I love that God told Noah exactly how to build the Ark. Even up to the type of wood to use and how many floors and rooms. I love that he told Noah to bring his children and their spouses onto the boat both male and female. Then he said go bring a male and female of every other creature onto the Ark. why do you think he wanted a male and female? Of course so they could reproduce to replenish the earth when the water receeded. God didn't say bring all males or all females on to the Ark. Because he knew it would take both to reproduce and replenish the earth. It tells us in the beginning that God male then female as a help mate. Then because of sin she was to bear children. From then on the earth started to be replenished. It took both male and female to reproduce. If God had not made a female who Adam named Eve do you think we would have been here today? I love Genisis.

I've been carrying various burdens and I want to place everything in Jesus' hands. Would appreciate your prayer.

I saw it spelled Damar in the article I read. I am so glad he is recovering well. So young, and such a life-shattering thing to have happen. may he have a long and fruitful life serving the Lord.

That's a beautiful testimony. I often pray for workers of darkness to be set free and when I hear a testimony such as yours I just have to stop and worship the Lord.

John 8:36

"If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."

Psalms 107:2

"Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;"

Correction* i'm sure you know what I meant but just to clarify what I meant to Imply was there is no earthly love like a mother's love!

Yes Jesse, you are right. I thought Herod died of old age, but no he died due to a horrible illness.

Amen Tyler! Praise the Lord!

Amen! The Lord is great and greatly to be praised! Andevery good gift comes from The Father!

:-)

I'm still amazed at how the Lord kept me safe yesterday. He always amazes me. His mercy endureth forever!

Praise Him! Let the redeemed of the Lord say so

Praise His holy name. Holy, holy, holy, is He. Worship Him in the beauty of Holiness.

I have trials and temptations. Everyone has them. Everyone has hard days, weeks, months, and even years ( I have) but I have learned to be content. The Lord has been there through it all. I don't believe He has ever forsaken me. Even when I walked away from Him.

If I go down to the pit of Hell I will praise Him. Because He is worthy. Worthy is the Lamb! Who was, and is, and is to come. For His mercy endureth forever.

Revelations 12:11

And they overcame him by the BLOOD OF THE LAMB, and the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Just wish to shout out a thank you to the Lord for being with Damar Hamlin and restoring his life from his heart attack last week on the field.

May Demar come to the realization that God spared him and so, may he live his life for Jesus from now on. Amen.

Wow, I just read and listened to the bible with new eyes and new ears. I know now that the God of love I believe in, is the same God of love in this time of Genesis. I did not live back then. I live now. I saw God's love and caring for man in the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Off topic perhaps, is my wondering about the word "the" I am building a case in my mind that "the" means "true God is Love, not false gods. And it's all okay. It is okay back in the (God love)time of Genesis and it is true now. Another name for God is Love. Another name for God is Life. Life then and Life now. Does this make any sense?

Hi Rugged Christian.

That is a great testimony and gives hope to those who are lost.

Thanks for sharing!

I pray the Lord continues to bless you.

This goes in the 'Fear of the Lord' category

I'm praying for your precious ama today. There's no love like a mothers love and I pray that the Lord would indeed be merciful and heal her in the very best way possible. And that He would pour out His Holy Spirit upon her in this time of illness and uncertainty. I also pray that if she hasn't made Jesus Christ the Salvador of her life, that she would do it now. I pray this to God, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

I pray you don't abandon your Mother in this time, that GOD help you to be with her. Matthew 25:31-46, Matthew 24:45, 1Timothy 5:8,

I believe the psalmist is speaking about when we are going though ,what I call DRY TIMES with God. There will be days we will question our salvation ,our worship,our crying out to the Lord! In these times the Lord sometime wants to see what we are going to do? Our we going to keep studying the word, worship, keep raising our hands to HEAVEN or just give up ? Remember the book of Job, can we be like Job?Well for me ,I have been though a lot of dry times over 42 years. I almost went back . Family, job situations, marriage. But the song writer said "trouble does not going to last always". When hard times come we go on a fast from the TV,from the pleasures of this world . Do God's work all the time, not sometimes. Look at this ,this way. When we our at work, things don't always go our way, we don't always get off on time,that associate that never agrees with you on this day ,worse than ever, that doesn't stop us from going to work! I said that to say this don't give up on Christ, he made the ultimate sacrifice,giving his Life on the Cross. John 10:10 That we may have Life and that more abundantly, In JESUS Remember True Christians don't give up to the world,we give in to JESUS.I believe in " 2 Corinthians 4:8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair ;" 1 Corinthians 10:13

"There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." But we must remember this scripture in " James 1:13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: Now let's remember also that God loved us first. I leave you with this study your Bible showed thyself approved. Don't slack in God's work,also don't be caught with your work undone. Have A Blessed New Year with Jesus on your mind All the Time.

Carol,

Here is part 2:

Another reason why he (Herod) gave the order to have them put to death when he died was so that the Jewish people would have somebody to mourn over because he knew that they would not mourn over him.



That is the kind of man he was. That's how paranoid he was over his "ruler-ship."



Now, can you imagine if a group of men came into town and said "Where is He who is born king of the Jews?"



Now here's how Herod died, and if you research the accounts of his death, you will see that he died a horrible death. He was riddled with disease and here's the circumstances:



Herod's wife's name was Miriam. After he had her put to death, he missed her. He would see various women and think that they were her. And eventually he went down and got involved with prostitutes.



There was one in particular that he thought was his wife, and he called her by name, and he had relationships with her.



He caught diseases from that relationship, which literally, if you would read the account, it was a pretty bad death. He died in 4 B.C. He died a horrible death!



So you can imagine his paranoia about Jesus as these wise men came into town asking where is he who is born King of the Jews.



Herod's thoughts were "I'm the king of the Jews. What are you talking about?" This man Herod, he went crazy. This was Herod the great, Herod the king.

Carol,

I can share a little on Herod the king that we see in Matthew Chapter 2, information about him, and also how he died.

Here are some important facts about Herod the king:

He's also known as "Herod the great" in times of history. This man was an Edomite.

He was not a Jew. And yet at the same time, through the Roman government, he took control over the Jewish people.



In order to win them over, he would help them. He would actually take gold from his home and from his palace and have the gold sold and the money brought in to feed the poor.



Not only did he help the poor, but he would have athletic fields built and he would have various activities going on to help the community of the Jews so that he would win their favor.

The flip side of Herod the great was that he was crazy. A crazy man can only be nice for so long. But he was paranoid over his reign as king. And so you can imagine what is taking place in Matthew Chapter 2.



Herod was so paranoid over people plotting against him that he had three of his sons put to death because he thought they were plotting against him.



He had his first two sons killed, Alexander and Aristobulus. And later he killed Antipater who was supposed to take the throne. He had his wife put to death because he thought she was plotting against him.



Numerous members of the family, if he saw them together and thought that they were speaking together against him behind his back, he would have them put to death.



He died approximately a year after the Lord was born. And in knowing that he was about to die, he had a decree made that all of the leaders in Jerusalem would be rounded up and placed into a holding area.

And at the moment he died, they would all be put to death so that he would know that no leader would succeed him to the throne.

I need to send a part 2, and I will also share with you how he died.

First time going public with this.. It was on 11/2/22 that the Lord removed the heart of stone form me and placed a fleshy one in. Since 1986, I was a practitioner of traditional witchcraft and ancestral paganism. I was known internationally through my podcasts and appearances on hundreds of YT channels and podcasts. On 11/1/22, I had a compelling urge to pray to a God that I had been at war with since I was 9 to ask for His help with my daughters as I am a single father of two girls. Within a minute, He answered. It was like this voice within me said " take them to church". Without analyzing what I felt, I immediately complied.

24hrs later, I said to myself that if I am going to make this sacrifice for my daughters and walk into enemy territory then I need to prepare myself by listening to sermons. I came across this sermon by a well known pastor and he said " there are many who study the bible for years to use it as a telescope to argue and debate but I ask you, when was the last time you let the bible study you and be a mirror?" I broke and this consuming feeling overtook me that I could not fight and a transformation was happening within me that I have never experienced before. It was God's irresistible grace that I could not fight and the transformation within was He removing that heart of stone and putting in a fleshy one. I immediately gave my life over to him and repented for all my sins and the lives I have destroyed over the decades.

So I am no longer the enemy but a Brother In Christ.. I am no longer and enemy of God but a Soldier In His Army.

It was on 11/2/22 that God called on me and removed the heart of stone and placed a fleshy one in. I practiced traditional witchcraft and ancestral paganism since 1986 as well as one of many wolves who persecuted Christians through various means. My deeply rooted hated for Christians, Christianity and God was all consuming. I understand very much your journey and one can only praise the Lord that He chose us. All we can do is utilize our past to protect the flock.

Unfortunately, many believe that to "produce good fruit" means to gain financially and/or gaining a large flock around them. I believe that by producing good fruit is increasing your love for God and showing that in both one's personal and public life whether it is meant to be seen by everyone or not. "Producing Good Fruit" or "Show One's Fruit" can twist and turn many minds and can lead to intense debates.

Alex1939...Lemme give ya my understanding of what the good fruit is...1st off we know that Mary's good fruit was a baby Christ...And Gal.4:19 Paul is saying My lil Children of whom i travail in birth till Christ is formed in you...That Good seed can form Christ in anybody that hears ( understands )...And Jesus tells us the Kingdom of God is as a man who sows seed in his field...The world being the field as our hearts our minds etc...Peter said that hearing and understanding the word was the key to being bornagain...We have to keep in mind that we are gonna be bornagain in the Spiritual realm thus there is a Spiritual Child in our future...Thats y Jesus was saying that which is born of the spirit is Spirit...So this good fruit is a baby Christ the H.G. the Child of Promise...Rev.12:10 Proves that the good fruit is a Baby Christ...The H.G...Simply b/c the sower of that good seed is Christ the bridegroom...That GREAT promise was multiplication of his seed...Thus he has to know us...There can not be any regeneration or multiplication of his seed unless he knows us...Not Anybody can understand this mystery...Thats y he tells us these things are HID from the wise and prudent but only revealed unto babes...Our fruit, our new innerman the H.G. That has to be born in us GBU.

The Kingdom of God and the good fruit ( the manchild ) are 1 and the same...Thats y he is saying unless you receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in...The Kingdom of God comes by hearing his good seed the word.. .She brought forth aman Child that is gona rule all nations...Then Rev.12:10 says now is come Salvation and the Kingdom of our God and the power of his Christ ( the manchild ) That is gonna rule all nations...Thats y he always refers to himself as the Son of man...Simply b/c mankind has to bring forth fruit unto God which is the H.G. That Child of Promise...The multiplcation of Christ in humanity...After the book is opened and we sing that New SONG.

Such a powerful verse. It was on 11/2/22 that God chose me and removed the heart of stone from me and placed a fleshy one in. I was one of many wolves that attacked the flock for decades and now He has called me to become a sheep dog. In all, I see it as God performing a miracle as I never would have entertained the idea of being a Christian yet I am so grateful.

Also, to go along with what you said concerning John the Baptist of the revelation of who Jesus The Christ was before any miracles were performed. Even before John laid his physical eyes upon Jesus, it says in Luke 1:41 that the baby John leapt in his mother's womb at just the presence of Christ also in the womb in his mother's womb. This revelation only comes from the Father and His will and design.

I need prayer for my mother Libia in Colombia. She has a cancer tumor in her tiroides. She is old person. She live alone. Pray for she don't have surgery and God heal her complete her body.

She always support me in my life and she is my mother and my best friend.

Pray for one miracle.

Thank you.
