Judges 6: 39 – 40
Then
Gideon said to God, "Do not be angry with me. Let me make just one more
request. Allow me one more test with the fleece.
This
time make the fleece dry and the ground covered with dew." That night God did so. Only the fleece was dry…
I watched with great interest
last night, the Presidents public address, as it has to do with the world
enemy, ISIS.
Afterwards, military
strategists picked apart and measured the President’s plan.
The only thing I would have
to say in opposition of the Presidents strategy, was that he never mentioned
the need for prayer.
Gideon on the other hand,
when he faced a formidable enemy, prayer was the first part of his military
strategy.
England’s Prime Minister,
Winston Churchill called his nation to prayer, in a most desperate time.
On May 26th,
1940—the lives of 500,000 British soldiers were saved—and many believe prayer
was the key.
What if we as a nation, took
upon the task of daily prayer?
Our church has had a time of
prayer & fasting every Tuesday—which invite people to come to church to
pray.
Honestly, only a very
small handful ever do, but I’m grateful for those who come to pray.
The United States of America
needs prayer, like it has never needed it before.
Days are getting desperate,
and God waits from above, and yearns to hear His people intercede.
The only thing that can
thwart the plan of the enemy, is our great God.
What enemy will you be facing
today?
Just be sure of this—whatever
or whomever that enemy is—they serve absolutely no threat, to our great God.
Victory only happens, when
get on our knees…
