Golden Text:  They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. – Isaiah 11:9

Assyria would be like a tree cut down at the height of its power, never to rise again. Judah the royal line of David would be like a tree chopped down to a stump.

Let no man deceive you with vain (empty) words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience – Ephesians 5:6.

We are a chosen generation according to the Word of God, a peculiar people. God has saved us for a reason. Part of that reason is to shine the light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ so that others may be saved. The second reason we’re saved so that we may have a special relationship with God, our Father.

Heavenly Father, we come to You in the name of Jesus, and we ask You to search our hearts. We pray that You would destroy everything in our hearts that is contrary to Your Word. We pray for love to be in our hearts. We pray for patience and mercy to be in our hearts. We pray for a humble and meek spirit. Mold and shape us into vessels You can use anytime and anywhere at any place. Give us the heart of God and the mind of Jesus Christ.
