Sensitive to Warning
"Because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the Lord when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they would become a desolation and a curse, and you tore your clothes and wept before Me, I also have heard you," says the Lord.
~ 2 Kings 22:19
"Many despise warnings and perish: Happy is he who trembles at the word of God. Josiah did so, and he was spared of evil, which the Lord determined to send upon Judah because of her great sins. Have you this tenderness? Then you also shall be spared in the evil day.
God sets a mark upon the men that sigh and cry because of the sin of the times. The destroying angel is commanded to keep his sword in its sheath till the elect of God are sheltered. Are the times threatening? Do you dread national chastisement upon this polluted nation? Well you may rest in this promise, "You shall be gathered to your grave in peace; and your eyes shall not see all the calamity which I will bring on this place" (2Kings 22:20)."

FATHER IN HEAVEN, I PRAISE YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO STUDY TO STUDY YOUR WORD AND LEARN ABOUT SPIRITUAL WARFARE. PLEASE OPEN MY MIND TO THE TRUTH AND HELP ME TO CONCENTRATE ON WHAT YOU WANT TO TEACH ME. IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, I BIND ANY EVIL SPIRITS FROM INTERFERING WITH MY STUDY TIME TODAY.
