But let all who take refuge in you rejoice;
let them sing joyful praises forever.
Spread your protection over them,
that all who love your name may be filled with joy. Psalm 5:11
What is the connection between protection and joy?

Morning Direction From Scripture 5-31-16
My enemies cannot speak a truthful word.
Their deepest desire is to destroy others.
Their talk is foul, like the stench from an open grave.
Their tongues are filled with flattery.[a]
10 O God, declare them guilty.
Let them be caught in their own traps.
Drive them away because of their many sins,
for they have rebelled against you. Psalm 5: 9-10
In light of your meditation from last night how does God want you to pray for your enemies and for yourself?

Ferocious Pt. 10
In answer to some of the questions I posed in our recent meditations on I Cor. 13 I am sharing this series I wrote a few years ago. I know I still have some of you dangling on the line regarding our study through the book of Romans (THE ROAD THROUGH ROMANS). I assure you we will get back to that in a bit. Right now I have to carry through with this series for some reason. Maybe that reason is you. If so share a thought or two about that.

O God, you take no pleasure in wickedness;
