"Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not." Jeremiah 33:3 God loves it when His children pray and seek His face. And He loves when we worship Him, for adoration is the foundation upon which all other prayer rests. Adoration finds the Christian entering into peace and comfort that can be found nowhere else but in Him. It is the cry of the restless heart finding His arms. You might say, but others think it is unnecessary to pray, to call on God for anything. We need not pray because God already knows what's going to take place even before it happens, and it would be a waste of His time and ours to pray about something. About anything. Well, that's just preposterous! Another trick of the evil one. Funny the things he wants you to accept as fact. So much scripture teaches us that we are to pray. Why, the disciples even asked the Lord Jesus to teach them to pray. Let's remove, once an

Let us therefore come boldly into the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16 In chapter six of Isaiah, the prophet has seen the Lord, high and lifted up. He has watched as the seraphim (the expression of God's holiness) serve Him upon His Throne. He has heard them cry, "Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord of Hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory."

Surely not Isaiah ... who will prophesy of Israel's exile to and the return from Babylon. Surely not Isaiah ...  who will write concerning David's Righteous Branch

I applied my ear to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness. Eccl. 7:25 Surely you have noticed the onslaught of an old and argumentative system of theology, that is all of a sudden, well maybe over the last few years, "new again," restless ones joining the debate and jumping track to participate in the polemics. I do not want to be numbered with this group, a writer who constantly debates in opposition to others concerning contrived theological systems. There is far too much precious life-sustaining material in the Scriptures which we will never exhaust. No, not before Jesus returns to take us Home. I recently researched and wrote a thesis on such an argument for a client. I don't recommend this for the faint of heart, because it drains you of so much spiritual talent you could be using on something much more productive for the cause of Christ. A long time ago, I learned
