Sometimes we begin our journey under clear skies and dry roads, only to be met unexpectedly by a looming grey mass that quickly brings wind, rain, and poor visibility. It’s not much fun! Although driving through a storm can seem never-ending, keep pushing forward. The clouds will eventually clear, and the sun will shine again as you approach your destination!
I speak of course, of covenant prayer! Taking on a fresh commitment to seek the Lord is often invigorating!
Then the troubles come and the answers we expect do not.
How can we overcome these times of trouble and disillusionment?
In this final episode of our summer series, I will be providing encouragement for such moments!

In which Jesus came alongside and shared His own thoughts on Covenant prayer!
Summer is full of activities and family events. My little grandgirl recently had heart surgery and the Lord Graciously brought her through with flying colors.
I completed my mission of heading up the City Fest Kids tent with the help of many tireless volunteers. We need each other, don’t we?

In this summer series, we will be discussing Covenant Prayer. That is when we feel called by God to seek Him in a certain way, ,for a certain period of time, in order to gain hold of a promise or an answer to a prayer. Being steadfast and immovable in such a call to prayer can be incredibly powerful, but can also stir up spiritual warfare! Begin now by laying the foundation of such prayer.

Have you been praying and praying, maybe briefly seeing things for which you are praying beginning to change, before sliding back to where they began?
No one can force God’s hand, but throughout scripture, we see Jesus moved to action by a certain characteristic. Can you think of what that is?
Faith.
Most of the time, this faith was demonstrated by the way people persevered, calling on Jesus despite obstacles, persevering against the odds. We can grow in, and demonstrate, that same faith when we battle through the difficulties of life and persevere in prayer.
In this episode of Storming the Gates, we will be pressing Pause on the book of Jeremiah to uncover a meaningful way to pray.

Raise your hand if you love coffee! I know I do!
That is why my son took me on a tour of a coffee processing plant when I was in El Salvador recently. It was fascinating to learn the many ways coffee beans are chosen for specific flavors and quality. If the coffee bean cherry "floats" it means it is undeveloped, immature, or has been attacked by disease or insects. It could mean the shell is completely hollow. Yikes!
God is looking to brew a good cup of coffee with us!
In Jeremiah chapter 6, we will explore how we can be sure we will sink when we are tested in the waters of life.
All that and more on this episode of Storming the Gates!

I was shocked to learn of recent events concerning IHOPKC founder, Mike Bickle, and the recent revelations about one of my favorite worship leaders, Misty Edwards, as well. Maybe someone you have loved and followed has been found to be immoral or unethical. We can't help but respond with anger and grief. At the same time, what we consider righteous indignation can quickly become self-righteous judgment. Chapter five of Jeremiah will help us understand how to respond when the Lord has allowed exposure to occur. Praying through Chapter five of Jeremiah spoke to my wounded heart. May it do the same for you!

Are you good enough for heaven?
In Jeremiah chapter four, God is shaking the people out of a numbing belief that unless we are murderers or something, we're all good people, and don't have to change anything.
Is that true?
If not, then how do we get to heaven?

My husband did not want to believe he had diabetes, despite the obvious symptoms.
But when his heart freaked out, sending us to the hospital for a heart attack, everything changed.
He accepted the diagnosis and the doctor's recommendations with humility. We changed our lifestyle completely. He has lost 95 lbs and is not only way more active but happier and less moody. I adore my husband, and I can now look forward to many more years with him!
We may not want to believe we have a problem, but only in accepting the truth about what ails us will we ever be ready to accept the cure.
In this episode, we will look at Jeremiah 3, where God, who has previously outlined the sickness in Jeremiah chapter 2, now presents the cure.
It's a life changer.
In a good way!

The Nonchalant Bride
Jeremiah 2
Can you remember a time you were “in love?”
When I first met my husband, he was quite enamored of me! He would get off work after a long midnight shift and drive the two and a half hours to my house just to be with me for a few hours! He sent me flowers at work, he happily loaned me his fancy car, he paid for a vacation for the kids and I.
Love does that to a person, doesn’t it?
But what happens when that “First Love” feeling begins to dissipate like the morning dew?
In this episode, we see God Himself reminiscing about his bride's unabandoned and unashamed love. But something has changed.
And that bride could be you.
