Obediah 1:10 Because of violence to your brother^* Jacob,

disgrace will cover you,you will be done away with forever! 11 On the day you stood by,the day strangers carried off his possessions,And foreigners entered his gates

and cast lots for Jerusalem,you too were like one of them.^* 12^* Do not gloat over the day of your brother,the day of his disaster;

Do not exult over the people of Judah

on the day of their ruin;Do not speak haughtily

on the day of distress! 13Do not enter the gate of my people

on the day of their calamity;Do not gloat—especially you—over his misfortune

on the day of his calamity;Do not lay hands upon his possessions

on the day of his calamity! 14Do not stand at the crossroadsto cut down his survivors;Do not hand over his fugitives

on the day of distress!  15 Near is the day of the LORD

against all the nations!As you have done, so will it be done to you,

your conduct will come back upon your own head; 20Maccabees 7:20

Most admirable and worthy of everlasting remembrance was the mother who, seeing her seven sons perish in a single day, bore it courageously because of her hope in the Lord.21Filled with a noble spirit that stirred her womanly reason with manly emotion, she exhorted each of them in the language of their ancestors with these words:22 “I do not know how you came to be in my womb; it was not I who gave you breath and life, nor was it I who arranged the elements you are made of.23Therefore, since it is the Creator of the universe who shaped the beginning of humankind and brought about the origin of everything, he, in his mercy, will give you back both breath and life, because you now disregard yourselves for the sake of his law.”

24Antiochus, suspecting insult in her words, thought he was being ridiculed. As the youngest brother was still alive, the king appealed to him, not with mere words, but with promises on oath, to make him rich and happy if he would abandon his ancestral customs: he would make him his Friend and entrust him with high office.25When the youth paid no attention to him at all, the king appealed to the mother, urging her to advise her boy to save his life.  Sirach 4:30 Be not as a lion in thy house, nor frantick among thy servants.

31 Let not thine hand be stretched out to receive, and shut when thou shouldest repay.Revelation 4:4 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. 

It's been a while

                                                                    

Matthew 7:1 "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 

2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. 

3 "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 

4 How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 

25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.

. Mark 9:

18 Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He f

oams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive out the spirit, but they could not." 

19 "O unbelieving generation," Jesus replied, "how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me." 

20 So they brought him. When the spirit saw Jesus, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth. 

21 Jesus asked the boy's father, "How long has he been like this?" "From childhood," he answered.

 

22"It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him. But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us." 

 Luke 3:

12Tax collectors also came to be baptized. "Teacher," they asked, "what should we do?" 

13 "Don't collect any more than you are required to," he told them. 

14 Then some soldiers asked him, "And what should we do?" He replied, "Don't extort money and don't accuse people falsely--be content with your pay."

 John 2:

2 and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. 

3 When the wine was gone, Jesus' mother said to him, "They have no more wine." 

4 "Dear woman, why do you involve me?" Jesus replied. "My time has not yet come." 

5His mother said to the servants, "Do whatever he tells you." 

6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons. 

7 Jesus said to the servants,"Fill the jars with water"; so they filled them to the brim. 

8 Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet." They did so, 

9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 

10 and said, "Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now." 

 

Acts 4:31 

31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly. Romans  7:4

 So, my brothers, you also died to the lawthrough the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God. 

1 corinthians 2:13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. Upon receipt of donation, A special pray cloth for you and your family will be sent for Daily Devotionals and Bible Study with Defender Notes.

Mark 2:27 Then he said to them, "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. 23 One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. 25 He answered, "Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need? 22 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, he pours new wine into new wineskins."19 Jesus answered, "How can the guests of the bridegroom fast while he is with them? They cannot, so long as they have him with them

.15 While Jesus was having dinner at Levi's house, many tax collectors and "sinners" were eating with him and his disciples, for there were many who followed him. 13 Once again Jesus went out beside the lake. A large crowd came to him, and he began to teach them. 9Which is easier: to say to the paralytic, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up, take your mat and walk'?17 On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven."

 Mark 4:10 When he was alone, the Twelve and the others around him asked him about the parables.  14 The farmer sows the word.2 He taught them many things by parables, and in his teaching said: 18 Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word; 22 For whatever is hidden is meant to be disclosed, and whatever is concealed is meant to be brought out into the open.34He did not say anything to them without using a parable. But when he was alone with his own disciples, he explained everything. 40 He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?" 27 Night and day, whether he sleeps or gets up, the seed sprouts and grows, though he does not know how.

Psalms 74:6 They smashed all the carvedpaneling with their axes and hatchets. 20 Have regard for your covenant, because haunts of violence fill the dark places of the land. 16 The day is yours, and yours also the night; you established the sun and moon. 21 Do not let the oppressed retreat in disgrace; may the poor and needy praise your name. Upon receipt of donation, A special pray cloth for you and your family will be sent for Daily Devotionals and Bible Study with Defender Notes.

 Collosians 4:17 Tell Archippus: "See to it that you complete the work you have received in the Lord."  4 Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. 16 After this letter has been read to you, see that it is also read in the church of the Laodiceans and that you in turn read the letter from Laodicea. 

Hebrews 4:4 For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: "And on the seventh day God rested from all his work." 7 Therefore God again set a certain day, calling it Today, when a long time later he spoke through David, as was said before: "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts." 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin.

1 Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it. John 7:7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify that what it does is evil. 16 Jesus answered,"My teaching is not my own. It comes from him who sent me. 26Here he is, speaking publicly, and they are not saying a word to him. Have the authorities really concluded that he is the Christ ? 4 No one who wants to become a public figure acts in secret. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world." 

John 3:18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned,but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.23 Now John also was baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because there was plenty of water, and people were constantly coming to be baptized.36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him." 7 You should not be surprised at my saying, 'Youmust be born again.' 

5 Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. 

. 

6Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 

3 In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again."Job 4:18 If God places no trust in his servants, if he charges his angels with error, 10 The lions may roarand growl, yet the teeth of the great lions are broken. 8 As I have observed, those who plow evil and those who sow trouble reap it. 

5 But now trouble comes to you, and you are discouraged; it strikes you, and you are dismayed.

                             Psalms 78:52

But he brought his people out like a flock; e a flock; he led them like sheep through the desert. 

62 He gave his people over to the sword; he was very angry with his inheritance. 42 They did not remember his power-- the day he redeemed them from the oppressor, 32 In spite of all this, they kept on sinning; in spite of his wonders, they did not believe. 

72 And David shepherded them with integrity of heart; with skillful hands he led them. Luke 22:

70 They all asked, "Are you then the Son of God?" He replied,"You are right in saying I am." 

71 Then they said, "Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his own lips."

 

22 The Son of Man will go as it has been decreed, but woe to that man who betrays him." 52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard, and the elders, who had come for him, "Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come with swords and clubs? 62 And he went outside and wept bitterly. 40 On reaching the place, he said to them, "Pray that you will not fall into temptation." 32 But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers." 

 Psalms 52:

8 But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love for ever and ever. 

9 I will praise you forever for what you have done; in your name I will hope, for your name is good. I will praise you in the presence of your saints. 

 Psalms 57:

2 I cry out to God Most High, to God, who fulfills [his purpose] for me. 1 Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me, for in you my soul takes refuge. I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed. 10 For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Psalms 59:9 O my Strength, I watch for you; you, O God, are my fortress,  2 Deliver me from evildoers and save me from bloodthirsty men.

 Psalms 72: 19 Praise be to his glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and Amen.  10 The kings of Tarshish and of distant shores will bring tribute to him; the kings of Sheba and Seba will present him gifts. 7 In his days the righteous will flourish; prosperity will abound till the moon is no more. 3 The mountains will bring prosperity to the people, the hills the fruit of righteousness. Psalms 27:1 The LORD is my light and my salvation-- whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life-- of whom shall I be afraid? Upon receipt of donation, A special pray cloth for you and your family will be sent for Daily Devotionals and Bible Study with Defender Notes.

1 Thessalonians  4:7 For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. 1 Thessalonians 2:

 

9 Surely you remember, brothers, our toil and hardship; we worked night and day in order not to be a burden to anyone while we preached the gospel of God to you. 

20 Indeed, you are our glory and joy.3 For the appeal we make does not spring from error or impure motives, nor are we trying to trick you.

 2 Thessalonians 3:

 

12 Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the bread they eat. 

9 We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to make ourselves a model for you to follow. 4 We have confidence in the Lord that you are doing and will continue to do the things we command. 5 May the Lord direct your hearts into God's love and Christ's perseverance.

 2 Thessalonians 2 :9 The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, 

 

14 He called you to this through our gospel, that you might share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

3 Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for [that day will not come] until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. 

 

5 Don't you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? 

Psalms 129:8 

May those who pass by not say, "The blessing of the LORD be upon you; we bless you in the name of the LORD." 

 

2 they have greatly oppressed me from my youth, but they have not gained the victory over me. 

4 But the LORD is righteous; he has cut me free from the cords of the wicked. Psalms 136:

 

5 who by his understanding made the heavens, "His love endures forever." 

20 and Og king of Bashan-- "His love endures forever."16 to him who led his people through the desert, "His love endures forever."

2 Give thanks to the God of gods. "His love endures forever."  

Proverbs 26:17 Like one who seizes a dog by the ears is a passer-by who meddles in a quarrel not his own.

13 The sluggard says, "There is a lion in the road, a fierce lion roaming the streets!" 2 Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow, an undeserved curse does not come to rest. Upon receipt of donation, A special pray cloth for you and your family will be sent for Daily Devotionals and Bible Study with Defender Notes.
