Plead the Blood

When Christ Jesus gave His Life as a sacrifice to atone for our sin, His Bood was spilled FOR US.

You are under that blood your entire life. Your enemy knows it. He can see as if blood was splattered upon your door post as in the Exodus.

Rejoice in the Blood. Plead the Blood. Sing about the Blood. You are safe and clean under the Blood of Christ

Power struggles

2 Kings 14-16

We’ve already seen several attempts to overthrow President Trump using weapons and courts. Such were the power struggles in the history of the kings of Israel and sometimes Judah. It’s truly sad to read about how many leaders were assassinated because someone else wanted the power.

This is a great reason to pray for our leaders and their safety.

A very young king

2 Kings 10

Josiah was only 7 years old when he began ruling Israel. His life had been preserved from overthrow by the priests. No doubt they groomed him in God’s ways.

Even tho children may be young, teach them to be Godly leaders. Who knows ….

Open our eyes

2 Kings 6

Elisha’s servant could only see the enemy army surrounding them. The prophet asked God to open his eyes to see the much larger angelic army encircling their enemy.

God’s power ALWAYS trumps the resistance we experience in this life.

Look up, child.

“Bring me a harpist”

2 Kings 3

The prophet Elisha requested some harp music to stimulate his supernatural insights. God’s Spirit in the music can open men to hear the Spirit’s voice.

David’s anointed harp music could chase away Saul’s demons. Christ’s Disciples sang a hymn just before He went to the Mount of Olives to await His betrayal by Judas.

Seek Godly music.

Pick up the mantle

2 Kings 2

Elisha had just witnessed Elijah being carried to Heaven in a fiery chariot. He had asked for miracle power twice as much as his mentor. He received it … picked up the old prophet’s cloak and promptly used it to divide the waters of the Jordan river.

Miracles are available to you too. Have faith for ANY difficulty. Call on the name of Jesus!

Elijah, the Tishbite!

2 Kings 1

While in music school, I composed music to this passage. I was so taken by the drama which unfolded … Elijah’s trademark, fire from heaven.

He was not a prophet to be taken lightly. Ahaziah wondered if he would live following an accident. Elijah said,”No.”

It happened as Elijah predicted. TODAY, we have God’s Word to answer our important questions. God is STILL SPEAKING.

A wicked woman

1 Kings 21

Jezebel was EVIL. She had Naboth murdered so Ahab could confiscate his family’s vineyard. She had no regard for others … only for what advantaged her.

People use subtle devices to gain advantage. God sees them and puts them on a course of destruction … unless they repent as Ahab did.

Don’t let your children succeed at manipulative tricks that give them unearned advantage.

Talkin’ smack

1 Kings 20

King Ahab and Benhadad, king of Syria, had some serious smack talkin’ goin’ on. Ended up, God gave Ahab a great victory, in the face of all the “jawin'” Benhadad did.

I wonder how much smack talk is goin’ on between Trump and Putin tight now.

We need to pray.
