Ezra 4:24-6:22, 1 Corinthians 3:5-23, Psalm 29:1-11, Proverbs 20:26-27
Today is August 7th, welcome to the Daily Audio Bible, I am Brian, it’s wonderful as it always is to be here with you as we come around the Global Campfire together. Exhale, let it all go for a little bit as we just allow the Scriptures to come into our lives with open hearts and open minds, pushing pause on the cares of life, giving ourselves permission to catch our breath and reorient ourselves to God and allow his Spirit to renew us. So, let’s dive into the Old Testament. We’re in the book of Ezra today chapter 4 verse 24 through 6 verse 22.
Prayer:
Father, we thank You for Your word and again we thank You for another week that has gone by, another week, this first full week of August this eighth month of the year and we are grateful for Your faithfulness to us and for the gift of the Scriptures that You have offered to us to counsel and correct and lead and direct our steps. So, Holy Spirit, we invite You to come into all that we read this week, all that we talked about this week and seal it in our hearts that it might yield fruits. The fruit of this spirit in our lives. We ask this in the precious name of Jesus. Amen.

Hello, this is Debbie from Canada. And my son Lucas really needs prayer. He’s struggled keeping jobs. He’s just moved to the big city and he’s lost 5 jobs already. He’s on the autism scale but he’s still quite independent, so he struggles with obsessiveness and listening and remembering. He’s slow and so he really needs to find work where the boss and the company understand his situation and there willing to keep him on and he really needs that stability. He…he knows Jesus, he knows that he is loved and but he’s just really struggling and angry and doesn’t get it. Also, his girlfriend is not a Christian and it’s not a good situation there really either so I’d really appreciate if you could pray for Lucas that he could find stable work situation. Thank you so much. I listen to DAB all the time. Bye for now.
Hello brothers and sister. I’m excited. It’s been a little bit again but I’m still less than a month behind. But I just felt encouraged to call and just some encouragement and some prayer. Cheering Jasmine from Florida, no sorry, Jasmine from Virginia and then having her talk about Lorenzo from Florida. I mean, like it is, it’s encouraging for myself being in that age group and I’m just, I’m just glad God has us here. And just to pray over school, maybe you’re gonna be senior maybe look for colleges just maybe were still high school. But I just pray that God might take us on a journey that is glorious. I mean, really glorious. And that throughout that journey we might praise Him and He just might get that praise. It makes me feel a little bit more comfortable if there are people in this community that are my age. I just pray a blessing on all the teenagers. And just tonight August 3rd I am thanking God for this community. In Jesus name. Amen.
