Today is the 19th day of June welcome to the Daily Audio Bible I’m Brian it’s always great to be here with you. Great to be here with you today as we bring to a close another one of the weeks that we get to spend together. We’ve been reading from the New Living Translation this week, which is what we’ll continue to do today. And we’ve been working our way through the book of first Kings which is what we’ll continue to do today. First Kings chapters 20 and 21.
Prayer:
Father we thank You for another week that we have been able to share time together centered around the Scriptures, time together to allow Your Holy Spirit to plant seeds in our lives that will reap a harvest. We thank You for another week in Your word. And as we continue this journey, come Holy Spirit. It’s almost our constant cry and request. Come Holy Spirit lead us into all truth we pray. In the name of Jesus, we ask. Amen.

Check out the Shop, the Daily Audio Bible Shop. It has a lot of resources that we’ve crafted over the years. There’s an entire Global Campfire section in the Daily Audio Bible Shop that is just…yeah…there’s stuff in there that reminds us of the journey that we’re on and that we come around the Global Campfire every day. So, like things to drink from or the Global Campfire candle. I remember when made this I guess a year and half ago-ish, working with a perfumer getting the aroma correct so that it’s pleasing but also so it kind of resembles campfire. When you smell the Global Campfire candle…yeah…it smells like a campfire. And what we’ve found over the years is just all of these little things inserted into our lives, these little things that, that change the atmosphere, they’re just a part of our story, but they give us that sense of connection and rootedness to the journey that we’re on together as we move through the Scriptures. And, so, yeah, check out the Global Campfire candle as well as the other stuff in the Global Campfire section of the Shop.

Community Prayer and Praise:
Hi DAB family this is Kathleen formerly Mt. Zion IL. I’ve got a new name coming that I will…I’ve never taken like a name outside of my name, but I think I finally have something. So, I will share that later but anyway I wanted to pray today for Chane, I believe you said. I’m not sure if you said Chanel or Chane but you’re from South Africa. And I just wanted to…you just touched me because it sounds like you…you’re either still a student, maybe high school, college I’m not sure but you said that you were…your parents had moved, and they don’t seem to understand what you’re going through with your loneliness and all. And I just wanted to tell you, you know, I was a high school teacher for 20 years and I often tell kids that, you know, a lot of the struggles they have with their parents is part of the separation process. I mean you…you become your own person. You know, someday you will be out of their house, and you will have to find your way. So…but I wanted to pray for you during this time because I know that. I have also…I’m also somebody who has moved many, many times and that horrible loneliness that you first feel. I mean I’m feeling it right now. We moved to another town, and I no longer have my job and I've…there’s just…yeah…there’s loneliness that really comes with that. But I've…I’m kind of a loner anyway. So, I…it doesn’t hit me maybe as hard as it does some other people. But I just…I want you to know I’m praying for you Chane. Lord Jesus…in fact I’m just going to pray right now. Lord Jesus I lift up Chane to You and just pray that You will let her see You and that You will bring her peace and joy. Amen.
Hi, I’m calling in today because I…I am beginning a new chapter in my life in a couple of short months, but I am gonna have to leave a lot of things behind. I’m going to college and as excited as I am for the journey and to move on with my future and start building it, I’m really nervous. I’ve never been away from home. I’ve never really been on my own and I’m just unsure what’s going to happen. I’ve been having a lot of anxiety lately and a lot of it’s because, obviously, I’m going to miss my parents being at home every day, but it’s going to be really hard for me to leave my boyfriend that I’ve had for over a year now in high school. A lot of people say it’s just puppy love but it’s very hard for me because as much as I do trust God and what His journey has from me, I would love if it was this guy in my life. And I see him in my life. But this journey is just going to be very hard, and I don’t know what it’s going to do to us. And I trust in God. I…I’m just looking for a prayer to help ease my nerves and truly believe that this process will be OK.
Hello Daily Audio Bible family this is Candace from Oregon. Please know that I’m praying for you each one as your calling in requests. And I want to share with you something the Holy Spirit has said to me over…many times over the last five years. And I think He is saying this to many of you as well. No groveling, no apologizing…apologies for who you are in Christ. Take the higher ground and bring others with you. [singing starts] Lord lift us up and let us stand by faith on heaven’s table land. A higher plane then I have found Lord plant my feet on higher ground [singing stops]. The brother who called who…who has been through a divorce and…and…and an abandonment through adultery. I just wanted to say when your body tells you you need a lot of sleep you probably do need a lot of sleep. You’re recovering from a lot. So be patient and sleep a lot and just do really good self care. Spend your time with your eyes focused on the Lord who loves you so dearly.
Hey guys it’s Sparky from Texas I just ask this group that you guys keep me in your prayers. And it’s been a rough day. My ex-wife wants to move a long way away with my boys. And she’s done that before, and it became a legal battle. And I just pray that y'all could stop that from happening and to help me be like Christ. I’m trying so hard not to…to react in anger. And I know Jesus wept and I’ve been weeping. And I know the power of this community and I just ask for prayer. It’s not a big thing to a lot of people, but I just love my kids and we’ve been through this. And, anyway I just wanted to give that to you all because you all are the most powerful people in the world and I love you all and be blessed.
