Psalm 23

“MANASSEH AND EPHRAIM” The Egyptian children of Joseph were given two tribes among the children of Israel, and their tribes were known to be the tribe of Manasseh and Ephraim (Genesis 13:8, 11). These tribes became leaders among the Hebrews and Jewish communities. Moses was able to select two people from each tribe of the Egyptian sons of Joseph to spy the land of Canaan (Numbers 13:1-2,8,11,16). Manasseh was given his father's place, he took over the tribe of Joseph which was among the twelve…

God will strengthen you and bless you beyond measure if you have sought Him during this time. He will be more than enough for you and your spouse during this stage and every stage of life….:) Psalm 23:1-4 The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3 he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley…

The world was created by who? Science, God or its self? All these questions are asked everyday by people who do not want to believe there is a magnificent being up in heaven. I would not say I never thought exactly like the way these people think but because of my encounter with the God, I am able to believe there is a supreme being. According to the biblical view, God is the creator of all things here and is to come. The animals, tress, sunlight, darkness, and most importantly humans. (Genesis…

rhetorical situation the death, blood and despair to honoring a great land and making himself relatable. His tone and words were so powerful the people could foresee and visualize a better future one with rectification. Finally when Bush recites the psalms 23 he solidified himself in the hearts of all those who lost their husband, mother, neighbor or colleague and used religion as a commonality among all to incite compassion but also fight for all those who…

Esau was a hunter and Jacob was a cultivator, a grower, a shepherd. Esau was a one day man while Jacob savoured the best out of what today holds and prepares to confront the future with hope. As a farmer who clears the bush, tills the ground, plants the seed on the prepared soil, weeds the grounds and painstakingly watches and waits until his labour is due for harvesting before setting forth the sickle to gather into his barns so was Jacob who could conceive and walk through his goals…

rights as any other human being? It brought me to a scripture in the bible at Psalms 139:15-16. It reads there, 15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. 16 Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. http://www.biblestudytools.com/psalms/passage/?q=psalms+139:15-16 If an individual believes in the bible and that God inspired it,…

Stewardship To stewardship means to take care of something, supervising and different things like that. The catholic church teaches you to take care of others and supervise others like they are your family. In the bible there are many different stories that teach you about stewardship but two of them are, 1 In the end, everything has been entrusted to our protection and all of us be responsible for it. Be protectors of God's gifts Joshua 1.9 I think this means that God helps us with lots…

petals into a swarm, rendering mirrors useless. This heart is a frog, and God invented both boiling and proverbs. But what blame can be assigned for creation, for states of matter? No, one cannot hate God for trying to erase the pain of existence. But Psalm 23 has no effect on me because yea, as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I know that He created the valley, and, in His sovereign ty, led me to it. Yet I will never be Ivan Karamazov — I am not nearly as selfless. But I feel…

most would rather expunge from their memory. A horn represents a seat of power and authority in scripture (1 Samuel 2:1; 1 Samuel 16:1 1 Samuel 16:13 ; 1 Kings 1:39 ; 22:11 ; Joshua 6:4 Joshua 6:5 ; Psalms 75:5 Psalms 75:10 ; 132:17 ; Luke 1:69) as do hands (Joshua 8:20; Judges 1:35; Psalms 76:5; Psalms 89:48; 2 Kings 3:15; Exodus 14:31; Deuteronomy 34:12). The horn symbolizes a position of power. Hands symbolize the administration and execution of that power. The smallness of Trump’s hands is…

Attributes of God Discussion The two groups discussed in Packer’s Knowing God are the incommunicable and communicable groups of God’s attributes. In the incommunicable group is a short list of God’s attributes consisting of His immutability, His infinity, His omnipotence, His omniscient, His omnipresence, His sovereignty, His transcendence, His eternal and immanent attributes.
