How do you know something is real if you can’t see it or feel it or hear it smell it or taste it? Psalm 34:8, “Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!” David uses a word here that can mean taste but it is better defined as perceive, to absorb all of the evidence. When we use all of the senses we are designed with, the conclusion is our Creator is very real and very good.

Lily Portion for Today

Even though your children and husbands may know the whole Bible by heart and have the words of prophets at their fingertips, of what use would that be without God’s Love and Grace? (Prayer: Your Highness, thank You that we can tackle life in the conviction that we are in Your loving care. Our desire is to abide in You because that is where we find our strength, amen.)

I don't believe in "Bible roulette" where you flip open the Bible, stick your finger on a page and that is then the verse you believe Father is giving you for the day.

I know that the odds are slim, but you might just land on the verse that says "And Judas went out and hung himself"... ?

What I do believe in, and this is true in my own life, is that I read the Bible systematically and during my prayer I ask Father to show me in my reading what He wants to show me for this day.

Lo and behold, today's reading started on John 16 where Yeshua is telling His disciples that He is going back to Father and will then send the Comforter.

16:8 "And He, when He comes, will convict the world about sin, and about righteousness, and about judgment:"

My current understanding is that:

1. Before this time Father gave people dream, visions, sent angels and spoke to them directly.
2. We then have a period (which we are living in now) where the Spirit leads us.
3. That then gets followed in the last days where people have dreams again and see visions in addition to the Spirit leading us.

Firstly, does "guiding" mean "speaking"? So, should we be expecting a still small voice speaking to us or just our consciousness being more sensitive?

If we are expecting a voice, how do we distinguish between the Spirit speaking to us and our own consciousness?

Thought for Today: Tuesday February 13

I think the reason we sometimes have the false sense that Elohiym is so far away is because that is where we have put Him. We have kept Him at a distance, and then when we are in need and call on Him in prayer, we wonder where He is. He is exactly where we left Him.

Sh’moth 25:31-26:14
“And you shall make a lampstand of clean gold – the lampstand is made of beaten work. Its base and its shaft, its cups, its ornamental knobs and blossoms are from it, and six branches shall come out of its sides: three branches of the lampstand out of one side, and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side; three cups made like almond flowers on one branch, with ornamental knob and blossom, and three cups made like almond flowers on the other branch, with ornamental knob and blossom – so for the six branches coming out of the lampstand.
“And on the lampstand itself are four cups made like almond flowers, with ornamental knob and blossom, and a knob under the first two branches of the same, and a knob under the second two branches of the same, and a knob under the third two branches of the same, according to the six branches coming out of the lampstand.
“Their knobs and their branches are of the same – all of it one beaten work of clean gold.
“And you shall make seven lamps for it, and they shall mount its lamps so that they give light in front of it.
“And its snuffers and their trays are of clean gold.
“It is made of a talent of clean gold, with all these utensils.
“So see, and do according to the pattern which was shown to you on the mountain.
“And make the Dwelling Place with ten curtains of fine woven linen and blue and purple and scarlet material. Make them, with keruḇim, the work of a skilled workman.
“The length of each curtain is twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits, all the curtains having one measure.
“Five curtains are joined to each other, and five curtains are joined to each other.
“And you shall make loops of blue on the edge of the end curtain on one set, and do the same on the edge of the end curtain of the second set.
“Make fifty loops in the one curtain and make fifty loops on the edge of the end curtain of the second set, the loops being opposite to each other.
“And you shall make fifty hooks of gold, and shall join the curtains together with the hooks, and the Dwelling Place shall be one.
“And you shall make curtains of goats’ hair, for a tent over the Dwelling Place, make eleven curtains.
“The length of each curtain is thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits, one measure to the eleven curtains.
“And you shall join the five curtains by themselves, and the six curtains by themselves, and you shall double over the six curtains at the front of the Tent.
“And you shall make fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in one set, and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain of the second set.
“And you shall make fifty bronze hooks, and put the hooks into the loops, and join the tent together, and it shall be one.
“And the overlapping part of the rest of the curtains of the Tent, the half curtain that remains, shall hang over the back of the Dwelling Place.
“And a cubit on one side and a cubit on the other side, of what remains of the length of the curtains of the Tent, is to hang over the sides of the Dwelling Place, on this side and on that side, to cover it.
“And you shall make a covering of ram skins dyed red for the Tent, and a covering of fine leather above that.

Tehillah 82 – Day 3 (Yom Shlishy)
Elohim stands in the congregation of Ěl; He judges in the midst of the elohim.
How long would you judge perversely, And show partiality to the wrong? Selah.
Give judgment to the poor and fatherless, Do right to the afflicted and needy.
Rescue the poor and needy; Deliver them from the hand of the wrong.
They do not know, nor do they understand, They walk about in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
I, I said, “You are elohim, And all of you are sons of the Most High.
“But as men you die, And fall as one of the heads.”
Arise, O Elohim, judge the earth, For You shall possess all the nations.
