Observations from reading the Bible. Not in depth study points, but scriptures that spoke to me especially, while reading.
Titus 1:11 – They must be silenced because they are ruining whole families by teaching what they shouldn’t teach. This is the shameful way they make money. The destruction of families lead to much more than that. The ripple effect is felt throughout society. Titus 3:1 – Remind believers to willingly place themselves under …
Micah 2:2,3 – They desire other people’s fields, so they seize them. They desire people’s houses, so they take them. They cheat a man and his family, a man and his inheritance. So this is what the Lord says: I’m planning a disaster to punish your family. You won’t be able to rescue yourselves. You will no …
Micah 3:5,6 – This is what the Lord says about the prophets who mislead my people: When they have something to eat, they say, “All is well!” But they declare a holy war against those who don’t feed them. That is why you will have nights without visions. You will have darkness without revelations. The sun will …
1 Timothy 1:9 – For example, a person must realize that those laws are not intended for people who have God’s approval. Laws are intended for lawbreakers and rebels, for ungodly people and sinners, for those who think nothing is holy or sacred, for those who kill their fathers, their mothers, or other people. This …
Habakkuk is having a conversation with Yahweh. That is so cool. Habakkuk 3:2 – Lord, I have heard the report about you. Lord, I fear your work. In the course of the years, renew it. In the course of the years, reveal it. In all this chaos, remember to be merciful. It’s funny to think …
1 Chronicles 10:2 – The Philistines caught up to Saul and his sons. They killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, Saul’s sons. Jonathan, faithful to the end. I look forward to meeting him one day. Jonathan: God has Given 1 Chronicles 12:22 – From day to day, men came to help David until he had an …
Note to Self: David and Yahweh were best friends and David still consulted with prophets to hear from Yahweh at times. 1 Chronicles 21:30 – However, David couldn’t go there to consult God because he was frightened by the sword of the Lord’s Messenger. Somehow thinking of David being that type of afraid of Yahweh …
Deuteronomy 4:7 – What great nation ever had their gods as near to them as the Lord our God is near to us whenever we pray to him? Tell me this isn’t an awesome promise? So often we think that Yahweh only became accessible after the veil was torn. But he was always near and …
Deuteronomy 17:14 – You will enter the land that the Lord your God is giving you. You will take possession of it and live there. You will say, “Let’s have our own king like all the other nations around us.” So said, so done. They clamoured for a king. “Rules” for the King Must not …
Judges 2:2-3 – You must never make a treaty with the people who live in this land. You must tear down their altars.’ But you didn’t obey me. What do you think you’re doing? So I have this to say, ‘I will not force them out of your way. They will be like thorns in …
