2 Chronicles 24:1-25:28, Romans 12:1-21, Psalms 22:19-31, Proverbs 20:8-10
Today is the 29th day of July welcome to the Daily Audio Bible I am Brian and it is wonderful to be here around the Global Campfire together with you as we bring another of the weeks that we get to share together to a close. And we’re bringing a week to a close, but we’re right here at the end of a month as well. So, we have some endings and some beginnings in front of us and that seems to be the nature of life. So, let’s step forward together. Our next step forward in the Scriptures leads us back in the book of second Chronicles. And today second Chronicles chapters 24 and 25.
Prayer:
Father, we thank You. We thank You deeply, sincerely from the bottom of our hearts. From a full heart we thank You for Your word and the guidance that it provides to our lives, the way that it orients our lives to move in a certain direction. And that direction is in Your presence. And we are grateful. And we take to heart what we were learning from the apostle Paul in Romans today about living love in action in our lives. And, so, along with the Scriptures we ask Holy Spirit, come help us to hate what is evil and cling to what is good. Help us to be devoted to one another in love and to honor one another above ourselves, to not be so self-absorbed and self-focused. We pray that we would not be lacking in zeal, but that our spiritual fervor would be ignited by serving You. May we be joyful in hope. Holy Spirit, come and help us be patient in affliction. Help us be faithful in prayer. May we be observant and share with all of Your people, our brothers and sisters, those who are in need. Help us Father to bless those who persecute us, to bless and not curse, to rejoice with those who rejoice, to mourn with those who mourn, to live in harmony with one another other. Father, You have given us guidance. You have given us the path that will lead to peace not only in our own hearts but in this world. You have given us what we need and we have not been wise. Holy Spirit, come and make us wise. Bring the words from the Scriptures that we immerse ourselves in each day back to mind as we make the choices that we make. We need You. We need You now. We need You five minutes from now. We need You at every moment of our lives. And to that need You’ve simply said, okay, here I am, I am here. And yet we ignore Your presence so often to our own peril. And, so, come Holy Spirit and lead us into all truth we pray in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Community Prayer and Praise:
Good morning Daily Audio Bible it is the 25th of July and it’s Ezekiel ’s birthday. I heard Brian telling the story of how Ezekiel came into the world. I was not a member of Daily Audio Bible at that time. I was reading the Daily Bible from 1986. When I encountered the printed page it changed my life. Now I’m a part of this community and Ezekiel has come into my life and the life of each one of us and has changed us in such an awesome way. He’s not only ministering to kids but he’s ministering to each one of us as adults. The lines of the younger ones are ministering to us. And, so, I just want to thank God for Ezekiel’s life. I’m going to pray for You Ezekiel now. And Ezekiel I’m praying for You that God will continue to use You in a mighty way. Obviously, He had…he’s had his hand on Your life from the time You were in Jill’s womb and You’re here and You’re making a tremendous blessing a tremendous difference, pardon me, in the lives of so many people. Father, we pray for Ezekiel that You’ll continue to use him mightily. We pray Lord God that the plans and the purposes that You have for his life will be fully operationalized as he goes through his life and that he will be a blessing to his mom and dad and that he would be a blessing to the next generation as we obviously see that he is already. We bless him, we bless him, and we bless him mightily in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Hello, my name is Shirley. I live in North Carolina. I live and work at a Christian campus and I’m blessed with that. I have…my husband and I have five grandchildren, fourteen grandchildren and three great grandchildren. I’m one of the introverts that just listening in the background but do pray for each prayer request. Father, bless this DABbing community and thank You Father for allowing me to be a part of it. Thank You, Lord in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Hey good morning this is Gift of God calling in. Just want to wish Ezekiel a wonderful happy birthday. Ezekiel we just adore listening to you read the Bible and your prayers, I tell you, are awesome. You are really maturing in the word of God and we just love listening, my granddaughter. Just wanted to say happy birthday and By-E.
Hey DAB family it’s your sister Ashley from California. Today is July 25th. I called in this last weekend to ask for prayer for my son Jackson and I. Jackson has T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and he is finishing up the fourth phase of chemo. His counts were very low, a zero in fact and if a fever popped up we would be admitted. Well, it did and we’ve been here since Thursday night. But I want to come on here to say a couple of other things. One, what a good God that we have the technology to access his word and a biblical community like this. It’s truly a blessing. I’m grateful for it during these hospital stays. And the second thing is is that God’s word is alive and active. The past couple of days from Romans 8 and Psalm 19 blessed my socks off. To know that my job is to believe, trust, and obey when challenges come because there’s nothing that’s separates us from Christ’s love. And when we’re lost, being in the word is more precious than anything. Trusting and obeying leads us to wholeness and it brings us to what we need. So, I just want to say thank you Brian for your faithful teaching and for leading and guiding us and I just want to say thank you DAB family for being a part of my life. I love you and I’m praying with you and for you all. Alright. Bye.
