WORD POWER #2

-







I try to ingest God's Word daily.I do it in many different ways. It's ingested when
I read the scriptures in the Bible, listen 
to my favorite Christian music and songs, and when I pray. This daily goal helps me to stay on the path of righteousness. 



The Word of God is given to us in different context in the Old  and New Testaments. Some of  His Words were meant to bring comfort. There are also times when His Words were spoken   to correct our behavior.

This week I'll share scriptures  about God's Word that were  used to comfort and guide you. 
There will also be Words from
God that cut like a two edged
sword when His people chose
to reject it.









LIFE LESSON:


LIVE BY GOD'S WORD 


NUMBERS  24:16

The utterance of him who hears the
words of God, And has the knowledge 
of the Most High, Who sees the vision
of the Almighty, Who falls down, with
eyes wide open.


DEUTERONOMY  9:5 

It is not because of your righteousness
or the uprightness of your heart that 
you go in to possess their land, but because of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord your God drives them out from before you, and that 
He may fulfill the word which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
 
DEUTERONOMY 17:19

And it shall be with him, and he shall 
read it all the days of his life, that he
may learn to fear the Lord his God and
be careful to observe all the words of 
this law and these statutes.
 
JOSHUA  3:9 

So Joshua said to the children of Israel, “Come here, and hear the words of the Lord your God.”

JOSHUA 24:26

Then Joshua wrote these words in the Book of the Law of God. And he took a large stone, and set it up there under

the oak that was by the sanctuary of 
the Lord.

DEPICTION OF JONAH RUNNING AWAY FROM THE LORD I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God. The Lord may require  some people to carry out a special task.There will be others that may be required to minister His Word and  travel around the world as a missionary.      This week I'll share scriptures about different men  and women that were called by the Lord. Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I will share scriptures which discuss that the Lord CALLED a man named Jonah.  He did not want to answer the Lord's call and ran away.  There were consequences to Jonah's actions. The Lord's will did prevail. He did go to Nineveh. JONAH 1: 1-4, 6-9, 12, 15-17 1  Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the

DEPICTION OF RAHAB OF JERICHO I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God.

Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I'll share scriptures which show how  a prostitute named  Rahab was used to help  Joshua's spies. Joshua, son of Nun, became  the ruler for the Israelites after Moses died. The Bible also tells us that the Lord is "not a respecter of persons"and accepts all who will respect him. It can be His will to use a harlot (prostitute)

DEPICTION OF ADAM & EVE WITH THEIR CHILDREN I say thank you to PBS for featuring TV shows  on researching your family tree by Heny Louis Gates, Jr.  The show was called, "Finding Your Roots". I enjoyed this show and and eventually became very good at family tree research. Genealogy was important during Bible days and the Bible book of Genesis gives us several family trees. Today I am showing Adam and Eve’s family tree. GENESIS 2: 18, 22-24 18  And the Lord God said, “ It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him. 22  Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. 23  And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.” 24  Therefore a man shall leave h
