Come to Me all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take My yoke and learn from Me…and you will find rest for your souls. Matthew 11:28-29
Dear National and Local Friends,
We hear Him say, “Rest, Renew, Reset.” He’s long taught us—IF you come surrendering your burdens(unrepentant sin, doubt, worries, cares, grudges), surrendering control, surrendering undivided attention—HE will RENEW you by giving REST on the outside from the enemy and on the inside for your soul. He may presently have a few adjustments He wants you to RESET in your walk with Him daily/weekly moving into November. Join us. More importantly, join Him!
We’ll let you know how He’s working with us. For starters, we have reset our daily bible reading plan. You may be led to join us; no pressure, but ask Him. If He gives you peace and permission—go for it! We’ve placed 4 bookmarks in our Bibles. One each in Genesis, Psalms, Hosea, and Romans. Each day we read one chapter at each bookmark. When we finish Genesis, Hosea, and Romans we will move onto the next book. When we finish Psalms we will repeat Psalms. It’s good to have an undergirding Bible reading plan. You are free, of course, to depart from it as the Spirit leads. But if you want a deeper walk with Him where you increasingly hear His voice in your heart; where you are less seldom distracted by the cares of the world and never deceived by the enemy—let Him energize you in daily Bible reading. Let us know how He’s helping you rest, renew, reset. Begin where you are. He does!

Our new video Stay and Pray Plumbline for Israel @ https://youtu.be/mWJ4bagdGck Enjoy it, get in the scriptures we highlight, draw close to Him, share the video with others. Here’s the sub-heading description we’ve attached to the video: “Stand with the Lord who keeps His covenant with His people and His promise of a land–in the midst of all the noise. Dive into His heart in Genesis 12, 17, & 27; and Romans 9, 10, and 11. Recall and Rest in His loving promises and plan. Pray for Israel’s repentance from wickedness, protection from enemies, and coming to Jesus before He returns!” There’s too much fleshly noise concerning Israel right now in the Body of Christ. We must stand plumbline with the Lord according to His word in His love and by His Spirit—in our thinking, speaking, and intercession for Israel! Please pray protection over us and CRM, that this video spreads to call His people into plumb.
