Scripture Memory 2010 - Oct. 15

My phone rang this morning at 5:05am.....I answered in my sleepy state, just having gotten out of bed and turned on the coffee, and on the other end I heard loud banging and the word "Fire"...and the line went dead. I noticed the number belonged to a very close and longtime friend of my son.

Alarmed and now fully awake, I said a quick prayer, Lord what should I do? I thought I would call 911 - but they had recently moved, and I didn't know their street address. I quickly went back through the caller I.D. to get their number and called them back...line busy. O LORD, what can I do to help? PRAY...and I did, and this is the verse I prayed over Cody and his family:

Isa. 43:2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and when you pass through the rivers they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.

We talked with Alex after we all arrived home this evening to see if he had heard from Cody, and he had not, so I told him what happened. He was very worried, but needed to go to work. He asked if we would drive out to see if we could find out any information. Alex knew the way, but not the street names. Amazingly we drove straight there.

There had been a fire alright, and everything inside the house was lost. I jumped out of the car and went to the house across the way, and knocked..a man answered, it was Cody's uncle. He explained what happened, and PRAISE the LORD...NO ONE was hurt!!

My man is still stunned....
I am in Awe once more of OUR Sheild and Protector, our Savior and Mighty God - to Him be the Glory and Honor and Praise forever and ever!! Thank you Jesus for hearing our prayers!
