Good morning. Today we are in Psalm 91. He who dwells in the shelter of the most high will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. You have to stay close to the Lord to be in His shadow. He is our shelter from the storm. I will say to the Lord, "my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust!" For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper, and from the deadly pestilence. The devil is out to trap us, and he has many people whom he can use to do that. But these traps are not in the shadow of the Almighty. So as long as we stay in His shadow, we will be fine. He also delivers us from the deadly pestilence. No matter how bad things are in the world, we are safe in Him. And once again: He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark. We need to continually stay under His wings. He can't shield us if we're not there. You will not be afraid of the terror by night. There are a lot of terrors in the world. We are not to fear them. It doesn't mean we're not to be cautious, just not fear them. We are also not to fear the arrow that flies by day; or the pestilence that stalks in darkness, or of the destruction that lays waste at noon. That covers about everything. 1000 may fall at your side, and 10,000 at your right hand; but it shall not approach you. Though all around us may be afflicted, we need not fear; for God will protect us as long as we stay underneath His wings. Father thank You for protecting the reader from all harm; that he/she is safe from all the afflictions in the world. He/she is safe under Your wings and in Your shadow.

When considerable time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous, since even the fast was already over, Paul began to admonish them to not continue, because he perceived that not only would there be a loss of the cargo but also of their lives.

  Good morning. When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, they proceeded to deliver Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion. Notice that “we“ returns. Luke has not been mentioned during the entire two years that Paul was at Caesarea. I guess it is safe to assume that he was in the area during this time. We will leave out the names of a bunch of places where they passed. They had sailed for a good many days and began to have trouble with the wind. This was a warning of what was about to happen. When considerable time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous, since even the fast (Day of Atonement) was already over, Paul began to admonish them to not continue, because he perceived that not only would there be a loss of the cargo but also of their lives. The centurion was more persuaded by the pilot and the captain of the ship than by what was being said by Paul. They did not want to get stuck for the winter in the port where they were located. They actually were only g...

And they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pain and their sores; and they did not repent of their deeds

  Good morning. And men repented, right? And they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pain and their sores; and they did not repent of their deeds. The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river, the Euphrates; and the water was dried up, so that the way would be prepared for the kings from the east. Previously, the 6th angel blew his trumpet and told them to release the four angels at the river Euphrates so that the army of 200 million could cross over. Back to the bowl: and I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs; for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great Day of God, the Almighty. Father continue to bring blessings upon the reader and his/her family every day  of their lives.

Good morning. And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, your faith also is vain. That makes sense. Moreover we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we testified against God that He raised Christ, whom He did not raise if in fact the dead are not raised. Is your head beginning to swim? For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised, and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. From what he says later, they must have had great concern about their friends or relatives who were Christians and had died earlier. But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits (The first sheaf of the harvest given to the Lord as a token that all of the harvest belonged to the Lord and would be dedicated to Him) of those who are asleep. Jesus was just the first to be raised from the dead, not the only one. We will see next time that Pa...
