C19 IS A MIRROR
Lord, that my reaction to C19 would reveal me as righteous, not wicked
When the whirlwind passes, the wicked are no more, but the righteous are secure forever.

THE LONGING HEART
Father, that I would long for You today
As a deer longs for streams of water, so I long for You, God.

Day of Prayer for Iran
Many of you know that my roots go back to both Mexico and Iran, and that my great-grandmother was martyred for her faith in Iran, which I modernized and included in my novel, Divided Nation.
So, when Elam Ministries asked us to pray for Iran, on a day I was speaking in Columbus, Georgia, I signed on.
Below is a short video where I took the entire congregation into prayer.
Go to Elam’s website for additional prayer prompts and ideas. They do a brilliant job.
I still have a pastor’s photograph whom I pray for. I have no idea his name, or if he’s even alive, but it has been my honor, over the years, to lift up him and those he’s influenced.

1656 England was very divided, not unlike the USA, today.
William Gurnall’s sermon is in 2 parts. Part 1 was the sermon application of Isaiah 1, but part 2 was his Biblically insightful instructions to voters.
This was brilliant in 1656, it is a must read today. . .
Part 1
The Sermon
William Gurnall, of whom very little is known (except his 1300 page book on Spiritual Warfare) is heavy of heart, for he sees his nation in Isaiah 1.
Read this portion soberly, for you will see your nation in the pages of scripture too, and not in a flatering way.
Part 2
The Vote
I rewrote William Gurnall’s message into modern day English, making it easier to understand.
Sit down, strap in, and don’t hold your breath. You’ll be amazed at his insights.
Part 2, Outlined. . .
