ARISE & SEE

-










I am blessed every day! The Lord
allowed me to arise to see a new
day!  I cherish this blessing since
I have a father and a sister that 
have passed away.This is one of
the many reasons that I give do
give the Lord praise daily!
 
Today, I want to share scriptures
that tell us how people in the
Bible arose in various situations. 
Some even arose to follow Jesus!




DEPICTION: ABRAHAM & ISSAC ARISE


LIFE LESSON:

MEN AROSE TO OBEY GOD:


GENESIS 22:3

So Abraham rose early in the morning 
and saddled his donkey,and took two
of his young men with him, and Isaac 
his son; and he split the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to
the place of which God had told him.

DEPICTION: REBEKAH & SERVANT

GENESIS 24:51-54

51 Here is Rebekah before you;
take her and go, and let her be 
your master’s son’s wife, as the 
Lord has spoken.”
52 And it came to pass, when 
Abraham’s servant heard their 
words, that he worshiped the 
Lord, bowing himself to the 
earth.
53 Then the servant brought out 
jewelry of silver, jewelry of gold,
and clothing, and gave them to 
Rebekah. He also gave precious
things to her brother and to her 
mother.
54 And he and the men who were 
with him ate and drank and stayed 
all night.  Then they arose in the 
morning, and he said, “Send me 
away to my master.”




DEPICTION: MOSES WITH STONE TABLET


EXODUS  24:12-13

12 Then the Lord said to Moses, 
“Come up to Me on the mountain
and be there; and I will give you 
tablets of stone, and the law and
commandments which I have written, 
that you may teach them.”
13 So Moses arose with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up to the mountain of God.





DEPICTION: EHUD & THE KING


JUDGES  3:19-20

19 But he himself turned back from
the stone images that were at Gilgal, 
and said, “I have a secret message for you, O king.” He said,“Keep silence!” 
And all who attended him went out 
from him.
20 So Ehud came to him (now he was
sitting upstairs in his cool private chamber). Then Ehud said, “I have 
a message from God for you.” So 
he arose from his seat.


DEPICTION: DEBORAH, A JUDGE



JUDGES  4:9

So she said, “I will surely go with you; nevertheless there will be no glory for
you in the journey you are taking, for
the Lord will sell Sisera into the hand
of a woman.” Then Deborah arose and went with Barak to Kedesh.

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. 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'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
