Devotion Day #14
Today’s topic is the Maccabbees, Mattathias was tested by a Seleucid official to eat pork a restrictedfood for the Jews and to make an offereing to a pagan god. This man killed the representative making a bold stance and emboldening his 5 sons to do likewise and take up the side of righteousness. Judah was…

Star of Wonder Day 13
This morning being able to read this first thing, was such a refresher to my soul. This is the final day of the Prophecy Chapters. What do you know about this man and his big important sounding name? Honestly this story seemed lost to me on the major details. I have heard of the name…

Star Of Wonder
Egypt is a special place for God, Adonai. Ms. Hunt again has done her research and 3 times Egypt came to Israel’s rescue in Bible Times. Of course this third time was centuries after Moses happened to the royal family and the Red Sea miracle. All of those events were long gone and written into…

Day #5
The topic today is the Temple. The angle she mentioned from a woman needing to purify herself by paying for the offering of 2 turtledoves and pigeons. Childbirth was different in many ways and simpler compared to the hospital settings nowadays. Oral history was a tradition for the Jews and the verse in Genesis 3:15…

Suffragist
Women fought hard to gain their vote and be given the same rights as the men in their lives had. The Feminism movement seems to have disintegrated as well. They only care about ‘my body my right’ when it comes to killing babies, but not when it comes to men forcibly taking away the word,…
