We are the Lord's Witnesses

Isa. 43:10-13
"You are my witnesses," declares the LORD, "and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he.  Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me.

I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior.

I have revealed and saved and proclaimed - I, and not some foreign god among you.  You are my witnesses," declares the LORD, " that I am God.

Yes, and from ancient days I am he.
No one can deliver out of my hand. 
When I act, who can reverse it?"

Friends - Watchmen

Isa. 52:12
But you will not leave in haste or go in flight; for the LORD will go before you, the God of Israel will be your rear guard.

Prayers are absolutely needed. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done….ON EARTH as it is in Heaven!! Lord, let YOUR will be done in Marks life!

My Daughter Desiree was talking with us over the weekend, and mentioned the account of the friends taking their paralytic friend to Jesus and lowering him through the roof, so he was right in front of Jesus. When Jesus saw THEIR faith, he said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven”. Luke 5:17-20

It was the Faith of the friends, that got this man before Jesus, and then Jesus could heal him!

Last night, I read John 10:3 The watchmen open the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

Let us be those friends, the watchmen that open the gate for Jesus to come in. That Mark may hear His voice, and then Jesus can lead him out!!

In Jesus name,
Amen.
Thank you for storming heaven on Mark’s behalf.
Love,
Julie

By my Spirit says the LORD

Zech 4:6
So he said to me
"This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel".
Not by might, nor by power,
but by my Spirit, says the LORD Almighty

Rebellion 2-15-10

 I talked with Marybeth yesterday.  And to sum up our conversation Mark is in all out rebellion.  He is not co-operating with the counselors, and was ready to check himself out (Which he can do at any point).
They are also having problems with the counselors communicating with them.  They haven't done the things they say they do:  MRI's, brain scans, reviewing Mark's charts to "know" him, including Mark in the treatment plan, communicating progress or set backs, and the list goes on and on.  Larry was on his way to Dallas to see what was going on.

I will try and get an update today, but in the mean time I ask that you include the treatment center, and the counselors, and Marybeth & Larry in your prayers!  And thank you for your prayers are like incense rising to heaven and the lifting of your hands like the evening sacrifice!  A sweet, sweet aroma !  Ps. 141: 2

Ps 73:26
My flesh and my heart may fail,
BUT GOD is the strength of my heart and my portion forever!
