Good morning. We are back in Psalms: it is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man. Of course that is what we should do in times like these. Sometimes men can help, but disaster can still overtake us. Even when we are OK physically, we're not really OK, if we are not taking refuge in the Lord. I shall not die, but live (reminds me of the song we sometimes sing "I will live I will not die") and tell of the works of the Lord. Just what we should be doing every day. And then talks about the stone which the builders rejected and became the chief cornerstone. This is the day which the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it! No matter what happens we should be glad and rejoice in it. Oh Lord, do save, do send prosperity! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord. Now we are at Psalm 119 – a whole lot of verses. But don't worry – we're not doing them all today . How blessed are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the Lord. You want your way to be blameless – walk in the word of God. Sadly too many Christians don't want their way to be blameless. And: how blessed are those who observe His testimonies, who seek Him with all their heart. We are always blessed in what we do, when we do the word of God. Remember: when we seek Him, He will let us find Him. Too many do not seek Him – they seek their own welfare. And: they also do no unrighteousness; they walk in His ways. Observe His word; seek Him with all your heart; then you will do no unrighteousness and will walk in His ways. Father thank You that the reader’s way is blameless. He/she walks in Your word. He/she seeks You with all of his/her heart. He/she takes refuge in You, and is blessed in all that he/she does!

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...
