Wednesday, 29 November 2023   “And since I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of those who were with me, I came into Damascus. Acts 22:11   Paul was just instructed by the Lord to arise and go into Damascus where he would be told all the things appointed for him to do. Continuing the narrative, he next says, “And since I could not see for the glory of that light.”   This verse explains the blindness of chapter 9. The reason for his blindness might be inferred from the words there, but it was not stated. Now, the reason is explicitly given. The glory of the light was so intense upon his eyes that he could no longer see.   It is both an argument for the authenticity of the account because Paul personally explains what happened and also a note to the people that what he beheld was exceedingly glorious. It is a reminder to them of the glory of the Lord that Moses beheld. It was because of this glory that he veiled his face –   “Now it was so, when Moses came down from Mount Sinai (and the two tablets of the Testimony were in Moses' hand when he came down from the mountain), that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he talked with Him. 30 So when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him. 31 Then Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him; and Moses talked with them. 32 Afterward all the children of Israel came near, and he gave them as commandments all that the Lord had spoken with him on Mount Sinai. 33 And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. 34 But whenever Moses went in before the Lord to speak with Him, he would take the veil off until he came out; and he would come out and speak to the children of Israel whatever he had been commanded. 35 And whenever the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone, then Moses would put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with Him.”   Paul will later explain the theological importance of what happened to Moses –   “Therefore, since we have such hope, we use great boldness of speech— 13 unlike Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the end of what was passing away. 14 But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ. 15 But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart. 16 Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 3:12-18   Paul was so steeped in reveling in his own efforts through law observance that when he encountered the glory of the Lord, he was literally blinded by the goodness that he saw. The grace of God in Jesus Christ simply overwhelmed him.   Of all people, Paul understood the theological implications of the dulling of spiritual senses because of the law. Eyes are blinded, ears are covered over, and hearts are made dull. These types of manifestations of the effects of the law are seen in Scripture, and they are seen in the lives and conduct of people throughout the world today.   With these things understood, Paul continues with, “being led by the hand of those who were with me, I came into Damascus.”   Rather, both verbs are present participles – “being led by the hand” and “being with me.” Paul is conveying the events in a lively manner for the crowd gathered before him. As for the word translated as “being led by the hand,” this is the second and last use of cheiragógeó in the Bible. Its other use was in Acts 9:8.   Also, the word translated as “being with me,” suneimi, is found only here and in Luke 9:18. Luke masterfully uses the Greek language to convey what Paul would have said to the audience in their native dialect.   Life application: Referring to the idea of senses being dulled, at the time of Isaiah's commissioning by the Lord, he was told –   “And He said, ‘Go, and tell this people: “Keep on hearing, but do not understand; Keep on seeing, but do not perceive.”' 10 ‘Make the heart of this people dull, And their ears heavy, And shut their eyes; Lest they see with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart, And return and be healed.'” Isaiah 6:9, 10   Jesus used those words to explain why He spoke as He did to the people –   “Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. 14 And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says: ‘Hearing you will hear and shall not understand, And seeing you will see and not perceive; 15 For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.'” Matthew 13:13-15   The people lived under the law. They thought it was what made them holy and distinct above all else, and they conducted their lives as such. It is true that the law was given to distinguish them from all other people, but the law reflects the Lord's will for them. Thus, it is ultimately the Lord who sets Israel apart.   Their history had shown them that the law could not save them. They should have been jubilant at the coming of the perfect Savior who would remove this burden from upon them. But they could not see the truth of who He is.   As noted, this continues throughout the world today, and it does so in some very surprising places. Not only is Israel still affected by this, but supposed churches also are. They have returned to the law, given up on the grace of God in Christ, and they have their senses dulled because of this.   Grace! The Bible is trying to tell us (if we will only pay heed!) that the ultimate glory that we can behold is the grace of God. It is the greatness of the glory of God found in Jesus Christ that reveals that to us. Do not mar grace. Rather, embrace it. Rejoice in it. And thank God for it all the days of your life. You don't need more law. Rather, you need grace. Cling to what God has done. It is all about Jesus.   Heavenly Father, thank You for Your glory revealed. Thank You for the grace that is found in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Stakeholders at Patrick Henry High School are considering changing the name of the school in light of his slave ownership. Jason thinks it's just a name of a building and not essential to the identity of the school. So why do people cling?

The book of Romans has been praised by theologians as a masterful explanation of the doctrine of salvation. Martin Luther in fact called the book “the clearest gospel of all.” The bulk of Romans, chapters 1-11, consists of Paul explaining how God has acted in Christ to reconcile sinners to himself and grant them eternal life through his Spirit. But in chapter 12, Paul get's practical for the believers in Rome. Commentator Douglas Moo, says that in chapters 12-15 Paul “urges Christians to manifest the power of the gospel in specific areas of day-to-day life.” It is within this context that we find, in Romans 12:9 a key admonition toward gospel living: “Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good.”In today's article, Matt Rusten explores how this admonition towards gospel living applies to our immediate day-to-day lives in the world of investing. What does this admonition have to say about the way we allow the gospel to transform our lives as investors?On this episode:Matt Galyon, Associate Director, ECFI Matt Rusten, President, Made to Flourish Notes & Links: View our Courses These communication herein is provided for informational purposes only and was made possible with the financial support of Eventide Asset Management, LLC (“Eventide”), an investment adviser.

Dizziness struck me in the stairwell of the office building. Overwhelmed, I gripped the banister because the stairs seemed to spin. As my heart pounded and my legs buckled, I clung onto the banister, thankful for its strength. Medical tests showed I had anemia. Although its cause wasn’t serious and my condition was resolved, I’ll never forget how weak I felt that day. That’s why I admire the woman who touched Jesus. She not only moved through the crowd in her weakened state, but she also showed faith in venturing out to approach Him. She had good reason to be afraid: Jewish law defined her as unclean and by exposing others to her uncleanness, she could be punished (Leviticus 15:25−27). But the thought, If I only touch His cloak kept her going. The Greek word that is translated as “touch” in Matthew 9:21 is not mere touching but has the stronger meaning of “to hold onto” or “to attach oneself.” The woman tightly held onto Jesus. She believed He could heal her. Jesus saw, in the midst of a crowd, the desperate faith of one woman. When we too venture out in faith and cling to Christ in our need, He welcomes us and comes to our aid. We can tell Him our story without fear of rejection or punishment. Jesus tells us today, “Cling to me.”

Prayer is the calm believers can access in the chaos of life. ~~~ The world around us is in chaos. How's your heart? A dear friend of mine used to call me and say, “hey I just needed to hear your voice and check your temperature”. It was so funny but I loved it, because what it meant was she was calling to check on me. She was calling to see how my heart was. There were seasons of life we walked together that weren't easy so she would check in. That's a good friend. We need to check in with one another. So consider this your heart check in. How's your temperature? Is it rising? If you haven't noticed, the heat is rising around us. The world, in places, is in utter chaos, destruction and confusion. We may be in a bubble for now, but ready yourself church, the battle is looming at our door. This of course is no surprise to God, who is and will always be on the throne. If your heart is troubled, because you are human and the evil spreading around the world is hard to understand and our hearts are breaking for those hurting, remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 16:33, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” The disciples had seen a lot in their time with Jesus, but it was about to all go down. Jesus was about to be arrested and crucified. They were about to scatter and didn't even know it, even though Jesus literally had just told them they would. Still, Jesus' words ring loud and clear in my ears, ‘take heart! I have overcome the world.' We know how it ends yet we are still on the journey. The battle has been won, yet the war is raging. Friends, don't let your heart be troubled even in the midst of trouble. Cling to the HOPE we have in Jesus and SHINE joy and peace today so bright that those around you will see and not be able to understand. So they'll ask, “how do you stay cool and calm in the chaos and heat that is rising around us?” And when they do, you can tell them, “Jesus”. If you're struggling today with being calm in the chaos I want to give you a very practical way to pray your way to peace. The Bible tells us how in Philippians 4:6-7. Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Did you catch how to pray your way to peace? We are to worry about what? Nothing. That's step number one. If you're mind is consumed by fear and worry, begin your prayer by confessing your lack of trust in God. Lay down what's heavy on your heart and TRUST God with it. He IS who He says He is and He is faithful to the end. The next step is to pray about it all, everything! Go to the Lord in prayer with ALL the things, every circumstance, all the details and even as you pour your heart out, you will feel it begin to grow lighter. He IS near your broken heart. He sees your need and He is with you. And the final piece is thanksgiving. As you pray, as you pour out your heart, as you lay your burdens and your worry down, give thanks. Give thanks in knowing He is able. Give thanks in the fact you can go boldly to the throne of grace and talk to a loving Father who hears you. Give thanks He IS in control and holds this world in His hands. What follows is peace. Yes we may not know what tomorrow may bring, but no matter what, God holds it. That's the truth. We will not be shaken by what shakes this world because our hope is in Jesus. He is and always will be my calm in the chaos. I'm Lori Cline.

Stocks on Wall Street reclaimed positive territory Tuesday afternoon amid the year's best rally as investors were lifted by renewed confidence in the Federal Reserve ending its rate hiking campaign this year.

It is now November, and that simple change in month means that so many of us are starting to think about the holidays—planning and buying gifts and decorating. But for some of us, holidays also bring along a bit of sadness or stress. Holidays can be hard for numerous reasons. It could be that a loved one has passed during the year, and so it's our first time celebrating without them. It could be that we are unable to gather with our family or friends, and being alone doesn't really feel like much of a reason to celebrate. But the question is, is it even possible to celebrate and give thanks when you are grieving? I believe you can. And that's why I want to offer you three truths today that I want you to remember as we head into this holiday season.

Welcome to another episode of the Period Recovery Podcast!This week, I'm thrilled to share an inspiring conversation with Katrina, a remarkable former client of mine. Katrina grew up as an athlete & never thought her active & over-achieving lifestyle was hurting her. Katrina opens up about losing her period & how she got it back in record time. She also shares all of the challenges she faced when she lost her period and the triumphant moment she reclaimed it.In our chat, Katrina shared some profound insights:Recognizing that your struggles are valid can often start when someone you love acknowledges them. It helps solidify that your feelings are real and not just a figment of your imagination.When others make judgments or comments behind your back, remember, it reflects more on them than on you. There's no obligation for you to accept or own others' perceptions of you.Cling to your core values. In moments of adversity, let your beliefs guide and ground you, reminding you of who you are and what truly matters.Join us as we navigate through these personal revelations and celebrate Katrina's journey toward healing and recovery!Enjoy this episode!Cynthia Apply for coaching w/Cynthia: https://p.bttr.to/3ybjfOb Website: https://www.periodnutritionist.com  Instagram: www.instagram.com/period.nutritionistFor the full show notes - please visit my website: periodnutritionist.com

Speak, even when your voice shakes, and you feel like rage crying. This special episode provides greater historical context to Israel and Palestine, elevates voices on the frontlines of the humanitarian crisis, demands an immediate ceasefire and a united global democratic alliance to end the genocide of Palestinians, and amplifies the calls for a political solution.  The crisis cannot be solved militarily. The bombs raining down on the open air prison of Gaza is a genocide–another Nakba, the Arabic word for “catastrophe”–which in 1948 saw the brutal mass forced displacement of around a million Palestinians with the founding of Israel. We're witnessing the long awaited war by indicted corrupt criminal and Putin ally Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's longest serving prime minister, desperate to cling to power, even if that means turning Israel into another theocratic dictatorship in the region. The racist, genocidal movement that assassinated former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin for signing the Oslo Accords, a path towards peace and potentially a two-state solution, brought Netanyahu to power. And now his government of Stephen Millers is determined to finish off Palestinians, mass-murdering several thousands, including a significant number of children.  Secretary of State Antony Blinken published a call for a ceasefire on Twitter, only to delete it after Republicans protested. That and more of the US response, what it means for the civilians on both sides of the conflict, the US election and more are discussed in this extra furious episode. This week's bonus episode will include answers to questions submitted by listeners subscribed at the Democracy Defender level and higher, and a special on-the-ground look at the upcoming Virginia state elections and the recent voter-purge by Governor Glenn Youngkin.

Learning to worship, and to be content in all circumstances is not something that comes easily to most of us. When we have endured many stern and bruising challenges, it can be hard to pursue and grasp hold of that spirit. Having found, or more probably rediscovered it, however, knowing when to rest in contentment, and when (and how) to resist something that is not right, is a matter of both experience and discernment. (Compare Luke 3:14, 1 Tim. 6:8 and Heb. 13:5 with James 4:7 and 1 Pet. 5:9) One thing is for certain, all who are eager to move in the power of God will inevitably find themselves going through many tests and trials, just as David did – however much smaller out own may be. As the Jewish sage Joshua ben Sirach reminds us, My child, when you come to serve the Lord, prepare yourself for testing. Set your heart right and be steadfast, and do not be impetuous in time of calamity. Cling to Him and do not depart, so that your last days may be prosperous. Accept whatever befalls you, and in times of humiliation be patient. For gold is tested in the fire, and those found acceptable, in the furnace of humiliation. Trust in Him, and He will help you; make your ways straight, and hope in Him. You who fear the Lord, wait for His mercy; do not stray, or else you may fall. You who fear the Lord, trust in Him, and your reward will not be lost. (Sirach 2:1-8 NRSV) The Scriptures remind us so often that we are not able ultimately to control events, and that we are not meant to be self-reliant but rather rooted and grounded in God – especially when inevitable tests come our way. It is so helpful to remember that, when the devil is tempting us, the Lord is often using the occasion to test and try our soul, so that we might ‘come forth as gold.' (Job 23:10, 1 Pet. 1:7)

In today's message, we have Austin leading the luncheon in some good worship songs.  Donnie speaks to us a message entitled "What do you Cling to?"  We all cling to things in our lives.....a child, hobby, political party, lifestyle etc.......but do we cling to God?  Or do we only cling to him when times are tough?  Enjoy the message and share it with a co-worker.

You have heard that the enemy roams like a roaring Lion seeking those he would devour, but practically, what does that look like or sound like? (1 Peter 5:8) Sometimes, it can look like illness in your body or even your friends turning on you. What you are facing right now is REAL. But even as you wade through whatever your friends or even your spouse is telling you, CLING to the Lord. Because if God is in control of all of it. God knows that your faith can withstand it, because He has measured it.    Monologue: Autumn talks of her family's traditions and celebrations for the fall.  Message: After the break, Autumn shows how each person closest to Job not only couldn't understand his circumstances, but they gave him poor advice. However, Job kept his faith and was rewarded for it. Question: “How do you talk to your young kids about death and heaven in a way that makes sense to them?"  Praise Report: A listener shares what God did for them when their mother passed after a long, hardfought life.    Bible References: Job 2, 4:7, 8:5-8, 11, 42 Mark 12:29-30 Matthew 16:23 James 4:7   Links from the show BOOKS: www.autumnmiles.com/resources SPEAKING: www.autumnmiles.com/speaking MERCH: autumnmiles.square.site   If you have a question for Autumn, testimony to share, or other inquiry for the Autumn Miles Ministries, click here and fill out the form, or send us an email at hello@autumnmiles.com    Join us on social media!

In my new Broncos pod presented by SuperBook Sports, Denver found a creative way to lose, blowing an 18-point lead to a team with a quarterback making his first road start. Denver cannot finish defensively, and offensively coach Sean Payton expressed frustration with Russell Wilson's inability to get the team in and out of the huddle. My pod is made possible by the great folks at Mile High Sports, Hoggatt Injury Law, RBJ Glass and Most Valuable Portraits Inc.

The NL wild card race is living up to its name. The San Francisco Giants find themselves in the thick of a wild race to the finish, and despite getting rained out yesterday, the Giants had a great day. The D-backs, Reds, and Marlins all lost, which pushed the SF Giants into a virtual tie for the third and final wild card spot. However, the Giants' winning percentage is slightly higher than the teams they're "tied" with (AZ and CIN have played two more games and are 1-1 in them). The Giants also have important tiebreaker advantages. If they were to tie with the Reds, the Giants would win outright without playing a Game 163. The SF Giants only need to win one of their two remaining games against the D-backs to win that season series. The Giants and Marlins split their season series, and the next tiebreaker is intradivision record, which is also an advantage for the Giants. So their playoff odds are certainly on the rise and things would be looking good even in the event of an eventual tie. Giants chairman Greg Johnson made comments that he firmly stood behind Farhan Zaidi and Gabe Kapler. There had recently been some rumbling about discontent among ownership, particularly with Kapler, and that firings could be made if the team fails to reach the playoffs. But Johnson put that idea to rest, stating that both would be back in 2024. Luis Matos survived a roster crunch as Michael Conforto was activated. Matos has really been playing well, and so it was infielder Casey Schmitt who was optioned even though Conforto is an outfielder. Find and follow Locked On Giants on your favorite podcast platforms:

Cling to Christ Rev 2:18-29#Nightlight #RTTBROS #RevelationRevealed RR9 Revelation 2:18-19 KJVS - 18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass; 19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first The church in Thyatira faced an onslaught of false teaching. A self-proclaimed prophetess promoted sexual immorality and idol worship, leading many believers astray. Her poisonous words undermined God's truth and tainted their community. But Jesus saw beyond the surface struggles to the hearts of His faithful followers. He affirmed their "love, faith, service and perseverance" (v.19). Despite the surrounding darkness, rays of light still shone in Thyatira. Christ encouraged them to hold unswervingly to Him, reminding them of His piercing eyes that see all. He searches minds, discerns motives, and judges each one's work (v.23). We cannot hide our sin from the One whose feet blaze like burnished bronze. Just as Jesus exposed the false prophetess' wickedness, He also saw the faithful few who rejected her lies. To them He promised authority to rule the nations and the morning star (v.28) - Christ Himself, the One who rises like the dawn to scatter sin's dreadful night. Take courage, believer. When immorality is called good and lies are upheld as truth, fix your eyes on Jesus. Cling to His commands. Patiently endure every hardship for His name's sake. Sin's pleasures quickly fade but its wages endure forever. The faithful will be rewarded with imperishable crowns. Stand strong. Jesus sees you, knows you, and loves you. He will soon make all things new. Stand firm on God's truth when the culture is compromised and cling to Christ amidst corruption. Our Podcast, Blog and YouTube Links https://linktr.ee/rttbros

Today, we begin part one of the book of JOB, maybe one of the hardest books in the Bible to process. Autumn will unpack the hardship allowed in his life and the why behind it. Job faced nightmare upon nightmare upon nightmare. How could God have let such terrible things happen to a man who was found blameless, upright, fearing God, turning away evil, and faithful enough to be known in heaven as a celebrity of faith? When you ask yourself, “God, where are you in all of this?” When you begin to question, “Am I doing this for me, or am I doing this for God?” When your faith is beginning to seem not worth it anymore, this is the time to fight for it the most. The enemy's goal is to separate you from God, but God chose you for this because of your faith. Cling to the Lord. He knows, and He is at the end of this nightmare you've found yourself facing.   Monologue: Autumn shares how she and Eddie teach their wizened faith to their kids' young minds.  Message: After the break, Autumn unpacks who Job was, why he was chosen by God, and what kind of example Job actually is to the faithful believers. Question: “Do you have advice on how to lovingly shut down gossip when someone brings it up in conversation?"  Praise Report: A listener shares how a slew of trials they faced were met with God's goodness and provision and healing.    Bible References: Psalm 71:20-21 Job 1:1-12 1 Peter 5:8 Psalm 91:1-2, 4, 11-12   Links from the show BOOKS: www.autumnmiles.com/resources SPEAKING: www.autumnmiles.com/speaking MERCH: autumnmiles.square.site   If you have a question for Autumn, testimony to share, or other inquiry for the Autumn Miles Ministries, click here and fill out the form, or send us an email at hello@autumnmiles.com    Join us on social media!

Wedding vows are pledges of loyalty and faithfulness to a spouse. You never hear a groom promising to “love, honor and cherish, but I'm still going to date some other girls on the side.” A good relationship is defined by how much we do for the other...not by how much we can get away with just ‘cause we want to. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out that same dynamic applies in our spiritual lives...as we cling to the Lord, and resist our spiritual adversary.
