Essential Studies.
Exodus 37, Like hammered work
Additional studies: Exodus Index
The trials we suffer in life can have two outcomes for us, and we choose which outcome it is. Being hammered by trials can make us hard-hearted, if we decide that the trials are unfair, and God is unfair to allow them to happen to us. This option shipwrecks our faith. Or, we can submit in humility to God, and seek Him for His wise response to our trials, and strengthen our faith in His goodness and the truth of all that the Bible says of Him. We can become like hammered work in our determination to shine His light to our families, our neighborhoods, our communities, and our world.
Psalm 65, Chiastic structure
Additional studies: Psalms Book Two (42-72) Index
Just as God stills the raging of the sea (Mat 8:26), He also stills the tumult of the peoples. ‘To still’ in Hebrew (Strong’s H7623 שבח shabach) is related to Sabbath rest, and, according to Webster’s, means to allay (the worries of), to calm (the nerves of), to settle (the debate of). The tumult you see in the world today is a temporary state. ♥
1 Corinthians 2, The hidden wisdom of God
Additional studies: Corinthians Index
One characteristic of man’s religions is hidden knowledge, which can only be discovered as someone advances through levels. Paganism, wiccanism, mormonism, gnosticism, masonry, among others, have this characteristic in common. With God, all the facts are up front: He told the end from the beginning (Isa 46:10). All the major doctrines of Christianity are found in the first eleven chapters of Genesis, and all the prophecies of the entire Bible are sitting in plain sight in Torah (History that Prophesies). But the things of God are spiritually discerned, needing the Spirit of God to understand them. The world does not have the Spirit.
