Psalm 121

I lift up my eyes to the hills-

where does my help come from?

My help comes from the LORD ,

the Maker of heaven and earth.

He will not let your foot slip-

he who watches over you will not slumber;

indeed, he who watches over Israel

will neither slumber nor sleep.

The LORD watches over you-

the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

6 the sun will not harm you by day,

nor the moon by night.

The LORD will keep you from all harm-

he will watch over your life;

the LORD will watch over your coming and going

both now and forevermore.

I love all the Psalms but the following has been special to me since first hearing about my grandmother's diagnosis of terminal cancer and of her going to be with the Lord last week. It's also special because it talks about Jesus rescuing us from spiritual death...

Psalm 116

1

I love the LORD because he hears

and answers my prayers.

2

Because he bends down and listens,

I will pray as long as I have breath!

3

Death had its hands around my throat;

the terrors of the grave[1] overtook me.

I saw only trouble and sorrow.

4

Then I called on the name of the LORD:

"Please, LORD, save me!"

5

How kind the LORD is! How good he is!

So merciful, this God of ours!

6

The LORD protects those of childlike faith;

I was facing death, and then he saved me.

7

Now I can rest again,

for the LORD has been so good to me.

8

He has saved me from death,

my eyes from tears,

my feet from stumbling.

9

And so I walk in the LORD's presence

as I live here on earth!

10

I believed in you, so I prayed,

"I am deeply troubled, LORD."

11

In my anxiety I cried out to you,

"These people are all liars!"

12

What can I offer the LORD

for all he has done for me?

13

I will lift up a cup symbolizing his salvation;

I will praise the LORD's name for saving me.

14

I will keep my promises to the LORD

in the presence of all his people.

15

The LORD's loved ones are precious to him;

it grieves him when they die.

16

O LORD, I am your servant;

yes, I am your servant, the son of your handmaid,

and you have freed me from my bonds!

17

I will offer you a sacrifice of thanksgiving

and call on the name of the LORD.

18

I will keep my promises to the LORD

in the presence of all his people,

19

in the house of the LORD,

in the heart of Jerusalem.

Praise the LORD!

My two favorite Psalms are 91 and 35.

I love Psalms 35 since it's a Psalm that I often pray.

I'll just post the first few verses along with how I pray often,

Psa 35:1 Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.

Lord, I come to you and ask you Father that you fight against them that fight against me and against the ministry!

Psa 35:2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.

Lord, place upon me the entire armor of God and help me to walk in your power!

Psa 35:3 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.

Psa 35:4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.

Psa 35:5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them.

Psa 35:6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.

Father, send forth angels and drive the enemy from me!

Psa 35:7 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have digged for my soul.

Psa 35:8 Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.

Father, I ask you that destruction would come upon the enemy of my soul, and Lord I ask you that the net that was prepared for my destruction would entangle the enemy in the very trap he has prepared for me.

Psa 35:9 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation.

I praise you Father and my joy is in you and I rejoice in Jesus the author and finisher of my faith!

Pray Psalms and passages of the Word -- it's one of the most effective methods of praying that is hardly ever discussed!

Your brother in Christ with much agape love,

George

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
