166 Lord, I hope for Your salvation, And I do Your commandments." Psalm 119:166 New King James Version (NKJV).


Dear Saints,
As we continue our Feast by reading the book of Genesis Chapter 49; “Jacob calls his sons to bless them. (1,2) Reuben, Simeon, Levi. (3-7) Judah. (8-12) Zebulun, Issachar, Dan.(13-18) Gad, Asher, Naphtali. (19-21) Joseph and Benjamin. (22-27) Jacob's charge respecting his burial, His death. (28-33)
Verses 1-2 All Jacob's sons were living. ...the tribes which descended from the sons of Jacob, and which may be traced in their histories.
Verses 3-7 Reuben was the first-born; but by gross sin, he forfeited the birthright. ...The sentence as it respects Levi was turned into a blessing. This tribe performed an acceptable service in their zeal against the worshippers of the golden calf, (Exodus 32) . Being set apart to God as priests, they were in that character scattered through the nation of Israel.
Verses 8-12 Judah's name signifies praise. God was praised for him, chap. 29:35 , praised by him, and praised in him; therefore his brethren shall praise him. … ... One," or "Saviour," he shall come of Judah... ...He is the true Vine; wine is the appointed symbol of his blood, which is drink indeed, as shed for sinners, and applied in faith; and all the blessings of his gospel are wine and milk, without money and without price, to which every thirsty soul is welcome. Isa. 55:1.
Verses 13-18 Concerning Zebulun: if prophecy says, Zebulun shall be a haven of ships, be sure Providence will so plant him... ...Concerning Issachar: .., this will make our present services easy... Dan should.., ..."I have waited for thy salvation, O Lord!" The salvation he waited for was Christ, the promised Seed;... ( hebrews 11:13 hebrews 11:14 )... ...It is the comfort of a dying saint thus to have waited for the salvation of the Lord; for then he shall have what he has been waiting for.
Verses 19-21 Concerning Gad, Jacob alludes to his name, which signifies a troop, and foresees the character of that tribe. ...yea, more than conqueror, ( Romans 8:37 ) . Asher should be a rich tribe. ...Naphtali, is a hind let loose. ...Let not those of different tempers and gifts censure or envy one another.
Verses 22-27 The blessing of Joseph is very full. ...Of Benjamin it is said, He shall ravin as a wolf. ...else he would have spoken with more tenderness of his beloved son Benjamin. ...Blessed Paul was of this tribe, (Romans 11:1 , Philippians 3:5 ) ; he, in the morning of his day, devoured the prey as a persecutor, but in the evening divided the spoils as a preacher; he shared the blessings of Judah's Lion, and assisted in his victories.
Verses 28-33 Jacob blessed every one according to the blessings God in after-times intended to bestow upon them. ...that Canaan should be the inheritance of his seed in due time. ...We shall remain unmoved until our work is finished; then, breathing out our souls into His hands for whose salvation we have waited, we shall depart in peace, and leave a blessing for our children after us.- Matthew Henry Concise


In all things we must continue remembering; 4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;1 Corinthians 13:4-5 NKJV

I’m looking forward to hearing your take on today's feast; mike@admenu.com



Do you know that you are made in the image of God? You are an eternal being, where you spend eternity depends on your relationship with God? To be sure turn from sin just say this simple prayer; “Dear God, I am a sinner and need forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ shed His precious blood and died for my sin. I am willing to turn from sin. I now invite Christ to come into my heart and life as my personal Saviour.“ If you said this prayer inviting Jesus into your heart. Now turning from sin, and seek fellowship just as we do. We worship and fellowship in a Church (group of believers) that strive to measures up to God’s Word. You need a Bible believing body of believers (church) to worship and pray with. Our salvation depends completely on God! We are the Saints that Jesus sacrificed his life to pay in full for our sin, when we repent (turn from sin) and accept Jesus. If you are ready hear more click this link now; admenu.com/calling.htm
