🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem 🇮🇱(8/27/25)[Prayer]





Water, Rivers, and Streams in the Bible
Proverbs 8:22-36

“The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works,[a][b]
    before his deeds of old;
23  I was formed long ages ago,
    at the very beginning, when the world came to be.
24  When there were no watery depths, I was given birth,
    when there were no springs overflowing with water;
25  before the mountains were settled in place,
    before the hills, I was given birth,
26  before he made the world or its fields
    or any of the dust of the earth.
27  I was there when he set the heavens in place,
    when he marked out the horizon on the face of the deep,
28  when he established the clouds above
    and fixed securely the fountains of the deep,
29  when he gave the sea its boundary
    so the waters would not overstep his command,
and when he marked out the foundations of the earth.
30      Then I was constantly[c] at his side.
I was filled with delight day after day,
    rejoicing always in his presence,
31  rejoicing in his whole world
    and delighting in mankind.
32  “Now then, my children, listen to me;
    blessed are those who keep my ways.
33  Listen to my instruction and be wise;
    do not disregard it.
34  Blessed are those who listen to me,
    watching daily at my doors,
    waiting at my doorway.
35  For those who find me find life
    and receive favor from the Lord.
36  But those who fail to find me harm themselves;
    all who hate me love death.”

In Today's Scripture we see"Wisdom" personified as a lovely, wise woman, whom God created even before He created the Earth. Lady Wisdom (also named "Sophia") was not a real person, but a poetic embodiment of the fact that all Wisdom comes from God. He made it in the first place. One of the wisest people I ever knew was my friend Lil. Here is a story about Lil that I shared with you many years ago:

Right off the Highway in the shadow of Big Blue Hill was a 24-Hour Howard Johnson's Restaurant. It was a favorite of Bikers and Musicians because of its late hours and proximity to the Highway. Since I am both, I spent a lot of time there, but my late husband Mike and I noticed that EVERY time we ate there, something weird would happen. Sometimes it was just a crazy customer, sometimes a natural phenomenon, but always SOMETHING. We had a private joke that it had been probably built upon an Ancient Indian Burial Ground, and that Chief Chiccatawbut (the REAL Chief of the local tribe during Colonial times) was offended. This was further augmented when the Massachusetts Inter-tribal Pow-wow took place every year in the fields across the street. We called the restaurant "THE HAUNTED HOJO'S".

My dear friend Lil was on leave from her missionary journey in Romania, and was scheduled to speak at my church to raise funds, so the three of us stopped at The Haunted Hojo's for breakfast on the way. She and I were both dressed entirely in the Romanian National Costume, but we figured that The Pow-Wow dancers always came in in full regalia so we didn't look TOO weird...not at all.

Lil, a sensitive and spiritual lady, knew immediately that the waitress was upset about something. Although the woman was bravely trying to hide it, she was in deep distress. Still, she took our order and bravely soldiered through her Sunday Morning, and Lil and I started to pray for her quietly.

Suddenly, without warning, the manager came out from the kitchen, and LOUDLY, in front of the whole restaurant, FIRED the waitress, who then dissolved in tears, ran from the room. She still had her order book in her hand, with our breakfast orders on it.

Lil stood up, faced down the Manager and reprimanded him for being so mean, and then the three of us (two of whom looked like we belonged in the Romanian National Dance Ensemble) stormed out of the restaurant and encountered the weeping waitress in the parking lot. We gathered around her, prayed for her, comforted her, and then went along, hungry, to church.

We never ate at The Haunted Hojo's ever again, and it is no longer there. Lil and Mike are also passed. I, alone, am left to tell the tale.


While "Song of Solomon" is considered King Solomon's most intimate poetry, this short Passage about "Lady Wisdom" is, in my opinion, much more "romantic". By personifying Wisdom as a beautiful woman, Solomon reveals his most secret desire. He could have any woman he wanted (and DID!), but when asked by God what he wanted most, he replied "Wisdom".

Some scholars argue that this is a personification of Christ, , but, in my most humble opinion, I respectfully disagree. First of all, because the character is female, I don't see it referring to Jesus. Secondly, Lady Wisdom is created. Jesus, on the other hand, is Eternal. Some of the attributes of Wisdom are Christlike, because He is the All-Wise God, after all.

My Friend Lil was the wisest lady I ever met, BECAUSE she pointed people to Jesus.

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

”Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.” (Hosea 6:3 NIV)

Psalm 91

1 You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,*
2 will say to the Lord, ‘My refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.’
3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence;
4 he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
5 You will not fear the terror of the night,
or the arrow that flies by day,
6 or the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
or the destruction that wastes at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the Lord your refuge,*
the Most High your dwelling-place,
10 no evil shall befall you,
no scourge come near your tent.

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the adder,
the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.

14 Those who love me, I will deliver;
I will protect those who know my name.
15 When they call to me, I will answer them;
I will be with them in trouble,
I will rescue them and honour them.
16 With long life I will satisfy them,
and show them my salvation.
