'OUR FATHER WHICH ART IN HEAVEN...' MATTHEW 6:9 KJV
When we pray to God Who is in heaven, we recognise:
His position. Daniel said, '...the Most High rules in the kingdom of men...' (Daniel 4:17 NKJV). That's God's answer to frightening headlines and fear-filled hearts. A late-night comedian recently quipped: 'Tsunamis, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and now the Avian Flue. Maybe this isn't just a good time to be trying to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance.' If God is not in control - who is? The President? The Prime Minister? Nice folks, no doubt well intentioned ((No arguments!!)), but not good enough if you enjoy the idea of sleeping peacefully in your bed at night. The Psalmist said, 'My help cometh from the Lord...' (Psalm 121:2 KJV). Think: if He's Lord over every circumstance, and if He's promised to help us when we call on Him, what do we have to worry about?
You say, 'What about terroism? The Middle East?' No problem. God had it all on the drawing board before a shot was fired. God moves men and nations like we move pawns in a chess game. Look at modern day Israel. God promised 3000 years ago: ' "I will bring back My exiled people Israel; they will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them...never again to be uprooted from the land I have given them,' says the Lord your God' (Amos 9:14-15 NIV). Still think God's not running the show? He's God, and He's in charge. And on more thing you need to know: 'At the name of Jesus, every knee should bow...and...every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father' (Phillipians 2:10-11 KJV)
Read: Psalm 33: 13-15; Isaiah 40:18-26

This is true. I feel that men run into so many problems because they are not protected by the blood.
"The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away..."
But, he doesn't do anything without a purpose, and we can ask him to change the course. He loves us well enough to. 3nodding
