Good morning. Today we're back in Psalms. I will remember my song in the night; I will meditate with my heart; and my spirit ponders. Sometimes with all the troubles around us we forget our song. We feel like we have nothing to sing about. When you do sing despite the troubles, it sets your spirit free. I shall remember the deeds of the Lord; surely I will remember Your wonders of old. We need to remember what God has done for us in the past. He did it before; He will do it again. I will meditate on all Your work, and muse on Your deeds. We need to constantly think about all the good things God has done for us. You are the God who works wonders. If you have a big problem, then you need God to work a wonder. Of course all of our problems seem big to us. All of the things that God has done for us – we will not conceal them from our children, but tell to the generation to come the praises of the Lord, and His strength and wondrous works He has done. How else will our children know what God is done for us if we don't tell them? If God has done it for us, He will do it for them. And we tell our children what God has done for us that they may arise and tell them to their children. It is passed down from generation to generation. Why do we tell them? That they may put their confidence in God and not forget the works of God but keep His commandments. We are responsible to keep it going. Father thank You for all that You have done for the reader, and for all You will do for him/her in the future. Give his/her song back in the night. Remind him/her to tell his/her children and grandchildren all the great things You have done for him/her - that they may put their confidence in You.

Unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God

  Good morning. While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. Jesus was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men. Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. It doesn’t say, but I assume it is still during this time of the Passover. This man came to Jesus by night. Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do the signs that You do unless God is with him. It just said that the people believed in His name because of the signs He was doing; yet it does not say what those signs were. Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. That is why unbelievers cannot tell what is of the kingdom of God and what is not – they’re not born again. Nicodemus doesn’t have a clue. How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born, can he? Unless one is born of water and the Spirit ...

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.

So the other disciple who had first come to the tomb then also entered, and he saw and believed

  Good morning. We left John at the entrance of the tomb, stooping and looking in. “Shy” Peter then arrives following John, and enters the tomb; and he saw the linen wrappings lying there. So the other disciple, John, who had first come to the tomb then also entered, and he saw and believed. It does not say whether or not Peter believed. For as yet they did not understand the scripture, that He must rise again from the dead. So the disciples went away again to their own homes. I’m not exactly sure what it means by their own homes. They were originally from Galilee and would not have had homes in Jerusalem. Perhaps it means the homes where they were staying while in Jerusalem. Apparently, they were not staying in the upper room, or it would have said so. But Mary was standing outside the tomb weeping; and so, as she wept, she stooped (just like John) and looked into the tomb. She saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had been l...
