If you are visiting my blog for the first time from Monday’s (September 13th) Encouragement for Today devotion, Sanctifying Discipline, welcome!! If you stopped by as one of my long-time bloggy friends, I am so thankful you are here.
Please know I have prayed for you.
What do I mean?
Well, let me explain. I have been counting the days for this post because I knew I would be announcing our next on-line Bible Study today. I have prayed since the end of our last study for God to draw women who are seeking to know Him more but just can’t seem to find the time to do it.
Guess what? Since you are reading these words, you are one of those women, sweet friend. I have been praying for you!!
If God brought you here today, please prayerfully consider joining us for our next on-line Bible study, The Heart of a Mighty Warrior: A Study of the Life of David beginning Monday, September 20th. Below is a short 5 minute video sharing a bit about my devotion and introducing the new study.
I intentionally chose my Encouragement for Today devotion, Sanctifying Discipline, to coincide with the announcement of the new study because in our David study we will watch God teach David some very difficult lessons through His sanctifying discipline.
In the last on-line study, we had over 1800 women studying the book of Ephesians!! Can you believe that? Women from nearly every state in the Union and from across the globe.
For this study, we will embark on an amazing journey through the life of one of God’s most beloved servants, King David….known by so many as “the man after God’s own heart.” We will spend six weeks with David, from the time God called him from the sheepfold to his last days as King of Israel. Through his life, God will teach us powerful life-changing truths.
Each Monday, I will post a video blog like the one above, but it will be about 10 minutes. I will post homework questions and invite you to share the answers to your questions and any other thoughts you have in the comments. You can visit our Ephesians Study to see more of how the study works.
My prayer for us is that as David’s story unfolds, our hearts would change and become more like His. I pray that we would leave different women because of the time we have spent with Him in His Word.
In our last study, I claimed God’s promise found in Isaiah 55:11:
So is my Word that goes out from My mouth:
It will not return to Me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
I claim this promise again for us today!!
If you want to join us, please leave your first name and e-mail address. I am compiling a list for my records so that I can pray for you by name and contact you via e-mail if necessary. If you have difficulty leaving a comment, please feel free to e-mail me at deuteronomysix@aol.com and leave your contact information.

God's timing is perfect. Was just this morning thinking of studying the life of David after the Father brought a particular Psalm to my attention. Then I read Proverb's 31 devotional and there was the link to this study on David!
Count me in.

Can not wait for your study to start, Wendy. Since the end of the Eph. study, I have felt a void in my life. My good friend will be joining me this time. Can't wait for Monday!

God knew that I needed this exact devo today about sanctifying discipline. Just last evening I had shared w/some friends what had happened in my home and it was very similar to your situation w/your son. This morning, when I checked my e-mail, one of my dear sisters in Christ sent this to me. Perfect timing! Thank you for your transparency. Please sign me up on the study of David. jreydell@yahoo.com

You did such a beautiful job here and in your devotion as you gave us all a very personal peek into your heart, into what God is doing in you and in your marriage. You were spot on with where God wants our hearts to be with Him and our husbands. As a mom of two boys, I am in so much agreement with what you shared and have seen the fruit of trusting my husband's shepherd leader's heart with our sons. It's going to be so interesting to see how things unfold with the princess, Aster. Smiles and hugs,

Hi Becki,
Great to hear from you. Thank you for stopping by Living Truth. I want to be sure that you know the current study is the Hebrews study that begins October 24th. But you are welcome and able to do any of the past studies, like the David study, at your own pace at any time. Just wanted to clarify that the David study is not the current study.
I would like to sign up for your new series. Helen@tisdalehelen60@yahoo.com
