Apr 25th What a great day to read! I hope you sense fear, terror, delight and unexplainable HOPE. Excuse my language, but Ain't GOD great! I suggest you consider taking Psalm 94:16-18 and ponder what is being ask and said and then re-read Judges, Luke and Proverbs for today while asking and answering those questions. It is amazing the connectivity of The Word of GOD as it is written for us today.Be glad! Hope to see you in SS @9:45, read and prayed up ready to testify of His Greatness.

Psalm 94:1-23 Tells us that vengeance belongs unto The LORD and in ALL things we are to be grateful for His mercy and help.How many questions are asked that only The LORD knows the answers?How many attributes, traits, names and characteristics did you discover? Now ask the question that GOD asked of who will rise up, stand up for Him? What will you do sinner for your saviour? What does the title of "Lord Jesus" mean to you? One day all will see The True and Living Lord and it could be today.

Proverbs 14:3-4 How many have we said"I wish I had not said that".Pray not to be foolish and prideful. Be right, do right and trust The LORD.

Luke 22:35-54 How many "snapshots of God in the flesh" did you see?What is your favorite memory of these verses?Read to know Him.Watch for the dependence of Jesus on The Father as it is demonstrated and let these actions cause an effect upon your prayer life and faith. How many people are reported to have "kissed" Jesus? Can you imagine what the chief priest and elders thought they had accomplished when they took Him and led Him to the high priest? What is significant about darkness? This is no surprise to The LORD. It is according to the scriptures. Please recall what you have read in Matthew, Mark and Luke about this time where the will of GOD is being accomplished and Jesus is being man-handled. The next few days we will read about the trial and see the only One to stand up for GOD. How do you know this Jesus?

Judges 4:1-5:31 I suggest you do some math and determine how many years the children were in the wilderness, how many years of "success" under Joshua's leadership and then how many years there has been of freedom versus bondage and we have 16 more chapters to read. How does this affect your concept of GOD? How many people judge GOD by how His children act? The cycle of sin-bondage-repentance-deliverance-prosperity-sin-bondage is very sad. How do you compare the lifesttyle of the chosen people in the Promise Land to your own lifestyle and that of the USA?A very harsh question is asked by Judge Deborah, "Hath not The LORD God of Israel commanded ...", perhaps we might restate this and ask "Who will believe The LORD and serve Him"? How does your reply give glory to GOD?It is very evident that the servant is not greater than the master and what is in the vessel is more important than the vessel. GOD will use men and women to do His will. If there is one who writes music it would be neat to hear Debroahs song. How does this follow the A.C.T.S. of praying? Let us praise God and speak of His great deeds, acts, traits, attributes and promises.

Do you remember what was said in Judges 2:10b"and there arose another generation after them which knew not the LORD, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel". What does that say about the responsibilities of the fathers in Deuteronomy chapters 4 and 6 being FORGOTTEN. Please draw yourself a graph/timeline to put this in view. What we read in a day may very well cover a few days or perhaps 200 years. Now what have you learned about GOD and yourself? Read to know Him. Selah. Amen. pj
