Today's Meditation - Psalms
Read Psalm 46:1-5
The central focus of this psalm is God Himself. We often have our eyes on our circumstances, as well as other people, and we fail to have the confidence in the Lord that we desperately need. The One Who will help you is the Lord – trust Him with all your heart. There is a coming “city of God” and a “river” that will cause it to be a place of joy! The great news is that God will make it His dwelling place forever!
Verse for Meditation: Verse 1 – “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.”

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.
