How it does grow! – 2nd Sam. 13

14NOV

8th Year 12-13 Edition 3 – 2nd Sam. 13 l The Feast l Nov 14_2012 II Sam 13 Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully Feast in the book of 2 Samuel 13. David still pays for his sin being to easy on his children David’s son Ammon was infatuated with his sister he raped her and after that he hated his sister. Absalom spoiled by David, living in sin, murders his brother Ammon. David’s grief multiplies because he let’s his children live in sin. His son Absalom flees to Geshur. . “37 But Absalom fled and went to Talmai the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son day after day. 38 So Absalom fled and went to Geshur, and was there three years. 39 And the spirit of the king longed to go out to Absalom, because he was comforted about Amnon, since he was dead.” 2 Samuel 13:37-39, English Standard Version (ESV). Saints there is no white lie, there is no small sin. We can see David’s sin spread like cancer. Once again I say; “when we sin don’t blame anyone else or God. If you turn from sin and ask God forgiveness, he will heal you from the sin.” Prayer for our nation, copied from; Connection! (Devotions for Every Day Life); “…It is for this reason that Jesus taught us to pray, “Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” God has given us the awesome privilege of partnering with Him in bringing about the advance of His Kingdom on earth. As we ask ourselves, “why pray?” we can move from a lethargic attitude about prayer to a place of tremendous excitement as we join with God in what He is doing on this planet. Understanding the place of prayer in God’s plan can give us greater motivation and commitment to be the people of prayer that God is calling us to become. Prayer Pointer “Prayer enlarges the heart until it is capable of containing God’s gift of himself. Ask and seek, and your heart will grow big enough to receive him and keep him as your own.” —Mother Teresa –Prayer Points taken from Patterns for Prayer by Alvin VanderGriend” The nature of sin causes us to hate the people we sin against, think about Ammon how he loved his sister until he sinned against her. Please help keep the first thing first ,that is salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. “For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit,” 1 Peter 3:18 ESV. Pray for each other, be quick to turn from sin and always in any situation turn to God. The Feast Wed., November 14, 2012, 2nd Samuel 13, – “Ammon’s violence to his sister. (1-20) Absalom murders his brother Ammon. (21-29) David’s grief, Absalom flees to Geshur. (30-39)” – Matthew Henry Concise [Please direct your request for prayer to; mlitew8@yahoo.com.

He is true to forgive! - 2 Sam 12

8th Year 12-13 Edition 3 – 2nd Sam. 12 l The Feast l Nov 13_2012 II Sam 12 Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully Feast in the book of 2 Samuel 12. Nathan's describes David's sin in a parable. David confessed his sin and asked for forgiveness. God punished him by taking the child Bathsheba bore him. Then God forgives David and Solomon is born by Bathsheba. David back in God's grace, defeats the Ammonites. “29 So David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah and fought against it and took it. 30 And he took the crown of their king from his head. The weight of it was a talent of gold, and in it was a precious stone, and it was placed on David's head. And he brought out the spoil of the city, a very great amount. 31 And he brought out the people who were in it and set them to labor with saws and iron picks and iron axes and made them toil at the brick kilns. And thus he did to all the cities of the Ammonites. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.” 2 Samuel 12:29-31, English Standard Version (ESV). Just as David's sin put a wall between him and God, so does our sin. David paid dearly for the sin and will will also pay when we sin. The point is when we sin don't blame anyone else of God. If you turn from sin and ask God forgiveness, he will heal you from the sin just as he did David. Prayer for our nation, copied from Freedom for a Nation - Connection! (Devotions for Every Day Life); “Prayer Point Today, please pray for the Arts and Entertainment industry in our nation: Pray for creativity, godliness and sensitivity to the Spirit. “See, the Lord has chosen Bezalel son of Uri the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts” (Exodus 35:30). See also: Isaiah 51:11; Ecclesiastes 3:4). Prayer Holy Spirit, we are grateful for those who continue to pursue entertainment that brings honor and glory to Your Name and who will not compromise their beliefs to create what is displeasing to Your heart. Pour out Your grace in the midst of a culture that has largely turned its back on whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely and admirable, excellent or praiseworthy. Restore artistic creativity that will uplift and encourage rather than flaunt what is immoral and perverse. We pray for professionals in the arts and entertainment industry who have given their hearts to You to find favor and to be salt and light in dark places! In Jesus’ name!” When we find ourselves in sin, we can draw on the faith received from His Word, turn from our sin and ask God for forgiveness. This is why we keep the first thing first ,that is salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. “For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.” 1 Peter 2:15-16 ESV. Hold one another up in prayer and in actions, this is God's will for us. The Feast Tue., November 13, 2012, 2nd Samuel 12, - “Nathan's parable-David confesses his sin. (1-14) The birth of Solomon.
