daily prayer

               Good morning! How are we faithing? Check this out. Read it before but this really spoke this morning;


Luke 9:49-50
And John answered and said, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name; and we tried to hinder him because he does not follow along with us." But Jesus said to him, "Do not hinder him; for he who is not against you is for you."
NAS


Even though denominational bickering still goes on, I have seen so many different walks of people who do all profess Jesus, working together. I am in awe that when I go to see and hear a man of God that there are people who would argue about "church" things but when it comes down to it, they all know Jesus as their personal savior! Here's what I see; the arguments over procedure and order of service and how to run things etc are taking a back seat to Jesus. Amen! I think some things need to be done one way but it isn't worth or even important enough to split or fight each other over. Jesus is Lord. We who believe know this. We have an advocate, a friend, a companion, a savior and arguments beyond that become quite silly. The Apostles bickered over stuff and Jesus helped them refocus to what matters.


1 Corinthians 12:3
Therefore I make known to you, that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus is accursed"; and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.
NAS


See that? Do you see how simple the plan is? Do you remember that the Holy Spirit indwells us who believe and accept the grace of Jesus? Do you see Jesus not making distinction over inconsequential junk but reminding us that the Holy Spirit resides in us? Even Moses recognised this.


Numbers 11:27-29
So a young man ran and told Moses and said, "Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp." Then Joshua the son of Nun, the attendant of Moses from his youth, answered and said, "Moses, my lord, restrain them." But Moses said to him, "Are you jealous for my sake? Would that all the Lord's people were prophets, that the LORD would put His Spirit upon them!"
NAS

 
Rejoice  over this salvation! Pay attention to what matters and don't get bent out of shape over someone elses idiosyncrasies when the same spirit is in them as in you and me.
 
 
Remember Sebastion and family...remember Baily and family...remember Aleigha's family...remember Anna
 
 
Heavenly Father,
   Thank you for your love and grace that saves us all when we receive you. Lord, help us see truth and your light. Lord we lift up those people hurting today. We lift those who are struggling with emotional maladies, physical maladies and mental maladies.  Show yourself to them. Heal them in a way they cannot deny it is you doing it. Lord we lift this country and all the troops to you. Bring us back to you. In Jesus' name, amen
