Relationships are not easy, and yet when we have harmonious relationships, it's something to celebrate. Join us for a light-hearted study in Psalm 133 as we look at the importance of unity and how to find it and how to maintain it. DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. Today's study is about unity. How would you define unity? What is it based on? What sustains unity? What breaks it? 2. How does verse 1 characterize unity? Since we know that David wrote this psalm, where were some places where we know he did not experience this kind of unity? 3. Although verse 2 might seem a bit gross to us, precious oil was an important part of their ancient culture. How was oil used? What did it signify? How would its aroma be something people would want to have on them? 4. Why does David compare it to the dew of Mount Hermon? Why would dew have been a blessing in that part of the world? How would its cool waters refresh the people? How is this a picture of unity? 5. The podcast took some time to read over John 17. Why do you think the Lord prayed for the unity of His people in verses 21 to 23? According to John 17:15, who seeks to divide God's people? What are some of his tactics? How can God's people be on guard against him? 6. Is there any place of disunity in your life? If so, how are you contributing to the problem? Are there any changes you can make to pursue unity with those around you? Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis! Available on Amazon!

THE SHOWDOWN on Mount Carmel is even more spectacular than we've been taught. The story is sensational on its surface: The prophet Elijah, one of the few prophets of God still active in the northern kingdom of Israel, tells King Ahab to his face that there will be no rain until Elijah says so. Then he flees from the king and hides out for three years. During that time, the prophet was fed by ravens at the brook Cherith somewhere east of the Jordan until the drought caused the stream to dry up. Then Elijah traveled to Phoenicia and lodged with a widow of Zarephath in the region of Sidon. Because of the famine, she was prepared to make one last meal and then starve to death with her son (or children, according to the Septuagint). Miraculously, the woman did not run out of flour or oil during the entire time Elijah stayed with her. The account of the miracle of Elijah bringing the widow's son back from the dead has a deeper meaning when you understand a little of the religion of the Phoenicians (who were Canaanites, which in turn is just a geographic designation for the Amorites in Canaan). The patron deity of Sidon was Eshmun, the Phoenician name for the Greek demigod Asclepius. The Greeks believed Asclepius was the half-divine son of Apollo, a healer of such skill that he was able to cure death. (This led Hades to complain to Zeus that Asclepius was disrupting the natural order of things, so Zeus killed Asclepius.) The point is this: God, through Elijah, demonstrated that He, Yahweh, was the one God who truly has power over life and death. Likewise, Elijah's confrontation with the prophets of Baal has a deeper meaning. This was a literal battle between Yahweh and the Baal worshipped by Jezebel and her pagan father, Ethbaal, king of Tyre. Ethbaal was a priest of Astarte, the Canaanite version of Ishtar, the Babylonian goddess of sex and war (which explains a lot about Jezebel). The kicker is that the Baal of Tyre was probably Melqart, which was the Phoenician name for Herakles—better known to us as Hercules. This explains some of Elijah's taunts while Jezebel's prophets danced, shouted, and cut themselves to summon their small-G god. It also helps us understand why Elijah had twelve vessels of water poured over the sacrifice and the wood on the altar. It didn't just represent the twelve tribes of Israel and make the sacrifice more difficult to burn, it mocked a libation (drink offering) ritual called yarid that is documented in Jewish and Roman texts and inscriptions as late as the 3rd century AD, when Emperor Diocletian performed the yarid at Tyre for Hercules! This also connects to Mount Hermon, where scholars Edward Lipiński and Charles Clermont-Ganneau noted, based on the site drawing by Sir Charles Warren in 1869 (when he discovered the Watcher Stone in a temple near the peak of the mountain), that the summit of Hermon is scooped out like a giant bowl—probably to receive these offerings. Lipiński wrote that this means the Watchers, led by Shemihazah, did not descend in the days of Jared, but in the days when the yarid was performed on the mountain. So, Elijah's actions on Mount Carmel were directed not just at Baal or Melqart/Hercules, but at the “sons of God” who long ago tried to take dominion of Earth away from the children of Adam and Eve.

Wednesday, May 14 marked the 77th anniversary of Israel becoming a nation. This significant historical and biblical event was overshadowed this week when President Donald Trump traveled to the Middle East but did not visit Israel. During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd discusses the opportunity that Trump missed this week along with other alarming developments and how they are setting the stage for the fulfillment of another Bible prophecy concerning Israel.Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/ Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

There are several important mountains in the area that we today call the Holy Land. Mount Hermon is one of these mountains and has been considered sacred for all of recorded history. This is where the fallen Watchers made their descent, not only from the heavenly realm, but a descent into sin that would land them in chains in Tartarus. The River Jordan's headwaters launch from here, El lived here with his 70 sons and the Grotto of Pan stands at its base. This mountain is not discussed in mainline churches, but it should be, because the ultimate battle started here. Main theme: Crazy For Thrills by Muse Music with Groove Studios
Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for April 28, 2025 is: alacrity uh-LAK-ruh-tee noun Alacrity refers to a quick and cheerful readiness to do something. // She accepted the invitation to go on the trip with an alacrity that surprised her parents, who had assumed she wouldn't be interested. See the entry > Examples: “Antipater, about to mount his horse, saw Pollio and Sameas so close to him that the sleeve of Sameas almost touched his own in the crush. … Antipater had graciously invited the two to view his new grandson and sip a cup of wine cooled by snow brought from Mount Hermon. The two accepted with alacrity.” — Zora Neale Hurston, The Life of Herod the Great, 2025 Did you know? “I have not that alacrity of spirit / Nor cheer of mind that I was wont to have,” says William Shakespeare's King Richard III in the play that bears his name. Alas and alack, Richard! Alacrity comes from the Latin word alacer, meaning “lively” or “eager,” and suggests physical quickness coupled with eagerness or enthusiasm. Thus, a spirit that lacks alacrity—like Richard III's—is in the doldrums, in need of a little (to use a much less formal word than alacrity) get-up-and-go.
Tim Hughes of Jubilee Church Wirral reflects on spiritual experiences where God feels tangibly present, using a U2 concert moment as an opening illustration. He suggests that all humans long for experiences beyond the material, pointing to the existence of God, specifically the God of the Bible. For you, that might not be U2 playing Where the Streets Have No Name, but it’s likely to be something. Tim talks about how how God meets Moses and Elijah on Mount Sinai and Peter, James, and John on Mount Hermon, revealing his divine glory. All three stories highlight humanity's longing for God, the ways God chooses to reveal Himself, and the ultimate fulfilment of that longing in Jesus Christ. Tim encourages us to seek God's presence above all else, listen to Him, and trust His plans. The post Tim Hughes: When God walks in the room first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.
Can Iran be trusted to use nuclear technology solely for peaceful purposes? Is a nuclear deal truly possible with Iran? During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Pastor Rich Jones joins Dr. Matthew Dodd in studio to address these pressing questions. In addition, they discuss other matters that pertain to Israel and her security, such as the Holocaust Day of Remembrance, the Palestinians in Gaza calling for the removal of Hamas, Syria's President stating he is open to normalizing relations with Israel, and China conducting military drills with Egypt on Israel's southern border for the first time.Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/ Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

Join us for a compelling episode as we journey through the biblical landscapes of Caesarea Philippi and Mount Hermon, unveiling hidden meanings behind Jesus' provocative declaration. Explore the vivid imagery of spiritual confrontation and victory as Jesus stands at the gates of hell, prompting His disciples to recognize His divine identity. Witness the unfolding of God's grand narrative, from Peter's bold confession to the ultimate triumph of faith over darkness, as we prepare our hearts for the profound events of Holy Week.
In Acts 13, Paul and Barnabas embarked on their first missionary journey after the Holy Spirit revealed He had set them apart for such a work. They traveled to the island of Cyprus, the birthplace of Barnabas, and went from synagogue to synagogue proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ. When they arrived in Paphos, they encountered a magician, a Jewish false prophet whose name was Bar-Jesus. Bar-Jesus appears to have provided counsel to the Roman proconsul, Sergius Paulus. Sergius Paulus wanted to hear the Word of God from Paul and Barnabas but Bar-Jesus opposed them and sought to “turn the proconsul away from the faith.” In many ways, what is recorded next in Acts 13, encapsulates the rest of Paul's ministry.During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd visits Pafos, Cyprus and shares insights about the Apostle Paul's confrontation with Bar-Jesus and the impact it had on Sergius Paulus. He also provides updates concerning Iran's nuclear program and Israel's war against Hamas.Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/ Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

When we are feeling empty or spiritually depressed, or when circumstances make us aware of our weakness, that is a great opportunity to grow in God by turning to Him and asking Him to fill our void. We must be thirsty for God before we drink of His living water (Isa 55:1, John 7:37, Rev 21:6, 22:17). When our soul is full of worldly things we have no room for God, but “blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness (God's Word and Spirit) Presence, for they shall be filled (with God's Presence)” (Matt 5:6). In Psalm 42 the psalmist is depressed and thirsty for the living God (v1-2), so He turns to God to fill him. Inspired by the local scenery, where the river Jordan flows out from Mount Hermon at Banias and tumbles down in waterfalls, he focuses on God, seeing these waters as a picture of God's river of life (v6), and then cries out from the depth of his heart (need) to the depths of God to fill him: “Deep calls unto deep at the noise (sound) of Your waterfalls (of grace)” (v7a). Through His Word, we hear the sound of His river of life flowing to us, and respond by calling out to Him to fill us. As a result: “all Your waves and billows (of love, peace and joy) have gone over me. The Lord will command His lovingkindness in the daytime” (v7b-8). The Oil Miracle (2Kings 1-7), when God filled all the empty vessels that were presented to Him with His Oil (representing the Holy Spirit) reveals that He is willing to fill all the empty parts of our soul with His Spirit, if we turn to Him, present them to Him, and ask Him to fill us. The Oil only stopped flowing when there were no longer any empty vessels to fill. So our empty voids (our awareness of our weakness and need) are a great opportunity to turn to god and be filled.

Acts 17:10-12 reveals that when the Apostle Paul came to Berea, he discovered the Bereans were “more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica” because “they received the word with great eagerness” and were “examining the Scriptures daily to see whether” the things Paul was teaching were true. During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd shares highlights from his visit to Berea, now called Veria, Greece, along with insights from God's Word regarding the Bereans and how they processed Paul's teachings.

YOU'D THINK that being anointed king over the northern tribes because of Solomon's disobedience to God would have caused Jeroboam to be more careful about his theology. We follow up last week's study with the consequences of Jeroboam's decision to set up altars with golden calves. Contrary to some who teach that the golden calves were idols representing God, we believe the locations—Bethel (“House of El”) and Dan, at the foot of Mount Hermon—point to the Canaanite father-god El, whose main epithet was “Bull El.” Mount Hermon was El's “mount of assembly,” which is one of the reasons we argue that El was Shemihazah, leader of the sons of God who rebelled in Genesis 6:1–4. Because Jeroboam drew the northern tribes back into the worship of El, who was known as Dagon to the Philistines and Milcom (Molech) to the Ammonites, God sent a prophet to decree that a future king named Josiah would desecrate Jeroboam's altars by sacrificing the priests of the high places and burning human bones on them. Bear in mind that Jeroboam began his reign over the northern kingdom in 930 BC and Josiah would not become king of Judah until 640 BC, 290 years later! Question of the week: Is there a difference between the terms “Jesus Christ” and “Christ Jesus”?

Mount Hermon – the eyes of Israel – has been witness to thousands of generations telling their stories throughout the ages. This single, towering peak bears the weight of countless narratives — stories of history, culture, faith from ancient times until today. Hermon is not just a place to go skiing; it's a place where the sacred intersects with the strategic, where ancient traditions meet the present day, and where diverse communities—Jewish, Druze, Christian, and Muslim—leave their imprints on its slopes.

The news cycle is constantly changing now that President Donald Trump is in office, especially when it comes to Israel's war against Hamas. One moment there are talks about transforming the war-torn Gaza Strip into the “Riviera” of the Middle East. Then there are ultimatums leveled against Hamas if the hostages are not released which are followed by a return to negotiations involving a phased approach to releasing the hostages and ending the war. Is this form of U.S. diplomacy effective in the Middle East? During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd and Pastor Rich Jones tackle this question and also provide guidance for how to stand with Israel and her people at this volatile time.

For review:1. Ukraine Will Agree to a 30 Day Ceasefire with Russia - US to Restart Military Aid and Intel Sharing. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio: "We'll take this offer now to the Russians. And we hope that they'll say yes, that they'll say yes to peace. The President's objective here is, number one, above everything else, he wants the war to end, and I think today Ukraine has taken a concrete step in that regard. We hope the Russians will reciprocate." 2. Iranian President to President Trump: "Do Whatever the Hell You Want." Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Tuesday that his country would not negotiate with the United States over its nuclear program while being threatened.3. Israel and Lebanon agreed on Tuesday to open negotiations to delineate the border between the two countries, the Prime Minister's Office said. Jerusalem and Beirut negotiated a maritime boundary in 2022 — but the two countries have yet to adopt an official land border. 4. Israeli journalists tour IDF posts atop Mount Hermon, on Syrian side of border. The IDF has established nine military posts inside Syrian territory, including two atop Mount Hermon. Three IDF brigades, under the 210th Bashan Regional Division, are deployed to the area. 5. Latest US Budget News: The Republican-led House voted Tuesday to pass a six-month funding bill that would prevent a government shutdown at the end of the week. The measure now heads to the US Senate, where its fate is uncertain.
What if the Bible portrays the world as divided into spiritual territories ruled by supernatural beings? This episode explores how ancient Israel and surrounding cultures understood “holy ground” and cosmic geography. We'll uncover why locations like Mount Hermon, Caesarea Philippi, and Babylon held spiritual significance and how Jesus' ministry directly confronted the powers of darkness.undergodpodcast.com

On Tuesday, February 4, 2025, President Donald Trump stunned the world when he declared during a press conference with Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip and that Gaza has the potential to become “the Riviera of the Middle East.” How realistic is President Trump's vision for Gaza? During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Pastor Rich Jones and Dr. Matthew Dodd explore the viability of President Trump's “strong recommendation” to solve the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians.Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

Psalm 133A Song of Ascents, of David“The brief didactic psalm employs two beautiful similes to illustrate the beauty and value of unity” Miller, 415. The two similes are the oil and dew. “The pilgrims came from many different walks of life, regions, and tribes, as they gathered for one purpose: the worship of the Lord in Jerusalem” VanGemeren, 815. 133:1 Behold, how good- “It is interesting that he gives no explanation as to why unity is good. Perhaps he does not need to do so, because this should be self-evident to everyone” Willis, vol. 3, 95. The word good is used in Gen. 1:4, 10, 12, 18, 21, 31. It is not good that man live alone in Gen. 2:18. “The word good in Ps. 133:1 reminds the reciter of God's provision of the community and relatedness for humanity” NICOT, 938. and how pleasant it is- Psalm 16:6, 11; 135:3; 147:1 “Again, the poet gives no reason for this” Willis, 95. “Strife demands more energy, whereas peaceful unity means the corporate body can reach common goals with less stress. If individual cooperate, then their efforts are multiplied” Longman, 439. 133:2 It is like the precious oil upon the head- The word translated precious in vs. 2 is the same Hebrew word translated good in vs. 1. “The pouring of oil over the head seems to have been an act of hospitality, signaling joy and relatedness (see Pss. 23:5; 92:10; Luke 7:46) as well as an official act of consecrating kings and priests” McCann, 1214. Joy in Ecc. 9:7-8; Matt. 6:16-17.Coming down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard- Lev. 21:5 The verb coming down is used three times- vss. 2, 2, 3. This stresses the origin of the blessings from heaven- Broyles, 474. Unity “is like precious oil that runs down on the high priest's beard, giving off a sweet-smelling fragrance (see Exodus 29:7; 30:22-33)” Lev. 8:12 Willis, 95. “Its fragrance could not be contained (Exodus 29:21)” Kidner, 453. “The anointed priest, in premonarchical days in particular, stood as a symbol of unity” Milller, 415. “The breastplate with the names of all 12 tribes. The oil thus symbolized the unity of the nation in worship under their consecrated priest” B.K. 888.133:3 It is like the dew of Hermon- “The dew is understood to be an agency of fruitfulness” Alter, 463. Isaiah 26:19; Hosea 14:5 Mount Hermon is the only snow-capped mountain in Israel- Longman, 439. “Mount Hermon in the north at the headwaters of the Jordan is the highest elevation in Palestine. A spur of the Anti-Lebanon mountains. Mount Hermon reaches a height of over nine thousand feet. Heavy dew is to found on it slopes early in the summer mornings even during the dry season” Miller, 416. Coming down upon the mountains of Zion- Ps. 48:2; 68:15-16; 87:2 “Situated more than one hundred air miles from Jerusalem, its dew could not literally come down upon the mountains of Zion. The simile is another allusion to the unifying effect that Jerusalem has on the nation” Miller, 416. Because of the geographical distance Alter, 463, emends the text to parched mountains instead of mountains of Zion. Zion is stressed in the songs of ascents- Ps. 125:1; 126:1; 128:5; 129:5; 132:13; 133:3; 134:3.Psalm 133 and JesusJohn 17:20-23; Eph. 2:11-22Mark 14:3, 6 The anointing oil was poured down upon Jesus. Matthew 10:34-37; Luke 12:51-53 Jesus is greater even than family and unity. 133:3 Mt. Zion as the place of blessing- Heb. 12:22-24; 13:14-16; Gal. 4:26; Rev. 14:1

EP. #1154 THE GATES OF HELL: DARK PORTALS, DEMONIC CODES, AND AMERICA'S HIDDEN PROPHECY Richard Syrett welcomes back author and researcher Derek Gilbert to explore the spine-chilling revelations from his latest book, The Gates of Hell: Unlocking the Ganymede Code and the Demonic Portals of Mount Hermon and the United States Capitol. Derek uncovers startling evidence that Jesus Christ, from the very beginning of His ministry, waged a direct assault on an ancient and insidious entity—an enemy that predates Satan himself. Together, Richard and Derek dive into some of the most shocking revelations, including: The Underworld Connection: Why Jesus' baptism took place at a site long believed to be the literal entrance to hell. Mount Hermon's Secrets: The Transfiguration and its link to the fallen ones of old. A Dark Presence in America: How the art and architecture of the U.S. Capitol encode sinister prophecies about a new Golden Age under the rule of Apollyon—the destroyer. Spiritual Warfare Unfolding Today: Could Israel's war with Hamas be a battleground orchestrated by this ancient adversary? The Four Horsemen in Plain Sight: The shocking connection between the Palestinian flag and the apocalyptic riders of Revelation. GUEST: Derek P. Gilbert hosts Five in Ten, a daily analysis of the news for SkyWatchTV, and co-hosts the weekly programs The Bible's Greatest Mysteries and Unraveling Revelation with his wife, author and analyst Sharon K. Gilbert. He's the author of the groundbreaking books ‘Bad Moon Rising,' an analysis of the spiritual forces behind Islam, ‘The Great Inception,' ‘Last Clash of the Titans.' And 'The Second Coming of Saturn He's also the co-author with Sharon K. Gilbert of 'Giants, Gods & Dragons,' a new take on end times prophecy that names the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and ‘Veneration,' a deep study on the ancient cult of the Rephaim.

Welcome to Day 2550 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2550 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 42:5-11 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2550 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2550 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. In today's Wisdom Nugget, we'll explore the second half of Psalm 42, focusing on verses 5 through 11 from the New Living Translation. This passage offers a raw, honest look at spiritual struggle, emotional turmoil, and the psalmist's ongoing effort to trust in God amid deep sorrow. Psalm 42 is often described as a “psalm of lament,” where the psalmist expresses both despair and hope. It's a deeply relatable psalm because we've all faced moments when life felt overwhelming, and God seemed distant. Yet, as we'll see, even amid his anguish, the psalmist repeatedly turns back to God, reminding us of the importance of anchoring our hope in Him. Let's begin by reading the passage: Psalm 42:5-11 (NLT) 5 Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise Him again— my Savior and my God! 6 Now I am deeply discouraged, but I will remember You— even from distant Mount Hermon, the source of the Jordan, from the land of Mount Mizar. 7 I hear the tumult of the raging seas as Your waves and surging tides sweep over me. 8 But each day the Lord pours His unfailing love upon me, and through each night I sing His songs, praying to God who gives me life. 9 “O God my rock,” I cry, “Why have You forgotten me? Why must I wander around in grief, oppressed by my enemies?” 10 Their taunts break my bones. They scoff, “Where is this God of yours?” 11 Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise Him again— my Savior and my God! The Inner Conflict: Wrestling with Discouragement (Verses 5-6) In verses 5 and 6, the psalmist begins with a heartfelt question: “Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad?” He's engaging in a sort of self-reflection, trying to understand the source of his deep emotional pain. Yet, even as he acknowledges his discouragement, he doesn't remain stuck in that place. Instead, he declares, “I will put my hope in God! I will praise Him again—my Savior and my God!” This moment highlights a key theme in Psalm 42: the tension between despair and hope. The psalmist feels overwhelmed, yet he chooses to place his trust in God. He doesn't deny his feelings, but he also doesn't let them define his faith. The phrase “I will praise Him again” is significant—it shows that the psalmist believes his current situation won't last forever. He trusts that a time will come when he can once again worship God with joy. In verse 6, he continues: “Now I am deeply discouraged, but I will remember You—even from distant Mount Hermon, the source of the Jordan, from the land of Mount...

Gene Decode provides an update on exotic technologies and contemporary exopolitical affairs around the planet in response to a series of questions beginning with William Tompkin's claims that Nautilus class nuclear attack submarines were retrofitted to fly into space. Decode corroborated that converted nuclear submarines were prototype spacecraft used in the Navy's Solar Warden space program as their fission engines had sufficient power for installed antigravity devices. Next, he discussed the re-election of President Donald Trump and his commitment to the release of advanced technologies, which he was prevented from doing in his first administration. Several patents on exotic technologies and nuclear fusion energy were discussed. Decode also discusses the emergence of mystery drones around the planet and believes that these comprise both Deep State assets and extraterrestrial spacecraft revealing themselves all over the Earth. Finally, Decade responds to the takeover of Mount Hermon in Syria, and how this is related to Deep Underground Military Bases created by the Anunnaki all over the planet. Decode became interested in Deep Underground Military Bases (DUMBs) in the 1990s while completing his service in the US Navy as a senior NCO with 20+ years of experience on five classes of submarines that included four nuclear and one diesel-powered submarine.

Alleluia. Venite (Psalm 95:1-7)Our King and Savior now draws near: Come, let us adore him.Come, let us sing to the Lord; * let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving * and raise a loud shout to him with psalms.For the Lord is a great God, * and a great King above all gods.In his hand are the caverns of the earth, * and the heights of the hills are his also.The sea is his, for he made it, * and his hands have molded the dry land.Come, let us bow down, and bend the knee, * and kneel before the Lord our Maker.For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. *Oh, that today you would hearken to his voice!Our King and Savior now draws near: Come, let us adore him. The PsalterPsalm 24Domini est terraBCP p. 613The earth is the Lord's and all that is in it, *the world and all who dwell therein.2For it is he who founded it upon the seas *and made it firm upon the rivers of the deep.3“Who can ascend the hill of the Lord? *and who can stand in his holy place?”4“Those who have clean hands and a pure heart, *who have not pledged themselves to falsehood,nor sworn by what is a fraud.5They shall receive a blessing from the Lord *and a just reward from the God of their salvation.”6Such is the generation of those who seek him, *of those who seek your face, O God of Jacob.7Lift up your heads, O gates;lift them high, O everlasting doors; *and the King of glory shall come in.8“Who is this King of glory?” *“The Lord, strong and mighty,the Lord, mighty in battle.”9Lift up your heads, O gates;lift them high, O everlasting doors; *and the King of glory shall come in.10“Who is he, this King of glory?” *“The Lord of hosts,he is the King of glory.” Psalm 29Afferte DominoBCP p. 620Ascribe to the Lord, you gods, *ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.2Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his Name; *worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.3The voice of the Lord is upon the waters;the God of glory thunders; *the Lord is upon the mighty waters.4The voice of the Lord is a powerful voice; *the voice of the Lord is a voice of splendor.5The voice of the Lord breaks the cedar trees; *the Lord breaks the cedars of Lebanon;6He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, *and Mount Hermon like a young wild ox.7The voice of the Lord splits the flames of fire;the voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness; *the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.8The voice of the Lord makes the oak trees writhe *and strips the forests bare.9And in the temple of the Lord *all are crying, “Glory!”10The Lord sits enthroned above the flood; *the Lord sits enthroned as King for evermore.11The Lord shall give strength to his people; *the Lord shall give his people the blessing of peace. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: *as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen. LessonsIsa. 42:1-12A Reading from the Book of the Prophet Isaiah.Behold my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights; I have put my Spirit upon him; he will bring forth justice to the nations. He will not cry aloud or lift up his voice, or make it heard in the street; a bruised reed he will not break, and a faintly burning wick he will not quench; he will faithfully bring forth justice. He will not grow faint or be discouraged till he has established justice in the earth; and the coastlands wait for his law. Thus says God, the Lord, who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the earth and what comes from it, who gives breath to the people on it and spirit to those who walk in it: “I am the Lord; I have called you in righteousness; I will take you by the hand and keep you; I will give you as a covenant for the people, a light for the nations, to open the eyes that are blind, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon, from the prison those who sit in darkness. I am the Lord; that is my name; my glory I give to no other, nor my praise to carved idols. Behold, the former things have come to pass, and new things I now declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.” Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise from the end of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that fills it, the coastlands and their inhabitants. Let the desert and its cities lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar inhabits; let the habitants of Sela sing for joy, let them shout from the top of the mountains. Let them give glory to the Lord, and declare his praise in the coastlands. The Word of the Lord.Thanks Be To God. Te Deum laudamusYou are God: we praise you;You are the Lord: we acclaim you;You are the eternal Father:All creation worships you.To you all angels, all the powers of heaven, Cherubim and Seraphim, sing in endless praise:Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might,heaven and earth are full of your glory.The glorious company of apostles praise you.The noble fellowship of prophets praise you.The white-robed army of martyrs praise you. Throughout the world the holy Church acclaims you;Father, of majesty unbounded,your true and only Son, worthy of all worship, and the Holy Spirit, advocate and guide.You, Christ, are the king of glory, the eternal Son of the Father.When you became man to set us free you did not shun the Virgin's womb. You overcame the sting of deathand opened the kingdom of heaven to all believers. You are seated at God's right hand in glory.We believe that you will come and be our judge.Come then, Lord, and help your people, bought with the price of your own blood, and bring us with your saintsto glory everlasting. Eph. 6:10-20A Reading from the Letter to the Ephesians.Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak. John 3:16-21A Reading from the Gospel According to John.“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.” The Word of the Lord.Thanks Be To God. Benedictus Dominus DeusBlessed be the Lord, the God of Israel; * he has come to his people and set them free.He has raised up for us a mighty savior, * born of the house of his servant David.Through his holy prophets he promised of old, that he would save us from our enemies, * from the hands of all who hate us. He promised to show mercy to our fathers * and to remember his holy covenant. This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham, * to set us free from the hands of our enemies, Free to worship him without fear, * holy and righteous in his sight all the days of our life.You, my child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High, * for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way, To give his people knowledge of salvation * by the forgiveness of their sins.In the tender compassion of our God * the dawn from on high shall break upon us, To shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death, * and to guide our feet into the way of peace.Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. The Apostles CreedI believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. The PrayersThe Lord be with you.And also with you.Let us pray.Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

How is it possible to "take up a cross daily" and not grow depressed or exhausted by the process? Jesus has just exhorted His disciples that He must suffer and that they must suffer if they are to be His disciples, but the prospect of this kind of life can seem overwhelming unless God has provided much support along the way. Here on Mount Hermon we see the Father strengthen His Son in ways that ought not only amaze us because of their miraculous nature, but encourage us because we see principles here by which He strengthens us as well.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Rockets were fired by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad from Gaza at southern Israel Friday night. These aren’t the only rockets from the Strip in the past week or so. We hear what this uptick represents. On Wednesday, the IDF confirmed that it had withdrawn its troops from the town of Khiam in southern Lebanon in accordance with the ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah. What kind of presence remains in southern Lebanon? Exactly a week ago, the first IDF tanks and troops pushed into southern Syria, seizing control of the former Syrian army posts located within a buffer zone that has existed between the countries since 1974, after a rebel uprising took place there by a coalition of various Druze tribes and opposition groups going by the name of Southern Operations Room. We hear what little is known about their leadership and ideology and Fabian reports on what he saw at an IDF's forward defense post, just beyond the buffer zone. On Thursday, the IAF said that after over a decade of evading air defenses over the skies of Syria during a campaign against Iran’s supply of weapons to Hezbollah, it had achieved total air superiority in the area and therefore, there is an opportunity to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities. Fabian weighs in. For news updates, please check out The Times of Israel’s ongoing live blog.

It's been 14 months since Iranian-backed Hamas terrorists barbarically attacked Israel. Since that time, Hamas has been defeated, Hezbollah has been decapitated, and Syria has fallen. Truly, Iran's Axis of Resistance has been seriously diminished. On Friday, December 6, 2024, Pastor Rich Jones and Dr. Matthew Dodd gave a Prophecy Update in order to discuss the impact of October 7th and how that day has forever changed the landscape for Israel domestically and internationally. In addition, they shared how October 7th has set the stage for the fulfillment of Bible prophecy concerning Israel in the latter days.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic reporter Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's Daily Briefing podcast. Israeli Air Force fighter jets on Sunday struck dozens of targets across Syria, taking out weaponry that Israel feared could fall into the hands of hostile forces in light of the dramatic fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime some two weeks into a lightning offensive by rebel groups. Also on Sunday, the Israel Defense Forces seized control of a buffer zone between the Israel-Syria border in the Golan Heights, in what it described as a temporary defensive measure. We discuss why we have a buffer zone with Syria, when it was established and the legal standing of the Golan Heights. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday claimed credit for starting the chain of events that led to the sudden fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime in Syria, hailing it as an “historic day.” According to Berman, "Seeing that Hezbollah and Iran were exhausted and that Russia was stretched to the limit in Ukraine, Syrian rebels poured out of their statelet in the northwest, driving south until they took the capital." He explains some of the scenarios of what may happen next. On Sunday night, Netanyahu told the family members of hostages held in Gaza that the regime change in Syria could help advance a deal, while US President-elect Donald Trump said he did not believe there were many captives left alive. This morning, it was reported that mediated negotiations between Israel and Palestinian terror group Hamas to reach a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip have advanced to the point where the sides are discussing lists of those who would be released. Berman updates. For news updates, please check out The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog.

Herman...Why This Is SIGNIFIGANT | Todd Coconato Show Website: www.PastorTodd.org To give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give Today's Topic on The Todd Coconato Show: Why Israel Taking Mount Hermon is Prophetically Significant Mount Hermon is no ordinary mountain—it's a place rich with biblical, historical, and spiritual significance. From its connection to Genesis 6 and the rebellion of the fallen angels, to its role as a strategic stronghold, Mount Hermon represents both spiritual warfare and divine authority. Israel's recent action to secure this critical site is not just geopolitically significant—it holds deep prophetic implications in the context of Scripture and the unfolding events in the Middle East. What does this mean for Israel's future, the region, and God's plans in these prophetic times? Join us on The Todd Coconato Show as we dive deep into why Mount Hermon matters and what this recent development means for believers worldwide. Don't miss this timely and powerful discussion!

Verses mentioning Mount Hermon and the land of Bashan are sprinkled throughout the Bible. To Israelites during the Biblical Period, they were obvious references to the land of the dead.Bible scholar Dr. Michael Heiser, who sadly passed away February 20, 2023 at the age of 60, joined us for an interview in 2021 and explained why Bashan and Hermon were important, and why Jesus deliberately traveled there for some very specific events during his ministry—like picking a fight with the Enemy.

Year 2 - 1979 Daily Office LectionaryOpening Words:“Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.”Psalm 19:14 (ESV) Confession:Let us humbly confess our sins unto Almighty God. Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen. Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through our Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen you in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep you in eternal life. Amen. The InvitatoryLord, open our lips.And our mouth shall proclaim your praise.Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen. Venite (Psalm 95:1-7)Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: Come let us adore him. Come, let us sing to the Lord; * let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving * and raise a loud shout to him with psalms.For the Lord is a great God, * and a great King above all gods.In his hand are the caverns of the earth, * and the heights of the hills are his also.The sea is his, for he made it, * and his hands have molded the dry land.Come, let us bow down, and bend the knee, * and kneel before the Lord our Maker.For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. *Oh, that today you would hearken to his voice! Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: Come let us adore him. The PsalterPsalm 24Domini est terraBCP p. 613 The earth is the Lord's and all that is in it, *the world and all who dwell therein. For it is he who founded it upon the seas *and made it firm upon the rivers of the deep. “Who can ascend the hill of the Lord? *and who can stand in his holy place?” “Those who have clean hands and a pure heart, *who have not pledged themselves to falsehood,nor sworn by what is a fraud. They shall receive a blessing from the Lord *and a just reward from the God of their salvation.” Such is the generation of those who seek him, *of those who seek your face, O God of Jacob. Lift up your heads, O gates;lift them high, O everlasting doors; *and the King of glory shall come in. “Who is this King of glory?” *“The Lord, strong and mighty,the Lord, mighty in battle.” Lift up your heads, O gates;lift them high, O everlasting doors; *and the King of glory shall come in. “Who is he, this King of glory?” *“The Lord of hosts,he is the King of glory.” Psalm 29Afferte DominoBCP p. 620 Ascribe to the Lord, you gods, *ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his Name; *worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. The voice of the Lord is upon the waters;the God of glory thunders; *the Lord is upon the mighty waters. The voice of the Lord is a powerful voice; *the voice of the Lord is a voice of splendor. The voice of the Lord breaks the cedar trees; *the Lord breaks the cedars of Lebanon; He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, *and Mount Hermon like a young wild ox. The voice of the Lord splits the flames of fire;the voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness; *the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh. The voice of the Lord makes the oak trees writhe *and strips the forests bare. And in the temple of the Lord *all are crying, “Glory!” The Lord sits enthroned above the flood; *the Lord sits enthroned as King for evermore. The Lord shall give strength to his people; *the Lord shall give his people the blessing of peace. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: *as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen. Lessons1 Cor. 12:27-13:13Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it. And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers; then deeds of power, then gifts of healing, forms of assistance, forms of leadership, various kinds of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? Do all possess gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret? But strive for the greater gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way. If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end. For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part; but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became an adult, I put an end to childish ways. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.The Word of the Lord.Thanks Be To God. Te Deum laudamusYou are God: we praise you;You are the Lord: we acclaim you;You are the eternal Father:All creation worships you.To you all angels, all the powers of heaven, Cherubim and Seraphim, sing in endless praise:Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might,heaven and earth are full of your glory.The glorious company of apostles praise you.The noble fellowship of prophets praise you.The white-robed army of martyrs praise you. Throughout the world the holy Church acclaims you;Father, of majesty unbounded,your true and only Son, worthy of all worship, and the Holy Spirit, advocate and guide.You, Christ, are the king of glory, the eternal Son of the Father.When you became man to set us free you did not shun the Virgin's womb. You overcame the sting of deathand opened the kingdom of heaven to all believers. You are seated at God's right hand in glory.We believe that you will come and be our judge.Come then, Lord, and help your people, bought with the price of your own blood, and bring us with your saintsto glory everlasting. Matt. 18:21-35Then Peter came and said to him, "Lord, if another member of the church sins against me, how often should I forgive? As many as seven times?" Jesus said to him, "Not seven times, but, I tell you, seventy-seven times. "For this reason the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his slaves. When he began the reckoning, one who owed him ten thousand talents was brought to him; and, as he could not pay, his lord ordered him to be sold, together with his wife and children and all his possessions, and payment to be made. So the slave fell on his knees before him, saying, 'Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.' And out of pity for him, the lord of that slave released him and forgave him the debt. But that same slave, as he went out, came upon one of his fellow slaves who owed him a hundred denarii; and seizing him by the throat, he said, 'Pay what you owe.' Then his fellow slave fell down and pleaded with him, 'Have patience with me, and I will pay you.' But he refused; then he went and threw him into prison until he would pay the debt. When his fellow slaves saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their lord all that had taken place. Then his lord summoned him and said to him, 'You wicked slave! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. Should you not have had mercy on your fellow slave, as I had mercy on you?' And in anger his lord handed him over to be tortured until he would pay his entire debt. So my heavenly Father will also do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”The Word of the Lord.Thanks Be To God. Benedictus Dominus DeusBlessed be the Lord, the God of Israel; * he has come to his people and set them free.He has raised up for us a mighty savior, * born of the house of his servant David.Through his holy prophets he promised of old, that he would save us from our enemies, * from the hands of all who hate us. He promised to show mercy to our fathers * and to remember his holy covenant. This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham, * to set us free from the hands of our enemies, Free to worship him without fear, * holy and righteous in his sight all the days of our life.You, my child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High, * for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way, To give his people knowledge of salvation * by the forgiveness of their sins.In the tender compassion of our God * the dawn from on high shall break upon us, To shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death, * and to guide our feet into the way of peace.Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. The Apostles CreedI believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. The PrayersThe Lord be with you.And also with you.Let us pray.Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Welcome to Day 2483 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 29:1-11 Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2483 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2483 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.. In today's Wisdom Nugget, we are focusing on Psalm 29, a powerful and majestic psalm of David that directs our attention to the overwhelming glory of God displayed through His voice in creation. Psalm 29 offers us a vivid picture of God's sovereignty over nature and His ability to command the forces of the earth with His voice. Through the sounds of thunder, the strength of storms, and the power of water, we see the unmatched might of God. Yet, in the end, this psalm also reveals that God, in His great power, blesses His people with strength and peace. So, let's read through Psalm 29:1-11 from the New Living Translation: Psalm 29:1-11 (NLT): 1 Honor the Lord, you heavenly beings; honor the Lord for His glory and strength. 2 Honor the Lord for the glory of His name. Worship the Lord in the splendor of His holiness. 3 The voice of the Lord echoes above the sea. The God of glory thunders. The Lord thunders over the mighty sea. 4 The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is majestic. 5 The voice of the Lord splits the mighty cedars; the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon. 6 He makes Lebanon's mountains skip like a calf; He makes Mount Hermon leap like a young wild ox. 7 The voice of the Lord strikes with bolts of lightning. 8 The voice of the Lord makes the barren wilderness quake; the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh. 9 The voice of the Lord twists mighty oaks and strips the forests bare. In His Temple everyone shouts, “Glory!” 10 The Lord rules over the floodwaters. The Lord reigns as king forever. 11 The Lord gives His people strength. The Lord blesses them with peace. Calling the Heavens to Worship (Verses 1-2): Psalm 29 begins with a call to honor and worship the Lord. In verses 1 and 2, David says: “Honor the Lord, you heavenly beings; honor the Lord for His glory and strength. Honor the Lord for the glory of His name. Worship the Lord in the splendor of His holiness.” Here, David is calling on the heavenly beings, the angels, and all those in the spiritual realm, to give honor and praise to God. He is asking them to recognize the magnificence of God's glory and strength. This call to worship is an invitation for all of creation—both heavenly and earthly—to recognize and praise the name of the Lord for who He is. David emphasizes worshiping the Lord in “the splendor of His holiness.” God is holy, set apart, and His very being is majestic. His glory shines brighter than anything in creation, and it's only fitting that all creatures, especially those in the heavenly realm, would bow in worship before Him. For us today, this call extends beyond the...
