Good morning ☀️
I’m reading Deuteronomy 28. The first 14 verses promise BLESSINGS for obedience and the remaining 53 verses describe CURSES for disobedience. Prosperity preachers focus on the blessings and rarely mention the curses. We would do well to read and meditate on the entire chapter.
Let’s start our day with some of the blessings realizing they are conditional.
“If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. All these blessings will come on you and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God: You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.”
We seem to be living through the curses right now. #pray #Christian #Israel #America Human ingenuity will not solve the world’s problems.
Here’s a prayer from “Prayers that Availeth Much” (Germaine Copeland). It comes from Ephesians 6: 10-19.
How often do you remember to do this? #prayer
God is totally in control of world events. NOTHING catches him by surprise.
I woke up with the Strait of Hormuz on my mind.
We are in trouble. The escalating crisis with Iran has shut this vital chokepoint. 20% of global oil hangs in the balance. Oil prices are surging. Impacting economies like ours.
Let us pray fervently for an immediate reopening, rapid de-escalation, wise leaders who understand biblical prophecy and the times we are living in. May God grant us protection from disaster and the mercy we need instead of the judgment we deserve for not putting Him first in our lives and nation. Time is running out. Man’s hubris brings destruction.
We pray in Jesus’s name for His will to be done in the Middle East.

Here’s my meditation for today. What do these of Jesus words mean to you?
“All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”
John 10: 8-10 (NKJV).
