1 Samuel 7:5 — 6, “Then Samuel said, “Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray to the LORD on your behalf.” When they had gathered at Mizpah, they drew water and poured it out before the LORD. On that day they fasted, and there they confessed, “We have sinned against the LORD.” And Samuel judged the Israelites at Mizpah.” Pouring water on the ground is an act of repentance, with Samuel’s prayer and judgement this event becomes an act of worship as well.
Thought for Today: Wednesday November 26
I have learned that serving Adonai requires prayer, and often means tears. Power for life for ministry, does not come from our own ability; it comes from YHVH. We need a fresh daily anointing from the Holy Spirit, and that comes from the time we spend with YHVH in His Word and in Prayer. “Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from YHVH” {1 John 4:7}
