"Cleanse your hands, ye sinners, and purge your hearts, ye double minded. Be afflicted, and sorrow ye, and weep: let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy into heaviness. Cast down yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up."
Ja 4
Thought for Today: Wednesday September 03
John Knox spent much time in prayer, and the church in Scotland burst into new life. John Wesley prayed long and often, and the Methodist movement was born. Martin Luther prayed earnestly, and the Reformation exploded across Europe. SO, why was prayer so important to these men? Because they knew they were up against almost overwhelming forces of spiritual opposition… YHVH desires that we believers be concerned and burdened for a lost world. If we pray this kind of prayer, an era of peace may come to the world and wickedness may be turned back. “The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avail much” (James 5:16)

The law about divorce and remarriage in Deuteronomy 24:1-4 is not a prophetic pattern of God and Israel. On the surface, it sounds like it could be, but when you examine the details, this idea falls completely apart.

Israel began as a nation of shepherds. As Samuel and Keila Wearp explain, Abraham was a shepherd, as were David and Deborah. It shouldn’t be a surprise that shepherds are still important in Israel today as the Jewish people reclaim the land God gave them. What may be surprising is who these shepherds are, and the importance of their work for the future of Israel. That’s an important part of this second part of our conversation about the Wearps’ Sheep Shearing expedition with their ministry, Rising Sparks.
The restoration of Israel is a work in progress, which means the final redemption of Israel and the whole world is still a work in progress. Barry Phillips and David Jones have a few thoughts about how God is proceeding with that work, and the way He invites us all to participate. That’s the topic not only of their midrash, “Stones, Children, and Builders,” but also of the music shared by Samuel and Benjamin Wearp and the Exodus Road Band.

Like one who takes a dog by the ears is a passer-by who meddles in a quarrel not his own.
Proverbs 26:17 TLV
If nobody is in serious danger, mind your own business. You're more likely to get hurt yourself than to solve any real problems by intervening in the quarrels of strangers. Of course, if the dog is about to attack someone, then stop it if you can. Just make sure you are prepared for whatever comes next.
The Bible is for daily bread -- not cake for special occasions! Blessings everyone.
You yourselves know what happened throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism that John proclaimed: how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
Acts 10:37-38 ESV
Many who say that Yeshua cannot be God because verses like this say that God anointed or spoke to Yeshua will also say that the Holy Spirit is God, yet here God anoints the Son with the Spirit, speaking as if all three are separate. All three present and interacting with each other, and all three are God.
The wording is hard to understand because God himself is hard to understand, but it's really not much different than how a single human being works.
