what happens in the finale battle?

(Lets pray/agree together for every child & grandchild that comes to mind)

Please pray for my ( and Sister Lenas) children & grandchildren. And that God will help me to remember that I cannot save them. But I ask that He will today. He alone is able to "enter the room" and release them from any bondage in their lives. He alone is able to set them completely free, to break and shatter every chain! He is able.

I pray that He will heal them, deliver them, protect them, and walk them into His divine will for them! And that they would fall down before His majesty and worship Him! For He is worthy of all of the honor, glory, and praise! Now and forever

Lord I rejoice right now as I trust You have done it. In Jesus mighty name Thank you God!!! You alone are worthy

Hi

I thought the rods were a switch from the wood of a certain tree that was known to affect lambing / birthing due to the substance it excreted into the water and the animals drank it

False doctrine is like adding something to the Lords word that isn't meant to be there.

Like poison it can destroy, pervert and mislead believers. This can be a tool for Satan who is twisted and very good at hiding subtly behind things that can appear innocuous.

Hello Don. That's a great question that I have never been able to figure out. I had to resort to a commentary but confess that I still don't understand how placing these rods before the flocks could produce offspring of certain colouring. So I will copy Albert Barnes' comment on this for your consideration:

"Jacob devises means to provide himself with a flock in these unfavorable circumstances. His first device is to place party-colored rods before the eyes of the cattle at the rutting season, that they might drop lambs and kids varied with speckles, patches, or streaks of white. He had learned from experience that there is a congruence between the colors of the objects contemplated by the dams at that season and those of their young. At all events they bare many straked, speckled, and spotted lambs and kids. He now separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flock toward the young of the rare colors, doubtless to affect them in the same way as the pilled rods. "Put his own folds by themselves." These are the party-colored cattle that from time to time appeared in the flock of Laban.

In order to secure the stronger cattle, Jacob added the second device of employing the party-colored rods only when the strong cattle conceived. The sheep in the East lamb twice a year, and it is supposed that the lambs dropped in autumn are stronger than those dropped in the spring. On this supposition Jacob used his artifice in the spring, and not in the autumn. It is probable, however, that he made his experiments on the healthy and vigorous cattle, without reference to the season of the year. The result is here stated. "The man brake forth exceedingly" - became rapidly rich in hands and cattle."

I hope this helps you somewhat - I'm still unsure how this could work & just accept this account as given.

:-) Thank you

Sister April, I pray for Gods blessings over your life today and that He would use you for His will and His work today.

And I pray with all my heart right now that God will march into the camp of the enemy and take back ALL the enemy has stolen from you and restore it unto you.In Jesus name

I've wondered that too. GOD directs some people to do out of the ordinary things & out of the ordinary things happen when they've done what GOD directed them to do. I think we're thinking too much into it like 'if we tried it will it work' here's some other examples

Exodus 17:6, Numbers 20:1-11, notice Numbers 20:8 GOD said "speak to the rock" , Numbers 20:12, Numbers 13 & 14,

Genesis 31:12,

Sister Lena,

May God bless you and keep you and cause His face to shine upon you today, and give you (and Israel) peace today and always.

I'm reading the book of Matthew. Jesus did a lot of healing! And casting put demons. My prayer is for the both of us right now that God would vE give us the faith to believe that we could be completely healed and delivered! In Jesus mighty name! Amen.:-)

Healing and Employment: pancreas to be literally touched by God and an open door towards employment. Satan is very deceiving; so I need proper directions and internal feelings towards the right Job. I have tried many avenues towards employment: God has given us a new place to occupy; so holding onto what savings we have would be nice for future investments.

Hi David. I have never heard of the S.I.T. Would you like to explain what it is?

I KNOW the Lord will forgive you of your sins. When you turn to Him with your whole heart. Honestly. Because His word says so and He cannot lie.

1John 1:9

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

:-)

I'm praying for you

God is faithful!

Bless you too, Chris.

Are little Babies who had died with the age around 1 week go to Heaven when Jesus will come in his power and great glory Luke 21:27

Gal. 3 : 16 Now unto Abraham and his seed were the PROMISES made but he says not unto seeds plural ( natual Israel ) but unto 1 seed which is Christ . Thus there has to be an Israel of God which is the multiplication of Christ in humanity via his seed as the field is the world . Thus the wheat is the H.G. the Child of PROMISE. Ya gotta realize that he is not sowing anything of this world but a heavenly seed of his own self ( his seed ) which is the living word and to whom the word came it made them Gods so we see that he is truly sowing the very seed of God . Remember God swore by his very self when he made that Promise of multiplication, Thus we will all birth a baby Christ which is the H.G. the Child of Promise .mankinds fruit unto God via that good seed the WORD. Thus he is truly mans offspring via that good seed . Now we can see y he refers to himself as the Son of Man. Mankind is gonna have a baby Christ which is the H.G that Child of PROMISE. Thats ye he refers to the H.G. AS THE Promise simply b/c the H.G. is the multiplication of Christ a ( baby Christ born in us vis his seed ) whosoever receiveth one such child in my name receiveth Me. Remember Jeremiah saw ALL Men in travail and CHILD BIRTH, Simply b/c he is gonna sow his seed in all the world. Being bornagain of an incorruptible seed etc which is the contents of that BOOK that has been sealed till the last days. I'm just trying to turn the hearts of the Fathers to the Children, his Children the babes and sucklings thata re gonna be born in us via his seed the contents of the book.

Hi Ready Correct doctrine always produces positive fruit and is a Glory to God,I.E. in luke 4:31+32 he taught in the synagogues and his word was with power again. In luke 7:1-10 with the centurion servant the centurion knew and believed that what Jesus Christ spoke words doctrine produced positive results good fruit. By their fruits they shall be known. In 2 Peter 1-8 verse 8 Fir if these things be in you and abound they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

May God Bless all those who like the word of God and do them. So that we can not miss Heaven. James 1:22

Matthew 1:18, Galatian 4:4-6,

Arrenge the chapters in grid form,the Bible Is very fanstic

Hi Don It had nothing to do with what he fed them it had everything to do with following Gods instructions and seeing the results. It is a great example of receiving information or instruction from God its like when the children of Israel marched around Jericho seven times then blew trumpets and down came a wall. By the five senses natural mind it doesn't make senses but they followed the man of Gods instructions and got Gods deliverance. Throughout Gods word when people listened to men of God believed and acted they always got deliverance. When the man of God Elisha in 2 Kings 4:1-7 ask a widow what can I do for you, she explained she was broke and he gave her specific instructions and she did them and got Gods deliverance. He ask her yo do something that made no sense but she obeyed. In the gospels this happened many times between Jesus Christ and the disciples where he ask them to do something that by the senses made no senses but he walked by the spirit and knew God would always meet the need.

Bill, I just want you to know that I'm praying for you. I cannot begin to understand what you must be going through but The Lord does for sure. So I asked Him to help you.

Which saints went home with Jesus at HIS resurrection?

I must publicly apologize. I replied to a sisters post on Hebrews 10:25. Trying to encourage her to attend a church building fellowship. Apparently, I added, "in the house of the Lord" to the scripture! I corrected her and the Holy Spirit told me to check the scripture as I wrote it from "memory". I somehow added "in the house of the Lord" to the scripture. I am so sorry. I am mortified at myself. I tried to apologize to her but could not remember where the post was and after searching, was unable to locate it. I'm trying to correct my mistake and ask forgiveness.

The scripture says ; Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together,*, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as you see the day approaching.

(*) This is where I added "in the house of the Lord"

Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your interpretation of the Apostles expected timetable for the return of Christ.

I do believe the Apostles belief that Christ would return for them within their lifetime was tempered with time. As you read in the discussion between Chris and myself, there is evidence, at least to me, that Paul grew to realize the tasks given to the believers by Christ would take longer than originally expected.

I see this as no negative reflection upon the Apostles. Scripture abounds with evidence the Apostles did not understand so much of what Christ taught to them as His future "missionaries". Foremost to me is their not understanding the crucifixion and resurrection.

But would we have understood? From a Jewish view of the Messiah, most likely not. We can not fault them as their expectations were entirely different from god's plan. Plus, our minds are slow to grasp some of the concepts of God's purposes.

Again, thank you for the kind comments.

Bill

Hello again brother Chris. As always, your thoughts give me the inspiration to explore the verses we are discussing. Thank you for stimulating my mind.

2 Corinthians 5:1-8, to me, is not reflecting the actual Rapture in and of itself, but more of Paul's expectations of his pre-Rapture and post-Rapture existence. Verse 6 - " Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:". While in this earthly body, our spirit is not in the presence of the Lord as He resides in heaven while we reside on earth. No question as to the truth of this concept. Verse 8 - " We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord". I see this as an expression of longing to exit the trials of this life and enter the rest preceding the actual spiritual entry into heaven.

Philippians 1:21-24 expresses the same as the verses above.

In both sets of verses, I do not see Paul expressing an immediate spirit in heaven event. To me, they do not say this. It is a happening that will occur with no timetable.

Your points for 2 Timothy 2:10-13 are well taken and understood. My purpose in using this scripture selection is verse 11. "It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:". To me, this verse reflects a new recognition of the timetable for the return of Christ. We will live with Him without a sense of it being immediate.

Your comment was, which is a very good observation, "an allusion to the resurrection of the body, I see it as specifically to the Promise made to those who have died to sin & self". I agree with the allusion of a resurrection, but not of the body at the rapture. First Corinthians 15:40 - "There are also bodies in the heavens and bodies on the earth. The glory of the heavenly bodies is different from the glory of the earthly bodies". This is reflected in 1 Corinthians 15:51-52.

Until our next chat, brother in Chr

Plz lemme give ya my slant on why Jesus always refered to himself as the Son of Man , 88 Times Jesus refered to himself as the Son of Man, Simply b/c mankind has to be bornagain of an incorruptible seed which is the seed of Christ That living WORD . Romans 7 : 4 Paul tells us that we must be married to Christ and bring forth fruit unto God which is the H.G. the Child of Promise ,This fruit unto God is a baby Christ which is the Child of PROMISE THE H.G. Unless ya receive the Kingdom of GOD as lil Child you will in no wise enter there in. The H.G is his offspring that is born in us via his seed and he said whosoever receiveth one SUCH CHILD IN MY NAME RECEIVETH ME . Thus he is truly the Son of Man , Manskinds fruit unto God. Thou shall suck dry the breasts of the Gentiles, Even the Gentiles are gonna birth a baby Christ mankinds fruit unto God . Kings shall be your nursing fathers and Queens shall be your nursing mothers impling that men and woman are gonna birth a baby Christ The son of man. Thats what the new birth is all about that great Promise that Christ Jesus wd be multiplied as the stars of heaven which requires that we wd birth a baby Christ the Child of PROMISE . When he breathe on them they were impregnated by his seed ,his breath was his word which is his seed ,B/c I have spoken these words sorrows has filled your hearts ,When a woman is in travail she has sorrows But after the Child comes which is a Baby Christ. The son of man The H.G.that Child of PROMISE , her sorrows are turned into Joy. Our new Birth . She brought forth a manchild which is a Baby Christ, Mankinds fruit unto God. Thats y he always refered to himself as the SON OF MAN

please continue to keep myself and my daughters and there families in your prayers today please remember my lost coworkers

Eneyval. We could think of that passage using a present-day scenario of an employer seeking the right person for the advertised position. He may receive twenty applications for it, but he has to still sift through each one, seeking out those qualities (both human & professional) that would best fit the position - where the high salary & conditions offered will ensure he will get the best output on behalf of the company. Likewise, Nebuchadnezzar sought out those from the captured Israel folk that met his specific criteria. And of course, God was with those four men (v17) blessing them with added skills for the job.

Hello Helen. I believe that you're correct & you've picked up on the essence of that verse. The Psalmist's goodness (however, commendable it might be), is absolutely "nothing" (in Hebrew) when God's Goodness is considered or compared to.

How did Jacob's trick with the rods before the animals while mating cause them to have different offspring?
