'Praise the Lord because He is So Good; Sing to His Wonderful Name.' (Ps.135:3) We Worship You, Father, and Thank You for Your Infinite Grace. Your Lovingkindness is Wondrous to us, and Your Mercies we Cherish, Day by Day. We Love You, Lord Jesus, our King, Beloved; the Joy and the Treasure of our Hearts!
Your Majesty, our Military Men and Women we Lift before Your Grace-Throne. In Your Name, we Ask for Protection for Every Life. May the Presence of the Lord of Hosts Surround our Military Day and Night. We Ask, our God, that Heaven's Strength be Given to our Troops. May their Enemies Know the Fear and Terror of the Sovereign Lord. Be Glorified, Father Jehovah, in the Military of the USA. For our Warriors we Pray Psalm 121:3,4 and Psalm 124:8, 'He will Never let me Stumble, Slip, or Fall. For He is Always Watching, Never Sleeping. Our Help is in the Name of the LORD, Who Made Heaven and Earth.'
Our Abba, we Lift Up the Family of Somer Thompson, Praying for Comfort and Peace. May the Monster who Murdered this Precious Child be Brought to Justice, Holy God. For Little Somer's Family we Pray Isaiah 40:31, 'Those who Hope in the Lord will Renew their Strength. They will Soar on Wings like Eagles; they will Run and not Grow Weary, they will Walk and not be Faint.'
We Trust in Thee, our Merciful Savior, and Give You our Heartfelt Praise. 'How Kind He is! How Good He is! So Merciful, this God of ours!' (Ps.116:5) In Jesus' Name, for the Glory and Honor of the King, amen.
Amen.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!
Dear Father In Heaven
We lift up to You our men and women in uniform. We ask You to uphold them with Your Everlasting Arms, to comfort them, to strenghthen them, to give them courage, and peace in their hearts, to preserve them against all evil and injury, and to guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Amen
For many years, Lake Okeechobee hid its secrets in thick waters and layers of muck. But in 2007, drought shrank the Florida lake to its lowest level since officials began keeping records in 1932, unveiling hundreds of years of history. Raking through the bottom of the lake, archaeologists found artifacts, pottery, human bone fragments, and even boats.
After King David committed adultery with Bathsheba and planned the death of her husband, Uriah, he covered his sins by denying them and not confessing them. He probably went many months conducting business as usual, even performing religious duties. As long as David cloaked his sinful secrets, he experienced God’s crushing finger of conviction and his strength evaporated like water in the heat of summer (Ps. 32:3-4).
When the prophet Nathan confronted David about his sin, God’s conviction was so great that David confessed his sins to God and turned away from them. Immediately the Lord forgave David and he experienced His mercy and grace (2 Sam. 12:13; Ps. 32:5; Ps. 51).
Let’s be careful not to hide our sin. When we uncover our sins by confessing them to God, we are covered with His forgiveness.
AMEN SISTER AND GRACE TO ALL CHRISTIAN PATRIOTS!
“I will meditate in thy precepts.”
- Psalm 119:15
There are times when solitude is better than society, and silence is wiser
than speech. We should be better Christians if we were more alone, waiting
upon God, and gathering through meditation on his Word spiritual strength
for labour in his service. We ought to muse upon the things of God,
because we thus get the real nutriment out of them. Truth is something
like the cluster of the vine: if we would have wine from it, we must
bruise it; we must press and squeeze it many times. The bruiser’s feet
must come down joyfully upon the bunches, or else the juice will not flow;
and they must well tread the grapes, or else much of the precious liquid
will be wasted. So we must, by meditation, tread the clusters of truth, if
we would get the wine of consolation therefrom. Our bodies are not
supported by merely taking food into the mouth, but the process which
really supplies the muscle, and the nerve, and the sinew, and the bone, is
the process of digestion. It is by digestion that the outward food becomes
assimilated with the inner life. Our souls are not nourished merely by
listening awhile to this, and then to that, and then to the other part of
divine truth. Hearing, reading, marking, and learning, all require
inwardly digesting to complete their usefulness, and the inward digesting
of the truth lies for the most part in meditating upon it. Why is it that
some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances
in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not
thoughtfully meditate on God’s Word.
They love the wheat, but they do not grind it; they would have the corn,
but they will not go forth into the fields to gather it; the fruit hangs
upon the tree, but they will not pluck it; the water flows at their feet,
but they will not stoop to drink it.
From such folly deliver us, O Lord, and be this our resolve this morning,
“I will meditate in thy precepts.
“
