As I keep praying about the New Year several issues keep coming to mind.  I prayed this at the start of 2010. Are we doing this now. 

The first is quiet time development, how are we doing? Another is applying our Father’s word to our own heart. See Ps 119:18. Are we looking for a City - are we walking in Baptism with the Holy Spirit, being filled His Spirit on a daily basics.  Are we dealing with our personal debit are we paying it off? In addition, are we developing relationships with none Christians? Do we have compassion and skills to reach the lost?

National issues – are we willing as a nation to fight 1000 year war with Islam? I know this is tough but this is the real issue. Are we using our citizenship too address issues that we have compassion for.  Praying for the blessing of God for the cities that we live in? Are we praying Ps 133 and Ps 91 for the President and His staff? Our is the frustration we are feeling leading us to want to go in a different direction? FYI, always be careful as too what we wish for. 

Ps 122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you be secure. 7 May there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels.” 8 For the sake of my brothers and friends, I will say, “Peace be within you.”9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your prosperity

Has the Church become what we worship? In forsaking sexual sins, putting away things that are pagan, taking care of the poor and widows.

Jesus is Lord and God always.
