daily prayer

   Good morning! How are we faithing? Alot of people are missing what lies behind the events in the world these days. Alot of misconceptions, lies and outright deception abounds all around us. When ones agenda is more important than truth, history and events are spun to back a particular view or ideology. I do not want to turn this into a side taking rant but only to inform. If you read the Word and look at what has taken place in the past you can see mankind has not changed. They still put selfish ideals before others. We're not talking self preservation or defense here but daily actions that hurt others and please self for no other reason than self gratification. Some events on the news seem simple but when you think about the ramifications you can see one simple event begat bigger things. Our words do the same. If we diss someone over  idiotic minuscule things, that word could grow into something much bigger in the receivers mind. With that in mind we must be careful and ask questions like; "who benefits from this statement?" "Is my speaking this now going to help or hinder?"
Paul said all things are permissible but not all things are beneficial. We are living in times of  people in power pushing their ideas and we need to be aware of heresy. We need to be focused and alert to ideas that lead us and others away from the light of God. There just so many ideas that seem so nice and good that are actually contrary to the Word.


Matthew 24:4-12
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
KJV


James 5:1-3
 Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries which are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten. Your gold and your silver have rusted; and their rust will be a witness against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have stored up your treasure!
NAS

All I am trying to tell you all is to be alert and think before you react. Ask the questions in the interest of others. Don't be fooled simply because of ones stature or place in the world.

Heavenly Father,
  Open our eyes to truth. Grant us the wisdom to see what is truth and what is lies. Let us not act on pure emotion or feel good ideas but let us separate ourselves and act holy and in accordance with the Word. Lord we lift those mentioned to you today, heal, touch them and let it be known the miracle of your wonderful will, in Jesus name, amen
