Prayer for your 10+ men (Psalm 91) 
  • Dwell in the secret place of the Most High & abide under the shadow of the Almighty!
  • They will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” 
  • Not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day
  • No sickness will come near you
  • Trust God and Do not fear!
Prayer for yourself:
But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus.  (Ephesians 2:1-10)


Refuge:  (Strong's #4268 Machesh) 
A shelter, refuge, protection, fortress; a hope, a place of trust; a shelter from storm.  

One of the 4 words for Man in Hebrew is Ish (Strong's #376) "Man, husband, a male, an individual person.  Unlike the generic term "adam" which means "human,"  ISH portrays male-ness and so is logically paired with its feminine form, Ishah, "wife" or "woman."  (From my Spirit Filled Life Bible word definition.)  
"A MAN (Ish) will be as a hiding place from the wind, and a cover (shelter) from the tempest, as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land."  (Isaiah 32:2 NKJ)
As our men trust God and find refuge from Him, may they be strengthened to be all that God has created them to be as a man - Ish!  

AMEN!
