Dear
Saints,
Today
we prayerfully Feast in the book of 2
Samuel 1. Today not only do we start 2nd
Samuel, we also are on our 8th
Anniversary of The Feast. The Feast started and still is an easy
prayerful read through God's Word. As you know I do not accept
monetary donations, God continues to provide. I thank Jesus and
you the Saints for sharing this ministry with me. I still accept
prayer as well as maintain a prayer list for your praise and
prayer requests.
2nd
Samuel An Overview;
“This
book is the history of the reign of king David. It relates his
victories, the growth of the prosperity of Israel, and his
reformation of the state of religion. With these events are
recorded the grievous sins he committed, and the family as well as
public troubles with which he was punished. We here meet with many
things worthy of imitation, and many that are written for our
warning. The history of king David is given in Scripture with much
faithfulness, and from it he appears, to those who fairly balance
his many virtues and excellent qualities against his faults, to
have been a great and good man.”
Matthew Henry Commentary on the Whole Bible (Concise). Lord
willing we will continue
together
feasting on every word in God's Holy Word, until Jesus comes
again.

“40
DAYS OF PRAYER- DAY 36
SCRIPTURE:
2 CHRONICLES 15:1-7
Then
Azariah son of Obed, moved by the Spirit of God,
2
went out to meet Asa. He said, "Listen carefully, Asa, and
listen Judah and Benjamin: GOD will stick with you as long as
you stick with him. If you look for him he will let himself be
found; but if you leave him he’ll leave you.
3
For a long time Israel didn’t have the real God, nor did they
have the help of priest or teacher or book.
4
But when they were in trouble and got serious, and decided to
seek GOD, the God of Israel, GOD let himself be found.
5
At that time it was a dog-eat-dog world; life was constantly up
for grabs—no one, regardless of country, knew what the next
day might bring.
6
Nation battered nation, city pummeled city. God let loose every
kind of trouble among them.
7
“But it’s different with you: Be strong. Take heart. Payday
is coming!"
DEVOTIONAL
CHALLENGE:
Today
we are given a portrait of our nation in 2012. We desperately
need revival in our nation and world. Great revivals have often
begun in times of spiritual and moral darkness. Conditions of
gross darkness prevailed before revivals under such leaders as
Asa (2 chronicles 15:1-15), Joash (2 Kings 11, 12), Hezekiah (2
chronicles 29-13), Josiah (2 Kings 22, 23), Zurubbabel (Ezra5,
6), (Nehemiah 8:9; 12:44-47). Notice the people were quality of
idolatry, neglect of and in some cases contempt for the house
of God, unjust and sometimes cruel treatment to fellow
Israelites, entangling alliances and associations with heathen
nations, and the practice of spiritualism and forms of occult.
Against this backdrop of ungodliness there existed those who
were earnestly looking to the Lord for intervention. Notice
that these people were never disappointed. God came to the
rescue when his people seek Him with the whole heart. I love
verse seven when it reminds us “But
it’s different with you: Be strong, Take Heart. PAYDAY
IS COMING!””
Prayer
Request (1st
published 10-5-2012)
“I
have a prayer request. There's a lady I've known forever. She's
very sick. On top of that, she's being abused by those to whom
she has given everything..... Lies about her abound, and seem
to come from all sides. Just breaks my heart. Seems there's
nothing I can do alone but maybe, if we join in and lift her up
together, we can heal her. She's well over 230 years old, but
way too young to die. Her name is 'America'... And I love her
and have always been proud of her. Please take time to say a
prayer for her - even if it is a short, simple prayer like,
"Lord, please heal our land. Amen." Thanks! [Prayer
from the internet-Sept 2012] ”

Always
remember you were called by the Holy Spirit, a gift from God,
Jesus paid the full price to redeem you. You are chosen by God,
to live a purpose filled life, in our godly nation. No matter who
leads our nation we follow the Lord. We continue to keep the
first thing first, salvation through the blood of the lamb, Jesus.
“But
you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,
His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him
who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;”
1 Peter 2:9 NKJV.
