The
Best of the Feast
A Place A Purpose!
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

“28 And we know that for those who love God all things
work together for good, for those who are called according to his
purpose. ” Romans 8:28, English Standard Version (ESV)
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully read our
Feast in 1 Chronicles, Chapter 9; “Genealogies.
- This chapter expresses that one end of recording
all these genealogies was, to direct the Jews, when they returned out of
captivity, with whom to unite, and where to reside. Here is an account of the
good state into which the affairs of religion were put, on the return from
Babylon. Every one knew his charge. Work is likely to be done well when every
one knows the duty of his place, and makes a business of it. God is the God
of order. Thus was the temple a figure of the heavenly one, where they rest
not day nor night from praising God, (Revelation
4:8 ) . Blessed be His name, believers there shall, not in turn, but
all together, without interruption, praise him night and day: may the Lord
make each of us fit for the inheritance of the saints in light.” - Matthew Henry Concise.
Today
we prayerfully Feast in 1 Chronicles 9. Praise
God! As we read God’s word notice that these genealogies,
not only gives the names but also their location and purpose. “1 So all Israel was recorded in genealogies, and
these are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel. And Judah was taken
into exile in Babylon because of their breach of faith. 2 Now the first to dwell
again in their possessions in their cities were Israel, the priests, the
Levites, and the temple servants. 3 And some of the people of
Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh lived in Jerusalem:” 1
Chronicles 9:1-3, ESV. I firmly believe that God has a purpose
for every person in the Church. I know this he didn’t save us to fill pews on
Sunday and Wednesday. Don’t fret if you don’t know what your calling is
yet. Get to know Jesus in Prayer, Praise and Reading the Holy Bible. “11 Beloved,
if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.12 No
one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his
love is perfected in us.” 1
John 4:11-12, ESV. Part of knowing God is to assemble in God’s
love with the Church. When we join together in prayer praise and worship
God’s love will be perfected in us. Always keep the first thing first. That
is salvation through the blood of the Lamb. Trust our Savior and
allow the Holy Spirit to perfect God’s love in us. Continue to seek God and
you’ll find your place and purpose. Sandy (my wife) and I are out on
the road today. If the Lord is willing I will post and send
the Feast again tomorrow.
God Bless You,
Brother

Justified by Jesus!
The
Best of the Feast
Justified by Jesus!
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.
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully read
our Feast in 1 Chronicles, Chapter 8; “Genealogies.
- Here is a larger list of Benjamin's tribe. We
may suppose that many things in these genealogies, which to us seem
difficult, abrupt, and perplexed, were plain and easy at that time, and fully
answered the intention for which they were published. Many great and mighty
nations then were in being upon earth, and many illustrious men, whose names
are now wholly forgotten; while the names of multitudes of the Israel of God
are here kept in everlasting remembrance. The memory of the just is blessed.” - Matthew Henry Concise.
Today
we prayerfully Feast in 1 Chronicles 8. Am
I the only one who has trouble pronouncing some of these names? No
matter how we pronounce them know this; God knows them, and each of their
descendants. “39 The sons of Eshek his brother: Ulam
his firstborn, Jeush the second, and Eliphelet the third. 40 The
sons of Ulam were men who were mighty warriors, bowmen, having many sons and
grandsons, 150. All these were Benjaminites.”
1
Chronicles 8:39-40, ESV. Matthew Henry said; “… Many great and
mighty nations then were in being upon earth, and many illustrious men, whose
names are now wholly forgotten; while the names of multitudes of the Israel
of God are here kept in everlasting remembrance. The memory of the just is
blessed.” Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary. Not one
person who is born escapes the mind of God! Jesus justifies all
who turn from sin and accept him. “38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor
things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor
height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate
us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans
8:38-39, ESV. Jesus promised that he will never leave
us. So we keep the first thing first. That is salvation
through the blood of the Lamb. We whom Jesus justifies cannot be
separated from the love of God! If the Lord is willing I will post
and send the Feast again tomorrow.
God Bless You,
Brother

Separated From The Love Of God?
The
Best of the Feast
Separated From The Love Of God?
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.
“3 He was despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and
acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was
despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he has
borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken,
smitten by God, and afflicted.” Isaiah 53:3-4, English Standard Version (ESV)
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully read
our Feast in 1 Chronicles, Chapter 7; “Genealogies.
- Here is no account either of Zebulun or Dan. We
can assign no reason why they only should be omitted; but it is the disgrace
of the tribe of Dan, that idolatry began in that colony which fixed in Laish,
and called it Dan, ( Judges
18 ) and there one of the golden calves was set up by Jeroboam. Dan
is omitted, ( Revelation 7 ) . Men become abominable when they
forsake the worship of the true God, for any creature object.” - Matthew Henry Concise.
Today
we prayerfully Feast in 1 Chronicles 7. Oh
no! Not more of this Fathers, Mothers, sons and daughters? Saints,
there is a purpose for every Word in the Holy Word of God. “40 All of these were men of Asher, heads
of fathers’ houses, approved, mighty warriors, chiefs of the princes. Their
number enrolled by genealogies, for service in war, was 26,000 men.” 1
Chronicles 7:40, ESV. The Fear of the Lord is the beginning of
wisdom. This doesn’t mean to be afraid of God. It means to
hold God in reverence, highest esteem, to understand there is no power higher
than God. “ 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress,
or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? …37 No,
in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who
loved us. ” Romans
8:35, 37, ESV. Because we “FEAR (hold in reverence, highest
esteem and the highest power.) GOD”. We have faith in and love God in
return. We keep the first thing first. That is
salvation through the blood of the Lamb. Can we be separated from
the love of God? No! Not if we wait on God, build our faith
reading his Word daily and stay in a loving relationship with
Jesus. We have been sealed with the Holy Spirit; He will give us a
peace that passes the understanding of this world. If the Lord
is willing I will post and send the Feast again tomorrow.
God Bless You,
Brother

WHAT KIND OF LOVE?
The Best of The Feast
What Kind Of Love?
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.
“21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew
no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” 2 Corinthians
5:21, English
Standard Version (ESV)
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully read
our Feast in 1 Chronicles, Chapter 6; “Genealogies.
- We have an account of Levi in this chapter. The
priests and Levites were more concerned than any other Israelites, to
preserve their descent clear, and to be able to prove it; because all the
honours and privileges of their office depended upon their descent. Now, the
Spirit of God calls ministers to their work, without any limit as to the
families they came from; and then, as now, though believers and ministers may
be very useful to the church, none but our great High Priest can make
atonement for sin, nor can any be accepted but through his atonement.” - Matthew Henry Concise.
Today
we prayerfully Feast in 1 Chronicles 6. Once
in a while it is hard to see what God is trying to say to us. As
we read today his love should shine on our hearts. Because of
Jesus we can approach the Holy of Holies, as only the Levites could. “20 Of Gershom: Libni his son, Jahath his son, Zimmah his son,”1
Chronicles 6:20, ESV. By whom have we been loved more than our
awesome God! “10 In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and
sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 1
John 4:10, ESV. Because we have faith in and love for God we
keep the first thing first. That is salvation through the blood of
the Lamb. This faith in God’s love, gives us hope for all things
in God. If the Lord is willing I will
post and send the Feast again tomorrow.
God Bless You,
Brother
Mike
