This week, we are to the part of our monthly scripture memory that emphasizes 2 things:
- the WORD OF GOD
- PRAYER
Yesterday, I shared with you a marvelous example of a sister-in-Christ who uses both well. Lisa Bloecher is child-like, poor in spirit, mourns with the hurting, hungers and thirsts for righteousness, and shows mercy in many ways. She is a WARRIOR WOMAN for Christ and uses her weapons of THE WORD and PRAYER well. What Lisa, you , and I must do is put on God's full armor and stand firm. Tough stuff when you're going through something like Lisa's going through now. Late last night her FB status was not her normal scripture status or prayer, but this update on her hubby, Chip:
"doctor concerned too low brain activity. different doctor, different report tonight. we covet ur prayers."
Please join us in reading what we must do:
Ephesians 6:13-18
.
"Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, . ...with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. . 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. . 18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
