Psalm 18

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 

 

1 I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.

 

(The Word is "The Lord" ... the Word, The Lord, is my strength!)

 

The Word causes us to be able to walk on water with Jesus so long as we don't remove our eyes from The Word and look at the circumstances.

 

Faith is hearing that Word that God speaks from heaven and believing that truth and doing that truth and to continue in HIS Word which he has spoken to us.

 

Psalm 18

 

2 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

 

3 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.

 

4 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid.

 

5 The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me.

 

6 In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: He heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears.

 

7 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.

 

8 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.

 

9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.

 

10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.

 

11 He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

 

12 At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed, hail stones and coals of fire.

 

13 The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire.

 

14 Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them.

 

15 Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.

 

16 He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.

 

17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.

 

18 They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay.

 

19 He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.

Church Meeting

in Colorado Springs, Colorado,

July 22-26, 2024

 

Paul tells us what to do when we gather in the church.  We will try to do that at this meeting.

 

I Corinthians 14:26   How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.

 

Reserve these dates on your calendars and meet us at Colorado Springs.  I'll give you the details later.  Just mark these days and pray about coming here and let God lead you.

 

We have 5 meeting places reserved and they are free to us.

 

We will be meeting the first day at the Downtown Public Library.  We will plan to cater food at approximately 3 pm, snacks to tide you over.  After the meeting we will have a picnic together at Seven Falls park at the base of the Rocky Mountains.  You will bring your own food and we will visit there. It is so beautiful in Colorado Springs.  Summer temperature averages approximately low 80's in the afternoon.

 

I've lived here for 5 years and we have air conditioning and have only turned it on for 30 minutes one day because we wanted to see if it would still run.  We just open our windows in the summer and are very comfortable!  I moved here from Texas and couldn't believe it.  It wasn't like that in Texas.

 

There are many beautiful places here.  So we can meet after meetings at various places:  Seven Falls, Pikes Peak or behind Pikes Peak at Woodland Parks,  Garden of the Gods, Fox Run Regional Park in the very tall ponderosa Pines.

 

But mostly it's the fact that there will be others who are truly born again and have the spirit of God and live by that Holy Spirit for you to be around!  That is not easy to find!

 

So if you have the Holy Spirit and get to attend this meeting, you have a real treat ahead of you.  I'm praying for God to bring to this meeting those HE wants to attend.  We want to share God through that which God would bring forth from HIS people by HIS Spirit.
