Good morning. We are back in Psalms. I love the Lord, because He hears my voice and my supplications. We have a God who listens to us. The prophets of Baal whom Elijah faced cried out and cut themselves; but their god did not listen. We do not have to fear that God will turn His back on us. And so "because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore I shall call upon Him as long as I live." If He did it before, He will do it again. Sometimes when things happen, our soul gets upset. However we should say "return to your rest, oh my soul, for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you." Yes sometimes you do have to talk to your soul. After all in Psalm 103 it says bless the Lord O my soul. Our soul should be at rest continually. Why? Because He has rescued my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. First and foremost, He saved our soul. We can take comfort in that. When our eyes were crying from hurt, He turned our mourning into laughter. Because our eyes were filled with tears, our feet stumbled, and He rescued us. I shall walk before the Lord in the land of the living. What shall I render to the Lord for all His benefits toward me? That's a good question. There is nothing we can do to repay Him except to do His will and praise Him. I shall lift up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord. One of the greatest signs of appreciation that we can do for Him is to keep calling on Him. It shows that we trust Him to take care of us. Father thank You for dealing bountifully with the reader. His/her soul can be continually at rest because he/she trusts in You. He/she shall walk before You without his/her feet stumbling. You deal bountifully with him/her and rescued his/her soul from death.

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...
