“There is no one like the
God of Jeshurun, who rides the heavens to help you, And in His excellency on
the clouds. The eternal God is your
refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms; He will thrust out the enemy
from before you, and will say, “Destroy!”
Deuteronomy 33:26-27
Father, I
thank you for all You did for all the participants at the Deeper Still retreat
last weekend. There is no one like You.
Lord, I thank you that you rode the heavens to help. Thank You that You are the refuge for the
participants and team members. Thank you
for thrusting out the enemy from before us and commanding every chain, every
bondage, and every dark place to be destroyed!!
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
I am still
elated by what happened at the October Deeper Still Retreat!!! This
verse talks about God riding on the clouds.
I think every team member is still riding on the clouds after all that
happened! Two beautiful young ladies met Jesus for the first time and were
SAVED!!! Woot! Woot!
The retreat location
is beautiful. It is at Eagle Rock in
Maryville, TN. From our view, the clouds
are actually below the mountaintops in some areas.
God gave me the verse above for the
retreat.
“There is no
one like the God of Jeshurun.”
I did a
little research on what “God of Jeshurun” meant as I have never heard this term
used before I read this verse.
“Jeshurun”
is a symbolic name for Israel (God’s children) describing her ideal
character. It is a tender and loving name
for the people of Israel.
God rode on
the clouds last weekend to reach down and touch His sons and daughters in a
real and personal way because He knows their ideal character. He is tender and loving and sees them as who
He created them to be. He provides a
refuge for them where He can reach in with His everlasting arms and grab hold
to protect them from any schemes of the enemy.
Then, He thrusts out the enemy from before them and commands His angelic
armies to DESTROY the chains, the darkness, the lies, and the strongholds that
have held them captive.
The verse
that follows sums it up beautifully:
“Then Israel shall dwell in safety,
the fountain of Jacob alone. In a land
of grain and new wine; His heavens shall also drop dew. Happy are you, O Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the
Lord. The shield of Your help and the
sword of your majesty! Your enemies shall submit to you, and you shall tread
down their high places.” Deuteronomy
33:28-29
Oh prayer warriors, I so wish you could
have been there with us to see it! Thank you for being with us in the
Spirit and praying. Your prayers paved the way for 2 girls to get saved,
the darkness to be held back and destroyed and for 19 lives to be forever
changed! These participants are now
dwelling in the safety of the Most High, in a land of blessing and
newness. Their springs are overflowing
with Living Water and fullness of joy!
THANK YOU!!!
Please continue to pray for these 19 who
were radically transformed and given new life and Deeper Still.
