Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right side to accuse him. The LORD said to Satan, The LORD rebuke you, Satan! The LORD, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this man a burning stick snatched from the fire? Now Joshua was dressed in filthy clothes as he stood before the angel. The angel said to those who were standing before him, Take off his filthy clothes. Then he said to Joshua, See, I have taken away your sin, and I will put rich garments on you. (Zechariah 3:1-4)

Dear Lord, we gather in Your Name to seek Your grace.
Father, we know that the military life can place many strains on a marriage, and so we pray to You for the marriages of our troops. Please help these husbands and wives to love and serve each other, as You have willed.
Lord, You made man and woman, and You made them one. But the lie continues to gain strength in our country that we can make man and man, or woman and woman, one. We pray that You would turn us back to acknowledge Your authority and Your Word concerning this.
God, as a burning stick snatched from the fire, so You saved us. Our sins covered us like filthy clothing, and in our minds we were Your enemies. But You took away our sin and put rich garments on us. Satan may accuse, but You will rebuke him for the LORD, who chose Jerusalem, has chosen us, and made His blood the surety for our souls. There is no accusation, no shame, no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is our vindication from You. We praise You for Your overwhelming love, in the Name of Jesus, Amen.

Outside The Boat
May 12, 2012
Katsushika Hokusai was one of the most prolific and celebrated artists in Japanese history. Between 1826 and 1833, when he was in his mid-60s and early 70s, he created his greatest worka series of color woodblock prints titled Thirty-Six Views of Mt. Fuji. Among those paintings was his masterpiece: The Great Wave Off Kanagawa. This painting, created during a time of financial and emotional struggles for Hokusai, shows a towering wall of water edged with clawlike foam about to crash down on three slim boats full of rowers.
Psalm 107 also tells a story of people in peril at sea. Afloat on the waves, they mount up to the heavens, [and] they go down again to the depths. And as a result, their soul melts because of trouble (v.26). Eventually, the sailors send an S.O.S. to God, and He responds by smoothing out the sea and guiding them to their destination (vv.28-30).
When we face desperate circumstances, we tend to look to other people for guidance and comfort. They are in the same boat, howeverlost in an ocean of lifes ups and downs. Only God is outside the boat, sovereign, stable, and strong enough to calm the storms (vv.24-25,29). Facing trouble? Call on Him!
Will your anchor hold in the storms of life,
When the clouds unfold their wings of strife?
When the strong tides lift and the cables strain,
Will your anchor drift, or firm remain? Owens
We worship a God who is greater than our greatest problem.
Read: Psalm 107:23-32

Thank you for your prayers. May God watch over and bless all your ways.
O Ephraim, what more have I to do with idols? I will answer him and care for him. I am like a green pine tree; your fruitfulness comes from me. (Hosea 14:8)
