Hi Saints ,
Please join us tonight as we gather together to pray and to study God's word. Tonight we will be studying Mark 4:35-41. It is such a privilege to come before the Lord of Lords and King of Kings and to cry out to our Heavenly Father. The need for personal and corporate revival has never been greater than it is today. There was a time of wickedness before when men done only what was right in their own eyes. They were lawless, they were a law unto themselves. And in the background they could hear a hammer. As they went about their business, buying and selling and marrying and giving in marriage, there was that infernal noise of hammering. It was a constant reminder to them that there was man who talked about a coming flood. A flood, how preposterous. And so they went about their business and ignored the man with the hammer who , every day for over one hundred years, hammered away, un-relentlessly hammered away. He had been ordered by God to build an ark and build an ark he would. Despite the ridicule, despite the scorn, despite the offense to the lawless, he lived his life according to what God had commanded. And his life's work would be the key to a life after death. Brothers and sisters, can the world hear our hammering? What are we building with our lives that can weather the biggest storm? Is our work here on earth an expression of salvation to a lost and dying and soon to be judged world? What has been built by our lives that could ead to the saving of others? Do we continue to build despite the ridicule, despite the scorn? Is the manual labor that we do, directed by the master builder? Is the constructs of our lives designed and shaped by He who builds? Let us be found to be as faithful as Noah in the days ahead and all the more as we begin to feel the first rain drops. There must be an urgency to finish the work as the rain begins to fall, as the darkness begins to cover the earth, as lawlessness abounds. No retreating from the work but an increasing for the time is surely at hand......................bro Frank

Meditation:
See, the day of the LORD is coming--a cruel day, with wrath
and fierce anger--to make the land desolate and destroy the
sinners within it.
--Isaiah 13:9 (NIV)
Quotation:
The holiness of God, the wrath of God, and the health of
the creation are inseparably united. Not only is it right for
God to display anger at sin, but I find it impossible to
understand how He could do otherwise.
God's wrath is His utter intolerance of whatever degrades
or destroys.
