Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel. At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall …

A Root of Jesse
And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and His rest shall be glorious. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set His hand again the second time to recover the …
Neither fear their fear
The LORD spake also unto me again, saying, 'Forasmuch as this people refuseth the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah's son; now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the river, strong and many, even the king of Assyria, and all his glory: and he shall …
They shall eat the fruit
The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! For they have rewarded evil unto themselves. Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Woe unto the …
Day Sixty Five – Knowledge in Wisdom and Learning
Today's Scripture reading for our ninety day journey and adventure is Ezekiel 46 through Daniel 10. For our study we will focus on Daniel's prophecy. Daniel was one of many Jewish nobles who were taken by Nebuchadnezzar into Babylon as captives. Daniel and three of his friends, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah were chosen by the …

Day Sixty Four – Measuring Up
In the reading of the Bible one thing that stands out to me is that God is about His own glory. Now for a man or woman to be about themselves we call that arrogance, pride, no good even. Yet, for the Creator who has made all things, and seeing how He also loves the …
Day Sixty Three – That You May Know The LORD God
Reading the prophecy of Ezekiel can lead a person to only one good conclusion, and that is that GOD wants people to know Him. Some of the reading sounds harsh, deadly, and judgmental; however we are speaking of our Creator; and who are we to question how He works. Can the clay say to the …

Day Sixty Two – The LORD Sees; He Knows; You Will Know Him
My prayer for the readers of these posts is that you will receive a better understanding from the reading of God's Word. We need, we must hear Him. Our reading for today is Ezekiel 7 - 19. Consider the following thoughts... The prophet Ezekiel is taken by the hand of the LORD, in a vision …

Day Sixty One – Grieving
Jeremiah’s message in Lamentations seems to have taken place after the city of Jerusalem is defeated, the walls broken down, the temple destroyed, and the precious articles for temple worship taken away. We can see Jeremiah’s being known as “the weeping prophet” as we read the laments that are written there. Ezekiel speaks to the …
Day Sixty – The LORD Of Hosts; He Is The King
The reading of the prophecy of Jeremiah can be a difficult read; and even difficult to write about; especially if you focus on the judgment part of the prophecy. Jeremiah lived through much of the fall and destruction of Jerusalem, Judah and Israel. He also wrote many promises of God. Our Scripture reading today is …

Day Fifty Nine – GOD Will Not Withhold A Single Word
The prophecy of Jeremiah the prophet to Judah and Israel was a hard word to preach. It was especially so for a man who loved his people, and his nation; however, it was the word of the LORD, and Jeremiah was going to proclaim it, and it would be better for the people to have …

Day Fifty Eight – The Unsocial Prophet
“The preacher who does not mix with people will never make much of a preacher;” at least that has been said or thought by many. One thing needs to be understood by many preachers of the 21st century; if a preacher has been called by God to preach the Word of God, then we just …
Day Fifty Seven – Judgment By Our Sin
I find it very sad that so many have tried to change the definition of Biblical sin. According to God’s Word – the Bible – sin is a transgression of God’s law. Sin is failure to measure up to God’s glory; His requirements of the law. Nowadays, we hear things like, “Sin is whatever keeps …
Day Fifty Six – The Word of GOD Prospers
There are many times there is debate over the meaning of God’s Word. Even Christians, at times, debate over whether something is “Literal” or “Figurative” or allegorical. For me if God was speaking literal about the first coming of Jesus, and He came just as He has proclaimed; then when He speaks of the second …
Day Fifty Five – The Holy One of Israel
There is one phrase which keeps coming up in the prophecy of Isaiah. It is more than a phrase, it is a statement of the character of God. In Isaiah, as well as in other parts of Scripture we hear of “the Holy One of Israel”. It is a good term, a great reference to …
