Let's lift up Jeminah
for spiritual protection from negativity and the evil eye. "No weapon formed against you shall prosper." (Isa 54:17) Trust God's shield. "He will cover you with his feathers, under his wings you will find refuge." (Ps 91:4) Praying in Jesus' name! 
**Prayer Updates!** 
Let's lift up:
Hello everyone! Let's lift up these requests in Jesus' Name! 
**Prayer Warriors Needed!** Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perverseness: for they say, The LORD hath forsaken the earth, and the LORD seeth not.
—Ezekiel 9:9-10 (KJV)
Special Note: Please remember the verses for this year were selected based on the date corresponding to the reference — September 9 is 9/9 or Ezekiel 9:9. This sometimes brings us challenging messages, but after much prayer, we believe these are messages the Holy Spirit wants us to hear.
Ezekiel had prepared for thirty years to be a priest, yet when it was time for him to serve in God's temple in Jerusalem, the city was largely destroyed, and Ezekiel was in exile. God had promised the northern tribes of Israel and the southern tribe of Judah that they would suffer the consequences of their social injustice, rebellion against righteousness, and unwillingness to obey God. God is true to his promises, and he will restore his people, but not until they feel the consequences of their own hard hearts and evil choices. Beyond this time of justice, God will ransom his righteous remnant and bring it back to their land, and they will be his people. But we must remember that God does not ignore rebellion, sin, and evil. Nice religious slogans, going to religious places, and listening to nice religious songs did not spare them from suffering the consequences of their evil choices. Nor will they spare us today. However, God longs to save and bless so we can turn our hearts to him and receive the grace he so longs to give us. But, dear friend, this repentance means a heart change that leads us back to living for God!
In my times of darkest struggle or loftiest joy, dear LORD, please help me be found faithful to you and your will. Please help me be an example of genuine repentance, steadfast love, righteous character, and gracious compassion. In Jesus' name, I pray for revival, repentance, and restoration among your people, O LORD. Amen.
