Morning Direction From Scripture 10-22-17
Surrounded by unnumbered thousands of chariots,
the Lord came from Mount Sinai into his sanctuary.
18 When you ascended to the heights,
you led a crowd of captives.
You received gifts from the people,
even from those who rebelled against you.
Now the Lord God will live among us there. Psalm 68:17,18

Mid Afternoon Meditation 10-21-17
The mountains of Bashan are majestic,
with many peaks stretching high into the sky.
16 Why do you look with envy, O rugged mountains,
at Mount Zion, where God has chosen to live,
where the Lord himself will live forever?
The mountain in the background is one of the mountains of Bashan.
By comparison Zion is a hill. Why do you think the mountains of Bashan envy Zion? What is the spiritual application?

Morning Direction From Scripture 10-21-17
The Lord gives the word,
and a great army brings the good news.
12 Enemy kings and their armies flee,
while the women of Israel divide the plunder.
13 Even those who lived among the sheepfolds found treasures—
doves with wings of silver
and feathers of gold.
14 The Almighty scattered the enemy kings
like a blowing snowstorm on Mount Zalmon. Psalm 68:11-14
What must it be like to be scattered like a blowing snowstorm? Have you ever felt like that?
