7th Year 11-12 Edition 3 – Jud 21
l The Feast l
Sep 6_2012 Judges 21
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully Feast in Judges 20. Once again we see mans mouth putting him in direct trouble from the Lord. In their anger they swore not to give their daughters to the men of the tribe of Benjamin. Now that they have made peace with them they cannot give them wives. “16 Then the elders of the congregation said, “What shall we do for wives for those who are left, since the women are destroyed out of Benjamin?” 17 And they said, “There must be an inheritance for the survivors of Benjamin, that a tribe not be blotted out from Israel. 18 Yet we cannot give them wives from our daughters.” For the people of Israel had sworn, “Cursed be he who gives a wife to Benjamin.”” Judges 21:16-18, English Standard Version (ESV). Once again if they had consulted with God prior to taking an oath they may not be against the wall. I've heard men say;”God laughs at the plans of men.” I think God groans when men take an oath instead of consulting Him. “2 If a man vows a vow to the LORD, or swears an oath to bind himself by a pledge, he shall not break his word. He shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.” Numbers 30:2 ESV. God puts great stock in the word of man. Remember God spoke heaven and earth into existence. He continues to tell us not to swear an oath even in the new testament. “But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath, but let your “yes” be yes and your “no” be no, so that you may not fall under condemnation. ” James 5:12 ESV. Jesus died for us once to set us free from sin. God doesn't want us putting ourselves under condemnation. He wants us to continue free of sin and condemnation. Do we continue to appreciate and love Jesus? If the answer is yes take heed;“Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.” John 14:23 ESV. Let's continue to keep the first thing first. That is salvation through the blood of the lamb, Jesus. http://www.admenu.com/am/praise.html. please write mlitew8@yahoo.com.
