In March at the 10th anniversary of the War in Iraq, I opened my Bible at random and read: “Now Satan stood up against Israel and moved David. . . “ As the Iraq War was on my mind, it translated, “Now Satan stood up against the United States and moved our President and political leaders to make war in Iraq.”

Regarding War in Syria and the power of music
Dear Mr. President,
.
The music concert at the Whitehouse last night was wonderful—music, the
language of the emotions transcends the worlds.
Biblically, we are told over 500 times to “Praise the Lord” and 400 times to “Fear not.” Praise paralyzes the warlords in the spirit world.
My prayers are with you. Please do not be pressured into war with Syria—as you know, there are no good options—just
humanitarian aid. Let’s “beat our swords
into plowshares.”
Remember
the recent example of Antoinette, who went by the Spirit in facing the man with
the gun. “We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
power of darkness and spiritual wickedness in high places. . .For the weapons
of our warfare are mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.”Security
is in the Secret Place. God’s 911 #:
Psalm 91:1
I
love this statement from, The Gifts of
the Spirit, by Harold Horton:
Who made
babies seers and infants holy prophets? (Psalm 8)
It was the
beginning of the Arab spring/Apocalypse ( Feb.10, 2011 ). My grandson, Noah,
two, was with me at the church Ladies’ Tea, sitting on my lap putting
blueberries in his mouth. The ladies were
talking about Egypt--what just had happened. In the midst of the blueberries, Noah
announced, “There was a BIG STORM and
Jesus made it stop.”
The ladies stopped mid-sentence and stared at
Noah. What did this toddler say? And Noah, unaware that he had just given the
answer to everything, kept putting blueberries in his mouth.
Mr.
President, I’m grateful for your faith. (I heard your testimony on Religion and Ethics PBS. http://www.pbs.org/wnet/religionandethics/2008/10/10/2008-campaign-what-the-candidates-believe/885/
I heard your Easter Breakfast message.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9o-LtvTqBw ) Remember the Master said, “Without Me, you can do nothing.” You work so hard. Your speeches are excellent. I’m grateful for your wisdom and calmness in the midst of such distortion and jumping to judgment. God is the only answer to unbind and “Nothing is too hard for Him.” Now, more than speeches, is the time to sit in the Secret Place at the feet of the Prince of Peace. As little Noah said, Jesus is the One who says Peace be still to BIG STORMS. He will give you a word. “Nothing is too hard for God”—not Egypt—not Syria.

Born
in 1939, I have 3 children and 8 grandchildren.
I sit in the quiet and God gives
wisdom. I wish I could be a counselor
for you. “Nothing is impossible with
God.” “The heart of the king is in the
hand of the Lord. He turneth it whithersoever He will.”
“Sit still and see the salvation of the
Lord.”

March at the 10th anniversary of the War in Iraq, I opened my Bible

Iraq.”
I
was working on this letter when last night’s concert came on and you spoke of
the power of music. I was ready to copy down these powerful examples of
victorious battles of which music plays a part: Psalm 100; II Chronicles 20;
Acts 16:20-24; Nehemiah 6; I Samuel
16:23;Judges 6-8; Luke 2: 13, 14.
Blessings,
love and prayers,
