My FAVORITE SCRIPTURES (categorized)
NOTE: OK, brothers & sisters, here's how this work week went (keeping in mind that I begin my workday at 8:30 a.m.)! Monday, home at 7:30; Tuesday at 9:30, Wednesday at 9:40, and Thursday at 10:30!!! NO relax time!!! The report is due out this afternoon (halleluYAH!), and tonight begins Shabbat (Sabbath), thank God! I think our Father is VERY smart to insist we take a whole 24 hours off, no WORK, to do nothing but relax and commune with Him!!! DAY #7 - no smoking & feeling GREAT... almost made it a week already (2 p.m. today)!!! Besides the regular daily updates above, the only other thing I am adding today is one of the most awesome studies I've ever done! Be sure to read BOTH parts of the study, because it is AWESOME!!! Have a blessed weekend, and keep praying that each day, not smoking will be seen as more and more of a blessing to me, and become easier and easier to handle!
Love to you all! Peg
NEW FOR TODAY:
STRANGE HEAVENLY SIGNS:
And There Shall be Signs, part 1 (by Chris McDonald of Spirit Journals): The sun, moon and stars were created for more than to simply give light to mankind. The miraculous redemptive plan of God was placed in the heavens for all to see before there was even a Bible. The stars and signs that HE Placed in the heavens so long ago are preaching a message today - JESUS IS COMING! They are telling us to get ready for a time of trouble unknown to man up to this point in history and one that will never be anything like it in the future. The Lord Jesus said that in the last days the powers of the heavens would be shaken and there would be signs in the sun, moon and the stars alerting a world lost without God the times of the Lord's coming are near. Neighbor, it’s getting late and we are seeing those signs in the heavens at this present time. The total solar eclipse over Egypt on March 29, 2006 coincided with the days of the ninth plague during Israel's exodus from Pharaoh! One day prior to this event on March 28, 2006, Israel held national elections electing a government willing to concede land for peace. On March 29th, Hamas took over full power of the Palestinian Authority that resides next door to Jerusalem. These signs are just another sound of a distant thunder that something major is on the prophetic horizon. We need to be sure that our calling and election is anchored IN CHRIST and Him Crucified. He is the only anchor for our faith in these last days!
And There Shall be Signs, part 2: The Witness of the Stars (by Chris McDonald of Spirit Journals): As we continue part two of our look at the cosmic signs heralding the end times, I want to address the Biblical foundation of studying the stars to give us greater insights to the gospel of redemption found in Jesus Christ and Him Crucified. There is some disagreement in some circles that the idea God placed the gospel message of Jesus in the stars is legitimate and scriptural. Some take severe issue with the stance that there are prophetic significance in these cosmic signs even though the Lord Jesus Himself said that "there shall be signs in the sun, moon and in the stars."
NEW FOR YESTERDAY:
2 TIMOTHY 3:
Gay Marriage Amendment Carries New Support (Supporters say the amendment will win as many as seven new votes from freshmen elected after the amendment received its last vote in 2004. Their support is expected to produce a majority for the amendment in the 100-member chamber.)
AMERICA:
US super-embassy emerges in the heart of Baghdad (Protected by 15ft thick walls and ringed by military guards, it signals the seriousness of America's intentions to retain a large and long-term presence in the country. The £315 million building's existence is meant to be a secret.)
ANTI-CHRISTIANITY:
Does 'PG' rating mean 'pro-God'? (A new family film featuring miracles and a pro-God theme has earned a rating of "PG" from the Motion Picture Association of America due to fears it might offend people who have no faith or a different faith.) <- Now I've heard it all!!!
ARMAGEDDON/EZEKIEL 38-39 PLAYER(S):
China's military space power growing (Asian superpower will pursue offensive anti-satellite system)
Russia faces demographic disaster (The country's population is declining by at least 700,000 people each year, leading to slow depopulation of the northern and eastern extremes of Russia, the emergence of hundreds of uninhabited "ghost villages" and an increasingly aged workforce.)
BIG BROTHER:
Upcoming Launch of the New 'Tag and Track' System and Location Services (The technology locates and/or tracks vehicles, objects, assets or people. Our customers will deploy a portable receiver or reader devices network whether inside or outside a building which will be used to pick up the signal transmitted by our "Tag and Track" Tracker with its integrated RFID Tag.)
High hopes for drone in LA skies (Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drone aircraft, are about to be launched for the first time by the police in Los Angeles.)
CANADA:
Secret meetings set? (Politicians, royalty and tycoons from Europe and North America have been meeting secretly every year since 1954, spawning a string of conspiracy theories.)
MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGHS:
Experimental Drug Activates "Death" Receptors on Cancer Cells (Results show Apo2L shrunk tumors in one patient with sarcoma and stabilized cancer growth in about 56 percent of study participants.)
Gardenia Fruit Compound may Treat Diabetes (A new study shows the extract contains a chemical called genipin, which may target some of the pancreatic dysfunctions of diabetes.)
Skin Rash Determines Survival in Liver Cancer Patients (When researchers at the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute looked at the effects of lapatinib, a new chemotherapy drug for liver cancer, they found the development of a skin rash was directly linked to how the patient responded to the treatment.)
NATURAL DISASTERS:
55 Die in China's Worst Flooding in 30 years (At least 55 people have been killed and 12 are missing amid the worst flooding in eastern China in three decades, the government said on Thursday.)
Are there really more hurricanes? (AS THE season for hurricanes cranks up, so do the arguments about what is causing them. Now a meteorologist claims that the apparent increase in recent years - blamed on global warming - is an illusion.)
Merapi Spews Biggest Clouds Yet; Indonesia Evacuates Residents (Indonesia's Mount Merapi volcano released its biggest clouds of superheated gasses and ash in almost a month, sending nearby villagers fleeing for safety and prompting the government to evacuate residents from the area.)
Spain heading for worst drought since 1947 as reservoir levels fall (Spain's reservoirs are in a worse state than last year as the country heads for what some experts are predicting will be the worst drought for 60 years.)
TERRORISTS/TERRORISM:
Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi Killed in Air Raid (Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, al-Qaida's leader in Iraq who led a bloody campaign of suicide bombings and kidnappings, has been killed in an air raid north of Baghdad... a major victory in the U.S.-led war in Iraq and the broader war on terror. Iraq's prime minister and U.S. officials said his identity was confirmed by fingerprints and a first-hand look at his face.)
Police Detain a Man at British Parliament (Police briefly locked down Britain's Houses of Parliament on Wednesday after a powdery substance was sprayed in the main lobby.)
Have a blessed, peaceful day in the Lord! Peg.
