Ecclesiastes 10:1-12:14, 2 Corinthians 8:1-15, Psalms 49:1-20, Proverbs 22:20-21
Today is September 5th welcome to the Daily Audio Bible I’m by Brian it is wonderful to be here with you as we greet a brand-new week, and we walk through the threshold together and look out across what will be and realize none of it is yet to be yet. I don’t even know if that’s proper English, but none of it is here yet it’s in front of us and we have…we have a say. And if we plan and consider our steps, we have a say in what this week is going to look like. And, so, allowing the Scriptures to be a part of those decisions…yeah…that’s only gonna do us…that’s only gonna do us good. And, so, let’s take that next step forward together. We’ve been reading from the book of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament. We will conclude this work of Ecclesiastes today and move forward into some new territory tomorrow. This week we’ll read from the Voice Translation. Ecclesiastes chapters 10, 11, and 12.
Prayer:
Father, we thank You. We thank You for Your word and we thank You as we walk into this brand-new shiny sparkly week that Your word is there to guide us as we come together around this Global Campfire every day, as we come into this oasis of safety together to allow You to speak. And, so, come Holy Spirit and plant what we’ve learned today, what we read today in our hearts and continue to challenge us with all of the different places in our hearts and lives that You’ve touched so far this year through the Scriptures. We open ourselves to the continued transformative nature of sanctification as we continue the process of being set apart, being made holy. Come Jesus we ask in Your precious name. Amen.
Community Prayer and Praise:
Hey DAB family this is Lita calling from Maryland. This goes out to Gigi from G…from Gville. I heard your testimony on August 30th, and it aired on August 27th. I’m a little behind but I’m so glad that I didn’t skip ahead and miss your testimony. Girl, I am so proud of you, how you got the revelation that God has brought you through, that he healed you, He healed you of Lyme disease, He comforted you over your father’s death and now He’s blessed you with a baby. And I am so excited for you and so happy for you. And it just takes that revelation and the prayers of the DAB family. So, I am really excited for you, grateful for your testimony, and just thankful that you got that revelation girl. Everything will be well. Take care.
Hey DAB family this is his Beloved in Texas and I just ask you guys to come…to just agree with me in prayer right now. Father You know the financial struggles that my family’s going through right now and I know that You can make a way where there seems to be no way. Father You can provide all of our needs according to Your riches and glory in Christ Jesus and Your strengths are made of gold so there is nothing that our God cannot do. There is no…there is no lack that You can’t fill Father. And I just pray that You will forgive us for the times that we’ve not been good stewards of what You’ve given us Father. I ask for wisdom in that stewardship Lord, and I ask for blessing. I ask for You to just show up and show out Father and for that to be a testament of Your power and Your glory and Your love to my 14-year-old who doesn’t even believe there is a God Father. I pray that You would use these situations to show Yourself to her, not only to strengthen our faith but to show Yourself to her in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Hello, my beautiful family it’s Susan from Canada, God’s Yellow Flower calling in and this is August 31st and today is one of those days where every single one of the prayer requests have touched my heart, especially the lady who called in who has many children and grandchildren and found out her husband is a pedophile. And having had some sexual…childhood sexual abuse, not from my father but from other people I’m really, really with that and I pray healing upon the children and grandchildren and healing and forgiveness and mercy within the wife’s soul for her husband and of course for her healing…for her husband as well. Dear sweet Jesus You heard my prayer request and I just ask Your healing touch upon each and every one that is…it is a disaster like she said, and I just ask that You move in this family. Be the comfort, be the healing power within and help forgiveness and mercy to reign in that family. Unite them together in cords of love that cannot be broken as they support one another and work through this horrible, horrible situation. Lord God help them well to recover and soar with You once again. In Jesus’ precious and holy name, I pray Amen.
Hi, my name is Jack I live in Birmingham. So, I’ve got these like really hard tests coming up and I was hoping you guys could pray for me before the tests start. And I usually don’t do very well so that’s the reason I’m calling in. If you could pray for me that would be really helpful.
Hi this is Paul from Ohio. I am once again amazed as I listen to the Daily Audio Bible. I’ve been listening for over a decade, and it still amazes me that this seems to be one of the only places in the world that I found where people truly, truly love each other the way Jesus loved us or loved the church. People cry for other people they’ve never met on the other side of the world. I mean there’s no hidden motives there. We are truly invested in the welfare of our brothers and sisters and just seeing that lets me know, gives me faith that this exists as it says in John 13:34-35, a new commandment I give you, love one another as I have loved you. So, you also must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples if you love one another. Again, where else do we see this? Where else do we see a British man praying for an American person who they’ve never met, they’ve never seen? They’re crying tears for their travails. It is truly amazing and truly faith providing, faith insurance for me. And we know the last 30 minutes is the hardest part of faith and it’s with each other that we get through that. I pray everybody has a blessed day. Amen.
