War Room Boot Camps, Today’s E-Letter
|
|
I am so honored to use these questions when I do A Solemn Assembly.
Greg Frizzell has done a brilliant job with them.
These questions are so penetrating that they humble you every time you hear them.
If you have been in a service where I have gone through these questions with you, remember my plea to you, “finish doing business with God.”
You may need to go into a quiet place and go back through these questions.
Please don’t short-change yourself.
These questions remind us of things we may have disregarded previously. Please deal with them.
To print this, you will find it easier to use 8 1/2 x 14 paper.

Blessings,
Dear Class:
Today we concluded our study of the Book of Psalms with a focus on Psalm 42 and 43. As was the case with the psalmist, there will be times in a believer’s walk during which bouts of spiritual depression will set in. Since we are called to live by faith and not by sight, we trust and believe in our Heavenly Father’s promise to never leave us nor forsake us.
Studying the Book of Psalms over the past 13 weeks has been an enriching experience for me. I’ve occasionally looked at some of the best known psalms (1, 23, 51, 91, 100, and 139) and even memorized some of their verses. But not until this study, did I fully appreciate the incredible value of what God has given us in this collection of songs to Him. They cover the full range of the human condition – fear, anxiety, impatience, anger, exhaustion, loneliness, despair, trust, restoration, peace, joy, wonder, and awe.
At their core, the psalms are expressions of love, love for a loving God. In Psalm 8:4, the psalmist asks the ultimate question – “What is man that You are mindful of him”. Although we are so insignificant compared to the Uncreated Creator of all things, we have to marvel at how God desires for us to know Him as our Abba Father. These words from one of George Beverly Shea’s hymns so well express this incredible truth: “There’s the wonder of sunset at evening, The wonder of sunrise I see; But the wonder of wonders that thrills my soul, Is the wonder that God loves me”.

Please note that next Sunday, Sept. 3, we will begin our study of the Book of Exodus with a focus on Exodus 1-4. Exodus 1-4 sets the stage for the Lord’s monumental liberation of His chosen people from Egyptian slavery under the reluctant leadership of Moses and Aaron.

Like many people I was up this morning watching the devastation occurring in Houston but I was interested not only in what has already occurred but the reality of so much more water coming down over the next few days.
The challenge in this kind of a situation for me is how do I pray for them. What does the Lord want me to pray on behalf of these people?
As I searched the scriptures I believe the Lord laid on my heart Psalm 123. And here is how I found myself praying for these folks today.
Father, I pray for those men and women and boys and girls that are going through this natural disaster in Houston, and the reality that it is far from over. Father as I think of them and I look at these versus, my prayer is that they would lift their eyes to You because You are the One who is enthroned in the heavens above this flood and storm system.
Lord, I pray that they would lift their eyes to You and as the end of verse two says, “until You show them favor.” And yet Lord, I know that there will be many who will find all kinds of other things to focus on and think about and worry about rather than lifting their eyes to You. Many folks will have the opportunity to spend time with You and yet will choose not to.
Father I thank You for this opportunity that so many of them have to follow You, to lift their eyes to You and I pray that they will do that during this natural disaster.
Amen, God of Comfort,
