Today's Meditation - Psalms
Read Psalm 62:1-6
It is never easy to wait. But, the words translated “waiteth upon God,” refer to our dependency upon the Lord. The psalmist David was fully aware of the attacks of his enemies, and that his only recourse was to wait upon the Lord. It is the same thing as saying that you trust in the Lord and are fully confident that He will do what is best for you. Romans 8:28 reminds us that “all things work together for good to them that love God.” We may not see it that way at first, but as life goes on, it becomes clear that God’s will in our lives is working for our good and His glory; our joy is to depend upon Him, not ourselves.
Verse for Meditation: Verse 2 – “He only is my Rock and my Salvation; He is my Defence; I shall not be greatly moved.”

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.
