"I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber" Psalm 121:1-3

Be strengthened with the powerful truth that if you are a child of the Most High God He never slumbers. He is indeed your help and hope in every situation and scenario.

This photo was taken on a country road near my home town in February 2017 in the midst of some of the most fertile farm land in our county. I have traveled this well worn path many times to come and praise and to cry out to my Lord. At the time this photo was taken my Dad had been diagnosed with cancer and would be heaven bound in less than five months. I am often amazed at the beauty of God's creation and I have been strengthened again and again by the truth that the same God who has created such breathtaking beauty is the same God who is my help and hope from day to day.

Thanks for visiting and thanks for praying.

O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me: Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
Psalm 7:1-2

1. David takes Possession- "O Lord my God" He is your God because of your salvation that has been brought to you through the Lord Jesus Christ. The born again have been reconciled to God through Christ Jesus!! The distance. The gap. The gulf has been bridged. You are no longer the enemy of God because of your lost condition, but you are now the child of God. He is yours and you are His. Is there anything too hard for God? No!

2. David's Powerful Profession-
"In thee do I put my trust."
What a profession to make in the heat of the battle!! What a profession to make in the midst of the storm!!We must trust the One who is worthy of our trust. The Lord has proven Himself again and again in His word and in your life. David is not looking to a neighbor he is not looking for sound advice from a friend in this very real place he is at he is trusting in Almighty God. This profession is coming from a man who was a mighty warrior. With that said the only reason he and God's people knew so many victories was because they trusted God. There is power in what we profess. Power to strengthen or power to weaken we must choose. I am not speaking of the power of positive thinking. Being positive is a good thing, but when that action gets its muscle from God’s word look out because there is substance, stability and strength in it! It won’t be based on a whim, but upon the word of God and it will be contagious. It can spread like a wild fire from one believer to another. There will be a sturdiness in your steps and a steel like resolve when God’s Word is your food and fuel for your daily living. The enemy does not want you to proclaim the truths from God’s word, but he wants you down in the ditch of discouragement and despair. Get yourself up out of there shake yourself off and start proclaiming and professing the word of God. Too many Christians are living like paupers spiritual speaking instead of like a powerhouses in Christ Jesus. Listen we need to prepare our hearts so that they will be receptive for a fire to burn. We don’t want our hearts watered down with worldly philosophies and pleasures. Illustration of pouring water on wood camp fire or fire place. Spiritually speaking this is what we do when we live in a way that is completely opposite to God’s word.

3. David's Powerful Prayer-
A. Part one-"Save me from all them that persecute me." In the hands of the devil the whispering words of our enemies are used as a weapon against us. The desired affect is to strike fear in us and to cause us to faint in the midst of the fight. Words are a mighty weapon in the devils dirty bag of tricks against God's people. Don’t fall for the wiles and the lies of the evil one. Put on the whole armour of God and be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might!

B. Part two- "And deliver me" Save me from and deliver me out of the hands and thus the grip of the enemy. Don’t look down but my dear friend look up and cry out to Almighty God.

The Lord has lit a fire in me and my wife- The Prayer and Pen Ministry. A concentrated time of prayer for the men of God and a card of encouragement to their wives. The plan is to use social media as a way to encourage folks to pray for God's men. We currently have a mailing list of over 50. 
My wife will be making the cards. 2020 will be the official start. We are excited about this outreach from A Call to the World Ministries. We are wanting God to be glorified and for many to be encouraged.

On Monday morning, September 29th, the Lord placed this on my heart-

The Prayer- A Call and Cry to God interceding on the behalf of the men.
Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. Colossians 4:12
The Pen- A card sent to the ladies to Encourage and Edify.
 Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. Proverbs 16:24

We look forward to the Lord doing a Mighty work in 2020!

In Christ,

O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. Psalm 34:8

“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.” I Timothy 2:1-2

We must pray for those in our country who are in leadership and authority. This includes local, state and federal officials. When Paul, led by the Holy Spirit, wrote these words, Nero was in power. Nero was a ruthless, vile, violent and ungodly man who had Christians brutally murdered and massacred. Our verses were the Word of God in that time and they are still the Word of God today. We need to come down on our knees in a humble and meek spirit. We need to confess our sins to God and call out and cry out in intercession on the behalf of those in authority and on behalf of the United States of America.
President- Vice President- President's Cabinet- Cabinet Rank Officials- Supreme Court Justices- Senators- Congressmen- State & Local Government Officials- Department of Defense- Department of HomeLand Security- US Army- US Navy- US Marines-US Air Force- US Coast Guard- National Security Agency- CIA- FBI- Let's pray with heaven upon our mind and hope in our hearts knowing that God hears our prayers.
