Be still and know that I am God. Psalm 46:10
Dear friends,
We hear Him say “Be still.” Biblically, to be still means to be quiet before Him and surrender control to Him. He is doing a work of patient perseverance in the Body of Christ. Kim and I are camping at His feet in Psalm 46 & Luke 10:38-42. Also, just this morning, I awoke to Obadiah 1. Stop fearing the evil elites worldwide, the giants in the land. The Lord of Hosts is our present help.

The following is a word we heard on 9/17/24. Kim and I have begun relying and calling upon Jesus as our Dread Champion. Join us!
“I am your Dread Champion. I fight for you, and win. Stop dreading what is coming. I am coming. My kingdom is always advancing. Take every fearful thought captive and bring it to Me. Bring it all to Me. Dont let anything come between you and Me. You are at your best in My Rest. The enemy is a liar. I will lead you and help you pull down the strongholds of the enemy in your family, church, and nation. Who dares to get between Me and My children? Stand up straight under Arm. Don’t give up, look up. Never forget. The enemy dreads Me and My return. Even when it looks and feels like I am losing a battle–will you trust me anyway…all the way? No more anticipatory dread. Look to Me. Enjoy Me. Look forward to what I’m going to do. I am your Dread Champion.” Jer 20:11; 2 Cor 10:4;Is 9:1-7; Luke 9; Habakkuk 3:17
