  Today, President Donald Trump will speak at a midterm election rally at Ocean Center in Daytona Beach, Florida.

  

  The State Department issued a joint statement from the United States, South Korea, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Great Britain, and the European Union on implementing sanctions against the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK, aka North Korea) to disrupt revenue streams supporting the development of nuclear weapons.

• Triple-Strength

  A threefold cord is not quickly broken. – Ecclesiastes 4:12 

  ---

  God made three such a special and interesting number! This number has many important points of reference. It is the basis of everything from the triangle to the three points defining a plane. It is the first odd prime number in math. Your home, Earth, is the third planet from the Sun. You are also a combination of three: body, mind, and spirit. Plus, time exists in three places: past, present, and future. The significance of three permeates the entire universe. 

  Solomon, the author of Ecclesiastes, references a cord of three strands as a picture of unity. Like the number three, his analogy spurs thought-provoking meditation. However, in context, he was contrasting the value of partnership in an attack with the vulnerability of someone who is alone.  

  Solomon was tremendously blessed in earthly life. Unfortunately, he allowed those blessings to draw him away from the God of his father, David, until he ignored the Law of Moses and drifted into pagan worship. He ultimately defined his life as futility and foolishness. Yet, despite his disappointment, he acknowledged that three are better than one.

  The Lord is honored when people and nations adhere to Him and His principles as they seek to live in peace. Pray for the officials of the United States as they consider alliances and agreements, seeking God in those decisions and basing their commitments on His standards. Ask the Lord to work out His will and purposes in this nation as voters cast their midterm ballots. Pray for America’s church leaders to be wise in their associations. 

  Today’s Verse: Ecclesiastes 4:12

  And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
