August 29
Running with Jesus  

Acts 5:39 But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.

     After the disciples were taken to court and accused the counsel of killing Jesus, the Messiah, the court was pricked in their heart and was ready to kill them. A man named Theudas rose up and told them to not kill them. He suggest let it go and like water will dilute down and wash out in time but, if it was of God they would be fighting Him. However, God was in it and Christianity only grew larger and larger. Christianity is around the world today and the world is fighting God!  What is really sad is that America, which was founded on the Word of God, is fighting the One Who took her in and provided so much for her. America is rebelling against her own Father. Makes me so sad to hear a high school is demanding the band can't play a Christian song. We never would have thought in our lifetime she would change so much.
     We must continue to pray for our nation and fight with God and not against our Heavenly Father!
 

Father, remove any rebellious spirit we might be running with today! We do not want to fight You. It is our desire to be on Your team. Train and lead us to run Your way and never fight against You! Show us how to live a Godly life in this dark world so our light might shine in the darkness. Help us lead others to You.
 

Murmuring, Tomorrow!
