Over the past 4000 years, no less than 34 bloody conflicts have occurred either at Megiddo or in the rich fertile fields of the Jezreel Valley below. Individuals like Joshua, Solomon, Deborah, Josiah, Nebuchadnezzar, and even the 18th-century Napoleon Bonaparte all saw this area as an important military objective. How do those battles relate to the battle of Armageddon mentioned in Revelation? Megiddo has a storied past with an important message for our present age.

We know the benefits of prayer, the necessity of prayer, and the privilege of prayer. So why do we sometimes struggle in this area of our spiritual lives? We have to identify our prayer barriers and then determine ways that we can break down those walls. Next, we need to develop a prayer strategy. This lesson revolves around practical ways to improve our prayer lives, including how to pray, when to pray, and what to pray. Becoming a fervently praying Christian is powerful and life-changing!

I think we need to get church leaders, nationwide, to begin emphasizing grooming the next generation of male spiritual leaders now. From my perspective, as a brotherhood, we need immediate major improvement in this area. I'm constantly searching for young Christian men to groom.

Not only does a daily Proverbs chapter help the family increase in wisdom, but it also helps younger children become better readers.

As the church looks toward the future, I see this as a matter requiring immediate attention. I think we need to get church leaders, nationwide, to begin emphasizing grooming the next generation of male spiritual leaders now. From my perspective, as a brotherhood, we need immediate major improvement in this area. I'm constantly searching for young Christian men to groom. The ones who arrive on campus are frequently absent, disinterested, or lacking in confidence to lead.

Bobby said, ""My wife and I would have driven hundreds of miles if we thought someone could lighten the pain we felt during that time.

If I could possibly help lighten the pain that comes with losing a child to just one person, I would feel that it all would be worth while."
