Lesson for the week-------2 Peter 1:16-21

 

2 Peter 1:16-21 NKJV

The Trustworthy Prophetic Word

¹⁶ For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty. ¹⁷ For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” ¹⁸ And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain.

^19 [a]And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; ²⁰ knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private ^[b]interpretation, ²¹ for prophecy never came by the will of man, but ^[c]holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

May you, the reader, be blessed by these words.

Spammer

 To whom is spamming me.

I really think that instead of spending your time messing with me, why don't you do what Jesus would do and go feed and care for Hungry/ Homeless People??

I think that would be a much better use of your time.

Lesson for the week----- 1 Corinthians 2:1-12

 

1 Corinthians 2:1-12 [13-16] NKJV

Christ Crucified

2 And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the ^[a]testimony of God. ² For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. ³ I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. ⁴ And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of ^[b]human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, ⁵ that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

Spiritual Wisdom

⁶ However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. ⁷ But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ^[c]ordained before the ages for our glory, ⁸ which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

⁹ But as it is written:

“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

¹⁰ But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. ¹¹ For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. ¹² Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.

1 Corinthians 2:13-16 NKJV

¹³ These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the ^[a]Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. ¹⁴ But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. ¹⁵ But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. ¹⁶ For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

 

May you, the reader, be blessed by these words.

Travel

 Dear all:

Between no Passport, Bleeding Ulcerative Colitis and a screwed Lumber Spine, I'm not going anyplace any time soon plus I just got hit with $3400 in Med expenses.

I can't even drive 50 miles to my West to visit an Amish Family who are not only friends but true Brothers and Sisters in Christ.

I have no clue where some people think I can fly 4500 miles when I can't even drive 50 miles. That kind of  paranoia is very disheartening to me. You know, I approached a group of people as a friend and in peace and for the most part all I have gotten in return is slapped in the face!

I can only Pray that someday we will have a conversation and get things sorted out. I had never intended for my current situation in Europe to turn to crap like it currently is. However, due to Language and Cultural differences, I am now [Not by choice] at logger heads with the people in Lesser Poland. I am truly very heart broken about this mess.

Please, I ask for prayers for Healing.

Now, if certain people only had the COURAGE to talk to me 😉 So far, all I am hearing are "Crickets"

For some reason, I have the urge to go make Chrusciki!  

Update 11 Feb 26

Here's an interesting note: I NEVER thought, a little Hick, "Whistle Stop" Town in the Southwest of Poland would ever have such a big impact on my life. True enough, I am in disgrace right now mostly because of my own stupidity. I pray all will eventually work out once they figure out I am not the enemy!

Update 12 Feb 26

 This morning, during breakfast, after I read my daily devotional. I opened Ida's Bible to a random page, which put me at Proverbs 17:28. What it said hit me like a ton of bricks and now, I feel like a total smacked A** :(

2 weeks later! Ribbit!
