    lessons learned from 1 Kings 1:1-31 and Matt 8:1-9:18

    1 KINGS 1:1-31 This tells the sad story of a father who failed to discipline his sons, and old King David reaped the whirlwind. Adonijah (which means YHVH is my master), if it were so, He would have been in subjection to his father David, had the nerve to proclaim himself king, even before...

    "Having a wingnut snack" (a memory from eons ago)

    2 Kings 4:1-37 and Matt 6:1-7:29

    2 KINGS 4:1-37 Here, Elisha Ha Navi (the Prophet) ministers to a Shunamite woman, as some prophets had a public ministry, Elisha had more of a private ministry, ministering to individuals more than to the general public as a whole. Yeshua did both; he ministered to the sick, the hurting...

    Understanding Genesis 18:1-22:24

    “VaYERA” (and he appeared) GENESIS 18:1-22:24 YHVH appears to Abraham at his tent, yet it also says that “three” men appeared to him. He addresses them as LORD (YHVH), how is that? One can only wonder. Could one of them be YHVH incarnate and the other two ministering angels? We might see a...

    A LOOK AT DEUTERONOMY 31:1-30 "MOSES' LAST BIRTHDAY"

    DEUT 31:1-30 “I am 120 years old today,” starts Moshe, “I can no more go out and come in…” Interestingly, he mentions his age, 120 years old. Guess the day he spoke to his people was his last birthday. He would complete 120 years on earth and give up the ghost. We can divide 120 years into 3...

    Can God, at times, seem too far away? (Isaiah 55:6-56:8)

    ISAIAH 55:6-56:8 “Seek YHVH while he may be found, call upon him while he is near” But we ask ourselves, is there a time when he can NOT be found? Or when he is NOT near? One answer would be “at the time of death” if a person has not reconciled himself or herself with God through Yeshua...
