Crosswalk www.crosswalk.com Quiet Walk - June 24 24 Jun 2011, 5:00 am June 24 2 Kings 19 When Sennacherib attacks Jerusalem, Hezekiah calls upon the Lord. INSIGHT In spite of all the trouble that comes upon Israel and Judah, God wants to bless them. It is only as He is blessing them that His desire for the world is advanced. All that is needed is obedience. Hezekiah demonstrates just how quickly everything can turn around. He is looking into the jaws of an Assyrian military machine one minute, and the Assyrians are routed the next. God is not reluctant to bless us. But we must be sure we are eligible by being faithful to Him. PRAYER Praise the Lord; for He controls the universe and does all things for our good: The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars, Yes, the Lord splinters the cedars of Lebanon. He makes them also skip like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild ox. The voice of the Lord divides the flames of fire. The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness; The Lord shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh. The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth, And strips the forests bare; And in His temple everyone says, "Glory!" The Lord sat enthroned at the Flood, And the Lord sits as King forever. The Lord will give strength to His people; The Lord will bless His people with peace. (Psalm 29:5-11) Pray this confession to the Lord as you seek to keep your life free from sin: "Now, therefore," says the Lord, "Turn to me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning." So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the Lord your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm. (Joel 2:12-13). Confess any sins that the Holy Spirit brings to your mind. Now pray this affirmation to the Lord: "God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world,  but that the world through Him might be saved (John 3:17). As you make your requests known to the Lord, include: -- Greater faith in God's goodness -- Those who've never heard the Gospel -- Whatever else is on your heart Offer this prayer to the Lord: Jesus, You are the door. If anyone enters by You, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture (based on John 10:9).  Receive teachings, global updates, and free resources with Walk Thru the Bible's free Living God's Word.
