UKRAINE: A Response to Pray

 Greetings, "And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before Me for the land, that I should not destroy it:  but I found none.   Therefore have I poured out Mine indignation upon them; I have consumed them with the fire of My wrath:  their own ay have I recompensed upon their heads, saith the Lord God."   Ezekiel 22:30 - 31 Russian President Putin, has always spoke of a return to the former USSR regime and power.  And in moments over the last decades, he has done things to promote this and enact this.  So, when he amassed over 100,000 troops around Ukraine, why would any one not think that he was prepared and ready to take Ukraine?   Yet, many did not believe he would actually do it.  The false comfort throughout history is what has allowed for evil to happen and cause its worst scenarios.  One must understand evil for its work and purpose.  Just as the above verse states, that God looks for a man; so Satan throughout history look

PRAYER EMAIL - FEBRUARY 18

 Greetings, ". . . for David, and for the people that were with him, to eat:  for they said, The people is hungry, and weary, and thirsty, in the wilderness."     II Samuel 17:29 This scenario of David's life and those fleeing with him, all started back in chapter 11.  David sinned against the Lord.  And God told David that those of his own household would rise up against him.  What a contrast is found between the covenant that God established with him that he would always have a lineage for the Lord and that those of his own household would rise up against him.  That now, out of that same lineage that arose covenant and blessing, also would raise up treason and evil.  Sin has consequences!  And now, after years of Absalom, plotting and scheming evil against his father, its all in motion.  David has fled from Jerusalem, Absalom has entered the palace and city.  Absalom who had been in exile was now made king, and the king David, is now removed. CONTRAST!!  Here in this on

THE ACTIVITY OF GOD IN THE BIBLE - I CORINTHIANS - CHAPTERS 9 -16, PART II

   The Activity of God Going through the Bible, book by book, chapter by chapter, verse by verse, phrase by phrase and word by word to give attention to the following: --the Names of God; --the word & deeds of God; --the sayings of God; --the attributes of God; Too often the churches weakness and the Christians weakness is found in this one sin, 'we do not know God'.  We have not studied the Bible, nor Him to learn more of Him.  Seeking that this might be a help for myself and others in this pursuit that each of us 'may grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord.

PRAYER EMAIL - FEB. 5

 Greetings, "Till there was no remedy."   II Chronicles 36:16 For 22 years in this century, we have watched the remedial judgements of God upon our nation, cities, churches and homes.  Great amount of record setting, historic and in some cases, cataclysmic moments of God's wrath.  These remedial judgements are sent to call the people back to God.  As in II Chronicles 7, the promise of 7:14 is from God's judgements upon the nation and land in 7:13, that should cause the people to seek the Lord, call upon Him and return to Him and His ways.   At this same time, of trying to understand the judgements of God, we have see the increase of evil and wickedness in our nation and the luke-warm attitude of the church.  Many have assumed and warned in this great fear that we are approaching the end.  The end of opportunity to return to God.  For there does come a day, for final judgement, a day of no return.  That day, defined in Scripture, with multiple titles, 'day of the L
