Praying for Paris...and Us...and You

The past few weeks in my English 12 classes, we have been asking questions in preparation for each selecting an Inquiry Project.  One question we  have asked regarding ISIS is...Why is violence a necessity to such groups?

Then, they attack Paris.  Such violence.

Our models are in the Bible, back to where we must go as a nation, for we have drifted...much too far from that Biblical shore, for as I have been reading the Bible in a chronological order, I have read of much violence, and, without fail, when God was sought, He intervened.

“The Lord is a man of war; the Lord is His name … Your Right Hand, O Lord, has become glorious in power; Your right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces. And in the greatness of Your excellence you have overthrown those who rose against You; You sent forth Your wrath which consumed them like stubble.” (Exodus 15:3,6)

Our model is the the Bible...may we pray that we don't just drift to that shore but that we rush with the tide of deliverance, knowing He is pushing those undercurrents?

Yes, let's pray....
