Joshua 5:13-14.

When a believer asks God, "Are you for or against us?" he asks the wrong question. There should be no questioning of the Lord but an immediate declaration on the part of every believer: "I am for you, Lord, whether I enjoy what you are doing with me or not."

Joshua 5

13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?

14 And he said, Nay; but as captain of the host of the Lord am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my Lord unto his servant?

Lavone is doing very well,our Lord is a healer,I thank for your prayers,please keep her and our family in your prayers thank you

Psalm 78:4-7.

Christians have a responsibility to train up their children to fear the Lord. Public schools cannot do that for parents because public schools by law must mostly deny or ignore God.

Psalm 78

4 We will not hide them from their children, shewing to the generation to come the praises of the Lord, and his strength, and his wonderful works that he hath done.

5 For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children:

6 That the generation to come might know them, even the children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children:

7 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments:

Wonderfull

YES indeed ty, :D all to His Glory in Jesus name. I Hope it last for the rest of my life here on earth.

Thanks for the information i just seen about the daughter fue days ago and there is a progression to it starts with a certain women then to somebody has touch me to a daughter she went from a nobody to somebody to the daughter of God Almighty. God has been having me to look at this woman as pic of all mankind who has a blood disease (sin)from Adam and everyone is dieing the second from it spiritual death. Jairus daughter was dying pic of you and me and this woman before we heard of Jesus no physician or no amount of money can heal this blood issue. To me jesus is giving us a living parable here unless this blood issue is brought to him and he gives you a blood transfusion you will not be raised from the dead. She was healed Immediately when we ask Jesus to save us we are healed from Adam's inherited blood issue (sin) immediately and will be raised from the dead. Then he said to jairus daughter Damsel Arise. What do you think of this point of view ? I am still studying on it and would like your input on it i have only been studying the Bible about 4 years and I know thats not long when it comes to the work of God thanks and may God bless you and your family always

Thank you for those references & thoughts Jeanie. I understand the requirement in the Exodus account & when I read the Luke account ( Luke 2:25-35), I seem to see a different picture. I realize that you see Simeon as a priest of the Temple, presenting to God the child Jesus. Why I balk at this is because we're first told that Simeon was a devout man in Jerusalem. Then, by the Spirit, he was led to the Temple to see this Promised One. And here is the difficulty: Joseph & Mary brought the Child to the Temple, to follow the custom of the Law (i.e. consecration). But was Simeon the priest or was there another priest, already serving at the Temple to carry out this duty? When we read the rest of Simeon's action & words, it appears to me that they weren't one of consecration, but of praise to God for allowing him this blessing of seeing the Child. And when Jesus' parents marvelled at Simeon's prophecy, Simeon blessed them (i.e. the parents) & continued with a prophecy.

I just share the above so that you can see why I have doubts about Simeon's priestly position. He could well have been (as you say), but in my reading, the narrative causes me to doubt that & I just see him as a godly man looking for the Messiah, hoping to have a glimpse of him before he passes on.

Who are the Parents of Cain's wife?

Hi Brother Chris.

Hope things are well.

If you look at Exodus 13:2 and 11-16

This is call First Born Consecrated.

In Luke they went into a temple and Simon took the Child to presented him to God. So Simon must have been a priest. Only a priest can do offerings and presentions to God.

If you need more please let me know.

Happy to help. God bless my friend.

My question is part are we at now in Revelations unfolding to the resurrection and the end of the world?

Sorry I forgot your other questions.

Catholics and other Christians as well as the Jewish religion celebrates PASSOVER.

Do we need to celebrate it for salvation? No. It is to remind us of the power and love of God for All his children.

Hi Sarah

Yes there are others who do practice Passover.

Passover celebrates the time God help the Israelites escape from Egypt.

Passover was the result of the last plague God sent on the people..

God told Moses to tell the people to spread Lamb's blood over the doorways of their houses. Death was sent to kill the first born in the area but death had to PASSOVER the doors with blood on it. Many Egyptians died and that is why Pharaoh let the Israelites leave.

Hope this helps.

Let me know if you need more.

God bless my friend.

....continued

An omer is about 9 1/2 cups (2.3 liters). As I read these instructions, I think about the Lord's Prayer Jesus gave us ( Matt. 6:9-13).

In this prayer we ask God for our daily bread. And John 6:32-51, where He speaks of being the Bread of Life that came down from heaven. This chapter speaks how the Israelites ate manna in the desert and still died, but not so for those who eat the Bread of Life, Jesus.

Anyone who did not obey the instructions concerning manna had an unpleasant experience but God chose not to punish them severely. He was merciful to the disobedient and fickle Israelites. The manna was unique, one of a kind food, which does not exist in the natural world. YHWH fed the Israelites with manna and, I thin, quail, throughout the 40 years of wandering. But even so, Jesus said, man does not live on bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. It was better for the Israelites to believe God and His Word than to go with human reason and save more manna than can be eaten in a day. The fact that the manna kept to the next day bred worms and was inedible yet this was not so for the manna gathered the day before to be kept over night for the Sabbath demonstrates this Scripture well. ( Matt. 4:4)

Relying on God day to day is the way we are to live our life. Not consumed with "always stocking up just in case" or being so frugal that one cannot enjoy the blessings of God that one receives by trusting Him. We are to be wise and certainly saving or putting up food is a good thing, but not to a point of compulsion to where one trusts in his one ability to provide today and also for the future. This daily provision also reminds us that we should be satisfied that God provides what is necessary for life, not riches, gold, silver, mansions, largess of any kind. We should be content with what God provides and seek the riches and treasure we have in .

This chapter seems to introduce the Sabbath command. Is this the first time?

Hi Des!

The reason Saul got mad because in the song the woman said Saul killed THOUSANDS and David killed TENS OF THOUSANDS. She gave David a bigger honor in front of the whole court. This is when Saul started hated David. He also realized God was with them.

Hope this helps. Any more questions on this subject please let me know. Be happy to help.

God bless my friend.

Hi Margo.

Go to Jeremiah 5:3,4

They are poor in spirit because they do not have God in their lives.

I feel psalms 37:1-6 explains it really well. In this one he is telling everyone if someone is hurting, misusing you, lying, cheating, if you feel hopeless these are the poor in Spirit. We must go to God for help. There is so much on this subject it is a beautiful promise from our Heavenly Father. He promises that if you are poor in spirit and go to him and follow him you will be in the Holy Kingdom of God. (Ya!)

If you need more scriptures please let me know. I will be happy to give more.

God bless my friend.

Hi, Gigi!

My CT scan is next Friday; I am praying that everything will go well.

How are you? I have been praying that the results from your ultrasound went well, and I will continue to pray that everything goes well for you!

May God bless you always!

Cheryl,

Don't worry. The longer we spend in our Faith, the more our Father will reveal to us through His Holy Spirit.

I have heard and/or read many scripture that never seemed to make sense. After reading more of the Bible the Holy Spirit provided new wisdom and knowledge. To include discernement and understanding. We can read the Bible 100 times and still not fully understand all of the scripture.

Read the Bible with a soft heart and open mind. Your understanding, is coming.

I prefer KJV to any other but also reference the NIV.

May God pull you strongly to Him through His Holy Spirit!

God Bless

This is another amazing chapter in which the glory of the LORD appears in the cloud and speaks to the Moses, God provides daily food for the Israelites, even after they murmur against Moses and complain; and Moses instructs the Israelites about gathering the manna throughout the week.

The chapter begins with the Israelites leaving verdant Elim, with the 12 wells (one for each tribe to have plenty of water) and 70 trees, providing shade and respite from the harsh wilderness heat. (Remember that originally 70 Israelites went to Egypt during the famine) They traveled into the wilderness of Sin (Sin was the name of the Mesopotamian moon god) They had been traveling for 1 1/2 months. The Israelites hungered though they had lots of livestock; but perhaps, no grain left to make bread. They began to murmur and complain to Moses, saying that they had it much better in Egypt in bondage than here in freedom with YHWH. They even said that it would have been better if they had died in Egypt than to be taken out into this wilderness and be killed by YHWH. What an affront to the true God who had already delivered them with multiple miracles. But just like when they murmured about not having water to drink, God provided sweet water at Marah and plentiful water at Elim.

YHWH speaks to Moses about the manna from heaven and the quail overrunning the camp. Moses instructs Aaron to speak to the whole group. And as promised in vs. 7 the glory of YHWH appears in the cloud and He speaks to Moses (vs. 10). How was this appearance different from simply the pillar of cloud by day and fire by night? When Moses saw the burning bush the text said that the Angel of the LORD was within the fire. So, perhaps this same Angel of the LORD appeared in the cloud since this theophany spoke audibly to Moses. The LORD gives more instructions to Moses for the people concerning the Manna. These instructions are then given to the whole congregation.

Hello Lori,

Good question, if i understand correctly. You are speaking of the elect or chosen, as spoken of in Revelations 7. The 144,000 sealed, elect, from the 12 tribes.

Hope this helps!

God Bless

Hi Margo! If you look up the word 'poor' in a concordance, you'll find it can also be translated, "reduced to beggary; begging; asking for alms; lowly; afflicted; powerless to accomplish an end; needy."

One who is poor in spirit is one who has been made to realize his or her absolute emptiness, destitution, neediness, helplessness.

Only when by God's grace we are brought to see our true condition as entirely poverty stricken spiritually, and in total need of the free gift of Christ's atoning work and righteousness; only as we see our utter helplessness and inability to save ourselves will be fly to Christ as our Savior and our All in all. Being 'brought low' by God's grace is a big gift from His heart and hand! :) It is great to be, in ourselves, 'nothing' - so that Christ can be Everything!

Blessings!

Romans 9, Romans 12,

Hebrews 7:17-28, Hebrews 9, Hebrews 10, references Exodus 39, Exodus 40, Leviticus,

Note Hebrews 10:12 "But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down at the right hand of God." also John 19, Isaiah 53, Luke 23,

Please pray I start back to college on March 28, 2022 finish May 2023. I don't have to pay as I get scholarships bursaries please. I also dont have to pay upfront until my law suit settles from car accident next year. Please all of this I find out quickly. I also receive living expenses. A lot I know, I thank you.

Hi my friend.

Two answers; yes some know that the are giving false doctrines. Here are some places in the bible you can fine this answer.

Revelation 22:18-19

God made it clear do not add and/or subtract his words and many preachers do.

Also check out 1 Timothy 6:3-10

It describes false preachers. Some have good intentions but their proud and envy stops them from the truth. Many false preachers pander to the flock even change the word so they will not leave.

A true preacher CAN NOT DO IT BY THEMSELVES. They have to have the Holy Spirit with and in them.

If you need more scriptures on this issue please let me know. I have other verses.

God bless you my friend.

Mary, the mother of Jesus, was from Galilee. Nazareth, being a town in Northern Galilee.

Song of Solomon 1:6. Have you ever experienced rejection by other Christians because of your sin? Have you ever experienced rejection by other Christians because of your appearance or reputation? The Lord's dove in this book, the Shulamite, pressed on through such rejection to find the one she loved, the Chiefest among ten thousand.

6 Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.

Song 5

6 I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.

7 The watchmen that went about the city found me, they smote me, they wounded me; the keepers of the walls took away my veil from me.

8 I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if ye find my beloved, that ye tell him, that I am sick of love.

I believe the differences comes from these scriptures : Matthew 5:16, Matthew 7:21-29, Revelation 2:23, Revelation 20:13, Matthew 25:31-46,

Even Jesus did works: Matthew 11:2, Luke 19:37, & said greater works we shall do. John 14:20,

Matthew 16:27,

Matthew 23:3,5,23, hypocrisy not ok, you can read whole chapter & those chapters around it for context. John 8:39,

Romans 3:27-28, helps clarify, 'law of faith' Romans 4, Romans 9:30-33,

What is argued is: Romans 11:6, but in context it's the grace extended to Gentiles Romans 11:16-27, also read whole chapter Romans 11,

& Galatians 2:16, "knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.'' the works of the law are in Gen. Exodus, Deuteronomy, Leviticus. Galatians 3,

& Galatians 2:8,9, but we can't ignore Galatians 2:10,

& 2Timothy 1:9 , Titus 3, Hebrews 4, Hebrews 4:11,

However again we can't ignore 2Timothy 3:16-17, Titus 1:15,16, Titus 2, Hebrews 10:24, James 3:13, 1Peter 2:12, Revelation 2:26,

* James 2,
