Then I slept with my wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to a son. And the Lord said, “Call him Maher-shalal-hash-baz. For before this child is old enough to say ‘Papa’ or ‘Mama,’ the king of Assyria will carry away both the abundance of Damascus and the riches of Samaria.”
Isaiah 8:3-4 NLT

- Today’s Most Important Challenge is … focusing on empowering others versus forcing my desired result
Immanuel Approach Memo
I am …
Sitting in an easy chair
Holding a old-fashioned TV remote
I turn on the TV
It is on whatever channel someone was watching
It is a broadcast of a Billy Graham crusade
I look for Jesus
He is standing right behind Billy
Whispering in his ear
Usually Billy hears and obeys him
Sometimes he does not
Jesus looks up at me
Makes eye contact
And winks
Reflection
I feel…
- humbled
- reassured
- resolved
- The Fear of the Lord
