In Position

Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it.

Proverbs 22:6 NLT

My son and daughter-in-love are raising their daughter in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Her faith is also amazing. This past weekend they attended a conference at their home church that was all about refreshing. Getting in the right posture before God to align with His will (videos can be found at https://www.laportefirst.org/watch-online). All of them came out of the conference super pumped and truly refreshed!

My daughter-in-love shared this powerful testimony 2 days ago. 

"We have to be in position to encounter and receive from God. When the enemy comes at us, we must be in position for God to fight that battle and speak to us. God reminded me this morning that when I see what the enemy has thrown at us, I need to make sure my focus is in position too. When I see the enemy’s fiery arrows, I need to stop to see God’s shield and covering... The enemy threw the facts of circumstances at my logical mind. As I listened to Abby pray, I prayed God would shift my focus into position to see what He sees not what doctors say. He tuned my ear to a little girl as she prayed, “and God, if You choose to take them home, I will still praise You. I will still worship You.” Wrecked. Completely wrecked. But there, right there, was God’s rescue. There was His whisper that no matter what this earth holds, He is still God. He is still on the throne. He is still the One I will praise and trust and worship. I will remain positioned to encounter Him. Even when I see the arrows coming, I will remain positioned to see His hand covering us and moving for His glory. May we each be positioned to encounter Him and receive all we need from Him."

Psalm 78:4b showing to the generation to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength, and his wonderful works that he hath done.

Amen and amen. 

Prayer:

Father,
          I pray the Word from Psalm 71:18 KJV, Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come. And praised You with all of them. In Jesus' Name I pray. Amen
