Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Character Studies From The Bible

Paul

(Paul's Letter to The Ephesians)

5 1 Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children 2 and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

3 But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people. 4 Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. 5 For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a person is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.[a] 6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient. 7 Therefore do not be partners with them.

8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) 10 and find out what pleases the Lord. 11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12 It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. 13 But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light. 14 This is why it is said:

“Wake up, sleeper,
    rise from the dead,

    and Christ will shine on you.”

15 Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. 18 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, 20 always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

(Ephesians 5)

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

This Passage really convicts me, as I have always been a "Wise Guy" and "coarse jesting" comes very easily to either my lips or my fingertips. One way of dealing with this very common sin is too "Hide God's Word in my Heart", which means, of course, staying in the Scriptures. I have been reading the Bible for over 30 years and have been through it nearly that many times because of a little plan I cooked up. I am going to share it with you this morning, and if it works for you, GREAT! If not, well, that's OK too.

Here Goes:

1. Get 8 little bookmarks. The more colorful and cheerful, the better. (Mine were a gift from a student, and they have puppy and kitten holograms on them! LOL)

2. Place the Bookmarks in Your favorite translation of the Bible like This:

Old Testament:
1. The Torah (Genesis - Deuteronomy)
2. History (Joshua - Esther)
3. Poetry (Job - Song of Solomon)
4. The Prophets (Isaiah - Malachi)

New Testament:
1. The Gospels (Matthew-John)
2. The Book of Acts
3. The Letters (Romans-Jude)
4. The Book of Revelation

Every morning, while you are having your coffee, read ONE Chapter from each of the Bookmarks, and then move the bookmark forward to the next chapter, and then go to the next bookmark, read ONE chapter, and then go the next. DO NOT be legalistic about it, because that will make it a chore. Instead, let the Word minister to you and have the whole counsel of God at your fingertips.

Because of the number of chapters involved in each bookmark, it works out like this:

The Torah...2X a year
History...(the toughest section, IMNSHO) 1X a year
Poetry...2X a year
The Prophets...1X a year
The Gospels...2+ times a year
The Book of Acts 12(!) times a year
The Letters...2X a year
Revelation...12X a year

The complete overview is important so you won’t get bogged down in the “begats” or the wicked kings that keep messing up, which can be depressing! By following the Prophets with the Gospels, you see how the prophecies are fulfilled, and the messages in the Letters are uplifting after reading about the sufferings of Paul in the Book of Acts.

This is not actual Bible STUDY, but Bible Reading. Bible STUDY is, of course, the in depth exegesis of chapters, Passages, sentences, words, and even LETTERS in the Bible. It has a “calming” effect, and starts the day off right every time!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR
THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM!
And for the Preservation of the Valiant
Israeli Nation!

"The Apostle Paul In Prison"
Rembrandt van Rijn ~ 1627

_

E YE therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

Be not ye therefore partakers with them.

For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

(For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,

Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

___________________________________________Ephesians 5:1~20 (KJV)
