daily prayer

  Good morning! How are we faithing?  The gathering storm is gonna be a big one. I am not trying to strike fear or cause worry but we can watch and see the world and where it's headed. It is headed fast to destruction and even though we are saved by grace, we still endure the effects of a sinful world. This is a long hard journey sometimes and we need to remain in the Word if we expect to survive. If we allow the worlds views to permeate or water down the Word we are in for more grief and more physical and mental maladies. Here it is in a nutshell, if it is contrary to the Word, it is wrong. No personal judgment on anyone, just the truth. Lots of us do things unbeknown  to be sins but when we find out, that's when we are accountable. Not saved by doing right but we will reap what we sow. Do not take that as a slam or judgemental at all because it isn't anything but truth and truth sets us free. Take the time to seek out truth in the Word this weekend. Listen to the Holy Spirit and don't fall for rationalizations if they lead to contrary actions to the Word. Lots of stuff I've discovered to be sin and my flesh wasn't happy when I made the choice to follow what the Word teaches. We all make discoveries in the Word but whether we apply what we learn or not, that is important.

Romans 8:28-39

And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first-born among many brethren; and whom He predestined, these He also called; and whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.
What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things? Who will bring a charge against God's elect? God is the one who justifies; who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Just as it is written,
   "For Thy sake we are being put to death all day long;
   We were considered as sheep to be slaughtered."
But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

 Heavenly Father,
  Thank you for peace and love that transcends all. Teach us to apply your Word to everything. Lord we lift those who are hurting this day. Heal and comfort them. Lord I ask for healing for spouses. Heal minds and bodies so they may live according to your Word. We ask for intervention for maladies we don't recognise, grant the doctors wisdom and revelation to heal. In Jesus name, amen
