The visual elements of this video are really beautiful in their simplicity. The fonts chosen, capitalization, size, symbols - monochromatic - and this slow curtain of light coming into the ‘thick darkness’ that ‘covers the face of the earth.’ I live in Montreal and it reminds me of Leonard Cohen, “In streams of light I clearly saw the dust one seldom sees…”. I’ve benefited a lot from this series. For me a helpful place to start has been looking at the word “provide” as it appears in the book of Jonah (The Lord provided… a great fish, a plant, a worm, a scorching east wind, etc.) The story of Micaiah is among my favourite. Let your word agree with theirs!
Mark 6:53-56(Jesus😊1st❤ heals😊❤ the sick in Gennesaret) "53 When they has crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and moored to the shore. 54 And when they got out of the boat, the people immediately recognized 😊❤ him( Jesus😊1st❤) 55 and ran about the whole region and began 😊❤ to bring the sick❤ people😊❤ on their bed to wherever they heard he(Jesus😊1st❤) was. 56 And wherever he came, in villages, cities, or countryside, they laid the sick in the marketplaces and implored him that they might touch even the fringe of his( Jesus' 😊1st❤) garment.

Where there is no evil or sin, Satan cannot attack, but will flee (James 4:7). Jesus, while in the wilderness, was suffering through hunger pains when Satan came to take advantage of the moment. Yet, Satan underestimated the true power of God that works through His Son and it was to no avail. To all those who submit to God, is he who keeps himself and that wicked one touches him not (1 John 5:18). This will only happen to the degree and measure that we honor and revere His word in all that we do. God must become first in all things; we must shun sin at *all* costs. We must deny ourselves; hate and undermine all of the things that this dying world has to offer, which is less than dung [nothing] in comparison to spending eternity with God the Father and Jesus Christ. The more we reject the ways of Satan, the more protection we have from God through Jesus, and nothing shall by any means hurt us (Luke 10:19). Amen.

1 Corinthians 10:13, wonderful verse, but one that readdresses my questions, are there certain sins that are flat out un-resistible due to the action being providential, or is every and has every sin been avoidable given the statement “God will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it” my question to you is this, could David have simply resisted the temptation when he saw Bathsheba, or was that an unavoidable providential action because of the lesson that came from it?
By the Lord's will, he light's the straight and narrow path for the lost sheep to find their way home and sent a comforter to walk beside them ❤
Wow. I literally read the story of the king of Israel being shot in the joints of his armor this morning. Incredible
"But he always prophesies evil agaisnt me 😭." Poor guy haha knew he wouldn't catch a break.
Jesus lives ♥ and is God 🙏🏻 Christ ✝ and King 👑
