The
Best of the Feast
Mar
21, 2017 – Ecclesiastes 1
God’s
Word Imparts Wisdom!
“16 For all that is in the
world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is
not of the Father but is of the world.” 1 John 2:16
Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We spend about fifteen
minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately
three years.
Dear Saints,
Today we
prayerfully continue our Feast reading Ecclesiastes Chapter 1
Ecclesiastes an overview, “The name of this book signifies “The Preacher.” The
wisdom of God here preaches to us, speaking by Solomon, who it is evident was
the author. At the close of his life, being made sensible of his sin and
folly, he recorded here his experience for the benefit of others, as the book
of his repentance; and he pronounced all earthly good to be “vanity and
vexation of spirit.” It convinces us of the vanity of the world, and that it
cannot make us happy; of the vileness of sin, and its certain tendency to
make us miserable. It shows that no created good can satisfy the soul, and
that happiness is to be found in God alone; and this doctrine must, under the
blessed Spirit’s teaching, lead the heart to Christ Jesus.” – Matthew Henry Commentary on
the Whole Bible (Concise)
Today’s Feast speaks to the value of worldly wisdom. “18 For in much wisdom is much grief, And he who increases knowledge
increases sorrow. “ Ecclesiastes
1:18 New King James Version (NKJV).
Our Supreme Court as well as any person seeking understanding the will of God
or what is good and right should take a lesson here. You can make laws or be
as politically correct as you want; If God says it’s sin it is sin (see Ecclesiastes
7:13). Don’t be fooled by what the
world say’s is proper and right. The
only thing that may be new and good (See Ecclesiastes
3:15) is a repentant sinner gaining salvation through God’s Son
Jesus. “16 But I will sing of Your power; Yes, I will sing
aloud of Your mercy in the morning; For You have been my defense And refuge
in the day of my trouble.“
– Psalm
59:16 NKJV. Even the angels in
heaven rejoice (see Luke
15:10) whenever a soul turns to Jesus for freedom and that more excellent
life. If the Lord is willing I will write and post the Feast tomorrow.
Is Jesus calling you? Do you want to be clean, free
from condemnation? Do you want to find true happiness, peace and
purpose in your life? If the answer is yes to any of these questions,

Today’s Verse; ““Blessed is the man who trusts
in the Lord, And whose hope is the Lord. For he shall be like a tree planted
by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear
when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the
year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.” Jeremiah 17:7-8 NKJV.
God Bless You,
Brother Mike
