But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. -Isaiah 40:31


Good morning and God bless you. Happy Monday. Oh the beginning of our busy week referred to humorously as the rat race. 


As I merged into traffic this morning in i-240 the thought of our insidious plight became frfr. Even in the midst of the public health crisis many have not stopped running the race. 


Yes it is understood that we are trying to provide for our families, but every now and then we should slow down and wait while listening.   


A song that has been playing over and over in my mind says Lord keep me in the moment. Many do not understand the importance of staying in a moment. 


Many say Lord whatever you are doing in this season...don’t do it without me, but He does it in spite of your absence because we don’t know how to wait. 


If the prodigal son had only stayed in the moment, pig slop wouldn’t been on the menu.


If Adam has stayed in the moment we would still be in Eden.


If Moses has stayed in the moment he would have spoke not struck the rock.


If David had stayed in the moment while at war, he wouldn’t had the opportunity to sleep with Bathsheba. 


The moment is when the Lord pours into us, shapes us, cuts and molds us. 


An old old song says

Oh for a moment on the potters wheel I pray, spin me Lord each and everyday 


Wash me down with your spirited stay, a perfect vessel of me you make. 


God bless and Command Your Day

And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;   We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments:                   -Daniel 9:4-5 Good morning and TGIF!    Daniel the prophet offers a vital lesson on humility in these scriptures. He draws a parallel between David’s prayer (Ps 51), where David acknowledges not only his own sins but also the sins of those who came before him. Many people either deny being affected by their ancestors' sins or are quick to highlight the faults of others while conveniently overlooking their own.  In verse 4, Daniel first confesses his own sins, whether they were committed intentionally or unintentionally. Then in verse 5, he acknowledges the s...

  And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver. -2 Samuel 24:24 Good morning and terrific Thursday to you!  The passage referenced tells the story of David trying to halt a plague in Israel—a plague that had come as a result of his own disobedience. To stop it, an act of obedience was required. Following the instructions given through the prophet, David sought a place to offer a sacrifice. He arrived at the threshing floor of Araunah, where the angel had ceased his destruction, intending to build an altar there. Araunah, upon learning of the king’s purpose, generously offered the space and everything needed for the sacrifice at no cost.  However, David declined the offer, as he understood a profound truth that many overlook: the principle of sacrifice is that it must c...

  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. -John 3:17 Good morning and happy Monday to you!  The Lord Jesus came to this world not to condemn us, but to show us what true righteousness is. His mission had multiple purposes, and I will highlight two of them. First, we needed an example of righteousness—someone conceived without sin and who lived a sinless life. Next, because of His immaculate conception and sinless existence, He was qualified to be sacrificed. This requirement was too great for sinful man to fulfill. The grace it took for Him to come into this world and to die for it is truly amazing. #prayforthepeaceofIsrael God bless you and command your day!!! Your comments and questions are welcome.
