Verse of the Week

My Aunt Kay Jean suggested I start sharing a verse of the day.  I liked her suggestion but decided instead of a verse of the day, I would share a verse of the week.  Be reminded of who God is from His Word. 43  And immediately, while he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. 44  Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man. Seize him and lead him away under guard.” 45  And when he came, he went up to him at once and said, “Rabbi!” And he kissed him. 46  And they laid hands on him and seized him. 47  But one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear. 48  And Jesus said to them, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me? 49  Day after day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me...

Verse of the Week

My Aunt Kay Jean suggested I start sharing a verse of the day.  I liked her suggestion but decided instead of a verse of the day, I would share a verse of the week.  Be reminded of who God is from His Word. 28  Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. 2  And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. 3  His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. 4  And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men. 5  But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. 6  He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay. 7  Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see ...

Introduction to the Sermon on the Mount 5  Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2  and he began to teach them.

Verse of the Week

My Aunt Kay Jean suggested I start sharing a verse of the day.  I liked her suggestion but decided instead of a verse of the day, I would share a verse of the week.  Be reminded of who God is from His Word. 4  And the angel who talked with me came again and woke me, like a man who is awakened out of his sleep. 2  And he said to me, “What do you see?” I said, “I see, and behold, a lampstand all of gold, with a bowl on the top of it, and seven lamps on it, with seven lips on each of the lamps that are on the top of it. 3  And there are two olive trees by it, one on the right of the bowl and the other on its left.” 4  And I said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?” 5  Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” I said, “No, my lord.” 6  Then he said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit , says the Lord of hosts...
