1. Before I tell others to read the Bible, I must read the BIBLE myself!
2. Before I tell others to proclaim the GOOD NEWS, I must proclaim it myself!
HOW CAN I MAKE MY DAYS COUNT?
1. Studying the BIBLE, the Word of the Living God.
a. Joshua 1:8 “…; meditate on it day and night,…”
b. Acts 17:17 “.. he reasoned ….. day by day…..”
2. Telling others, what the LORD has done for me.
a. Psalm 96:2
b. Acts 17:17
c. Second Kings 7:9
d. First Chronicles 16:23
The quote above is taken from a one page publication called “THE VOICE” (Doubtless Bay Christian Centre) I received today at the market in Kaitaia.
Isaiah is of course a prophetic book in the Bible (O.T.) like Jeremiah and the other prophets.
What I am afraid of is that we are calling somebody a prophet today who really is only a guy and not a prophet at all.
“Against the changing panorama of human rule, and overruling the passions and powers of man, God pursues His eternal purposes. Man is not left to drift along. The divine plan is never behind schedule.”- Robert Hoggard

Do I ever like the title of the book HIT THE GROUND KNEELING about leadership by Stephen Cottrell. He is the Anglican Bishop of Reading.
“‘Give me children, or I’ll die!'”
That’s what Rachel said to Jacob in Genesis 30:1. She was of course asking for physical children.
Let us think about spiritual children , and let us ask the Lord to bring us to the point where we can say to the Lord:
GIVE ME SPIRITUAL CHILDREN, OR I’LL DIE!
