Morning by Morning, October 23 - The Days of the Bible Are Becoming the Days of Our Times Good morning, Lord Jesus. I entrust my life into Your hands today -- all the thoughts I think, all the desires I feel, all the words I speak. ... The days of the Bible are becoming the days of our times, as Your Prophetic Words are being fulfilled before our eyes. Bible days are becoming our days almost every day. So let Your Word keep us grounded. And let Your Spirit keep us praying. Even nations of people mentioned long ago are now coming into position in fulfillment -- whether in whole or in part -- of Your Ancient Words that are ever true. Give us eyes to see, ears to hear, and discernment to pray. And as we see nations and people mentioned in Your Word aligning for the wars and battles of our day, let us always remember that our true enemy is never the human beings involved, but the spiritual forces of wickedness behind them, which motivate them. “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places” (Ephesians 6:12). As I listen and pray, these ominous, foreboding Words from Your Scripture come to mind today from Psalm 83. And even as I write it and pray it and say it, would You move in Your mercy for the lives of all people, even as You move in Your power against the spiritual forces of wickedness behind any of these people and nations: “Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God! 2 For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head. 3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. 4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” “5 For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against You: 6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagrites; 7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; 8 Assyria also has joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot. Selah “9 Deal with them as with Midian, As with Sisera, As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon, 10 Who perished at En Dor, Who became as refuse on the earth. 11 Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb, Yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, 12 Who said, “Let us take for ourselves The pastures of God for a possession.” 13 O my God, make them like the whirling dust, Like the chaff before the wind! 14 As the fire burns the woods, And as the flame sets the mountains on fire, 15 So pursue them with Your tempest, And frighten them with Your storm. 16 Fill their faces with shame, That they may seek Your name, O Lord. 17 Let them be confounded and dismayed forever; Yes, let them be put to shame and perish, 18 That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord, Are the Most High over all the earth. (Psalm 83:1-18). Turn all this into a time when all turn to You -- “That they may seek Your name, O Lord” (v. 16). “That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord, are the Most High over all the earth” (v. 18). For the Truth is, for Your Heart is “longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Timothy 2:3-4). Lord, let it be so. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
