• Psalms 79-81

Today my heart is just breaking for all of those effected by recent weather destruction. From fires in Texas, to tornadoes in Alabama , to Flooding all down the Mississippi River, to the most recent destruction in Joplin, Missouri.

Please continue to pray for them. Send angels to minister to the victims. Pray the Spirit of comfort to those that are in need and have lost so much. If there are other ways you are led to help, do so quickly.

Stand with any of faith that are standing against these destructions in their areas.

These horrible destructions are not God’s fault. The earth, in its fallen, sin-filled state is crying out for the manifestation of the sons of God. The Word tells us that as the time of Christ’s return nears there will be many such weather events. So many of these things are ultimately man-made. Light will come amidst the darkness to those that seek Him.

The one that comes to kill, steal and destroy is NOT God.

John 10:10 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. 

Judgement of the nations may also be playing a part as we get nearer and nearer the last days. But, as believers, just like the city of Goshen during the judgement and plagues of Egypt, we can stand as light in the darkness. We are separate, protected by the blood and there to help and minister the Love of God during these sad times for so many.

So today, pray for those the Lord brings to your mind in these areas.
