Checking into God's Presence... "And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob was fled. And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days' journey; and they overtook him in the mount Gilead. And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said unto him, Take heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.  Then Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mount: and Laban with his brethren pitched in the mount of Gilead. And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done, that thou hast stolen away unawares to me, and carried away my daughters, as captives taken with the sword? Wherefore didst thou flee away secretly, and steal away from me; and didst not tell me, that I might have sent thee away with mirth, and with songs, with tabret, and with harp? And hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? Thou hast now done foolishly in so doing. It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt: but the God of your father spake unto me yester night, saying, Take thou heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad." Genesis 31: 22-29 Do you see God as your strength in times of trouble? Laban intended to allow Jacob to go away empty-handed after serving him. Still, God appeared unto Laban to correct this wrongdoing- “And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said unto him, Take heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad." We pray unto You, Lord, to cause the plans and the assignment of the enemies to work in our favour. Help to satisfy our needs in times of trouble by removing pain, turbulence, calamities, unemployment, redundancies, and sickness of all kinds. With Your power, remove from our lives untimely death, suppression, oppression, hatred of all sorts and any form of sorrow. Moses was classified as nobody until Thou chose to empower him, and because he stammered, disbelief was on all faces. You used Moses for the sake of Your gracefulness and declared Your Might so that those who dithered, complained and dishonoured Your purpose in him became filled with awe, and You brought to nought their repulsions. As unto Moses and Jacob, we plead through Your Holy Name to make good people's perception about us today. Wash away our filth and cloth us with Your garments of honour. Pitch our tents within Your comfort zones and make us fruitful in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen  Http://testimony-times.blogspot.co.uk Just Checking into His Presence...
