Today's Meditation - Psalms
Read Psalm 94:1-7
Romans 12:17-21 urges us not to take revenge on those who have mistreated us or harmed us or done evil against us. The reason? Vengeance belongs to the Lord – we must leave matters with Him. We are to overcome evil with good. But, we still ask the questions recorded in this passage – “LORD, how long shall the wicked triumph?” God’s judgment is coming, and the entire tribulation period is regarded as the day of God’s wrath and vengeance upon this world.
Verse for Meditation: Verse 1 – “O LORD God, to Whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to Whom vengeance belongeth, shew Thyself.”

Prayer Center
As Christians, we are called to pray for God’s guidance and wisdom. We feel it is more imperative than ever for believers to stand together in prayerful unity as the world continues on a downward spiral toward the Tribulation hour. Calamity causes people to waste huge amounts of time fixated on watching the destruction instead of praying for protection and God’s miraculous interventions.
The Bible is filled with verses encouraging us to stay focused on praying for God’s will for our lives; for the safety and wellbeing of our families, ministries and leaders; for the spiritual awakening of the unsaved so they to come to true salvation in Christ; and of course for one another and anything that the Lord places upon our hearts.
Up to the final moments of our days on earth, until the day of the Rapture of the Church, we are dedicated to be prayer warriors for the cause of Christ. Each Monday we publish prayer needs and invite fellow believers to pray.
