New Every Morning - Audrey Assad
“I wish that you would bear with me in a little
foolishness; but indeed you are bearing with me. For I am jealous for you with a godly
jealousy; for I betrothed you to one husband, that to Christ I might present
you as a pure virgin. But I am afraid,
lest as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds should be led
astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ.
“For if one comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have
not preached or you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or
a different gospel which you have not accepted, you bear this beautifully.” II Corinthians 11:1-4
“Since then we have a great high priest who has passed
through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our
confession. For we do not have a high
priest who cannot sympathise with our weaknesses but one who has been tempted
in all things as we are, yet without sin.
Let us therefore draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that
we may receive mercy and may find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews
4:14-16
In the darkness of disappointment, His light shines as
brightly. We just have to open our eyes
and remember His mercies in our lives and how far we have come now.
Take care, your servant and friend in Christ, Darlene (who
prays for you each morning).

NEW PRAYER REQUESTS
·
USA – Pray the Lord will demonstrate His power in unexpected
and uniting ways during these times of unrest and confusion. Help hearts settle and rest in Him
alone. Let the truth of God’s Word and
ways overcome the drive to destroy our founding, Bible-based values. For Christ-centre, Bible-based revival in the
USA and religious freedom for Christians wherever they may be.
·
Kim –
whose Mom just died and whose father is quite frail and in his 90s. Pray the Lord will speak to Kim (the
responsible one) during this time of confusion and expectations that she will
rest in Christ.
·
UPDATE on Baby Jolie
– Some of you faithful prayers will remember Baby Jolie. We just received an update after eight months
of waiting. She was able to keep her
leg. She still has many surgeries
pending, but it is a great prayer victory.
She is slowly recovering but has a long way ahead for such a little
one! Keep praying for her and her
exhausted parents.
·
Bob –a
friend of my brother and sister-in-law who has just had a tragedy in his life. Pray the Lord uses these recent experiences
to help him realise his need for the Lord Jesus Christ.
·
Peyton
- eldest granddaughter of Jeff and Rachael.
Pray for this lovely woman of God as she goes off to college, that she
remains safe and strong in her beliefs and convictions and continues to encourage
many with her loving faithfulness to the Lord.
·
Tracey’s Mom –
home now. Her ability to think clearly
and care for herself is weakening. Pray
for a home health carer to be found and that her loved ones will make time to
help her through this time.
·
Tracey – fell and has broken three or four ribs and is now recovering. Pray she will be patient and that the pain will be managed.
·
Hans –
a dear friend in Germany, has stabilised.
His CT scan has shown no advancement of the cancer. He thanks you for your prayers and reports
that his left hand is also improving (it has been paralysed since this began). Please continuing to pray for his healthcare
providers, his patience and wisdom. Pray
he is surrounded by faithful and compassionate Christian friends who will
support him through this journey. Pray
for his Mom (age 83) is unwell herself, that their time together will be filled
with extraordinary good memories and lots of love.

USA President
Donald Trump – As Christians it
is our responsibility to pray for our leaders and trust that God has a plan for
the USA through this man. If you doubt
the importance of his appointment, just look at the baseless antagonism against
him. Surely Satan is NOT happy and means to thwart God’s plan. Pray someone helps President Trump and Melania understand the true meaning of a
personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Pray they will both have an insatiable hunger to read God’s Word for
themselves. Pray God sends a
Bible-Believing Christian to regularly disciple them in the Truth. Pray God shuts the mouths of the false
prophets who regularly circle around them.
Pray for those in full-time service
During this time, when the entire world is struggling to understand this new ‘plague’, it is critical for us to uphold our Christian leaders. They will be needed everywhere. Pray for their wisdom, safety, ingenuity, strength and for their families.
Pray for those with ongoing health concerns
Many of us have family, friends and loved ones who are fragile health wise. It is important to protect them in practical ways and most important we must pray even more for them that the Lord will have mercy on them during this challenging time.
