Teach me your ways, O LORD,
that I may live according to your truth!
Grant me purity of heart,
so that I may honor you.
Teach me your ways, O LORD,
that I may live according to your truth!
Grant me purity of heart,
so that I may honor you.
Turn us again to yourself, O God.
Make your face shine down upon us.
Only then will we be saved.
Turn us again to yourself, O God of Heaven’s Armies.
Make your face shine down upon us.
Only then will we be saved.
Turn us again to yourself, O LORD God of Heaven’s Armies.
Make your face shine down upon us.
Only then will we be saved.
(Carolina Wren)
So one night the king of Aram
sent a great army with many chariots and horses
to surround the city.
When the servant of the man of God
got up early the morning and went outside,
there were troops, horses, and chariots everywhere.
“Oh, sir, what will we do now?”
the young man cried to Elisha.
“Don’t be afraid!” Elisha told him.
“For there are more on our side than on theirs!”
then Elisha prayed,
“O LORD, open his eyes and let him see!”
the LORD opened the young man’s eyes,
and when he looked up,
he saw that the hillside around Elisha
was filled with horses and chariots of fire.
…”Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
They replied,
“Believe in the Lord Jesus
and you will be saved…
Many times he held back his anger
and did not unleash his fury!
For he remembered that they were merely mortal,
gone like a breath of wind that never returns.
Don’t worry about anything;
instead, pray about everything.
Tell God what you need,
and thank him for all he has done.
Then you will experience God’s peace,
which exceeds anything we can understand.
His peace will guard your hearts and minds
as you live in Christ Jesus.
…they did not believe God
or trust him to care for them.
But he commanded the skies to open;
he opened the doors of heaven.
He rained down manna for them to eat;
he gave them bread from heaven.
They ate the food of angels!
