Judges 2 What if we all studied our Bibles?

    


 Good morning and welcome to The Daily Bible Challenge, where we read the whole Bible one chapter at a time in context! You see, we believe a more complete understanding of the Bible can only come when it is read/listened to in context! The Old Testament was written to the Jews who escaped slavery in Egypt (really delivered from Egypt by God). Most of us reading this are called Gentiles (other than Jews). God did not replace His love for the Jews with the Gentiles. He added us to them as Sisters and Brothers under a new and different covenant. The Jews are held tightly by God as His chosen people; we are adopted sons and daughters, but for the Jews, it is their birthright! If we accept God’s gift, we are covered by the Blood of Jesus in this new covenant, and are forgiven of our sins through God’s grace and Jesus paying the price for us to be forgiven and therefore allowed into heaven! So there is a bit of context as you read Judges 2 this morning.

 Click the link below to join us in the challenge and become one of the statistical few who have actually read the whole Bible cover to cover! If you have questions or comments about what you read, we are here waiting for your PM/DMs and will help you find the answers you seek!

 My tease for today’s read is: Will these people ever learn? But as I write that, I am convicted of how we Gentiles never seem to learn either, passing on or unbelief generation after generation! Let’s change that now and learn and pass it on!


 Talk with you soon!

Revelation 3 Don't be luke warm!

         Good morning, it is the day so many long for, Saturday at last! For any of you in Israel and other parts of the world, Happy Sabbath to all of you. Although some will think it is untrue, my Sabbath is Sunday, I base this on Mark 2:27, but as my Sundays are filling with church work, I may start Saturday Sabbaths soon! If you are new here, welcome to The Daily Bible Challenge, where we are reading/listening to the whole Bible cover to cover. We aren’t doing this for foolish bragging rights but to learn more about God directly from God, instead of just gossip about God from others! Who knows if those have even read the Bible!     Today we are in the book of Revelation chapter 3. It has a lot to digest, but also has so many new questions for us to research. I will not be your teacher, God and your own heart will do that! I am more here to challenge, entice, and even beg you to read and dig in for yourself. After all, I believe ...

Judges 7 God dealing with the pride of man, through Gideon

Image
 Good morning, we have made it to Wednesday, and all is good! What an incredible God story we have in Today’s Daily Bible Challenge as we read/listen to Judges 7. I can only imagine what Gideon must have been feeling as God took away twenty-two thousand of his soldiers. God did this as Gideon was preparing for a battle in which he was already outnumbered by tens of thousands! But Gideon remained faithful, and then God took it from ten thousand to just three hundred! Would you have argued with God, or maybe even just fled for your life?  Are you wondering why God would have done this? In my youth, I wondered about it too! Through this life, I have struggled foolishly with pride for many years, but God has a way of humbling us! Many years ago, God humbled us in ways that shook our lives to the very core! Then, much later in life, God used a great program called Re/Generation to show me how I still struggled with pride and just how many of my sin patterns were originating out of ...

1st Kings 4 Promises kept, although slower that planned!

    Good morning, I hope this letter finds you and yours well. We are doing well here on The Little Hundred Acre Wood. With two hounds at my feet and a tiny cat in my lap, I write to all of you with great joy in my heart! It has been such a blessing to see this blog grow so much this past year, not for my gain but for God’s glory. Please humor me as I catch up on some details for long-time readers on our project list here on the homestead.   The pressure washing will start here on the house today, and the paint should start Monday if the weather holds up for us. Some of the siding got dirty as this project started over two years ago. (even under a real tarp, dirt crept in). A brother from church has asked to do the work, and he is very experienced with painting with the high-pressure spray type rig I am providing. I have to get another five-gallon pail of paint, a case of caulk, and the trim paint this weekend, and lots of protective covering material for the deck and sto...
