Building Relationships Through God's Love

We welcome July with a repentant heart. There are things happening in this world that are changing the way we see normal. Places are opening with restrictions. Some people are realizing what foolishness is happening.  God is winning battles. Even though it looks like we have certain major losses, God is winning. We are in an amazing time and the world will never be the same again.

​Scripture of the Week: Job 38:4-18   
“Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?
    Tell me, if you have understanding.
5 Who determined its measurements—surely you know!
    Or who stretched the line upon it?
6 On what were its bases sunk,
    or who laid its cornerstone,
7 when the morning stars sang together
    and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

8 “Or who shut in the sea with doors
    when it burst out from the womb,
9 when I made clouds its garment
    and thick darkness its swaddling band,
10 and prescribed limits for it
    and set bars and doors,
11 and said, ‘Thus far shall you come, and no farther,
    and here shall your proud waves be stayed’?

12 “Have you commanded the morning since your days began,
    and caused the dawn to know its place,
13 that it might take hold of the skirts of the earth,
    and the wicked be shaken out of it?
14 It is changed like clay under the seal,
    and its features stand out like a garment.
15 From the wicked their light is withheld,
    and their uplifted arm is broken.

16 “Have you entered into the springs of the sea,
    or walked in the recesses of the deep?
17 Have the gates of death been revealed to you,
    or have you seen the gates of deep darkness?
18 Have you comprehended the expanse of the earth?
    Declare, if you know all this.

Five Golden Rings

12/29/2017

NO not the Olympics. These Five Golden Rings are very significant or they would not have the emphasis in the song that they do. It is not the center but these rings speak the truth and the start of the whole Bible. I am talking of the first five books, the Pentateuch. These are the Five Scrolls of Moses. Genesis provides us with the Creation Story, the Fall, the Flood, the Patriarchs, Joseph and the move to Egypt. That is just the beginning.
The other books tell of the shaping of the Israelite nation and the relationship they had with God. Out of these come The Ten Commandments and the Law of Moses, the Exodus from Egypt, and the lessons learned along the journey into the Promised Land of which Moses never steps foot in. The laws and statutes that govern moral behavior, feasts, sacrifices for sins, and other rituals are found in Leviticus and Deuteronomy. Numbers is just that, probably the largest census ever on record that we still have today.   
We are out of the Festivals and are focused on learning of Jesus and the New Testament Instruction. Yes I know it is a short time but so was the time that Jesus had to spread the Word. His ministry began after He was Baptized and spent the 40 days in the desert and lasted for three years.
What do we do now? We continue in His Commission to us, spreading the Word of God to all nations.
