have many concerns for America. She has many sins. These are grievous and dark days. BUT JESUS is STILL the LIGHT of the WORLD.

5 And this is the message which we have heard from him and proclaim to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him — none!
6 If we claim to have fellowship with him while we are walking in the darkness, we are lying and not living out the truth.
7 But if we are walking in the light, as he is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of his Son Yeshua purifies us from all sin.
8 If we claim not to have sin, we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we acknowledge our sins, then, since he is trustworthy and just, he will forgive them and purify us from all wrongdoing.
10 If we claim we have not been sinning, we are making him out to be a liar, and his Word is not in us.

19 We know that we are from God, and that the whole world lies in the power of the Evil One.
20 And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us discernment, so that we may know who is genuine; moreover, we are united with the One who is genuine, united with his Son Yeshua the Messiah. He is the genuine God and eternal life.
21 Children, guard yourselves against false gods!

21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen.

Be Hidden in CHRIST,

ABBA, forgive America for She does not know; her eyes have been blinded; the scales upon her eyes are thick and heavy;  I pray, HOLY SPIRIT, that You will help all of us to be willing to take off the blinders and see the TRUTH.  I pray for mercy. I pray for grace and space to repent. I know it is not Your will that any person die lost. Thank You that You are willing to save. Forgive us, ABBA, and please save America. HOLY SPIRIT, please convince we the people of sin, righteousness and judgment to come in the Mighty name of JESUS. I know You are have enough mercy to go around; I know You have enough love and forgiveness for even those we deem the worst of us; I pray You will send revival to the CHURCH and repentance to the Nation. Amen and amen.

I have a smorgasbord of thoughts this morning.

Remembering a conversation. One was so weary; weary of the wrongdoing of another; particularly that Other from all appearances continues to reap no adversity for the evil committed.

Keep pushing me, ABBA.
Spoken from a grateful heart. So grateful for the prodding(s) of the HOLY SPIRIT. Make that phone call. Make that phone call. But I don’t have time to do what we said we would do. Make the phone call.  Phone called made. Oh what a relief!! Worries gone. New mutual plan so good! Oh, ABBA, thank You. Thank You. Keep pushing me!

I will not leave you as an orphan.
When my beloved read those words from the WORD this morning my heart latched on to them. I will not leave you as an orphan. HE has not nor shall HE ever forsake me. Or any man, woman, boy or girl who has said YES, LORD YESHUA I will ‘marry’ You. I will enter into this holy covenant with You. Yes, I take Your gift of righteousness; and yes, here are my sins. I see You have taken the penalty of them for me.
I will not leave you as an orphan. I will surely come for you.
Amen and amen.

Got a smorgasbord this morning? Sit and dine. :)

Be Hidden in CHRIST,

Thank You, ABBA, for a smorgasbord of delight, comfort, correction, instruction, well-being and promises. Thank You for prodding(s). I invite You to keep pushing me. Keep pushing me. I love You, ABBA. And I have some loved ones to bring for healing and blessing and forgiveness and correction and help and mercy and encouragement and strength for this day. And for whomever comes here to read or pray, should they too need healing, need to forgive, need correction, help of any kind, mercy, encouragement, just strength for the day, I pray each will bow and receive that very gift from Your Loving Hands and Heart. Amen and amen. 

Prayer Requests

Today is pet scan day for our Jamie. Loving thoughts and prayers appreciated.

The following is Jamie’s recent Facebook status. See why we love her so!

Well my friends, much to my dismay, I am not invincible after all. After many tests and long days at the hospital, the “stuff” I was thinking was pneumonia in my lungs ended up being cancerous. Many more tests to see exactly where the stupid stuff is coming from, but we will have answers soon. Good news is, it’s not lung cancer, it has just spread there. I will give updates as they come to me and just wanted to let everyone know so that I could have as many prayers going up as possible. I know this is a long hard battle to fight, but I’m ready. Let’s fight it and see what amazing things God can do through this! In all of the chaos of the past few days, I know one constant. And that is Jesus Christ. He is the same today, yesterday and forever. He is not surprised nor taken aback by this. Nor is my God far away, sitting in Heaven, wondering what to do next. He’s right here with me. I can feel Him. He’s real folks. I knew this all along. I’m praying fervently that I will do His will through this process and have a Christ like attitude that never fades. There’s a purpose and a plan in this that has existed since the beginning of time. I don’t understand it, but I don’t have to. Faith. Faith. Faith. God and His ways are so much bigger than me and cancer. Remember that. Love to you all.

28 “Come to me, all of you who are struggling and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

via Matt 11 NASB;CJB – John’s Questions – When Jesus had – Bible Gateway.

I would say our Jamie has done this very thing. Let us join her.

ABBA, thank You. In You we place our trust. And not only for Jamie but all of us. We trust Your love and Your plans and we thank You for our hope and our future in CHRIST ALONE.
