Jeremiah 22:1-23:20, 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12, Psalms 83:1-18, Proverbs 25:11-14

Today is the 13th day of October. Welcome to the Daily Audio Bible. I am Brian. It’s great to be here with you as we close down another week. The rhythm just keeps continuing like a heartbeat and here we are at the end of another of our weeks together. And we start this journey every January 1st with 52 of these weeks out in front of us and we’re down to eleven more. Eleven more times we get to close down the week together before we end this year together. So we are moving right along. And in order to move right along, let’s dive in. We’re reading from the Amplified Bible this week. Jeremiah 22:1-23: 20 today.

Prayer:

Father, we thank You for another week in Your word. And as we were considering at the beginning, we have fewer weeks than we had and we’re able to number them and count them down as we move to the end of the year. And we’re thankful. We can look back and see Your faithfulness and Your mercy in our lives. Father, it is our desire to finish strong. To step into these remaining weeks and surrender to You and enjoy this coming season in Your presence as we move further and deeper into the center of Your will as the fruit of the Spirit continues to be cultivated in our lives. And as Your Holy Spirit continues to lead us into all truth. This is our desire and we look to You for guidance. Come Holy Spirit we pray. In Jesus name we ask. Amen.

Community Prayer and Praise:

Good morning family, this is Erin in Michigan. It is Wednesday October…gosh what it is…I don’t even know…October 10th and my heart is broken…for a million reasons really. They just found 120 something missing children that were in a human trafficking situation here in Michigan. So, that’s breaking my heart. The local school that I work at has just had another issue with someone who’s preying on children. And…just…my heart…my heart is heavy…and there are things in my life that have harmed me and caused me to…to grow fearful and nervous Lord. And, you know, not every day but just when I think of it. And then Gee called in today Lord, spoke of her issues, and spoke of someone in the name of Christ who treated her like she wasn’t made in the image of God and it just killed me Lord that she had to say, I don’t care about the politics. We have to discount the fact that women across our nation, across our world have been misused and have been harmed in the search of whatever it is that person wanted. And Lord, I just lift up our brokenness and I lift up our pain and our need for healing to You, the great physician Lord. And You know how to help us and You know how to heal us Lord and we just pray for healing across the world Lord for women, for girls Lord. And we pray for our men. We know that they are made in Your image and we know that they are stronger and better than they are acting Lord. And we know that it’s not all of them. We lift everyone up to You Lord in Your holy and precious name. Amen. Thank you, family. Love you. Bye.

Hello this is Scottish Tom calling from the Cleveland Ohio area. So, I was saying my morning prayers this morning and I was praying for the community as I do all…every morning. And I also pray for the people who don’t call in and also the people that don’t call in because they maybe think that their problems are unimportant to the community. I just wanted to say that no problem is unimportant to the community. One person may be calling in because they’ve got cancer and you feel stupid calling because you’ve got a headache that day. But for every one person that maybe says, well that was a dumb prayer request, or why are they calling about that, there’s plenty of others that are saying, well, I can relate to that. I’m gonna pray for that person today. It also got me thinking about Jesus first miracle. It wasn’t raising someone from the dead, and it wasn’t healing someone from the sick, or making the blind see. It was a bride and groom at their wedding who were embarrassed because they were about to run out of alcohol and Jesus turned water into wine. Now that’s not a life or death situation. Maybe for the servants who thought they might run out. But, I don’t know. But yeah, it wasn’t a life and death situation but He saved their embarrassment by making wine and it was the best wine that people had tasted. So, never think that your problems are so small or that you can’t call in about them. And as I say, even those that don’t call in, I do pray for you every morning. Take care everyone and I will call in again soon. Bye.

Hi it’s October 10th and I just listened to the Daily Audio Bible and then the prayer requests and the prayer read quest that came in from…I think it’s Gee. It just really broke my heart. I just want to let you…I wanted to let you know that I’m praying for you and that Jesus Christ heals you. What happened to you is horrible but you can let that go and it is over, it’s done, it’s the past. But you have nothing to feel guilt or shame about. You’re a new creation in Christ and He just…just like Brian said today in the message…he wants you to be stronger because of it. There are so many others out there. I was raped when I was 13. I was molested for years and years before that by my pastor and grandparent. So, God has made my life beautiful and I know that He wants that for you. So, please hear that and please know that you can have a happy and good life and Jesus Christ heals you. Okay? Sending my love and prayers.

Hi, my name is Kim, I’m a first-time caller and I just wanted to call and reference a few calls that have really touched my heart. I want to talk to the lady, I believe you said you’re going to refer to the name Gee. I listened today, 10/10 and you were raped at 17. And I just wanted to commend you for taking the step forward and letting that go. And I just want to tell you that you are not alone. I want you to know that it is not your fault. And you have taken the first step to healing and I will be praying for you. Margo in Australia, I heard your call today too. I’m going down the same road as you, trying to wean off of antidepressants. So, know I’m praying for you. Kaylee, whose son is 11, can I tell you that your story resonates with exactly what I’m going through with my son and daughter right now? I am praying for your son and just know that he is at an age where he is still impressionable and I am praying that he gets the help he needs. And you are a great mom. Thank you for calling. Candace from Oregon, I’m praying for Micah. Your prayer about a month ago really spoke to my heart. Thank you for being transparent. The lady from Canada whose son is on the street, I’m praying for him and for you. I love you all. Hope you’re having a great day. Please be in prayer for my family. Thank you.
