Hebrews 3

Hebrews 3 I absolutely loved the comparison of Moses being “the house itself” and Jesus being a house builder because anybody can have a house built however not everybody can create what is needed (and all else) to build one… Jesus can do both…If I lost you, let me remind you of my favourite scriptureContinue reading “Hebrews 3”

Hebrews 1

This comparison reminds me of Isaiah 40 where it says the grass withers the, flowers fall but the word of our God endures forever. He has been here since the beginning and will always be here. Prophets come and prophets go. There is no comparison between Jesus, angels and prophets… Angels don’t stand at theContinue reading “Hebrews 1”

2 Chron 27-28

6 “So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before the Lord his God.” This translation kind of dictates to me that he became mighty be because he passed his ideas by God first…like he was ordering things to see if it was available for him…. not just walking into the kitchen and helping himself.Continue reading “2 Chron 27-28”

2 Chron 26 – PrIde

Pride is a Sin and it says so here in Philippians 4:6 “Do not be anxious about anything.” Paul was referring to not straying from the teachings of the gospel and not being God centred due to the anxiety and pressures of discipling and and Hannah prayed in 1 Sam 2:3, “Do not keep talkingContinue reading “2 Chron 26 – PrIde”

2 Chron 16 – Keep Connected

Again.. history repeats itself and Asa doesn’t go to the Lord for aid with regards to going to war for land and property, instead he disconnects, goes elsewhere and even goes so far as taking valuables from the house of the Lord to bribe with… In the end, Ramah gets taken down boulder by boulderContinue reading “2 Chron 16 – Keep Connected”

2nd Chron 15

I remember reading something about fearing the Lord is knowing the Lord …maybe from Isiah 11…. check it. and these people definitely fear the Lord to the point where that they all agreed if they didn’t want to seek Him, they should be put to death…so that was “inspirational” enough to cause 7700 sacrifices/offerings haveContinue reading “2nd Chron 15”

2 Chron 14 – Cleaning House

Well this was clear to me that by having Asa “clean house” and rid Judah of all the idols, false gods and alters, that God would help them in battle…. Apparently that’s exactly what happens, God helped defeat the enemy (as usual) and it sounds like they were defeated even before they arrived.. but notContinue reading “2 Chron 14 – Cleaning House”

2nd Chron 10 – Listen for Wisdom and Lead by Example

Sometime is it nicer to hear what we want to hear rather than what we’re supposed to hear…and sometimes it even makes it seem better for us if what we want to hear is coming from friends. Even if we know that’s really not what we’re supposed to be doing or where we are supposedContinue reading “2nd Chron 10 – Listen for Wisdom and Lead by Example”

2 Chronicles 6

13…..”Then he knelt on his knees in the presence of all the assembly of Israel,” This is true leader ship teaching by example to have the king meal down showing that God is the ultimate king all and everything! 18 “But will God indeed dwell with man on the earth?” YES!!!! hallelujah AMEN. “For God soContinue reading “2 Chronicles 6”

2 Chronicles 2

That’s awesome Todd, thank you. All I noticed besides how much “stuff” that all was is that the Chronicler used a classic writing style which ends with what he began with to confirm information and to possibly remind the reader of the mass numbers that didn’t change from the beginning of the chapter to theContinue reading “2 Chronicles 2”
