14 The fortress will be abandoned, the noisy city deserted; citadel and watchtower will become a wasteland forever, the delight of donkeys, a pasture for flocks, 15 till the Spirit is poured on us from on high, and the desert becomes a fertile field, and the fertile field seems like a forest. 16 The Lord’s justice will dwell in the desert, his righteousness […]
Your days of asking, “Will this be on the test?” so that you can decide what to invest your energy in may be over. Now, the test may be that you weren’t ready for that person you could have offered blessing to if you had prepared. It may be that you don’t see the test or the score until the […]
Yahweh told Abraham that he would have a son. Many years went by. Being very smart, Sarah knew that it was not possible for her to have the promised son, so she thought up a way that it was possible – Hagar could bear the son, and Sarah could raise it. When the promise was finally realized, and Sarah herself bore […]
Who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is the One who died, but even more, has been raised; He also is at the right hand of God and intercedes for us. Romans 8:34 In the same way the Spirit also joins to help in our weakness, because we do not know what to pray for as we should, […]
Matthew 5:14-16 “You are the light of the world. A city situated on a hill cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and puts it under a basket, but rather on a lamp stand, and it gives light for all who are in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, so that they may […]

PSALM 146 Hallelujah! Praise Yahweh, my soul! I mean to praise Yahweh all my life, I mean to sing to my God as long as I live. Do not put your trust in men in power, or in any mortal man – he cannot save, he yields his breath and goes back to the earth he came from, and on […]
Matthew 11:7-14 7 As they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind? 8 But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses. 9 But what did […]
Every believer thinks that they have the tares identified: it’s those people whose doctrine is wrong. They aren’t saved. Everybody thinks they have revelation about what Paul’s “thorn in the flesh” was: it’s whatever is tormenting them relentlessly. John said that there were already “many antichrists,” so it is probably ok for everyone to disagree about who THE antiChrist is […]
John 7:14-19 14 When the festival was already half over, Jesus went up into the temple complex and began to teach. 15 Then the Jews were amazed and said, “How does He know the Scriptures, since He hasn’t been trained?” 16 Jesus answered them, “My teaching isn’t Mine but is from the One who sent Me. 17 If anyone wants […]
