Thoughts From My Morning Quiet Time


Reading through Genesis this morning, it just struck me, the first ever mega apartment complex was probably the Ark. think about it. After the flood, and when all the animals were released, Noah had a nice huge place fir all his children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and great great grandchildren and their families to live.

Things like this pop into my hard as I read. This is the third time I have started reading the Bible this year. I finished it twice, and with a Month left in the year I am blessed to be able to read Genesis and Matthew 3 times this year.

Proverb 30 Who Ascended or Descended?



Proverb 30 (NKJV)
by Chuck Ness

The proverb asks if you know the name of the One who Who ascended to and descended from heaven, the One gathered the wind in His fists, the One who bound the waters into a garment, the One who established all the ends of the earth. It asks if you know the name of Him, or His Son's name. Some 900 years before Jesus was born, Solomon knew that God's Son would appear on earth. A prophecy bound up in a proverb. Long before the Pharisees would accuse Him of equating Himself with God, Solomon knew God's Son who would descend from heaven.

We are drawing close to the End of Times, and there is absolutely nothing more important in life than being born again of the Spirit of God; to know that you are saved from eternal death and judgment and that you have an assurance that you are going to heaven because you have been born into His family, into His Kingdom; to be set free from the burden of sin, and be able to experience God's forgiveness, peace and power. 

This has all been freely provided by an unmerited grace through the atoning sacrifice on Calvary of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. This is the Gospel that was proclaimed by the angels at His birth some 900 years after Agur was moved by the Spirit of God to ask us if we know what His name is. It has since been preached throughout the entire world.
