The wall of insights
What touches you in Scripture? What can we pray for? What can we thank God for?
Thank You for Jehu's honest answer, "What peace, so long as the prostitution of your mother Jezebel and her witchcraft…Thank You for Jehu's honest answer, "What peace, so long as the prostitution of your mother Jezebel and her witchcraft abound?" I'm grateful You refuse to call things peaceful while idols still stand, and that You name my sin so real peace can come.
Father, teach me to hold money loosely and people closely. Let what passes through my hands make room for someone…Father, teach me to hold money loosely and people closely. Let what passes through my hands make room for someone else, build friendship, open a door. When my resources run out, I want to find that love was the only lasting investment.
Job, in his agony, dreams of the grave and what he pictures there is telling: "There the prisoners are at…Job, in his agony, dreams of the grave and what he pictures there is telling: "There the prisoners are at ease together. They don't hear the voice of the taskmaster." Not riches, not vindication. Just silence from the voice that drives him.
What voice are you hoping death will finally quiet? And have you mistaken it for God's?
Father, when the things I counted as fixed come loose and fall like fruit shaken from a tree, hold me.…Father, when the things I counted as fixed come loose and fall like fruit shaken from a tree, hold me. I don't understand all that shakes this world, but I know you are not shaken. Keep my heart steady in you when the sky itself seems to give way.
Joshua went that night into the middle of the valley." Not the hilltop, not a safe tent behind the lines.…Joshua went that night into the middle of the valley." Not the hilltop, not a safe tent behind the lines. The valley, in the dark, at the very place where Israel had run in defeat not long before. God sent him back to the scene of his failure, and he slept there. Where is the ground you are avoiding?
About Faith.Network

Disclaimer: Faith.network uses automated language models to prepare Bible studies and reflections. All content is generated from the Bible text itself and checked daily by an independent, automated quality control: random samples from every language site are scored on faithfulness to Scripture, verbatim Bible quotation, language and clarity, and the results are published unedited. Even so, no explanation is infallible and mistakes can occur. Nothing on this platform constitutes professional advice, and no rights can be derived from its content.
