Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem




The Book of Proverbs
Chapter 9



The Way of Wisdom

1. Wisdom has built her house,
She has hewn out her seven pillars;
2. She has slaughtered her meat,
She has mixed her wine,
She has also furnished her table.
3. She has sent out her maidens,
She cries out from the highest places of the city,
4. “ Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!”
As for him who lacks understanding, she says to him,
5. “ Come, eat of my bread
And drink of the wine I have mixed.
6. Forsake foolishness and live,
And go in the way of understanding.
7. “ He who corrects a scoffer gets shame for himself,
And he who rebukes a wicked man only harms himself.
8. Do not correct a scoffer, lest he hate you;
Rebuke a wise man, and he will love you.
9. Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser;
Teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.
10. “ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom,
And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
11. For by me your days will be multiplied,
And years of life will be added to you.
12. If you are wise, you are wise for yourself,
And if you scoff, you will bear it alone.”

The Way of Folly

13. A foolish woman is clamorous;
She is simple, and knows nothing.
14. For she sits at the door of her house,
On a seat by the highest places of the city,
15. To call to those who pass by,
Who go straight on their way:
16. “ Whoever is simple, let him turn in here”;
And as for him who lacks understanding, she says to him,
17. “ Stolen water is sweet,
And bread eaten in secret is pleasant.”
18. But he does not know that the dead are there,
That her guests are in the depths of hell.

Keep us From Temptation, Oh LORD.
There are so many idols that can distract us,
Not only of silver and gold,
But of flesh and blood,
Philosophies and Theories,
Electronic Vanities that take our Eyes off You,
Politics and Sports,
Entertainment and Careers.
Even good and decent things can be idols if they distract us from You.
lead Us Not Into temptation,
But Deliver Us From Evil.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem






Seven Pillars of Wisdom.
They have been likened to the list in Isaiah:
Understanding,
Counsel,
Wisdom,
Knowledge,
Righteousness,
Power,
And Most Important: Fear Of The LORD.
Proverbs tells us that The Fear of the LORD is the BEGINNING of Wisdom!
The other Six Pillars Follow.

This reference is very Famous. Lawrence of Arabia's book about his adventures was titled "The Seven Pillars of Wisdom", and there is a Mountain in Jordan with this same name. But None of the Pillars will stand up without "Fear of The LORD."
This Chapter is in the style of Ancient Hebrew Poetry, which uses Contrast for Emphasis.
The Contrast is between Wisdom and Folly, and a Sharp Contrast it most certainly is!

Come and pray For The Peace of Jerusalem.

The battle is still raging and the most powerful weapon will be used until ordered to cease.

Psalm 94

God the Avenger of the Righteous

1 O Lord, you God of vengeance,
you God of vengeance, shine forth!
2 Rise up, O judge of the earth;
give to the proud what they deserve!
3 O Lord, how long shall the wicked,
how long shall the wicked exult?

4 They pour out their arrogant words;
all the evildoers boast.
5 They crush your people, O Lord,
and afflict your heritage.
6 They kill the widow and the stranger,
they murder the orphan,
7 and they say, ‘The Lord does not see;
the God of Jacob does not perceive.’

8 Understand, O dullest of the people;
fools, when will you be wise?
9 He who planted the ear, does he not hear?
He who formed the eye, does he not see?
10 He who disciplines the nations,
he who teaches knowledge to humankind,
does he not chastise?
11 The Lord knows our thoughts,*
that they are but an empty breath.

12 Happy are those whom you discipline, O Lord,
and whom you teach out of your law,
13 giving them respite from days of trouble,
until a pit is dug for the wicked.
14 For the Lord will not forsake his people;
he will not abandon his heritage;
15 for justice will return to the righteous,
and all the upright in heart will follow it.

16 Who rises up for me against the wicked?
Who stands up for me against evildoers?
17 If the Lord had not been my help,
my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.
18 When I thought, ‘My foot is slipping’,
your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up.
19 When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul.
20 Can wicked rulers be allied with you,
those who contrive mischief by statute?
21 They band together against the life of the righteous,
and condemn the innocent to death.
22 But the Lord has become my stronghold,
and my God the rock of my refuge.
23 He will repay them for their iniquity
and wipe them out for their wickedness;
the Lord our God will wipe them out.

Heavenly Father may you continue to bring an overwhelming, crushing defeat on the forces of darkness in our nation, may you smash every crooked deed they try to hold onto power and may this be so convincing that everyone knows that your hand is in this. Then we may bring the light of your Gospel to the nations as you did this time in history:

http://jn1838.blogspot.com/2010/02/battle-of-lepanto-battle-that-saved.html

May you undo every harmful policy and piece of legislation they have passed that is harmful to this nation. This day we shatter the clay jar of Jeremiah 19 in their faces

To: DarthVader
Darth, thank you, for the daily posting of Psalm 94.

It is good to read it every day. We tend to read and move on ... because we have read it many times, yet, if we ponder the words we grow in understanding more and more. No other way to do it layer upon layer our knowledge increases to ever deeper levels. Some may be graced with the Holy Spirit giving Divine knowledge to the few that are especially selected to wisdom and insight. First we must believe that we will receive what it is we pray for God to grant.
_________________________________________________________
James 1:5-8 (King James Version)

5. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

6. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

7. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

8. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
___________________________________________________________II am in agreement with the prayer AMEN> May I add a prayer for the restoration of America, restoration of our Faith, restoration of attention to God Almighty , His power, presence, His mercy, and His loving kindness. Heartfelt thanksgiving and gratitude for our peoples and how America has been richly blessed by the LORD God of Creation. Abby Father, We adore Thee. amen.

Woe to you all evil doers in the Government of the United States!!! This treachery against the people of this nation and freedom loving individuals around the world this day is your last mistake. You shall drink bitter waters from this day forth and your destruction will be complete. This passage from My word testifies of your fate:

Jeremiah 19

The Broken Earthenware Jug

19Thus said the Lord: Go and buy a potter’s earthenware jug. Take with you* some of the elders of the people and some of the senior priests, 2and go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom at the entry of the Potsherd Gate, and proclaim there the words that I tell you. 3You shall say: Hear the word of the Lord, O kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I am going to bring such disaster upon this place that the ears of everyone who hears of it will tingle. 4Because the people have forsaken me, and have profaned this place by making offerings in it to other gods whom neither they nor their ancestors nor the kings of Judah have known, and because they have filled this place with the blood of the innocent, 5and gone on building the high places of Baal to burn their children in the fire as burnt-offerings to Baal, which I did not command or decree, nor did it enter my mind; 6therefore the days are surely coming, says the Lord, when this place shall no more be called Topheth, or the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of Slaughter. 7And in this place I will make void the plans of Judah and Jerusalem, and will make them fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life. I will give their dead bodies for food to the birds of the air and to the wild animals of the earth. 8And I will make this city a horror, a thing to be hissed at; everyone who passes by it will be horrified and will hiss because of all its disasters. 9And I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and all shall eat the flesh of their neighbours in the siege, and in the distress with which their enemies and those who seek their life afflict them.

10 Then you shall break the jug in the sight of those who go with you, 11and shall say to them: Thus says the Lord of hosts: So will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter’s vessel, so that it can never be mended. In Topheth they shall bury until there is no more room to bury. 12Thus will I do to this place, says the Lord, and to its inhabitants, making this city like Topheth. 13And the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah shall be defiled like the place of Topheth—all the houses upon whose roofs offerings have been made to the whole host of heaven, and libations have been poured out to other gods.

14 When Jeremiah came from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to prophesy, he stood in the court of the Lord’s house and said to all the people: 15Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I am now bringing upon this city and upon all its towns all the disaster that I have pronounced against it, because they have stiffened their necks, refusing to hear my words.
