Siesta Scripture Memory Team: Verse 16
Hey, my dear Scripture memory partners! It is very early in the morning and I am so happy to be all the way up in Fargo, North Dakota at a Living Proof Live. God brought us over 4300 people to this small city last night. Listen to this: over 300 of them were walk ups! More than we've ever had before. A few hundred of them just decided yesterday to come to the Fargodome and simply walked right up to the door and bought a ticket. We were astounded. We feel absolutely sure that a number of these darling women have never been to an event of this kind before. We are tremendously blessed. Last night toward the latter part of the session we were hit by one of the craziest storms I can remember at a Living Proof Live and had to ask them to stay for 30 more minutes, SO to tell you that we had some praise and worship last night is an understatement. I am so happy that Scripture records several places in which God's voice sounded like thunder. We think there was a war in the heavenlies last night.
I need to have my face in my lesson for today so I don't get to tarry here. I just wanted to make sure you were taken care of and that your Scripture memory post was up for the 15th. My thoughts most recently have been on the many people - children and young adults most disturbingly - who are chronically ill. If God does not intervene, terminally ill. I have wept a number of times recently for people I've never met and also bawled in my pillow for several I love. Life can be so incredibly brutal. I am focusing this time in my memory work on God's great compassion and His care for all He has made.
Psalms 145:8-12 (NIV)
The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love. The Lord is good to all; He has compassion on all He has made. All You have made will praise You, O Lord; Your saints will extol You. They will tell of the glory of Your kingdom and speak of Your might,so that all men may know of Your mighty acts and the glorious splendor of Your kingdom.
If you have Travis's CD called "Found," you have a musical version of the psalm this portion is taken from. The song straight out of Psalm 145 is called "Forevermore" and if it doesn't lead you to the Throne, I need to come take your pulse.
I love you so much, Siestas. Let's hear your Scriptures! Because I'm in conference today then on two flights home, it make take a while to get in all your comments but , rest assured, they will finally make it on here! Amanda's going to try to get to a place with Internet and help out. (Amanda reminded me that this is the first time one of our memory days has fallen on a Saturday while I was in conference. God is an excellent event planner!)

Good morning, Beth. Thanks as always for the challenge. Praying for you in Fargo.
I have to tell you that on vacation a couple of weeks ago, I severely sprained my ankle on Day #2! So bummed because we had planned on doing alot of hiking in the mountains of East Tennessee that week and here I was all "laid up!" :)
But on Day #3, I went along with my family for their next hike. They hiked up to the tower at Clingman's Dome and I parked myself with my iPod, the Word and the most magnificent mountain view I had ever seen The Creator orchestrate. I have a picture that I'll post at my blog in case anyone wants to see where I spent my quiet time that day.
But as I sat there with dozens and dozens of people filing by me, taking pictures and heading up to the trail, my iPod shuffled on to this song by Travis and my hands had to go up in the air! Tears streamed down my face and I wrote in my journal that if I had to sprain my ankle and miss the rest of the week's hikes for that moment in time I would do it all again.
He really does send forth His Word and heals!
Blessings,
Dori

Bless you as you minister! I hope you enjoyed the midwest...always nice in the fall too.
Last weekend, I was at a Holy Spirit conference in the Twin Cities when a tornado came through. We were in the middle of good teaching. Sound teaching. Life changing teaching. And we had to be evacuated...to the inside classrooms. I understand what you mean when you wrote that you thought it was a war in the heavenlies. I thought the same thing last week. Gratefully after a 45 minute delay, and though it was 10pm at night teaching, worship and ministry continued.
Thanks for the meaningful scripture to memorize. God does do mighty acts and we are to tesify to all of them as well as to how he is working in our lives. Praise the Lord, for he is GOOOOOOD.
Psalms 145:8-12 (NIV)
The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love. The Lord is good to all; He has compassion on all He has made.

I have to tell you that I chose Eph. 6:10 (NIV), "Finally be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power." I looked it up in the Message, and really found a translation that spoke to my need this morning:
Ephesians 6:10 (The Message)
"A Fight to the Finish
(10-12)And that about wraps it up. God is strong, and he wants you strong. So take everything the Master has set out for you, well-made weapons of the best materials. And put them to use so you will be able to stand up to everything the Devil throws your way. This is no afternoon athletic contest that we'll walk away from and forget about in a couple of hours. This is for keeps, a life-or-death fight to the finish against the Devil and all his angels."
