Observations from reading the Bible. Not in depth study points, but scriptures that spoke to me especially, while reading.
When Yahweh’s people go wrong, the whole world suffers. The creatures of the land who still honours Yahweh-suffers. Jeremiah 14:5-6 – Even deer in the fields give birth and abandon their young because there is no grass. Wild donkeys stand on the bare hills. They sniff the air like jackals. Their eyesight fails because they …
Observations on extended Prayer and Fasting The Spiritual Hyper-focus on the spiritual. Not that the trials aren’t still there, but they’re not a focus. You see Yahweh in everything. I mean everything. Doubt and fear reduces significantly. Not that they won’t pop up their ugly heads, but they don’t overwhelm as much. There is a …
Jeremiah 31:10 – You nations, listen to the Lord’s word. Tell it to the distant islands. Say, ‘The one who scattered the people of Israel will gather them and watch over them as a shepherd watches over his flock.’ Why did this strike a cord? Because I was just speaking (writing) about talking about Yahweh. The …
I know we harden. I know we harden. But oh gosh, we have to be that harden?! Jeremiah 42: 20, 21 – You only deceived yourselves when you sent me to the Lord your God and said, ‘Pray to the Lord our God for us, and tell us everything that the Lord our God says, …
Joel 2:13 – And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil. So I always laugh when I read this scripture because growing up, I always heard (for some reason) …
Romans 2:14-15 – For example, whenever non-Jews who don’t have the laws in Moses’ Teachings do by nature the things that those laws contain, they are a law to themselves even though they don’t have any of those laws. They show that some requirements found in Moses’ Teachings are written in their hearts. Their consciences …
Romans 9:2 – I have deep sorrow and endless heartache. Why do I like this scripture? Because it speaks about emotions. What Paul was feeling. I truly believe that as Christians we try to sweep out uncomfortable emotions under the rug too often (pot meet kettle). Romans 9:31, 32 – The people of Israel …
Joshua 1:14, 15 – Your wives, children, and livestock may stay in the land that Moses gave you east of the Jordan River. However, all your best soldiers must march in battle formation ahead of your relatives. You must help your relatives 15 take possession of the land the Lord your God is going to …
James 1:27 – Pure, unstained religion, according to God our Father, is to take care of orphans and widows when they suffer and to remain uncorrupted by this world. This here is why I don’t believe denominations are “important” in Yahweh’s eyes. You may be in any denomination and worshiping in spirit and in truth. …
Has ONE Chapter Obadiah 1:8 – “On that day I will destroy the wise people in Edom and take wisdom away from Esau’s mountain,” declares the Lord. What happens to a country that has no one who is wise? It truly dies as there is no one to even offer advice. But he also took …
