SAVORING THE WORD OF GOD!

-





NOTE: PLEASE OVERLOOK THE FONT
ISSUES; CAN'T GET THEM CORRECTED!


I hear God's Word from my pastor at 
church on Sunday. I also have a few
favorite pastors that I watch on T.V. 
Therefore, I come home and watch 
them on Youtube on Sunday 
afternoon. After all,  you can't get
too much of the Word of  God!


I have noticed a new trend from some 
of the TV ministers' programs. There
are comments on the bottom of the 
screen.  while they are giving their 
sermons.  I dislike this trend. It can 
be distracting for me.  I know it 
only take a few seconds to read
these messages; however, it 
offends me.  I can be informed about
their speaking engagement, donations, 
books, and CDs at the end of 
the program. I am trying to concentrate 
on the sermon so I can understand his 
message. 



Proverbs 1:2


To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;





Lately, some of them interrupt their 
sermons to inform you that they have
written a new book! The title of the
books are often related to their sermons. 
So what, can't it wait!! I am interested 
in their message and sometimes I am
even taking notes. The continuity and
flow of the sermon is broken. 

Most of these T.V. pastors, take the
last few minutes of the program to 
make offers and request donations
and partners anyway. 

I pray these trends prove to be 
unprofitable and they are 
discontinued!


Ecclesiastes 12:9


... the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs.


Ecclesiastes 12:10


The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth.


Matthew 10:7


And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

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)

ADAM & EVE'S FAMILY TREE

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
