Numbers 26:1-51, Luke 2:36-52, Psalms 60:1-12, Proverbs 11:15

Today is the 17th day of March. Welcome to the Daily Audio Bible. I am Brian. It is always a pleasure to be here with you and its a special pleasure to be here with you today as we step into a brand-new week together and we like…at least I like stepping into these shiny, sparkly weeks because every Sunday I remember we’re starting over, and everything is out in front of us and it’s a new adventure. And, so, this new adventure for this new week will have us reading from the God’s Word Translation and we’ll pick up where we left off yesterday the book of Numbers today chapter 26 verses 1 through 51.

Prayer:

Thank You, Father for the opening of another week and that the promise of another week out in front of us. We thank You for Your word. We commit to the fact that Your word will be a part of this coming week. We invite Your Holy Spirit to speak through Your word planting the fruit of the spirit in our lives and yielding a bountiful harvest that gets poured out into the world through us because of the work of sanctification that You are doing each and every day in our lives. And one of the ways that that happens is through interaction with Your word and contemplation about Your word and inviting Your Holy Spirit in and all of the places that we may have walled off even from ourselves. Come Holy Spirit, make us whole, we want to be well, we want to see. We pray these things in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Community Prayer and Praise:

Hi, my name is Luke. I would like the Daily Audio Bible listeners to pray for my deliverance. Today I pray deliverance prayers for the spirit of Jezebel and the spirit of narcissism as well as a bunch of other things, like a lot of things. It seems like almost hopeless because the list was so long and the reality of my situation of things that I need to be delivered of is so big and I just have a lot going on mentally right now and just need a lot of prayer and just thankful for this program and, you know, pray that I can just continue to grow, not be fake because that is what the spirit of narcissism…and just some of the things that I have going on mentally from…I’ve sinned so much in my lifetime and, you know, I was involved in drugs and all kinds of things and just really bad, really bad. So, the list of things that I need to be delivered from is deeper than what I actually knew and it’s really tough and it’s a mental battle every day, but God’s been giving me the grace to get through it and his program is helping a lot. My friend…shout out to my brother Leonard for showing this program and I just thank you guys for praying for me and I’m praying the people that I hear on the prayer request line. So, yeah, just, you know, deliverance all around the board, mental stability. I’ve had God show up so much in my life especially in the past few months. I don’t know how doubt or unbelief whatever creeps in my brain, but it does somehow sometimes. So…

This is Kathy from Kentucky and I want to thank Blind Tony for praying for my nephew today. Also let you know he continues to need prayer for his addiction problem but also my brother has less a week to live. He could go at any time he’s in hospice care. It’s very hard on me and the rest of the family, but for me personally it means giving up the first childhood buddy I had, and I’ll always have those memories but just pray for my brother to go in peace, that he can go in his sleep. And Lord he’s suffering right now, and we ask you to send Lord we just ask you to send my brother to his people in peace. Sorry, I’, mixing up my prayer with a prayer request but that’s how I do it. Anyways, Kathy from Kentucky, pray for a peaceful death for my brother. Thank you. Bye.

Hi, it’s Nicola from California and I have a praise report. So, 2018 and the beginning of 2019 were a rough time for me. I basically was in the wilderness. I moved cross country for a job and I ended up being emotionally abused and exploited by a by employer and it was a dream job, so I had to quit that, and I moved in with my parents and was unemployed for several months. I was just feeling very lost and I unfortunately grumbled like the Israelites, yet God provided for me in so many ways. I had a home to stay in, I had food. He even found a way to __ free therapy. I had someone sponsor me so I could go to free sessions with a therapist who has been so incredible. He has even provided travel for me and I grumbled either way, but I have now entered the promised land. I was applying to jobs and things weren’t working out and I was getting very frustrated __ but then my dad had the brilliant idea about applying to grad school in Scotland. I’ve always wanted to study in the UK. Since my father is British I’ve always wanted to do that and within three weeks of deciding to apply and applying I have already been admitted and I’m moving to Scotland which is a dream come true. So, I just want to say, if you’re in the wilderness right now I know it’s so hard not to grumble and not to complain but know that your promised land is coming soon and that is gonna be bigger and better than you expected and as hard as it is just trust the Lord. He is going to take care of you and everything is going to work out greater than expected as it has for me. Thank you. Bye.

Hi, my name is Claire calling from Bloomington Minnesota. I’ve been listening for well probably around nine months now and I make it a part of my day every day __. My prayer request is for both of our daughters. I have a daughter that’s 22 and a daughter that 17 and both for the last five years have gone through some really tough stuff. My older daughter was in an abusive relationship for about __ we were finally able to get her out about a year ago. She has almost __. And my other daughter is 17 and a great athlete have her world pretty much taken away by suffering three ACL knee injuries in a row and never really found her way back or her plan for her life and I feel both daughters struggle with feelings of low self-esteem and sadness. If you could pray for both of them, Gabby is my older daughter and __ is my younger daughter, that the Holy Spirit would just fill them up and they look to the Lord with great joy __ for them and that they are among __ kids their age and people that can mentor them and guide them and help them and just so much __ the Holy Spirit to come upon their lives and that their on fire for the Lord. Thank you, family. We love you all. And I look forward to hearing and praying, continuing every day. And thank you Brian reading every day. You’re a great voice to listen to and so calming…
