their souls which it can, will and does take. Our foreign policy backs the rise of Islam, we turn our backs
on those who would follow God and arm those who murder them. Pray God will raise up a leader from
among the people who can turn the country’s course 180° and attempt to come back to God. Pray the people will recognize that
they are headed down a smooth wide road into the pit, a road that will get
smoother and smoother, steeper and steeper until the only possible way is
down. Down, into the depths of the
pit. Pray people will recognize
there is:
•
One True and Triune God who is goodness in and
of Himself
•
All religions are not equal
•
All ways of life are not equal;
•
The Bible holds the Key to Life;
•
All rights come from God, not the State;
•
Good;
•
Bad;
•
Evil;
•
Right;
•
Wrong;
•
Allah is the Devil;
•
Abortion is no more than sacrifice of children
to Baal.
Pray this recognition will not come
too late. Pray we will, each of
us, do our duty to God, Country and Family, putting His Honor above all.
Persecuted
The Islamist group (ISIS) took over
Quaragosh, the biggest Christian city in Iraq; 164 men, women and children were
beheaded. People ask where is
God? The real question is where
are the people to enforce God’s will.
Pray the people of the world will see Allah for who he is, the
Devil. Pray for those who remain
behind that they might find a way to safety.
Around the world, Christians are under
attack, not only in the Muslim world, but from Hindus and others in India. Also, they are under continual attack
in the name of Separation of Church and State in the western world, as it
becomes actively atheist or pro-devil buddy. Please pray for God’s guidance and protection for all
persecuted Christians and those around them.
Education
Aaron is in need of God’s guidance to see what he
needs to do to fulfill his potential and live his life in a manner which will
bring true happiness to him.
Thomas Dabney is attending Delta State
University in Cleveland, Mississippi, to finish his Bachelor’s Degree. Please pray for Thomas to focus on
education and do his very best at school.
