The Meaning Of Life

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_chronicles/23.htm David is growing old and near the sleep of death, and he makes his son Solomon the King of Israel. But before he dies, he reorganizes (my word, not God’s), the Levites. Remember, the Levites did not receive in inheritance in the land of Israel as their tribe was to minister to the people; Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_chronicles/22.htm A radio station I used to listen to on my way to work had a short blurb each morning called “Shower Thoughts”, and it was always something that was dark humor (just like mine) or something really wacky. For example, one was “If you take a donut hole, and put it in the hole Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_chronicles/21.htm Just for refresher, I’m studying the books of the Bible in chronological order, the timeline of the events as most feel they transpired. The problem with the Book of Psalms, which we just finished, is that the author and the time period in which they were written is unknown, so we had to cover Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/147.htm As I read Psalm 147, there was no particular verse that stood out to me, yet the psalm in it’s entirety did. What the psalmist says strikes me as the description of a father. We know God is our Heavenly Father, but his actions and character are virtually the same as our earthly father. Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/132.htm Psalms 132 and 134 are songs of ascents, like others in this section of the Bible. Apparently the term was derived from fact that Jerusalem sits on a high hill, and the children of Israel would sing these songs as they ascended the hill to Jerusalem for one of the three annual Jewish Festivals. Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/120.htm I in now way mean to diminish the worth of the following psalms, each one is worthy because they are included in God’s Word, however these short psalms are prayers and pleas to God, praise to God, and more descriptions of the character of God, the latter of which I feel is the most Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/119.htm Confession time. I had to research to find out what Aleph meant. Then Beth, then Gimel. They are the letters of the Hebrew alphabet, and there are passages for each letter. As to why the psalmist divided the passages by letter, I have no idea. I just read the psalm, enjoy it, and search Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/118.htm Well. I was planning on covering two or three psalms again today, but wow, there is so much packed into this one, it will be the only one I talk about. First, we hear the phrase “His mercy endures forever” in this and other psalms, and it is so true. It doesn’t matter how Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/115.htm I don’t comment on every single verse of the Bible, I only comment on those things that get my attention for some reason. That said, I read every verse of every psalm, but just because I don’t comment on something doesn’t mean I didn’t read and it doesn’t mean that it is not worthy Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/psalms/107.htm Psalm 107 – and yet another psalm that talks about the “lovingkindness” of the Lord. Despite other scripture that makes God look like an angry tyrant, I believe God is merciful and loving. The other scriptures, I believe, were tainted by the authors emotional state when written, or by their misperception of what they Continue reading
