JOURNAL/DELIVERANCE
JOURNAL/DELIVERANCE
“WHERE two or three are gathered together in my NAME-there I am in the MIDST of them”
Matthew 18:20
EVERY Wednesday night-Darryl-Paul and I gather together for bible study-TO PRAISE GOD-to PRAY for others-and to just CONTEMPLATE the WORD of God together
I actually feel THE PRESENCE of God in our midst-and in our UNITY with ONE ANOTHER and with God
DEAR LORD-I thank you for these two friends-MY face book and e-mail FRIENDS-for we ALL ACKNOWLEDGE your LOVE for us-and IN FAITH in you and IN FAITH with ONE ANOTHER-we offer our PRAYERS for UNITY-PEACE-AND LOVE in this world
DEAR LORD-it is a GREAT DAY to be ALIVE in your continuous-everlasting LOVE FOR US
PS I PRAY for PEACE among ALL GOD'S PEOPLE and ALL PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
DELIVERANCE
THIS WORLD
Is a tough world
We face many challenges
We face
Many trials and tribulations
Who can DELIVER me
In this tough-mean
Sometimes cruel world
YOU-Oh Lord-
Are my ROCK AND REFUGE
In times of trouble
“DELIVERANCE”
Was a 1972 movie
That included a top-notch cast:
Burt Reynolds-John Voigt-and Ned Beatty
To name a few
It was
About a group of men
Trying to negotiate
A river with rapids
And many unforseen problems
From BOTH people and nature
WHO can we turn to
In times of trouble
“And God sent me
Before you
To preserve you a posterity
In the earth
And to SAVE your lives
By a GREAT DELIVERANCE” Genesis 45:7
And in the movie
The central characters survive
DESPITE losses
Along the way
We too-IN LIFE
Can survive
IF
We put our faith
In the right place-GOD
“HE shall DELIVER thee
In six troubles-in seven
There shall be NO EVIL
Touch thee” Job 5:19
The point is:
God can DELIVER you
No matter
What you are up against
FAITH in God
MAKES all the difference
In this world
And if you think
There is no evil
In this world
You haven't seen
Some of the things
That I have seen
OR some of the evil
That men and women
Can do-and do do
WHO CAN DELIVER
In times of trouble
In times of evil
GOD CAN
(you cannot do it alone)
“I sought the Lord
And he answered me
He DELIVERED me
From all my fears” Psalm 34:4
“THE LORD is my rock
My fortress
And my DELIVERER
My God is my ROCK
In whom I take REFUGE
He is my shield
And the HORN of my salvation
MY STRONGHOLD” Psalm 18:2
OUR DELIVERANCE
Comes from GOD ALONE
