And our adversaries said, "They shall not know, neither see, till we come in the midst among them, and slay them, and cause the work to cease." And it came to pass, that when the Jews which dwelt by them came, they said unto us ten times, "From all places whence ye shall return unto …

The Word of the LORD Does Not Fail
And in the thirty and eighth year of Asa king of Judah began Ahab the son of Omri to reign over Israel: and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty and two years. And Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD above all that were …
The Wickedness of Wicked Rulers
Today we read Genesis 49 through Exodus 1. In Exodus 1 we read of the beginning of the affliction and rise of the nation of Israel. Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph. And he said unto his people, "Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more …
When GOD Says It, It Will Be Done
King Zedekiah had been warned by the word of the LORD what he was to do concerning Babylon; he did not obey the word of the LORD and in today's reading of Jeremiah 37 through 39 we see the outcome. In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadrezzar …
God’s Perfect Timing
Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all; but is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father. Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: but when the fulness …
Lily Among Thorns
I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys. As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters. As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet …
A Letter To The Captives
Now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem unto the residue of the elders which were carried away captives, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon; (after that Jeconiah the king, and the …
Do Not Despise The Chastening Of The Lord
For consider Him that endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, "My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint …
So It Came To Pass
"This was the word of the LORD which he spake unto Jehu, saying, Thy sons shall sit on the throne of Israel unto the fourth generation. And so it came to pass." 2 Kings 15:12 (KJB) REFERENCES: 2 Kings 9:25-26; 10:10; 13; Zechariah 1:6; Mark 13:31; John 10:35; 19:24, 36-37; Acts 1:16
Day Twenty One – The Rise and Fall of Kings and Commoners
The reading today was from 1 Samuel 30 thru 2 Samuel 11. Quite interesting reading of wars, strife, the death of one king and his family; the rise of a new king, and his fall. We see battles where people are killed. People of Israel are destroyed by foreign kings, and by their own people. …

Come Out; Be Separate – 2 Corinthians 6:11-18
"O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged. Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.

When the People are in Bondage
"And there was a great cry of the people and of their wives against their brethren the Jews. For there were that said, 'We, our sons, and our daughters, are many: therefore we take up corn for them, that we may eat, and live.' Some also there were that said, 'We have mortgaged our lands, …

"Also, thou son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their minds, their sons and their daughters, that he that escapeth in that day shall come unto thee, to cause thee …
