This sin of the young men was very great in the Lord’s sight, for they
were treating the Lord’s off ering with contempt, (1Samuel 2:17).
Two of Eli’s sons were abusing their power as priests and God
was off ended. The off erings were given by the people to show
honor and respect to God while seeking forgiveness for their
sins.

I (John) baptize you with water for repentance. But after me will
come one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not fi t
to carry. He (Jesus) will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with
fire, (Matthew 3:11).

July is a time of slow down because of the heat and rev up because of

Renew them (the Israelites) in our day, in our time make them
known. In wrath remember mercy, (Habakkuk 3:2). Habakkuk
knew God was going to discipline His children but asked for
mercy as well as justice.

Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard, obey it,
and repent. But, if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief and you
will not know at what time I will come to you, (Revelation 3:3). We
are called to remember who’s we are. Salvation is through Jesus,
God’s Son…that truth never changes. We pray to remember
God’s truth and to trust and obey. Please continue to Pray for

As they were going out, they met a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to
carry the cross. They came to a place called Golgotha (which means” The Place of the Skull”).
There they off ered Jesus some wine to drink, mixed with gall, but after tasting it, He refused
to drink it. When they had nailed Him to the cross, they divided his clothes by casting
lots. And sitting down they kept watch over Him there, (Matthew 27:32-36). Jesus had
been beaten, mocked, spit on and up all night. His physical body was weak. Simon was
probably one of the thousands of Jews in Jerusalem because of the Passover celebration

Sanctify them by the truth, Your Word is truth. As You sent Me into the
world, I have sent them into the world. For them I sanctify Myself, that
they too may be truly sanctifi ed, (John 17:17-19). The Bible is our
standard…not what the world says is true. We pray to live by the
guidelines of the Bible.
