Saturday August 2, 2014 “Protection of Ministers and Ministries Finances”

Nehemiah 13:10&11  “ I also realized that the portions for the Levites had not been given them; for each of the Levites and the singers who did the work had gone back to his field. So I contended with the rulers, and said, “Why is the house of God forsaken?” And I gathered them together and set them in their place.”
   Nehemiah understood that the rulers needed to be petitioned so that the Levites and singers be adequately provided for.
  In America we have tax codes and regulations that help ministers of the Gospel live on at times below average salaries. Many times, even in recent times “housing allowance” deductions and tax-exemption for churches have been challenged.
  Pray today that there be the protection of these provisions in America that helps ministers and ministries continue to do the Lord’s work the best they can because of tax regulations that enable more money to be used to help people in our land.
   Please pray for families of loved ones lost on the recent airline crashes and the one shot down in Ukraine. Pray that the situations be handled wisely by the world community, especially by our country.  Pray that truth be revealed concerning who was responsible.
    Also pray for the crisis in Israel concerning Gaza and Libya, Iraq, Syria, etc.  Pray for the protection of innocent lives and that the world community see the situation through the eyes of truth.  Finally, pray that the United States continue to support our strongest ally in that area of the world, Israel, for in doing so we will be blessed.  Gen 12:3
