Then the LORD answered prayer … — 2 Samuel 24:25 How does the LORD decide when to answer prayer? In this case, He waited until David acknowledged his sin, interceded for those who were suffering, and refused to sacrifice something that cost him nothing, but instead insisted on paying the full price to purchase the site and the animals for the offering. How and when will God decide to answer your prayer? I don’t know. But I do know this: Unanswered prayers are a great opportunity. Each time we bring them back to God, we discover some unexpected treasure –…

He snatched the spear from the Egyptians’s hand and killed him with his own spear. — 2 Samuel 23:21 Why does God give us impossible challenges? Because any other kind are – well – boring. Benaiah could have looked at the club in his own hand. But instead, he looked at the spear in the Egyptian’s hands. This reminds me of Ashley, a cat we owned years ago. She was a feisty creature who preferred biting…
Good Morning! – or good whatever time it is for you. I’d like to say some "spring and new life and grass growing" kind of thing, but I can’t. The lawn is growing like a 14 year old boy. Totally out of control. Everyone’s kids are antsy, waiting for summer break to come. It seemed as if we were shoveling snow one day and getting out the lawn mower the next. I’m ready to sell this time-sucker of a house and do the condo thing. What a whiner! I want to introduce a new friend, Lilada Gee. Lilada is from Fountain…

Special to ASSIST News ServiceWELLINGTON, NZ (ANS) — Developments in the Hutt Valley – the dormitory suburbs of New Zealand’s national capital, Wellington – over the past 13 years have brought churches to the point where they can declare there is one church in Hutt City with many congregations.
It could be easy to miss, tucked in between the Trek Bicycle Shop and the Princeton Club, just across the street from East Towne Mall. There’s no big sign above the door. One clue that it’s not just another store front or office suite is the cascading wall of water sculpture just inside the front door. It’s symbolic, perhaps, of the cascade of prayers raining down upon Madison from within.It’s the Madison House of Prayer for All Nations, a non-denominational prayer and worship center, located at 1714 Eagan Road.
