God’s Appointed Times
Today, May 29th 2020 is the 1st day of Pentecost. I said the 1st day of Shavuot/Pentecost because most Jewish holidays are celebrated for 2 days. The reason for celebrating them for 2 days is because when the tribes of Israel were "dispersed" throughout the world, Diaspora (link), they could not always be certain what … Continue reading God’s Appointed Times
Jesus’ Ascension Was On This Day
I can say with very much certainty that about 2,000 years ago on this very day, Jesus ascended up to heaven right before the eyes of His disciples. It's not some privately imparted revelation I received from our Dear Heavenly Father or by the Holy Spirit. No, Jesus revealed this to me through Himself, His … Continue reading Jesus’ Ascension Was On This Day
Perfect Peace, Even In A Storm
The scripture of the day in YouVersion Bible app today is, Many times just reading the verse of the day doesn't give the context of why or what a verse is relating to so I go to it and read the entire chapter.

Obedience & Faith, But Who’s Faith?
Last November I wrote an eye opening post concerning faith, the God Kind of Faith, NOT the faith the prosperity gospel preachers teach about. The main focus of that post was there is a faith that is generated by our mind for something we want to achieve. Maybe it's for a noble cause but the … Continue reading Obedience & Faith, But Who’s Faith?

Lag B’Omer, 33, And a Plaque
If you have read through my blog very much you know the numbers 3, 33, 333 are of great interest to me. It's why my blog verse is Jeremiah 33:3.

My, My, My
If you are a Christian, you've probably heard that God wants to have a personal relationship with you through His Son, the LORD Jesus Christ.

Keep God’s Bread Pure
The theme of my blog is in the scripture verse in the picture, Jeremiah 33:3, mainly because I began waking up and looking at my digital bedside clock really often at 3:33. It didn't matter if I was working days or nights. One day I told my Dad about it and said, "I wonder if … Continue reading Keep God’s Bread Pure
Social Distancing, God’s Offer To Get Shut In With Him
This morning a scripture from Sunday's devotional reading came to mind. In Leviticus chapter 15 it said this, Leviticus 15:19-30 ‘If a woman has a discharge, and the discharge from her body is blood, she shall be set apart seven days; and whoever touches her shall be unclean until evening. 20 Everything that she lies … Continue reading Social Distancing, God’s Offer To Get Shut In With Him

Isaac, Jesus & Their Bride
All Christians learn very early in their Christian education that when Abraham was told by God to offer Isaac, it was type of Father God offering His Son Jesus, Genesis 22:1-2 Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” 2 … Continue reading Isaac, Jesus & Their Bride

Meekness, Jesus and Moses Had It
The Book of Zephaniah is not one of the most quoted or referenced from God's Word but it gives us today's scripture of the day. This is a profound Bible verse for many reasons. The last statement is important in being humble and not too presumptive that you have "attained the mark." Paul said, Philippians … Continue reading Meekness, Jesus and Moses Had It
Daysman, Mediator, Goel
Today's Tecarta Bible Verse https://tbibl.es/9iRp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozc1Y9YU9CA There are people who'll tell you the KJV is the only Bible to read.

Doing Bible Things, In Bible Ways
I will try to make this short. What I am about to write is not some magic formula. Actually if you do it without a pure heart and in sincerity towards God's ways, it might work against you.

Fear Not Little Flock!!!
Luke 12:4-7, 27, 29, 31-32 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. 5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; … Continue reading Fear Not Little Flock!!!
153, Sons of God
Because of the number 153 appearing in the text of John 21:6, much intrigue and speculation has been offered as to its hidden meaning. Gematria is the study of the numerical value of words in the Hebrew and Greek language because their letters also serve as their numbers. I have spent many hours looking into … Continue reading 153, Sons of God
