Pray for Dave in Senegal: Leaving Tomorrow

By


I will be leaving at 3:00 AM for Senegal.

In addition to having all the posts for the Bible readings ready to go (I think they are all set up properly), I have set up a separate post to give anyone who is interested and willing to pray some information about the trip.

Of course, all of this information is pre-loaded. One thing I've learned on my Senegal trips is that things seldom go as we expect.

I have two prayers that I'd ask you to pray today, in preparation for the trip.

1. I am taking a whole bunch of equipment with me, especially a large solar battery. I am praying that TSA and the airlines won't be upset with me carry all this with me (my carry on back weighs 35 pounds!). I have several lithium ion batteries and you can't put those in your checked bags. I need that stuff with me in Senegal. Would you pray that this will get through?

2. We've been having a lot of problems around the Miller house. Plumbing issues. Car issues. Stuff that normally wouldn't be major but it is tremendously inconvenient when I am planning to leave the country. Would you pray that God would watch over my wife and my home while I am away?

Read today's readings and try to catch up when you have a chance. The goal is not to "accomplish a task" but to meet God in his word. Read the word.

"He Prayed for ME!" September 2 Readings: John 17

  Reading the Bible Chronologically in 2024 This year, instead of reading from Genesis to Revelation, we will read the Bible as the story flows, as it happened and was written. There are several plans out there and I have worked to combine them into a plan that lets the Bible tell its own story "as it happened."  Remember, the Bible is inspired, but not in the order the books appear in our Bibles.   The Old Testament is approximately 3/4 of the Bible, but we will give more emphasis to the New Testament, spending half the year in the Old Testament and half in the New.  Bible Readings :   John 17 Background:    John 17 is truly "The Lord's Prayer." This is the prayer that the Lord prayed the night before he died, pouring out his heart to the Father on behalf not only of his disciples but for all of us who would follow. Daily Devotional:   He Prayed for ME! The night before Jesus died, just before he agonized in the Gard...
