July 2
This month begins the second half of the year and with it comes great anxiety to many, of a galloping year. It seems as though time is slipping away from us and O how this brings all kinds of negative vibes. I encourage you with the words of Deborah to a servant of God who was facing some very crippling fears about the road before him that must be travelled. Go! This is the day the LORD has given Sisera into your hands. Has not the LORD gone ahead of you? So Barak went down Mount Tabor, followed by ten thousand men. Judges 4: 14b
Here are three faith-strengthening and fear-removing truths received from this text, about our Lord God.
God carries you. Has not God gone ahead of you? Then He who is the Almighty Power, goes ahead of you to carry you or take you to where you need to be.
God clears the way for you. Has not God gone ahead of you? Then He who is the Supreme Authority, with His controlling Powers, clears impossible paths and makes a clear way for you.
God’s outrider chooses the path for you. Has not God gone ahead of you? You may be taken through what is unfamiliar to you, but God, the Omniscient Authority, knows the way He takes. To follow Him is always gain and victory.
Believe! Face this time in the Name of our Trustworthy and Faithful God, who has already gone ahead of you.
As you receive each, Devotional Delicacy, may every word, phrase, and sentence be used by our ever present Holy Spirit, to strengthen your faith, encourage your heart and quicken your feet.

You
send showers on the just and unjust,
So
Father God how can we not but trust,
That
You can send blessing on the whole race,
Regardless
of someone’s portion or place;
Our
families need Your help and healing,
Evils
of sin we’re seeing and feeling.
The
rain is falling on both wheat and weed,
Both
in Your earth, heaven’s watering need,
If
they are to grow, to be strong and thrive,
For
by Your showers each is kept alive;
For
our families urgently help we plead,
Demon
forces are plaguing us indeed.
With
one rain shower the whole garden’s blest,
And
every plant Your free blessings ingest,
For
those that were brown and ready to die,
O
how they bounce back with jubilant cry;
For
our families, one Spirit-fall I pray,
From
wretchedness snatch us, without delay.
Creator,
God of all heaven and earth,
We
Your children are of more precious worth,
Send
down Your free blessings upon us all,
Save
us Jehovah, from missing Your call;
Heal
families, with all our filthy sin,
Love
blessings alone can our vile hearts win.
As
one rain-shower the whole garden wets,
And
no plant at all Your open Hand vets,
Let
Your providential, pardoning grace,
Fall
upon all ere our station and place;
Our
families need Your help and healing,
By
faith, through grace, we will know Your sealing.
Amen!
