We are talking about the core of the opposition that has faced those who are committed to real praise and worship, and where that opposition and persecution began. When you understand Satan’s original place in Heaven as Lucifer, the Archangel who surrounded the Throne with praise and worship, and how he was cast out of Heaven after his arrogance and rebellion and effort to overthrow the Throne of God, then you begin to understand why he so hates those who have replaced him with their love, their praise and their worship.

It probably seems to some as though we have really deviated from the topic of David’s Tabernacle and the picture of unabated praise and worship, but I assure you, we have not! The relationship that David experienced with the Lord was an intimate one. It is a strange thing that during all of his years as King of Israel, he wound up marrying so many women in his desire to match the relationship he had with the Lord. Not until he married Bathsheba (under highly controversial and questionable circumstances) did he finally feel like he had a wife in this life with whom he could be One!

I’m going to run extra long today in order to complete this part of the discussion, so bear with me.   Let’s see if we can summarize this picture of the keys little more specifically.   1. Everything is rooted and grounded in the fact that Jesus is the Anointed One, the Son of the Living God. That is His onoma.

Throughout the years, it has been my honor and great delight to have participated in some really spectacular healing miracles. Have to say it has been an adventure and a lot of fun to see Holy Spirit tear down walls of doubt, unbelief and fear.

Back in the early 1950’s, my parents were traveling across the nation and sharing in many churches the vision for building a church in Barrow, Alaska. My brother and I needed to continue in our schooling so we were placed with friends in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

Let’s continue today with last week’s discussion.   One of the things both Della and I have learned throughout the years is to check with the Lord before we accede to someone’s desire to pray for them or for some particular situation. Many times the request will be OK, but the timing is off and Holy Spirit says, “Wait.”

Good Morning, all you early birds! Most of you know, I think, that these Coffee Breaks come out in the wee hours of the morning, and some folks even write me asking if I’m up at 2:30 in the morning sending them out. Nope. Rich Hoffman is our webmaster and he gets them published very late Thursday night or very early Friday morning.

We’ve come to a place in this discussion on the Paths of Righteousness that I believe we can wrap up today before moving on to talk about the next step in this adventure — that step being, “Yea, though I walk through the Valley of Death.” I’m going to run long today, so bear with me.

Happy New Year, Everyone! I will say what I’ve said before: for those of you who are walking in union with the Lord – and I don’t mean simply confessing Jesus Christ as Savior – real intimacy with Jesus Christ, that is, expect this coming year to easily be the most productive year you’ve ever known.

OK, so I didn’t quite finish up on this topic like I expected to last week. Thought I was going to move on back into the Psalm 23 Adventure today, but woke up a couple of nights ago realizing that there was just a bit more to share on this, so … for those of you looking forward to getting back into Psalm 23 today, bear with me.
