Think on this thought first: If you only had two (2) weeks and two (2) days to live what changes would you make? My thoughts have been on my mother(my mother passed away on March 7, 2000) because two years ago that is all I would have had left to see her.

My only resource that I depend on is Inspired Written Word of Yahweh (God). I am not a pastor nor do I hold a clergy position but I have been appointed a gift for my journey/mission.

Let's journey back in time between 701 and 681 B.C. and visit Jerusalem to meet Prophet Isaiah. The Prophecy of Isaiah is one of world's greatest masterpieces. Isaiah will tell us that his name means "Salvation of Jehovah"

Isaiah 53:1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is arm of Lord revealed?

verse 3...He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

verse 4...Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

verse 5...He was wounded for our transgression, he was bruised for our iniquities: chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

verse 6...All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and Lord hath laid on him iniquity of us all.

Isaiah was greatest of Writing Prophets and he writes about God's judgment and salvation. Isaiah reminds people to be on Alert for future threats in northern kingdom and danger in south. During my review of biblical lessons that referenced "Isaiah" I could even see where it could be applied to me today for more detail study and I do recommend reading entire book of Isaiah for February through March.

Why Should I Pray? By Stanley T. Crawford

We should pray to God for at least two important reasons. First of all, God has instructed us to pray. Second for a purely selfish reason, prayer causes things to happen. Another way of looking at this is “prayer gets results, or cause and effect.”

Several of scriptures from bible exhort us to pray to God (I Thessalonians 5:16-18, James 1:5 – 8, James 5: 13 – 18, and Philippians 4:6 & 7). This is just a sampling of verses that encourage us to pray. Prayer provides a way for us to communicate with God. We can pray to God by using Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:8-13) or we can merely speak to God. God is constantly aware of what we do and what we say. He is omnipotent. Yet, we must exercise our faith by acknowledging God.
