"Each believer should be thirsting for God, for the living God, and longing to climb the hill of the Lord and see Him face to face. We should not rest content in the mists of the valley when the summit of the mountain beckons us. My soul thirsts to drink deeply of the cup that is reserved for those who reach the mountain's peak and bathe their brows in heaven. How pure are the dews of the hills; how fresh is the mountain air; how abundant is the provision of the dwellers aloft, whose windows look into the New Jerusalem!" Get yourself up on a high mountain, O Zion, bearer of good news, Lift up your voice mightily, O Jerusalem, bearer of good news; Lift it up, do not fear. Say to the cities of Judah, "Here is your God!" Isaiah 40:9 Nearer to God
by Allistair Begg, Truth for Life Daily at One Place Father, the air I breathe comes from You. The lungs that take it in come from You. The sun that gives me warmth comes from You. The food I eat comes from You. Nothing that I have done or could ever do comes from me. You are the Creator and Sustainer of all things. I give You praise because I know that I am fully dependent upon You. Prayer Courtesy Of

"The ocean is amazing. Water covers most of the earth’s surface. It’s beautiful and fresh and clean and blue. Teaming with life. Yet terrifying, deep – deadly in a storm.
"Isn’t it funny how something can be beautiful one minute and deadly the next. Teaming with life – yet a watery grave. "God’s creation is the most amazing place isn’t it. There’s danger one minute, and perfect peace the next. And life can switch so quickly from one to the other. "That’s life I guess..."
"My soul, what do you say—are you so vain as to hope to be an exception to the heavenly rule? Do you hope for reward without work, or honor without endeavor? Dismiss the idle expectation, and be content with the despised things for the sake of the sweet love of Jesus, which will more than repay you. In such a spirit, working and suffering, you will find afflictions grow sweet and hard things easy. Like Jacob, your years of service will seem like only a few days on account of the love you have for Jesus; and when the dear hour of the wedding feast shall come, all your toils will be as though they never happened—an hour with Jesus will make up for years of pain and toil."
"Prayer is the never-failing response of the Christian in any case, in every plight. When you cannot use your sword, you may take up the weapon of prayer. Your powder may be damp, your bowstring may be relaxed, but the weapon of prayer need never be out of order. Satan laughs at the javelin, but he trembles at prayer. Swords and spears need to be sharpened, but prayer never rusts; and when we think it most blunt, it cuts the best. Prayer is an open door that no one can shut. Devils may surround you on all sides, but the way upward is always open, and as long as that road is unobstructed, you will not fall into the enemy's hand..."
Then the Levitical priests arose and blessed the people; and their voice was heard and their prayer came to His holy dwelling place, to heaven. 2 Chronicles 30:27 Weapon of Prayer Alistair Begg, Truth for Life One Place ![]() Pope Francis: The Devil Is Real and Don't Underestimate Him by Josephine McKenna Christian Headlines "As millions of revelers around the world dress in ghoulish costumes to mark Halloween and the darker side of life, Pope Francis warned that the devil is no myth and must be fought strenuously with “God’s armor.”
"Francis described Christian life as a continuous battle against Satan during his homily at morning Mass at the Vatican on Thursday (Oct. 30). '“This generation, and many others, have been led to believe that the devil is a myth, a figure, an idea, the idea of evil,” the pope told the faithful during Mass at the St. Martha guesthouse where he lives inside the walls of the Vatican. “'But the devil exists and we must fight against him...” |
