The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted, the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth. Be ashamed, O ye husbandmen, wail, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished
.Unto Thee, O LORD, do I cry; for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath set ablaze all the trees of the field. Yea, the beasts of the field pant unto Thee; for the water brooks are dried up, and the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness. Joel 1:9-11; 19
The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved
.Jeremiah 8:20

FATHER, one cannot read these words and not sense the sorrow and destitution of a nation without GOD, of a soul without forgiveness. Forgive us, FATHER, for allowing political correctness and a fear of offending to withhold that which the SPIRIT calls out to a dying world. ~ Dear sinner, repent, believe on the LORD JESUS CHRIST, be baptized and washed, filled with the SPIRIT, and thou shall be saved. ~ OH GOD, renew this commission in our lives as YOUR calling, for LORD the world is on fire, but from the flames of hell. OH GOD, send forth YOUR HOLY FIRE and rid this land, rid our homes and rid our churches of the dross and deliver us from evil we pray. LORD, we pray over our beloved heroes who are the wheat among the chaff, who fight for us and long for the goodness that once was ours, for you had granted us a harvest of goodness and mercy when we became a nation. Protect them from all evil that tries to hinder and silence that which is in their hearts: GOD FAMILY and COUNTRY. May they remain strong and diligent in this fight not only against our enemies, but sad to say, portions of our own government, as they, and we wait upon YOU LORD. THANK YOU.
FATHER, we pray for our families, we pray for our grandchildren and for those yet to be born. LORD, may the season not be too late for them to be gathered with the harvest of souls destined for Heaven. We thank YOU that YOUR eyes still look upon YOUR people Israel, and in YOUR heart YOU see a great harvest, and are sending out workers in and around Jerusalem once again. OH GOD
INDEED
YOU ARE THE LORD OF THE HARVEST. AMEN.

great is the day of the LORD and very terrible; and who can abide it? Yet even now, saith the LORD, turn ye unto Me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with lamentation; And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God; for He is gracious and compassionate, long-suffering, and abundant in mercy, and repenteth Him of the evil. Who knoweth whether He will not turn and repent, and leave a blessing behind Him, even a meal-offering and a drink-offering unto the LORD your God? Joel 2:11-14
Come, Let us Pray. Thank you. Always ~ Jean

Piercing the Darkness
September 29, 2015
The Lord will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.
Isaiah 60:19
I caught my first glimpse of them as a college student. On a frosty, fall night, far from the lights of the city, I was riding on a hay wagon loaded with noisy friends when the sky lit up and colors flashed across the horizon. I was mesmerized. Ever since that night I have been fascinated with the phenomenon called aurora borealis, also known as northern lights. Mostly they are seen far north of where I live, but occasionally they appear in lower latitudes. Having seen them once, I long to see more. Whenever the conditions are favorable, I say to my equally fascinated friends, Maybe tonight . . .
Throughout Scripture, light and glory are used to describe the coming of the Lord. A time is coming when the sun and moon will be unnecessary (Isa. 60:19). And in describing God on His throne, the apostle John wrote, The one who sat there had the appearance of jasper and ruby. A rainbow that shone like an emerald encircled the throne (Rev. 4:3).
An emerald circle is an apt description of the northern lights. So whenever I see glorious light displays in the skies abovewhether in person or via picture or videoI think of it as a foretaste of what is to come, and I praise God that even now His glory pierces the darkness.
Lord, the world around us is sometimes so dark that it is difficult to see Your power and goodness. Thank You for the reminders that the darkness does not and will not last forever. Help us wait with great expectation for the day when we will see You on Your throne.
Jesus came to give light to a dark world.
In todays passage, Isaiah paints a beautiful picture of what life will be like in Gods eternal kingdom. Using the imagery of light and darkness, Isaiah tells the people of Israel that the presence of God will ensure that their problems will never appear again. It is not that light simply makes problems disappear; it is that in the presence of God, only goodness and righteousness can exist. One day the darkness of our lives will be illuminated by the presence of God. J.R. Hudberg
