Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem




Genesis 6

Wickedness in the World

6 When human beings began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them, 2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose. 3 Then the Lord said, “My Spirit will not contend with[a] humans forever, for they are mortal[b]; their days will be a hundred and twenty years.”

4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.

5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.

Praise ye the LORD.

Oh LORD, Our God,
How Excellent Is Your Name Over All The Earth!
We Praise and Worship You,
For You Alone Are Worthy,

You Alone Are The One True God!
Blessed Are You Oh LORD, Our God,
King of the Universe,

LORD of Hosts,
Rock of All Ages!

Let all that has been Concealed
Be Revealed.

Father, We Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem,
According To Your Will and Promise.
We Pray That You Will Forgive The Sins
of Our Own Nation,
and Lead us all to Godly Repentance.
Create in Us Clean Hearts, Oh LORD,
and Renew a Right Spirit Within Us.

About 40 years ago, my Aunt Mary taught me how to quilt. Since I was already a Graphic Artist and knew how to sew, quilting became very natural for me, and I went into it as an Art Form rather than just making bed covers. Banners for Church, landscape scenes, abstract fiber art, etc, just about flew from my fingers and became an obsession. People gave me their fabric scraps, and I used up a whole room in my house for storing them. It was getting a little weird, actually.

Somebody in the fabric business gave me a huge collection of faux-fur samples. There were Zebra Stripes, Tiger Stripes, Leopard and Cheetah Spots, Giraffe Splotches and several other Animal Prints. They were very "kitschy" and wouldn't fit into a traditional quilt...except one based on Noah's Ark. My sister was expecting a baby, so I went to work on a crib-sized appliqué quilt of the animals exiting the Ark, two by two, with a rainbow in the sky, using the faux fur as the actual animals they represented. It was a nice, whimsical piece and my Sister had it for many years. Because faux-fur is a type of polyester, the whole thing may have disintigrated by now. There is a reason the Torah tells us not to mix two kinds of fabric together in a garment, because the fibers decay at different rates and pull apart. I threw caution to the wind and mixed silk, nylon, polyester, cotton, wool, faux fur, and rayon to make the quilt, because I was using the fibers for their colors rather than their content. Although the Torah was probably using the admonition about fabric to teach people to be Holy and Separate from corruption, the Law had a practical application as well.

The whimsical and delightful illustrations in Children's Bibles of Noah's Ark are a staple in literature. There are far fewer depictions of the mysterious corruption of humanity that preceeded the Ark and the Animals. Even a casual reading of the opening passage of Genesis 6 indicates that there was something very creepy going on. The word that comes up is Nephelim, which is sometimes translated as "Giants". The previous verse indicates that there was some kind of genetic reason for the Nephelim, and talks about "the daughters of men and the sons of God". Everybody has a theory as to who these were, but nobody has the definitive answer. Although there are some clues in the Apocrypha, the origin of the corruption that preceeded the Flood seems to be genetic in nature.

Without getting into a debate about GMO products (hot passion on both sides of the issue), or mRNA vaccines, (same thing), just remember that Jesus said that the end of days would come "just as in the days of Noah". It is something to think about.

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

Many good points about pre-flood. I admit I watch Ancient Aliens and they talk about the Nephilim. And they show evidence of ancient ruins buried, that have remarkable intelligence behind them. I wonder if these were pre-flood.

Anyway, as the Old Spiritual says—I got a home in that rock—God gave Noah the rainbow sigh, no more water, but fire next time....

Joining in prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem and for our beloved America.
