Today's Bible Verse
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Joshua 24:15

Today's Meditation - Psalms
Read Psalm 58:1-11
David’s concern in this psalm is for the righteous judgment of God to come upon all those who do wickedly. He describes them in great detail and rejoices in the coming vengeance of God upon the wicked. The book of Revelation also speaks of the triumph of God over all the nations of this world and describes it “the great day of His wrath.”
Verse for Meditation: Verse 11 – “So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily He is a God that judgeth in the earth.”

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.
