THE TRUMPET by Bill Burns -- 1/24/11

I say unto you, My people, if you will learn to develop the art of thanksgiving you will become a true worshiper. You'll become one who worships in truth and in spirit, says the Lord. For the Father is looking for such in these days, and I will have a people who praise Me, worship Me, and give the sacrifice of thanksgiving. I will again have a people who shout from the house tops that the Lord is good and His goodness is running throughout the land. For, in these days it must be that My people know Me, and they shall know Me in the power of their thanksgiving. It is written that I inhabit the praises of My people and I will do so and will become one with them in this the season of ongoing and continuing thanksgiving, says the Lord God.

SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by Marsha Burns -- 1/24/11:
Trust Me for sufficiency. I am your Jehovah Jireh, your Provider, says the Lord. Do not be afraid when you see the world systems continue to fall short, for you are under My economy and not that of the world. I will bring you through tough times when you trust Me to do so without fear or doubt.
Genesis 22:14 And Abraham called the name of the place, The-LORD-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, "In the Mount of The LORD it shall be provided."

Prayer Thought
You can always know where the thought is coming from when it directs you either toward God, or away from Him.

My prayer

Yes, search my heart oh God. Try me and know all of my thoughts. See if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in your way everlasting.

SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by Marsha Burns -- 1/11/11:

It's time for a change in many areas and on various levels. Some things have just outlived their usefulness or are outdated and do not serve your needs as efficiently as they once did. Things in the natural or outward things are only signs of an inward or spiritual change that is taking place as you draw closer to Me, says the Lord. The closer you get the greater your discernment and power in prayer and warfare. Draw near!

James 4:8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

Encouragement by Gordon Richards

Many believers have an ineffective prayer life because they feel God shows partiality. He loves you just as much as anyone else, see Acts 10:34. Start developing a quality prayer life, constantly go to Him with everything.

Prayer Thought
Thank You Lord that you’re never on vacation, never too busy, or never uninterested in whatever I need to bring to you in prayer.

A new day

Prayer Thought
Father, may I never forget to keep my eyes on You, and know that You care about my future. Note: "As long as we’re sufficient, we’ll never experience His sufficiency."
