    The interpretation of Selah is not certain. We know that when it is used in the Psalter, it's often used in Psalms that are sung or in praise to God. Therefore, it can mean "to lift up or to exalt" as an ending to some declaration. Or, it could be a direction or musical notation to the singers to "pause, be silent or become louder or softer according to the musical director". So, one cannot be certain as to its meaning or even how the Jews today view that word or if they even take much notice of it in their readings.

    Have faith in God. With God nothing shall be impossible. Ask in prayer believing, and you shall have whatsoever you ask. (St. Mark 11:23-26).
  • Susie Ridgley on Psalms 1 - 4 years ago
    Whatever things you desire, when you pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. When you pray, forgive. Have faith in God. You can speak to the mountain and tell it to move. Don't doubt in your heart, but believe that those things you ask for will come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith ( Mark 11:23-26). God's word is filled with great and precious promises.

    God is holy, perfect, excellent, most high and Supreme Creator and Maker of heaven and earth. Trust and love Him with all your mind, body, heart, soul and strength. He is the true and living God of love and judgment. He created us to worship Him in spirit and in truth. It is marvelous to know God and His Precious Son, Jesus Christ. Let us live by the doctrine of Jesus, and be perfect as Jesus is perfect. Set your affection on things above and not on things on the earth.

    Watch and pray for Jesus is coming soon to receive His saints. The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life. What a blessing and privilege to be a servant of Christ. Let the people of God march on by faith. Pray, believe and receive.

    If the unbeliever depart let them depart. The believer can marry another but she or he has to be a christian.
  • Chris - In Reply on Psalms 1 - 4 years ago
    From what you have written, you are still married to your wife, in spite of her infidelity. She would need to acknowledge her sin of unfaithfulness to you, repent, be restored back to God & of course, be restored back to you, if you wish to receive her back.

    However, if you mean that you both have divorced & she has gone to another man & has subsequently left him, then you cannot re-marry her. There is no New Testament instruction on this matter (that I can remember), but certainly an Old Testament directive by God concerning a man finding uncleanness in his new wife (i.e. she was found to be impure/not a virgin), & he divorced her for that reason. Subsequently, after her second husband dies or divorces her, her first husband is warned that it would be a great sin to receive her back into marriage with him. ( Deuteronomy 24:1-5).

    Both parties in this instance, would do well to continue to remain single, bring all their matters, hurts & needs before the Lord, & then press on in the pathway of devotion and service to the Lord. Even though such marital problems can bring on much hurt & distress, the ministry of God's Spirit is very real to bring about healing, forgiveness & full mental & spiritual restoration. Many people often bypass God's requirements, treating the sanctity of marriage with disdain, and sadly do so to their greater hurt.

    Wesley's Commentary for Luke 12:55

    12:53 The father against the son - For those who reject me will be implacable toward their very nearest relations who receive me. At this day also is this scripture fulfilled. Now likewise there is no concord between Christ and Belial.

    12:54 And he said to the people also - In the preceding verses he speaks only to his disciples. From the west - In Judea, the west wind, blowing from the sea, usually brought rain: the south wind, blowing from the deserts of Arabia, occasioned sultry heat. # Mt 16:2|.

    12:56 How do ye not discern this season - Of the Messiah's coming, distinguishable by so many surer signs.

    12:57 Why even of yourselves, without any external sign, judge ye not what is right? - Why do ye not discern and acknowledge the intrinsic excellence of my doctrine?

  • Face Masks and Head Coverings in Church - In Reply on Psalms 1 - 4 years ago
    The Jews in Israel wear a prayer shawl when they are praying and interceding. It's like a prayer closet.

    I have big faith. The Bible teaches cleanliness in person, foods, etc which are for us to avoid food contamination, maybe sunburn? I'm not Jewish, but I wash everything that's going near my dinner table. (Even radishes)

    The word pestilence means almost the same as pandemic. The Bible warns us of their increase in the end of days approaching.

    Ecoli is prevalent and so is food poisoning. A toddler needs parents to get them through childhood, amen?

    I practice safety and I wear my mask in public places because we are asked to. All stores have signs on the doors. Japanese remove their shoes at the front door. It's a custom we are taught in childhood.

    I also wear ball caps, beanies, hoodies and bandanas on bad hair days :D and straw cowboy hats.

    Do what you are comfortable with. Our dress doesn't demonstrate our beliefs or the message we carry within us.

    They will know us by the LOVE we have for the brethren or sisthren. Cranky people give me opportunities to practice patience, tolerance, kindness and the Jesus kind of Love.

    The disciples were from various walks of life: fisherman, farmers, tax collector, scribe, Carpenters son. I'm thinking they didn't have backpacks for extra clothes?

    Divorce is adultery in the bible. I have been divorced and remarried and believe Jesus Christ has the power to forgive my sins. I believe Jesus Christ has the power to forgive any sin because he is judge. As long as we repent in sincerity and do not continue in the sins we have repented for. I believe divorced people can go to heaven but thats between you and the Lord. Pray to him repent and ask for guidance.

    Matthew 5:32 - But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

    John 8:2-11

    2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.

    3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,

    4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

    5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?

    6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.

    7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

    8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

    9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

    10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

    11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

    1 John 1:9 - If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
  • Marriage and Divorce - In Reply on Psalms 1 - 4 years ago
    If he was an unbeliever and divorced you; you're ok.

    If he beat on you regularly, you're ok.

    ( you're called to be at peace)

    You're not going to hell.

    Matthew 5 and 1 Corinthians 7 have divorce or marriage info.

    Busting up a marriage for other reasons; you may qualify for adultery, if you both were Christians at the time.

    Jesus forgave a woman caught in adultery.

    No one could condemn her except Jesus; and he forgave her.

    Confess, and Pray for forgiveness. I usually say to meet with your Pastor for this. It helps to hear some wise counsel. Vows before God are very sacred and binding. Our society disagrees. Follow Jesus and your conscience will always be at peace.

    I hope this helps. Mishael

    A tree, planted in the right place where sustenance is and purpose is achieved,from beginning to end, a work of God.Chaff,the ungodly, has no root,been released from it's sole purpose, as the way of sinners is, and has nothing but contempt for God. Then allowed to drift into dust once again.Whereas, the tree has a history of accomplishment and glorifying God,never to be forgotten in his sight.There is no time where the rule of God is not in effect,ever, or his memory fail those to whom he has imparted righteousness.
  • ALL SIGNS SIMULTANEOUSLY HAPPENING THE SAME TIME on Psalms 1 - 4 years ago
    JESUS GAVE US SIGNS:

    "Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?"

    4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

    6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

    7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

    8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

    9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

    10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

    11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

    12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

    13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

    14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

    15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

    16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

    17 Let him which is on the housetop NOT come down to take any thing out of his house:

    18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

    19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

    20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

    21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

    22 And except those days should be shortened, no flesh would be saved.

    You need a study Bible. I use the King James Study Bible and it is wonderful! Provides explanation of scripture, references to other scripture, many notes that are very beneficial and translation of words. You can also use your phone, tablet or computer to Google scripture and include the word "meaning"(exp. John 3:16 meaning) in your search. Pray for the Holy Spirit to help you understand what you are reading! As always, give thanks to God for the ability to have a Bible in your hands!

    I was in an incident where in a freak accident I was responsible for injuring another person. Even though it was not my intention to harm them, I'm carrying tremendous guilt over harming my fellow man. I am familiar with scripture with regards to guilt from sin and sinning toward God, however I'm ignorant of scripture in regards to harming my fellow man and seeking relief from that guilt.

    2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.

    Psalms 1:1

    "Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful."

    Hebrews 11:1

    11 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen

    James 1:17

    17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning

    Faith is a substance from above.

    In the Bible there are lots of things that show that abortion is wrong and shouldn't be done for one the Bible teaches that all life is valuable and shouldn't be taken from someone. It also shows that all life is precious all you have to do is look anywhere in the Bible and see these principles taught.

    We do not sit in council of evildoers, we meditate on the word of God day and night,, we are held to the same account of those who do not follow the word of God and do what is pleasing to oneself , and then call ourselves righteous, seeking power and greed, shouting hatred, killing unborn babies, calling what is good evil, an what is evil good, allowing pride sinners parade in the streets and we stand with it, while churches are being told to be silent, we are like the wheat being tossed to and fro, not I, I can not even cast a vote for those that hold those values, I am grateful for the price Yeshua paid for me, a sinner saved by grace, a servant to the Lord till he calls me home, he is my Rock, my Refuge, my Fortress, under his wing I shall abide. He loved me long before I knew his love, he sent his beloved son to take my penalty God Bless you all and may peace be with you all
