The Attention Jesus Will Receive
It is my heart to believe that according to the writings of the prophets that the kingdoms of Judah and Israel have been one since their return from Babylonian captivity. For one I cannot think of a single time they are referred to as a divided people in the Gospels or all the New Testament. …
Our Protection
There are many who are reliant for the government to protect us. Protect us from having no health care; protect us from a lethal threat from a gunman, or the terrorist who go to great lengths to terrorize, maim, and kill great numbers of people. Some even desire the government to protect us from poverty …
That They May Know
There is a big difference in Scripture for man to know that God is the LORD; and for men to know themselves to be but men. However, both are clearly tied together. Before one can know the Living GOD one must realize their feebleness before God. We must realize that we need God. He does …

Shall Know
Reading for January 21, 2018: Exodus 5 - 7 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch forth Mine hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them. Exodus 7:5 (KJV) There is a prominent phrase that appears throughout all of the Old Testament. That phrase is, …
Beasty Kingdoms
God reveals the kingdoms of men as beasts of the earth. Beasts like a “Lion with eagle’s wings” (7:4), “a bear… with ribs in its mouth” (7:5), “a leopard, which had four wings on its back…” (7:6); then, a fourth beast “dreadful and terrible”. These beasts represent human governments which the LORD was showing Daniel …

No Greater Servant
"Behold, My servant shall deal prudently, He shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high. As many were astonied at thee; His visage was so marred more than any man, and His form more than the sons of men: so shall He sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at Him: for …
