Dear Brothers, Sisters, Prodigals and Unsaved,
We started a
study, to list what's important in Scripture to LEARN. We're starting in Matthew chapter 1 which is basically the Genealogy of Jesus Christ.
If you're interested about who came from whom, this is the place for you
to start reading. We're coding our study
with; Goodness of God, Healings, Casting out demons, various
Manifestations/dreams/visions, Prophecy, Parables and Lessons we're to learn
from.
To see the Goodness of God, watch "Wonders Of God" and His creation it's only 1 hr 25 min but it really
shows that God created HIS BEST for His Children to live in, go to: https://tubitv.com/movies/452964/god_of_wonders. We see it everyday, yet take most of it for granted.
Down the road,
when we finish the Matthew study, I'll list how Jesus healed the sick. His way is always the best. But to start, I'm going to share with you
what Jesus said that WE NEED TO LEARN and USE in our daily lives.
MATTHEW CHAPTER 2
VERSE
1-2 Man
[humans] usually watch out for themselves or their family first. But we should follow Jesus - NOT
MAN.
Man did not come to give life and
that more abundantly - ONLY JESUS DID! [John 10:10]
"Abundant life" refers to life in its
abounding fullness of joy and strength for mind, body, and soul.
"Abundant life" signifies a contrast to feelings of lack, emptiness,
and dissatisfaction, and such feelings may motivate a person to seek for the
meaning of life and a change in their life."
3-4 Never
trust a man who has great authority - bless them and say little. king
Herod was so troubled after the wise men told him they were looking for baby
Jesus, who would be the King of Kings, that Herod called his chief priests,
scribes and people together seeing if they new anything about Jesus coming or
the Star of Bethlehem. Man does not have the answers or
instructions we need to overcome, or to receive God's blessings. Only the Word does.
5-6 They
found the prophecy in Mica 5:2
written about the birth of Jesus - just goes to show you if you seek, you will
find and that God did not hide anything from man. It's all in the Bible - amazing
that God told us what was in the beginning and will be in the end.
7-10 It
pays to keep in mind the prophecies in the Bible, you never know where they
will lead you to. Some are for; yesterday, today and in the latter days [NOW].
11-12 The
Magi came to their house, seeing Mary, Joseph and young Jesus, [estimated 1-2
years old] They fell to the ground and
worshiped Him. The 3 gifts given were; Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh. It's a good thing they were very costly -
you'll find out later.
Also, it's a
good thing the Magi were listening to God, because He warned them not to go
back the way they came, so Herod would not be able to locate Jesus. God was protecting His Only Son, Jesus from Herod.
16-18 When
Herod realized the Magi did not return, he was enraged. Never make a decision when you're angry - it
will never work. Herod had ALL the male
children in Bethlehem from 2 years
and under killed, hoping to kill Jesus so Herod could remain king. Then the Prophecy of Jeremiah 31:15 was fulfilled.
22-23 Joseph
was told by an angel, that Herod was dead and to bring his family back to Israel . But when Joseph heard Herod's son was ruling,
Joseph feared to live there - for he knew the hate Herod had for Jesus. When an
angel talks tells you to do something, Verify it's from God, THEN DO IT IMMEDIATELY!
NOTE: Dreams
and visions are not always easily interpreted, but you can always ask the Holy
Spirit if it's from God or the twerp.
Since the twerp [satan] wants to be god, he has copied God's ways,
[perverted of course] so be sure to test any angel or dream that comes to you -
ask any angel, if Jesus came in the flesh - they will always say NO. For dreams,
get the Holy Spirit to confirm. [1 John
4:1-6]
That's the end of Chapter
2 - Lessons.
As usual, I'll
close with a prayer:
Father, in Jesus'
Name I ask that anyone seeking You will and that the Holy Spirit will give them the
understanding they need to fulfill their ministry You've called them to. In Jesus' Name - AMEN! and AMEN!
Blessing to ALL - Sandy F. - The Lord's Servant
