And so it was, at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, "Cry aloud, for he is a god; either he is meditating, or he is busy, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened."
I will lift my eyes to the hills--from whence comes my help? My help comes from You LORD, who made heaven and earth. Even though my fleshly body needs sleep, I rest knowing You are awake and alert keeping watch over me. You never sleep nor slumber, my ever-present help, thank You LORD. You preserve me from evil as You are never off duty. How much better to hear a rebuke of the wise, than for one to hear the song of fools. Father, grant me boldness to speak the truth, to proclaim Jesus is alive! You have taught us as Your beloved to not believe every spirit, but to test the spirits to see whether they are from You, for there are many false claims in the world. But You Jesus have said You are the way the truth and the life. No one can come to the Father except through You, thank You for making a way so I may enter into the courts with thanksgiving and praise. May I regard Your warning that many false christ and false prophets will perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead many astray, if possible, even the elect. So, I look to You Lord the author, finisher, perfecter of my faith saying I desire to have no other gods before You Almighty God. May my mind be sharp and my heart sincere so I may pay attention to make no mention of the names of other gods, nor let it not be heard for my lips. May praises to You be a sweet-smelling aroma that reaches the heaven and all glory and honor be given to You alone. Amen.
