All Relationships Count!

Today’s Feast Dec. 31, 2015 – II Samuel 17 All Relationships Count! clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. “Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, a path in the mighty waters, “Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” Isaiah 43:16, 18-19, English Standard Version (ESV). Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue the Feast in 2nd Samuel Chapter 17; “Ahithophel's counsel overthrown. (1-21) He hangs himself, Absalom pursues David. (22-29)” - Matthew Henry Concise. Hushai tells to Absalom that Ahithophel’s advice is bad, so Ahithophel’s counsel overthrown. Ahithophel hanged himself because his counsel was not followed. Then he hangs himself, Absalom pursues David. “27 When David came to Mahanaim, Shobi son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites, and Makir son of Ammiel from Lo Debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim 28 brought bedding and bowls and articles of pottery. They also brought wheat and barley, flour and roasted grain, beans and lentils, 29 honey and curds, sheep, and cheese from cows’ milk for David and his people to eat. For they said, “The people have become hungry and tired and thirsty in the desert.”” 2 Samuel 17:27-29, ESV. Once again I would say it is better to keep your eyes on Jesus rather than men. Even if a profit has a word for you, hold the profits word up to God’s Word, to see if they line up. If they don’t, then you should follow God’s Word. “1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made. 4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:1-5, ESV. Saints we are followers of God, not men, no matter what their position. Give the authorities the respect their position requires, always keep the first thing first, that is salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. “Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.” John 17:17, ESV. Allow God to be your guide in this life, make all of your relationships count. If the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow. You’ll find the praise and prayer list at; admenu.com/prayer.html.  Prayer request or Praise reports can be sent to brother Mike at;  mike@admenu.com Don’t get caught up in “religion”, it is about a relationship. 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 and accept Jesus. He will come to get every Saint; “36 “But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.” Matthew 24:36, ESV.

God’s Word Is The Light!

Today’s Feast Dec. 30, 2015 – II Samuel 16 God’s Word Is The Light! clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. “I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”” John 16:33, English Standard Version (ESV). Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue the Feast in 2nd Samuel Chapter 16; “Ziba's falsehood. (1-4) David cursed by Shimei. (5-14) Ahithophel's counsel. (15-23)” - Matthew Henry Concise. Ziba’s flattery to king David is really a falsehood. David accepts the curses by Shimei, thinking possibly the curses are from God. Ahithophel’s counsels Absalom to do wicked things. “20 Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, “Give your counsel. What shall we do?” 21 Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Go in to your father’s concubines, whom he has left to keep the house, and all Israel will hear that you have made yourself a stench to your father, and the hands of all who are with you will be strengthened.” 22 So they pitched a tent for Absalom on the roof. And Absalom went in to his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel. 23 Now in those days the counsel that Ahithophel gave was as if one consulted the word of God; so was all the counsel of Ahithophel esteemed, both by David and by Absalom.” 2 Samuel 16:20-23, ESV. Dear Saints, what can we say, except to seek counsel from God? Keep your eyes on Jesus and his Word, testing men’s words always holding them up to the Light which is God’s Word! “1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made. 4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:1-5, ESV.

Lord God Be Our Guide!

Today’s Feast Dec. 29, 2015 – II Samuel 15 Lord God Be Our Guide! clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. “[ I Am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life ] In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also ” John 14:1-3, English Standard Version (ESV). Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue the Feast in 2nd Samuel Chapter 15; “Absalom's ambition. (1-6) His conspiracy. (7-12) David leaves Jerusalem. (13-23) David sends back the ark. (24-30) He prays against Ahithophel's counsel. (31-37) ” - Matthew Henry Concise. Absalom’s ambition seems to be judge over Israel at first. His ambition soon turns into a conspiracy to become king. King David leaves Jerusalem, rather than to fight his son. Out of reverence to God David sends back the ark. He prays against Ahithophel’s counsel. “32 While David was coming to the summit, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn and dirt on his head. 33 David said to him, “If you go on with me, you will be a burden to me. 34 But if you return to the city and say to Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, O king; as I have been your father’s servant in time past, so now I will be your servant,’ then you will defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel. 35 Are not Zadok and Abiathar the priests with you there? So whatever you hear from the king’s house, tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests. 36 Behold, their two sons are with them there, Ahimaaz, Zadok’s son, and Jonathan, Abiathar’s son, and by them you shall send to me everything you hear.” 37 So Hushai, David’s friend, came into the city, just as Absalom was entering Jerusalem.” 2 Samuel 15:32-37, ESV. David was lax in the case of son Absalom. Like David, if we fail to do to discipline our children we are sinning against God. We can’t allow sin to separate us from Jesus. We need to keep the first thing first, that is salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. “Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law.” Psalm 119:18, ESV. Allow God to be your guide in this life, make all of your relationships count. If the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow.

Sin Ruins Everything!

Today’s Feast Dec. 28, 2015 – II Samuel 14 Sin Ruins Everything! clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. “28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. ” Matthew 11:28, English Standard Version (ESV). Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue the Feast in 2nd Samuel Chapter 14; “Joab procures Absalom's recall. (1-20) Absalom recalled. (21-24) His personal beauty. (25-27) He is admitted to his father's presence. (28-33) ” - Matthew Henry Concise.  Joab had a wise widow act as a mourner to procure Absalom’s king David’s son to return to Jerusalem. Absalom recalled is by his father but not allowed to be in David’s house. Absalom was a very handsome man and therefor his daughter Tamar was a beautiful woman. Absalom used treachery against Joab (he burned his crops) in order to gain admittance to his father’s presence. “32 Absalom answered Joab, “Behold, I sent word to you, ‘Come here, that I may send you to the king, to ask, “Why have I come from Gusher? It would be better for me to be there still.” Now therefore let me go into the presence of the king, and if there is guilt in me, let him put me to death.’” 33 Then Joab went to the king and told him, and he summoned Absalom. So he came to the king and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king, and the king kissed Absalom” 2 Samuel 14:32-33, ESV. While Christ paid the price for our sin, never forget the high price he paid. If you sin on purpose or accident, turn from sin and ask God forgiveness, he will restore you to your loved ones just as he did Absalom. While sin separates us from God remember it also ruins any personal relationships with friends and family. We should endeavor to keep the first thing first, that is salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. “Trouble and anguish have found me out, but your commandments are my delight.” Psalm 119:143, ESV.  While sin can be the ruin of our lives, God can and will restore order and love. Through Jesus on his terms because there is no other name by which we can be saved.  If the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow.
