When I go through examination times, I am astounded at His patience toward me, Barbara. I learn from that. It is a teaching time and an example for me. May we continue to grow in Him. Amen

Lord, thank you for being patient with me. My patience can be very short in certain instances. Help me to follow you more closely. There are times I don't listen to Your voice. Thank you for loving me and making me Your own.

Posting For Tiana who had problems with this forum today.

Father God, I know I fall very far short of what You created me for. I thank You for Your patience with me, and I thank You for the lessons You are bringing me through, in order to teach me more. I do rejoice that Your mercies are unfailing. Thank You, Father, for Your Word, and Holy Spirit, for guiding my thinking and opening the Word to my mind. I pray that I will be more heedful of Your leading, and more open to letting You live out through me in my dealings with other people. Help me to see them as You see them: scared sheep, muddling through the best they can, and may I be more patient and understanding of them, for I am as flawed as they are. Enable me, Holy Spirit, to minister to Your flock in a better way, according to Your will. Thank You, Jesus.

What an appropriate verse and hymn Ann. "Signs of the times are everywhere." I certainly see them, yet I am I am not praying as I should. May the Lord press me with the urgency of the times.

Amen! I too see how wicked our nation has become- especially our leaders. The only thing that will make  a difference is prayer. We must pray continuously and intercede on behalf of our country. If we Christians don't pray, who will? "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."  2 Chronicles 7:14 However, whatever happens in our country we are not without hope!-- our hope is in Jesus Christ our Lord & Savior!   Hallelujah!!!

Redemption Draweth Nigh

Years of time have come and gone
Since I first heard it told
How jesus would come again someday
If back then it seemed so real
Then I just can’t help but feel
How much closer His coming is today

Signs of the times are everywhere
There’s a brand new feeling in the air
Keep your eyes upon the eastern sky
Lift up your head
Redemption draweth nigh

War and strife on every hand
And violence fills our land
Still, some people doubt He’ll come again
But the Word of God is true
He’ll redeem His chosen few
So don’t lose hope
For soon Christ Jesus will descend

Holy Spirit, I read so often in the OT how Your people sinned and forsook the Living God. After enslavement, Your people would call out to You, and You would send a deliverer so that they might have rest. You have always been with those that are called by Thy Name. You have never failed or forsaken them.
I see, through the Holy Spirit, grave danger for our Nation. Rights are being taken away from Christians. The beginning pains of persecution are upon us. We do not boldly proclaim the Name of Christ Jesus anymore, desirous instead of being politically correct, giving no offence, ecumenical, or at our worst, setting the framework for a one-religion false rule for the anti-Christ.
I thank You, Holy Spirit for removing scales from my eye that I might be aware of the path of destruction we are headed on. I thank You, Holy Spirit that You have given me a spirit of a sound mind and reason, and that You have taught me that yes, even my prayers can effect the course of change for our Nation. I seek You to help me pray always, without ceasing, so that our Land will turn back to You. Raise up Godly Legislators and Lawmakers that will direct out Land to glorify You once more.
In all my dealings, political or otherwise, grant me the Spirit of discernment that I might not be caught unawares. Cause me to see and hear,  judge and discern, through the supernatural empowerment You grant. Amen
