Today's Meditation - Psalms
Read Psalm 81:1-7
Most believe this psalm to be a call to worship. Verse 3 speaks of blowing the Shofar at the time of the “new moon” and “feast day.” It could possibly be a reference to Rosh HaShana – the Feast of Trumpets. God delights in our songs of praise to Him, and the psalm reminds us of how God delivered His people and provided for them through the wilderness.
Verse for Meditation: Verse 1 – “Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.”

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.
