Natalie Grant-- "In Better Hands"

The Gordons--"All My Tears"

Morning~

Morning Everyone! Awesome thoughts last night! Thanks for sharing what He showed you! For those of you driving to DC and Virginia Beach, be safe. "The angel of the Lord encampeth 'round about them that fear Him."

P.S. Don't forget--Hawaiian Teriyaki at six next week. Did I hear Keenan say that he was fixing sushi too?

In these passages, who are the "Righteous?" What is "Faith?"

"You bless the righteous, O Lord; you cover them with favor as with a
shield." (Psalm 5.12)

"Take the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the
flaming arrows of the evil one" (Ephesians 6.16).

Allan looks forward to visiting with his Tennessee cousins from both sides of the family.

Just left church in Idyllwild--Blessed visits and simple lunch with a friend.

Spiritual Warfare Study

Our co-ed home-based Bible study on Spiritual Warfare will begin this TU evening and will run from 7-8.30 in Evington. We will weekly undertake study, worship, and intercessory prayer. Bring nothing but yourselves and a Bible. Everyone is welcome but space is limited--so, please be sure to let one of us know that you're coming.

In preparation, please read the six short chapters of Ephesians. Fast on Monday and give special attention to Ephesians 6.10-18. Also, please join our blog. Discussion Groups will occur during the week in preparation for the following week's meeting. Any Google or Twitter account will work for posting. "Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded" (James 4.8).

In life and Light,

Allan

"Believe nothing that you hear and only half of what you see." The deceiver is a liar and you shouldn't be listening to him anyway-

Isaiah 31.1-3

"Destruction is certain for those who look to Egypt for help, trusting their cavalry and chariots instead of looking to the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. In his wisdom, the Lord will send great disaster; he will not change his mind. He will rise against those who are wicked, and he will crush their allies, too. For these Egyptians are mere humans, not God! Their horses are puny flesh, not mighty spirits! When the Lord clenches his fist against them, they will stumble and fall among those they are trying to help. They will all fall down and die together" (Isaiah 31.1-3).

"Fight Another Day"

"For Those Who Wait"

”Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, ‘My way is hidden from the Lord, and my right is disregarded by my God’? Have you not known? Have you not heard?  The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint” (Isaiah 40.27-31).
