Ephesians 5:11-14 (KJV)
11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

Today’s Inspiration (11/08/2018)
As we are lost, God is there for us. He longs to help us and respond to our needs. It is up to us to allow Him to do such a work.
Today’s Prayer (11/08/2018)
Lord God, please help us love those in our family as You love us. Often times we learn about loving our neighbor and give to the needy, while our family suffers. I know God that those in need, need our help but our family does too. Help me learn to love my parents, brothers and sisters, wife and kids with Your love. May they no longer be left out but instead be sought after and cared for. May we be more in tune to their needs and respond in a big way. Give us over to truly know and understand more about their lives. This way, we will react and help them when things are going south. I am grateful for the Bible and the lessons learned from Solomon’s first wife in “Song Of Solomon 3”. I pray that as people read this chapter that they will be influenced by the love that was shown. Then, as they understand that their family’s needs are as important, may they respond to their needs in a similar way. I know that I need to do this more as well. As I look around my family, I can see that each one of their lives are in need of something. That is why I need Your counsel and guidance. Whatever their needs are now, let me find them out and help care for them. May Your peace rest upon their souls. I love You Lord. Amen.
Care For Those We Love
Even in the midst of the love that Solomon’s wife showed towards Solomon, there is someone greater that cares for each one of us. That person is God.
Song Of Solomon 3:1-4
Song Of Solomon 3:1-4 (KJV)
1 By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
2 I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?
4 It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother’s house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.

Abortion is evil, vile and wicked. It is murder and a crime against God. If you have or are thinking of doing this then repent and come to Jesus.
Matthew 2:16-18

17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying,
18 In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
Today’s Prayer (11/07/2018)
Oh Lord, I know that the world we live in is so dark and so many people need Your light to brighten their lives. Such darkness comes from many different things, especially abortion. The fact that it is legal to kill an unborn child is so devastating. People think that making such choices is OK, but I know God, how much you despise it. The Holy Spirit confirms to me that Your wrath is upon such people that commit these killings. Please open their eyes to the wickedness therein. Bear witness to these people how much it breaks Your heart to see unborn or born children die. I do not wish these people to be cast out into hell when they have a chance to repent. There still is time Lord. May the lost repent and come to You fully. Then can Your blood cover them. I know that there is mercy and forgiveness for those that turn from their sins and follow You. Your grace is for everyone, no matter our crimes. Thank You for helping me come out of a life of sin. You were the one that helped me and now my life is healed. Thank You. I trust in You Lord. My life is to follow You. I love You. Amen.
Abortion Is Murder
Please understand that children, unborn or born, are precious in the sight of God. Never ever harm your children unless you desire the wrath of God, this includes abortion.
