Today’s Feast
Dec. 22,
2015 – II Samuel 8
Do We Pray For Our Leaders?
Please join with us sharing
God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and
reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years.
“And in the same region there were shepherds out in
the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord
appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were
filled with great fear. And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I
bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto
you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. ” Luke 2:8-11, English Standard Version (ESV).
Dear Saints,
Thank you for
joining us, as we prayerfully continue the Feast in 2nd Samuel Chapter
8; “David subdues the Philistines, the Moabites, and the Syrians. (1-8) The spoil dedicated. (9-14) David's government and officers. (15-18) ” - Matthew
Henry Concise.
David defeated the
Philistine, the Moabites, and David also defeated Hadadezer the Syrians. The
spoil is dedicated to the Lord. David’s wisely appoints government officials,
officers and priests. “15 So David reigned over all
Israel. And David administered justice and equity to all his people. 16Joab
the son of Zeruiah was over the army, and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was
recorder, 17 and Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar
were priests, and Seraiah was secretary, 18 and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada
was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and David’s sons were priests.” 2
Samuel 8:15-18, ESV. As of late I have fallen into the trap of
complaining about our leaders. I’m
asking God and you in Jesus name to forgive me! Instead of complaining about
our leaders we should be praying for them.
Look at the way David served his citizens here; let’s pray that God
will impress this kind of wisdom on our leaders. We thank God for our salvation, without Jesus our righteousness
is like filthy rags. Keep the first thing first, that is salvation through
our Lord Jesus Christ. ““Come now, let
us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they
shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall
become like wool.” Isaiah
1:18, ESV. Keep sharing Jesus, there is no other way by which men can be
saved. If the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast
again tomorrow.

Don’t get
caught up in “religion”, it is about a relationship. Our salvation depends
completely on God! We are the Saints that Jesus sacrificed his life to pay in
full for our sin, when we repent and accept Jesus. He will come to get every
Saint; “36 “But concerning that day and hour no
one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.” Matthew
24:36, ESV. We are building our
relationship with Jesus right now, do not wait while you try to change
anything. Click this link for more
