"Ye shall therefore keep all My statutes, and all My judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out. And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred …

In The Holy Place
"And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons that were left, 'Take the meat offering that remaineth of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and eat it without leaven beside the altar: for it is most holy: and ye shall eat it in the holy place, because it …
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 Nineteen – GOD Is Not Contained in a Box
We have some Christian leaders today saying to us, that God is bound to answer our prayers, answer our demands, and so forth; maybe not in so strong a fashion but many times in more subtle ways. One thing we need to realize as Children of our GOD is that God is obligated to us …

Day Sixteen – Take Possession
Today's reading for our 90 day journey is Joshua 12 - 24. Let us look back a moment to chapter 10 verses 12-14 You will note that Joshua spoke to the LORD, and gave command for the sun to stand still. Now from a human point of view that would be impossible; but our God …
Day Eight – Be Holy
We read today from Leviticus 2 - 14, and we see that God is holy. Lest anyone think that this is only an Old Testament teaching; think again, for the apostle Peter wrote: "But as He which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; because it is written, …
Who Are You That Judges Another
"From whence come wars and fightings among you? Come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask …
The Overthrow of the Evil City
"He that dasheth in pieces is come up before thy face: keep the munition, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily. For the LORD hath turned away the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel: for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine branches. The shield of his …
The Glory of The God of Israel
"Afterward He brought me to the gate, the gate that looketh toward the east: and, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and His voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with His glory. And it was according to the appearance of the vision …
Lying False Prophets
"Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome, because of the LORD, and because of the words of His holiness. For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth; the pleasant …
Through God We Shall Do Valiantly
"O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory. Awake, psaltery and harp: I will awake early. I will praise Thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto Thee among the nations. For Thy mercy is great above the heavens: and Thy truth unto …
The LORD Reigns
"The LORD reigneth, He is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, He hath girded Himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved. Thy throne is established of old: Thou art from everlasting. The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift …
A Zeal for GOD, and Holiness
Sometimes I fear, due to what some call grace, that holiness is a forgotten quality within Christianity. We need the zeal of Phinehas in dealing with sin; starting with our own sins. Due to the deceptive, lying, personal aggrandizing of Balaam to make his own greed successful the Moabites came in with lusty pleasures to …
Be Clean, Be Pure
While we look at Leviticus, and the holiness of God we need to remember these are part of the work of the schoolmaster which leads us to Christ Jesus (Galatians 3:24-25), and "...we are no longer under a schoolmaster". We do learn from Leviticus and the Law, that GOD is holy; that we are called …
Keeping GOD’S Statutes and Judgments
"And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 'Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the LORD your God. After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do: neither shall …
