…they cried out to God in the battle, and he granted their urgent plea because they trusted in him.<\/em> (1 Ch 5:20)<\/p>\n

The above verse is written about trained soldiers who believed that they could only win the battle by prayer! They had skill and weapons to fight, but they realized that victory comes only from God. May we also learn this important lesson.<\/p>\n

Previously we reported being under spiritual attack, and so the attacks continue. Despite some relief, new challenges have appeared, including a terminal cancer diagnosis given to a woman in our church who we fully expected would be with us for another 20 years or so. She has no pain or other symptoms that say something is wrong. However, palliative chemotherapy is giving her unpleasant side-effects. God may yet heal her and so we pray. We also pray that no matter what, she and her husband will be able to run their race with joy until the day they meet Jesus.<\/p>\n

We are burdened for God’s best for our church, our community, our marriage, our colleagues, and our children and their families. These are ongoing needs for which we are grateful to have your ongoing prayer support.<\/p>\n
