A comment about comments.

I want to thank each of you who have commented lately. 

I appreciate your feedback and I pray earnestly for the Lord to bless His Word as it goes forth in this format.

I know that many do not comment due to a fear of government reprisals or of a desire to maintain their privacy.

For those who wish to comment, please feel free to post how God is using His Word in this blog to help you in your walk with the Lord.

On the left side column of the blog is a "Contact" form that you can used to email me. I will respond to all emails as quickly as I can. 

I do not monetize the blog because the scripture speaks against using God's Word for personal gain.

The Lord has provided well for my wife and I in retirement and the cost of hosting this site is very minimal. 

This Bible study blog is a great passion I have from the Lord. 

I spend a couple hours each day studying and preparing each post, and my capable wife edits to ensure that the grammar is correct.

I praise the Father for sending His Word out to more than 160 nations in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, South America, and North America.

This is a little part of His vast Great Commission work that each Christian should be actively participating in.

I pray that each of us will be a faithful ambassador for Jesus Christ, wherever we live. 

Let us do all things heartily as unto the Lord.

Bob

Hymn Story of "Sunshine in My Soul Today"

  Good afternoon.. I have a great hymn history to share with you today. One of the outstanding hymn writers was Eliza Hewitt. This hymn "Sunshine in My Soul Today" was written by Eliza after she suffered a serious injury. The lyrics and an excellent performance of the hymn are included. Psalm 92:1 “I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name,  O thou most High.” In 1851 Eliza Edmunds Hewitt was born, and grew to be valedictorian of her class and a school teacher in Pennsylvania.   At some point in her teaching career an unruly student struck her on the back with a piece of heavy slate.   This injury left Eliza in a heavy cast for months, confined to her room. During this time of painful confinement, Eliza was determined not to be bitter, and started writing hymns.   Many of them were praise hymns, such as:   Stepping in the Light, Singing I Go, Victory in Jesus and many more. When she was able to go outside for the first time on...

Elohim: the first name of God used in the Bible

-
I thought it might be helpful to look with you a bit regarding the very first name of God we encounter in the Bible. The Hebrew word translated "God" in Genesis 1 is "Elohim." Genesis 1:1-2 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Elohim is the English spelling of a Hebrew name of God.  You might ask, “When will I know when this name Elohim appears in the Old Testament?”  Our translators translated the Hebrew name Elohim as “God” 2,606 times in the plural form and “God” 245 times from its singular form.  Elohim or God appears 31 times in the first chapter of Genesis.  Why did God give us many different names for Himself?   God is an infinite being.  God is without limits.  Since He is a limitless God, He chose various Hebrew names to reveal certain facets of Himself to m...

Hymn Story of "Speak O Lord"

-

Good morning... I have a hymn for all of your to rejoice in and enjoy. This beautiful hymn was written by Stuart Towned and Keith Getty in 2005. It represents a growing and pressing need for the people of God to return to solid Bible preaching and teaching as they turn away from that which does not satisfy our soul. The verses are inserted below along with a link to hear and sing it. I hope that this hymn brings joy and passion for Christ and His Word into our hearts. Bob The story behind "Speak O Lord" One of Christianity's distinctives is that we worship a God who has spoken - who is not silent. From God the Father, speaking the world into creation, to speaking through His Living word in Christ, to speaking by His Spirit through the written word. Throughout history the word of God has transformed the most proud leaders and the most hopeless victims, the greatest civilisations and the remotest of villages, in every age to every corner of the world...
