You can go to this website and see a list with all the scriptures too. Save it to 'favorites' so you can copy them down if you want.

I like the list.

I finished all my exams, I told my clinical supervisor to send the grades for my clearance to my intenrship coordinator, however they are so slow to move and I already feel extremely shy to follow them up on text messages because she doesnt reply to me... Now I messaged my internship coordinator regarding my INC grade for completion in order to graudate college, then he told me " I havent computed your grade yet, will let you know soon.. I am everyday praying to God that I will graduate.. but very fearful at the same time that I will fail and will repeat another year..... This pandemic is causing people to move slow.. but I know God is in control

I would like you to the following verses 1Timothy 2:12

1Corinthians 14:34-35

Titus 2:1-15

I believe you can guide me well through the power of the holy spirit

Asking a prayer for my country and its leaders. We want the country to succeed and for people to return to a normal, healthy, social, and balanced society. Currently there's forces trying to undermine everything and even inflict physical harm on its citizens. The media is fueling this with propaganda and it's very disturbing to see such evil infiltrating society. We know it does not come from God. Praying that good overcomes evil in this world and that light shines and people with open eyes can see the truth and can come and follow Jesus.

Prayed for you and your family. God bless you!

Amen! Thank you for saying that. God bless...

I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. Looks like I commented on something else

entirely. Apology again.

I looks to me like you're saying that she divorced you? If she is a believer in Christ then she's still bound to the vow. If she's not a believer and has chosen to leave, then you are released from your vow.

Matthew 6:31 and following are Jesus's comment on divorce. If the reasons are adultery or fornication, the divorce is final. The vow is broken.

If you have a Bible with center of each page, Reference Columns; the tiny alphabet letters will refer you to Old Testament laws concerning marriage and divorce. But since Jesus re-explained it according to Grace, what's in Matthew 6 is what we have to go by.

Sometimes people can be counseled by their Pastor and make an effort to repair what is broken. It requires co-operation by both parties. All I can really offer, is that you are not breaking faith with Jesus. Talk with your Pastor anyway.

Luke 2:14

"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."

From google:

On earth peace, good will toward men.

He's saying we can experience peace in our souls, peace with the Lord and peace toward our fellow humans. God's intentions toward us are kindly, and if we take that revelation to heart, it will enable us to show good will toward our neighbors.

Now this part its me and the holy spirit writing:

So when we have a peaceful mindset, and have peaceful feelings in our hearts, we will have a better life and joy, because the joy comes from God, and what better peace and joy than that? And actually having peace and joy help us to be better to others, and be nicer to them an have good wills towards them. /and we would create a good environment around others. And God will helps us to always be there, where we need to be, if we are on his ways, and he fills us up with his peace and joy.

And every day we should be thanking God that he gave hos only son to die for us, and go through all that pain for us to save us, and that he thought of us first because he loved and loves us. We should love God because he loves us first, and because of who he is, and because our God is awesome, and really cool, and his everything good, because our God has nothing to do with evil, but with good only, and that what he wants for us, good only in our life.

Bye, God bless you all.

Malaki sarp on john3:15....forgive and be baptized for the Remission of sin and you will be saved! Holy to the LORD!

First you must agree with God about your sin:

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool ( Isaiah 1:18).

Then your sin must be paid for.

You have no way to pay the penalty.

The Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ , willingly submitted his sinless body and blood to die on the cross to pay the price to deliver sinners from sin, death, and Hell (see Romans 3:24-28).

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved ( Acts 16:31).

He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy ( Proverbs 28:13)

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness ( 1 John 1:9).

Kidnappers, slave traders and the like.

Great comments, Bob! Not many believers understand it the way you do. "Flesh and blood did not reveal that to you." I do believe though, that Noah preached "it's gonna rain," for closer to 115 years and built the boat during the last five. God bless!!

We'll have to exchange emails I guess. I'm not going to try to pray for people if I'm going to be blocked. I'll see you around.

Psalms 91

15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.

|Interpretation|

Here we see that if we call unto the Lord (which would mean by prying or fasting), God will listen to out prayers and respond. Either according to our petition, if it is in his will, or something else.

{Example}

If Alejandra wanted a job to start of her career, and she asked God to give her a Job, let's say she want to work at 'Maria Sanchez pet shop' (But she wants to be a vet). BUTTTT..... God has something different planned, he hears her prayer but gives her a job as a Vet apprentice!!!

-S.A.W.M

Sorry if my comment came across that it is a sin to pray to God instead of Jesus. If one prays 'in Jesus name' they are still in essence praying to God thru Jesus and Jesus is the only way to God. So pray in Jesus name or pray straight to Jesus, either way, just pray, and pray often. As for me, I pray "Dear Lord Jesus.........."

what is the meaning of Baptism..?

Why we need Baptism..?

I wanted to take a moment for all those who are submitting prayer requests. If you don't see a response to your request please know that many people ARE here praying for you! Even if you feel alone, we are here praying with you and for you.

Please also take a moment when submitting your request to pray for others!

Prayer is truly powerful beyond measure.

God Bless each of you and may Jesus fill your hearts with His love and presence.

People naturally interpret this different ways. You can get a rough survey of widespread opinion by simply listening to prayers. People often use different terms interchangeably, like Dear... Lord, Jesus, Father, God, etc. I personally believe God looks at the heart and that people are not sinning by using the wrong proper noun.

It is my opinion that we are to pray to the Father in the name of Jesus. Jesus said no one comes to the father but through me. That doesn't automatically mean we switch and start worshiping and praying to Jesus only. Jesus is the pathway; he said he's the way to get to the Father. It doesn't say the Father is the way to get to Jesus, or that Jesus is the way to get to Jesus. So, I believe it implies that we are trying to follow Jesus to lead us to the Father. John 14:6. Jesus intercedes for us. Romans 8:34. It said to follow Jesus in His example, but no where in the Bible am I aware of it saying to worship and sing songs solely to Jesus.

Of course confusion is not surprising as it says Jesus and God the Father are one. Of course, they're separate to some extent, but united. We just don't know to what extent they are united or as 'one'. John 10:30.

John 7:16-18. Jesus was sent by God the Father. He was presenting information pre-approved by God the Father. There is a slight hierarchy in my opinion. So, I think to pray to Jesus and worship Jesus is not supported by scripture in my opinion. But if I hear someone praying to Jesus and praising Him I do not see that as offensive.

God bless...

Beautiful!

What does good fruit mean ?

We will have to agree to disagree. The bible plainly states that Jesus Christ is our intercessor.

14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.

15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

*18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.

21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

The Bible says much about vows and oaths. I believe you made a promise, which is different as Psalm 76:11 indicates.

Here is this websites commentary on That scripture:

Redeemer.

7-12 God's people are the meek of the earth, the quiet in the land, that suffer wrong, but do none. The righteous God seems to keep silence long, yet, sooner or later, he will make judgment to be heard. We live in an angry, provoking world; we often feel much, and are apt to fear more, from the wrath of man. What will not turn to his praise, shall not be suffered to break out. He can set bounds to the wrath of man, as he does to the raging sea; hitherto it shall come, and no further. Let all submit to God. Our prayers and praises, and especially our hearts, are The Presents we should bring to the Lord. His name is glorious, and he is the proper object of our fear. He shall cut off the spirit of princes; he shall slip it off easily, as we slip off a flower from the stalk, or a bunch of grapes from the vine; so the word signifies. He can dispirit the most daring: since there is no contending with God, it is our wisdom, as it is our duty, to submit to him. Let us seek his favour as our portion, and commit all our concerns to him.

Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

I don't know what you vowed or promised, so I cannot say more. I think you should have a meeting with your Pastor and pray about this. Get this off your chest, so-to-speak.

You are right,

It was said by Eve.

Eve saw the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Satan) as the most desirable and beautiful creature she had ever seen.

That is why she added the words "neither shall ye touch it."

Both she and Adam failed.

Several people have already discussed pre, post and mid tribulation;
