Deliverance from Dust and Chaff
"Surely I will command, and will sift the house of Israel among all nations, as grain is sifted in a sieve; yet not the smallest grain shall fall to the ground."
~ Amos 9:9
"The sifting process is going on still. Wherever we go, we are still being winnowed and sifted. God's people are being tried "as grain is sifted in a sieve." Sometimes the devil holds the sieve and tosses us up and down with the earnest desire to get rid of us forever. The world lends a willing hand at the same process and shakes us to the right and to the left with great vigor.
Well, let it go on. Thus is the chaff severed from the wheat. Thus is the wheat delivered from dust and chaff. And how great is the mercy that comes to us in the text, "yet not the preserved that is good, true, gracious. Not one of the least of believers shall be lost; neither shall any believer lose anything worth calling a loss." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
Lord, Thank You for all the days to come, that not one believer will be lost.I pray that this will be the year that all Your believer's will be delivered out of the hands of the devil, that we will be brought into our promise lands O Lord.That those who are sick and dying in their bodies will be healed,those who are in pain and are weak in body and in spirit that they will get up and dust there feet from the ground they have been walking on;that we will walk with our heads held high with no shame that we serve an awesome God like Yourself,that we will not have to hide no more that we will be able to worship anywhere we want, that we will be able to preach the gospel to the nations without getting shot or hung on the gallos for our faith.We call upon You O Lord, deliver us out of the hand of the enemy, this we pray as one body in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
