🙏🏼Every Day is Thanksgiving 💕 Every morning we open our eyes is a gift—an unearned invitation from God to rise, breathe, and begin again. Before our feet touch the floor, gratitude becomes our first act of worship. We thank Him for the breath in our lungs, the shelter over our heads, the food on our tables, and the love that flows from His heart to ours. But true gratitude goes deeper than abundance. It is tested—and proven—in the fire. There are seasons when resources run thin, when strength feels small, and when life presses hard enough to expose what we really believe. Those are not the moments God abandons us; they are the moments He refines us. Just as precious metals are purified by intense heat, our faith is strengthened through trial. In the flames, the impurities rise, the distractions fall away, and the sincere trust we didn’t even know we possessed begins to shine. And when God brings us through—and He always does—we can stand steady on the other side and declare with full assurance: “Lord my God, great is Your faithfulness.” Because every day—whether overflowing with blessing or forged in the fire—He is faithful. Every day He is worthy of thanksgiving. Every day He is drawing hearts to Himself. And if your heart is stirring even now, that is His invitation. Not to religion, not to ritual— but to redemption, to forgiveness, and to new life in Yeshua, Jesus the Messiah. 🙏🏼 CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Faith #God #Jesus #Love #Help #Thankful #Grateful

✨ Prophecy Fulfilled: The Life of Yeshua (Jesus) – Episode 50 “The Widow’s Mite” The fury of the Woes still hovered in the Temple air like smoke after a fire. The crowds whispered. The scribes retreated. The Pharisees nursed their wounded pride. But Yeshua… He walked past the noise, past the tension, past the murmurs of men who hated Him. He quietly sat down in the Court of the Women, the place where the people came to offer gifts to God. For a moment, the world grew still. Twelve giant offering trumpets lined the courtyard — hammered bronze catching the sunlight. Wealthy worshippers approached, each letting their coins fall loudly into the metal mouths. The echoes rang across the stone courts like applause. To the people, the sound symbolized generosity. To the priests, it symbolized status. But to Yeshua… it symbolized misplaced worship. Then she appeared. A widow — fragile, unnoticed, unnamed. Her clothing worn thin. Her steps quiet. Her presence overshadowed by those with overflowing purses. She approached an offering trumpet with two tiny coins — two lepta, the smallest coins in circulation. Worth almost nothing. But they represented everything she had. She opened her hand. The coins fell. clink… clink… Barely a whisper. No one turned to look. No one praised her. No one stepped aside to honor her sacrifice. No one… except Yeshua. His eyes lit with something the others could not see — the brilliance of a heart fully surrendered. He called His disciples to Himself with urgency: “Truly I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all the others.” They looked at Him, confused. More? They had seen the wealthy empty handfuls of silver and gold. But Yeshua explained: “They gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all she had to live on.” The Kingdom of God does not measure by amount. It measures by sacrifice. By devotion. By trust. ✝️ CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Bible #God #Jesus #BibleStudy #Help #Tithing #Giving

Titus: A Brief Introduction to the Bible - Part 51 Titus is one of Paul’s sharpest, most decisive pastoral letters. Written to a trusted coworker assigned to establish order in the churches on the island of Crete, this epistle delivers clear, uncompromising instructions about leadership, doctrine, godly living, and spiritual credibility in a culture known for corruption. If 1–2 Timothy focus on pastoral endurance and guarding doctrine, Titus focuses on producing a church that displays the transforming power of the gospel through its conduct. This letter is short — but it is not soft. Paul calls for integrity, discipline, and visible holiness in a world watching closely. ⸻ Audience & Setting Titus was left in Crete, an island with a fierce reputation. Ancient writers described Cretans as untrustworthy, immoral, greedy, and difficult to lead. The churches there were young and vulnerable to false teachers, especially those mixing Jewish legalism with empty talk and manipulation. Paul writes Titus with urgency so he can: • Appoint qualified elders • Silence corrupt teachers • Strengthen households • Model good works • And ensure that believers live in a way that matches sound doctrine Titus is not just overseeing a congregation — he is establishing credibility for the gospel in a hostile environment. ⸻ Major Themes 1. The Importance of Godly Leadership Paul stresses strict qualifications for elders. Leadership is not based on charisma or ability — but on character, self-control, faithfulness, and doctrinal solidity. 2. Sound Doctrine Produces Sound Living Truth is not just intellectual; it must transform behavior. Paul repeatedly links what we believe with how we live. 3. Confronting False Teachers Paul commands Titus to silence deceivers who twist Scripture for financial gain or influence. These individuals undermine households, distort truth, and must be corrected firmly. ✝️ CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Titus #Bible #God #Jesus #Love

✨ Prophecy Fulfilled: The Life of Yeshua (Jesus) – Episode 49 “Woes to the Pharisees” (Matthew 23:1–39; Mark 12:38–40; Luke 20:45–47) The Temple courts fell into a heavy stillness. Yeshua stood before the crowds — disciples, pilgrims, scholars, and skeptics — and before the Pharisees who had spent the day attacking Him. This was His final public sermon before leaving the Temple forever. He lifted His voice, not with bitterness, but with the holy authority of a Judge and the breaking heart of a Father. “The scribes and Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So do what they tell you— but do not do what they do. For they preach, but do not practice.” A murmur rippled across the people. “They tie up heavy burdens and lay them on others’ shoulders, but they themselves won’t lift a finger to help.” Yeshua turned toward the Pharisees. The air trembled with truth about to fall. Woe One “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You shut the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces.” Woe Two “Woe to you! You travel over land and sea to make a convert, and when you do, you make him twice the son of hell as yourselves.” Gasps echoed across the courtyard. Woe Three “Woe to you, blind guides! You swear by the gold of the temple and forget the God who dwells there.” Woe Four “Woe to you! You tithe mint and dill and cumin, but neglect justice, mercy, and faithfulness.” His voice cracked with grief, not anger: “These you ought to have done without neglecting the others.” Woe Five “Woe to you! You clean the outside of the cup, but inside are greed and self-indulgence.” Woe Six “Woe to you! You are like whitewashed tombs— beautiful on the outside, but inside full of dead men’s bones.” The Pharisees stiffened, but Yeshua pressed on. Woe Seven “Woe to you! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous… yet you are the sons of those who murdered them!” ✝️ CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Bible #God #Jesus #BibleStudy #Help

2 Timothy: A Brief Introduction to the Bible - Part 50 2 Timothy is the last recorded letter of the Apostle Paul. It is written from a Roman prison, under the shadow of execution, with winter approaching and only a small handful of loyal friends still at his side. But this is not a letter of despair. It is a letter of courage, endurance, and unwavering faith, handed from a dying apostle to his spiritual son who must now carry the torch forward. This is Paul stripped of pretense, writing with absolute clarity about what matters most: Guard the gospel. Stand firm in suffering. Preach the Word. Finish the race. If 1 Timothy trains a young pastor, 2 Timothy commissions a successor. ⸻ Audience & Setting Paul writes to Timothy from his second Roman imprisonment — harsher, colder, and far more dangerous than the first. This time, Paul knows he will not be released. Nero’s persecution is intensifying, and many believers have scattered in fear. Timothy, meanwhile, remains in Ephesus, facing growing opposition, doctrinal corruption, and the weariness that often follows long-term ministry. Paul writes to steady him, strengthen him, and prepare him for the realities ahead. This is a letter written from chains… but filled with freedom. ⸻ Major Themes 1. Perseverance in Suffering Paul tells Timothy plainly: suffering is not an accident — it is part of following Christ. Faith must endure hardship, opposition, and loneliness without retreat. Paul himself models this with dignity: “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” 2. Guarding the Gospel Paul urges Timothy to protect the apostolic message with absolute vigilance. False teachers are spreading deception, itching ears are seeking new doctrines, and the world is growing hostile to truth. Timothy must stand firm when others compromise. ✝️ CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Timothy #Newtestament #Bible #God #Jesus #BibleStudy #Help #Paul

✨ Prophecy Fulfilled: The Life of Yeshua (Jesus) – Episode 48 - “David’s Lord” The Temple courts had been a battlefield of questions all morning— traps, challenges, accusations, and theological snares. One by one, the Pharisees, Sadducees, Herodians, and scribes had tried to corner Yeshua. And one by one, they had failed. Now Yeshua turned toward them— not with anger, but with authority. The Lion finally asking His own question. “What do you think about the Messiah? Whose Son is He?” They answered automatically, as if giving a textbook response: “The Son of David.” A correct answer. But not a complete one. Yeshua looked at them steadily, then quoted a psalm every priest, scholar, and teacher knew by heart: “How then does David, speaking by the Spirit, call Him Lord, saying: ‘The LORD said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies beneath Your feet’?” A hush fell over the court. This was Psalm 110 — a coronation psalm, a Messianic prophecy, the most cited psalm in the New Testament. Yeshua continued: “If David calls Him Lord, how is He his Son?” The question hit like a shockwave. If the Messiah is merely David’s descendant, why does David—Israel’s greatest king— call Him Lord? Unless… unless the Messiah is more than human. More than a king. More than a prophet. ✝️ CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Love #David #Bible #God #Jesus #BibleStudy #Help

John 8:12-19 KJV Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. [13] The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true. [14] Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go. [15] Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man. [16] And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. [17] It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. [18] I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me. [19] Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also. John 7:24 KJV Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. 1 Corinthians 6:1-4 KJV Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints? [2] Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? [3] Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life? [4] If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church. 1 Corinthians 5:12-13 KJV For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within? [13] But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person. 🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️ 🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️ Repent and believe on Jesus today Jesus Christ died on the cross shed his blood was buried and rose from the dead three days later put your faith in the blood of Jesus Christ today Amen, and Amen. #JesusFollower #Jesus #Bible #God

1 Timothy: A Brief Introduction to the Bible - Part 49 1 Timothy is one of the most personal, urgent, and protective letters Paul ever wrote. Unlike the epistles written to entire churches, this one is addressed to a single man — Timothy, Paul’s beloved spiritual son. The Church was expanding rapidly, false teachers were multiplying just as quickly, and Paul knew the next generation of leadership had to be grounded, courageous, and unwavering. So he writes this letter as a handbook for pastoral integrity, sound doctrine, and the defense of the faith. If the apostles carried the torch during the early explosions of the gospel, Timothy and his generation were being trained to carry it into a world becoming increasingly hostile. 1 Timothy is not soft. It is not casual. It is Paul calling Timothy — and every future church leader — to a life of seriousness, purity, and faithfulness. ⸻ Audience & Setting Timothy was stationed in Ephesus, a wealthy, intellectually proud city known for its pagan worship (especially of Artemis), its spiritual confusion, and its cultural immorality. The Ephesian church had growing influence — which made it an immediate target for false doctrine, manipulative leaders, and theological drift. Paul writes to Timothy because: • Some were teaching strange doctrines • Some were obsessed with myths and endless genealogies • Some desired to be teachers without understanding • The church needed clear structure and qualified leadership • And Timothy needed strength, confidence, and direction This is a letter of both love and marching orders. ⸻ Major Themes 1. Guarding Sound Doctrine Paul says it plainly: “Command certain men not to teach false doctrines.” Doctrine matters. Truth matters. Leadership must be anchored in the Word, not opinion or culture. ✝️ CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Timothy #Paul #Bible #God #Jesus #BibleStudy #Help

✨ Prophecy Fulfilled: The Life of Yeshua (Jesus) – Episode 47 “The Greatest Commandment” The Temple courts had grown tense with confrontation. The Pharisees had tried to trap Him. The Herodians had failed. The Sadducees had been silenced. But now a scribe stepped forward— not with venom, but with genuine curiosity. His eyes held something the others lacked: a hunger for truth instead of triumph. He had watched Yeshua answer flawlessly. He had seen wisdom tear down pride. And so he asked the question that lay at the heart of the law itself: “Teacher, which commandment is the greatest of all?” The crowd leaned in. Even the Pharisees fell still. Yeshua answered not with hesitation, but with the clarity of Heaven: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.” This is the first and greatest commandment. Then He added what none of them expected: “And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Love God. Love people. These were not new laws— they were the foundation of every law. Then Yeshua offered the sentence that thundered through the centuries: “On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.” Every scroll. Every instruction. Every prophecy. Every sacrifice. All of it hinged on love— a love that would soon be displayed on a wooden cross. The scribe, moved by this truth, replied: “You are right, Teacher… to love Him with all the heart, and to love one’s neighbor as oneself, is greater than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.” Yeshua smiled— a rare moment of warmth in the midst of hostility. “You are not far from the Kingdom of God.” The crowd was astonished. And for a brief moment, the noise of accusation faded away as Heaven and earth stood face to face in the simple, eternal command: Love the Lord. Love one another. ✝️ CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Bible #God #Jesus #BibleStudy #Help
