DELIVERANCE
It is not truly known whether wearing a mask will deliver us from the vicious touch of the Corona virus or if not wearing a mask welcome its attack. The old adage,” Better safe than sorry,” seems to be appropriate. I find it very interesting that it is the some forty percent who do not wear a mask against spreading the virus while in heightened contact locations are mostly non-Christians. Christians realize that their effort to protect others is Godly and desirable. These words are referred to by sinners concerning deliverance by God from this pestilence and decline the filtering out of their breaths and saliva spray that adds fuel to the spread of the virus; if they indeed have it already. “God will protect me.” I do not believe they actually feel that a God which they do not respect and worship, will hear their plea of self righteousness.
1 Corinthians 3:19 "For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.”
The three Hebrew boys, when facing the fiery furnace for their refusal to worship Nebuchadnezzar’s golden statue spoke: (Daniel 3:17)  “If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace,...” We Christians feel similarly concerning the virus. However we don’t wish to add to its flames.”
Many Christians have died of the virus; many more suffered through its tormenting claws. In all cases deliverance is in God’s hands. To boast of God’s intervention is tempting God. (Mark 7:6) "... This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.”
Matthew 4:7 “Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.”
Isaiah 7:12 “But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD.
In teaching his disciples proper prayer methods, Jesus spoke in part: ( Luke 11:2)...“deliver us from evil. Amen. God has angels ready to deliver us from all evil.
Be protected, see the doctor, follow doctor’s advice, turn to God and if it be His will, live and enjoy deliverance. (Galatians 1) 3 “Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: 5 To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Know God, know peace. Amen. 06-10-2020 BLL

Thy will be Done...the Wayfarer 3/15/19

Thy will be Done 3/15/19 Matthew 6:9-13 King James Version (KJV) 9  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10  Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11  Give us this day our daily bread. 12  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. The "model " prayer, given us by Jesus, repeated daily throughout the world, by many denomination and sect, though seldom examined by those parroting the words is NOT an empty example that is to be followed by congregant, memorized by children and adult alike.  It is exactly the opposite of that emptiness, holding the essence of what SHOU LD be in the heart of the one praying. It is GOD'S will that need be sought, not just daily, but continually by all wishing an audience wit

A Giving Heart

By -
  A GIVING HEART “ Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.” (1 Chronicles 29:9) Israel’s people brought gifts for the construction of the holy temple in Jerusalem, it is mentioned no less than six times in this chapter that their offerings were willing offerings. In fact, they were not only willing but it also brought rejoicing in their hearts. They were building a worship house. It was a sacred place, a place belonging to all who would come to worship. Joyful giving is not the usual response to a fundraising effort for a religious cause by modern church leaders. The parishioners follow the attitude of their chosen pastors and often the pastor tickles their ears to encourage giving. The great proliferation of solicitation of money today by media broadcast has developed a growing cynicism in Christians toward all tithing. Further, misuse of col

This Day

  Each Day We can only live each day in its time frame. Yesterday, with its ups and downs is passed never to return. Tomorrow is a vision of hope not yet on the horizon. Today is the day the Lord has given us. Let Each Day We can only live each day in its time frame. Yesterday, with its ups and downs is passed never to return. Tomorrow is a vision of hope not yet on the horizon. Today is the day the Lord has given us. Lets make the best soldier for Him that we can while the day passes into yesterday. Each day bares its on unique set of events. Some recognizable some masked in ignorance. As we near the dawning of a new day, calling upon the Lord is a necessary activity. If we neglect the creat o r and giver of the new day, we simply cannot have a right spirit. Joy comes in the morning only through God’s book of promises. You can depend upon them unless the bible is shelved drawing dust. Open the new day with prayer and an open book. 1 Timothy 4: 4 “ For every creature of God
