2 Kings 3:1-4:17, Acts 14:8-28, Ps 140:1-13, Pr 17:22

Today’s the 22nd day of June. Welcome to the Daily Audio Bible. I’m Brian. It’s good to be here with you as we’re gonna close a week down, complete another one of our weeks together, which really leaves us only one full week left in this sixth month of the year. So, we are definitely moving forward. We’ve been reading from the Amplified Bible this week and we’ll do that today. And we’ve been working our way through the life and times of the kings of Israel and the kings of Judah. Today, second Kings chapter 3 verse 1 through 4:17

Prayer:

Father, we thank You for another week in Your word. We are grateful for the way that it speaks truth into our lives every day and the way that it is day by day transforming us changing the way we think and feel and act about everything. So, come Holy Spirit, seal all that we have read this week into our hearts as we prepare to move forward into the new week. And we ask Father for a happy heart and a joyful mind because these are good medicine and cause healing. And we acknowledge a broken spirit dries up the bones. We have experienced each in our lives and we know that this is true, and yet so often we are focused upon our brokenness and not the good medicine of a happy heart and a joyful mind that only Your Holy Spirit can lead us toward and into. So, come Holy Spirit, we embrace this proverb and ask for a happy heart and a joyful mind. And we acknowledge that we’ll have to collaborate. You not gonna just drop this on us. We’ll have to collaborate. We open ourselves, our hearts and our minds to You that You might bring joy and happiness to us despite what might be going on in our lives. We reach for You is children coming up into Your arms where it is safe, where we do find comfort, and where a happy heart and a joyful mind can be found. Come Holy Spirit we pray. In the name of Jesus’, we ask. Amen.

Community Prayer and Praise:

Well hello from beautiful Cincinnati Ohio, this is Daniel Johnson Junior. It is Tuesday, June 18th, 2019. Just finished listening to today’s reading and I wanted to call in and share some good news, praise report. Number one, was my wife’s and I, our anniversary, 24 years June 17th and that has been great. Let’s see. Happy belated Father’s Day to everybody. And then also, I’ve been riding the bus to get to work for the past two years and every day, every moment, you know there’s sometimes when I’m on the bus, it takes me into northern Kentucky from downtown Cincinnati, I am the only rider and I know that God has set this up for, you know, a great occasion, you know, and I get these incremental moments. We just finished reading through about the Ethiopian eunuch story. Well yesterday, my driver, she says, “can I ask you question about God.?” I said, “Okay, what’s that?” So, she says, “why is it that when people talk I get so filled up?” And, so, I was a just able to start from right there and just say, “you know, I think that everyone of us has this desire for God in our hearts to, you know, we’re thinking about eternity __.” And she says, “I don’t go to church, I don’t read the Bible, you know.” And I said, “I think it’s so important, you now, 85% of people in the United States who proclaim…profess to be Christians don’t spend time in the Word daily. And I want to tell you about the Daily Audio Bible. I listen to the Bible because my primary method of learning is through listening.” And she says, “mine too.” And I said, “so you should check out the Daily Audio Bible.” And she says, “you know what? I might have that app already on my phone.” So, pray for her, her name’s Vicki and we’ll see how things go. God bless you all from beautiful Cincinnati Ohio. This is Daniel Johnson Junior.

Good morning family, this is Laura Lee in Boynton Beach, a.k.a. Mrs. Valiant. Praying for you Much Afraid and you pray for me. I feel called to go to Bhutan somewhere in China for a long time.

Anytime you need a drink, want a drink, feel like a drink, call me. We’ll exchange phone numbers. I will be your church. I am available Lord. Use me today. He has delivered me from much more than just alcohol, so much more. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers them out of them all. Lord, use us today. We are available. Like Elijah in the cave and what Brian said today, “if we are the only ones, let us be available for you to use us, giving our lives a living sacrifice, which is holy and presentable to God for you. You do not go by ability but…

Hi DAB family my name is Timothy, I’m calling from Asia in Taiwan. I just…I heard the broadcast on June 17th Daily Audio Bible about a prayer is needed for a four-month girl, Willow, who is going through a heart surgery. And my heart breaks for her and I want to pray for her right now at this moment. Dear heavenly father, I pray for Willow, that she’ll undergo a very smooth surgery, that the doctor will have the right skill and knowledge for the heart surgery and she will be healed completely. May our heavenly Father protect her. Let her heal in recover quickly. And no matter what, our prayer is with her. I know the Holy Spirit is with her and I know she will go through a very smooth and a very successful surgery and she will be healed completely. Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ name we pray for her. Amen. I will continue to pray for Willow and her recovery after the surgery and I hope she will be doing well…I know she will be doing well because God is with her and the Holy Spirit is with her. And please keep us posted on her situation and we will continue to pray for her. Thank you DAB family. We love you. Bye-bye.

Hi this is Tiffany from Arizona. I just heard Kelly from Australia on June 18th, 2019 and she was seven days sober and she said not to applaud. Kelly, I’m telling you, seven days of kicking an addiction is something to celebrate, something to applaud, and you are doing an amazing job. And I pray for you that the Lord will bless you with a lifetime of sobriety without withdrawals. Continue looking up. You’re gonna make it, you’re doing a great job, and it is something to celebrate. Thank you very much for calling in and I’m so glad that I heard your message and I’m praying for you. Love you. Bye.
