2024, Hebrews, Joshua, Questions

Rehab, the Harlot

Leave a comment

Good morning. 

We are in Joshua this morning.

Be strong and courageous said The LORD to Joshua. 

Verse 5 is a promise: 5 No one shall stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so will I be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.

Wouldn’t you like a promise like that? Can you think of a similar New Testament promise, by the way, the Old Testament promise is still valid.   Hebrews 13:5

Do you think the promise of verse 5 helped Joshua to be strong and courageous? Do you have verses of Scripture memorized that help you to be strong and courageous?

Chapter 2 of Joshua opens with Rehab welcoming the Spies and the Spies have no names.
Actually, I am certain they do have names but their names are not recorded for us.  Our names don’t have to be known for GOD to do great work, do they? 

Rehab, the harlot, that’s the name she is known by, but what I remember about Rehab is who she became when she believed GOD. 
Who could we become if we would just believe GOD? 

Until Next time, Holy hugs, Kathie

Descriptive Words

The people and reasons to pray are many this morning, every morning, and all day.
We are a needy people – the People of GOD.
Others are too but tragically and sadly they don’t know where they can get real and lasting help. I want them to know.
And yet that is not why I came here today.

I came to talk about comfort and correction.
I came because I have prayed for comfort and correction this morning; for me and others.
Comfort because this mortal life is hard and correction because I am flawed enough to make it harder — I need correction.
With opened eyes, I see I am not the only one. All of us mortals need correction – the saved and the lost of us.

So that was my prayer, (is my prayer) Father, please correct us. Please rid us of all the dross in our day-to-day mortality that hinders us from . . . from basking in all that is holy and good.

What descriptive words! refine-silver-gold-1024x1024-2161187127

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 5 For just as the sufferings of Christ are ours in abundance, so also our comfort is abundant through Christ.  2 Corinthians 1 

Until we meet again,

Holy hugs, Kathie

Overcast

Leave a comment

It’s mid-week, Wednesday, specifically.  Powerful-Wednesday-Prayers-and-Blessings-2693900952

Here in Lower Alabama, it’s 64 degrees and partly cloudy, my Momma used to say it’s Overcast on days like this. I like that.  I miss my Momma. She departed this mortal life on January 31, 2009.  I am hoping when I see her again, she will be pleased with how I turned out in her absence.  March is a month with birthdays and anniversaries that draw my thoughts to eternity.
Do you have months like that? And is that eternity one of LIFE? I hope so.
And if it is not, it is my earnest desire that The FATHER will seek you out and you will surrender to LIFE, refusing eternal death. I phrased it that way because people seem to be taken with the mistaken idea that one can get saved anytime, just say a little prayer, and boom you have your one-time purchase of your own personal fire insurance policy.  Do you know that is not Biblical?

John 6: 44 For no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them to me, and at the last day I will raise them up.

There’s more.

36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.

37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.

40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

I think that is all I came to say — Biblical Conversations — I hope this counts as one.
