Called By Christ To Be ONE: GUARD YOUR HEART

Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever

Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.

Today, it is critical that those who have a heart for God are aware of what God is doing and speaking today. God is opening up His Word like never before in preparation for The Time Of The END. I exhort you to open up your heart and your eyes to see what He is doing and your ears to hear what God is speaking at this time. My prayer is that we will be able to stand before the Son of Man at His appearing, without fault and with great joy. I encourage you to read David Wilkerson's book, America's Last Call at davidwilkersontoday.blogspot.com. Also, Google, Tommy Hicks Prophecy, 1961 for a view of the End Times.

Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.

To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.

Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!

Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!

Today, America is being ground to powder because of it's SIN against God!

GUARD YOUR HEART

Friend --

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Proverbs 4:23 NIV

As we step into November, we will focus on the Military sphere with Veterans Day approaching, as well as Thanksgiving, with a clear understanding that we pray for our military members and families throughout the year, and we express thanks to our Lord every day. These are just two more examples, like The National Day of Prayer, where we have a special day that we participate in and celebrate together but we also live out each day.

Those who serve in all branches of the military know the importance of every piece of their uniform, gear, and weapons. Each piece is vital to guard and preserve a particular part of their body or used to fight and defend themselves when facing the enemy. Going into battle without it is not only foolish but deadly.

Scripture says that the same is true for us as worshippers and warriors of Jesus Christ. We must put on the full armor of the God with prayer is as vital to our armor as communications with the commander is to the military. The Breastplate of Righteousness protects the heart as we walk through the daily trials and trouble that Jesus warned us we would encounter every day on earth. Thankfully Jesus commands us to “Take heart!” because while the earthly battle is not over, the eternal the war has been won.

Today’s verse speaks to the extraordinary significance of guarding our hearts. Note that it explains that everything you do flows from your heart. We might think that would be our brain, but the heart informs and inspires your thoughts. Your values are determined in your heart and then revealed in your decisions: the way you “feel” or value family, friends, your job, an opportunity, a desire or dream, goals, priorities, etc. all flow from the heart. In addition, our first testimony as a follower of Jesus sounds something like this, “I invited Jesus to come into my heart.” The heart is where Jesus reigns in your life, where the Holy Spirit works a harvest of fruitfulness, and the enemy attacks our “feelings.” These are deep thoughts that we will ponder and pray through together in the upcoming weeks and year.

The New American Standard Bible translates Proverbs 4:23 as,

“Watch over your heart with all diligence, for from it flow the springs of life.”

I encourage you to take note in your prayer journal in the upcoming weeks of what you are praying about and why. I believe you will see it is because everything you pray about you care about in other words, everything that fills your prayers also fills your heart. We praise God because we are in awe of Him and love Him, we thank Him with our hearts, we intercede for people and problems that touch our hearts. God calls us to love our neighbor and as we pray for our neighbors and nation, we express that love in our heart. Despite our country’s numerous problems and pitfalls, we refuse to give up fervently praying and fighting for her and the direction and destiny that we know God requires and desires for America. Thank you for joining us in that battle every day!

Will you please join me now in prayer?

Lord Jesus we are Your worshippers and warriors created in You, by You, for You and the good works You have already prepared for us. We put on the full armor of God, pray to You for direction, provision, and protection as we go out and fight the good fight every day against the enemy who sets himself against You and Yours. Lord, we thank You for the brave men and women serving in the U.S Military. We are deeply grateful for their sacrifices and service every day as they keep us safe and defend freedom around the world. We pray fervently every day for their families as well as everyone who put on the uniform each day; intercessors serving as spiritual armor-bearers battling in the heavenlies for all that they need. Let our prayers be a sword and shield against the enemy that they face each day in their service to our country and in their lives as they serve You. In the powerful and protecting name of Jesus we pray, Amen!

P.S. We are excited to reveal our 2023 National Day of Prayer theme video to you tomorrow on our social media and website. If you do not receive notifications when we have posted a new video on Facebook and Instagram, we encourage you to go in and update that option on your social media accounts, so we never miss the opportunity to share special events with you and to pray together every week!

Serving Him with gladness,
