“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." Matthew 5:4
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. [NIV]
I've been thinking a lot about friendships in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination. Especially because, as we've talked about before on the program, many friendships have become strained in these highly charged times. So when you admire a prominent figure who takes a stand politically, you can be certain friends who vote in the other direction will not only NOT admire him, they may actually despise him. And, should he be murdered, they'll shed no tears. They might, in fact, be secretly glad he's dead. Where does that leave the friendship?We typically lean on friends during our pain and sadness. We look to them for empathy—even if they aren't suffering the same loss.True friends imagine how we're feeling; they put themselves in our shoes and grieve with us. As Paul instructed, they “carry our burdens.”But maybe they can't—or, won't—when the loss involves someone or something they abhor. Then what? What happens to the friendship?I'm dealing with this right now and in today's episode, Elliott helps me process. If your friendships are fractured due to these divisive times—or, for any reason—please join us.

Preacher: David Chong Title: Blessed are Those Who Mourn Sermon Series: Life Reimagined Scripture: Matthew 5:1-4 (NIV)
On today's podcast: 1) On Sunday evening, Erika Kirk, the widow of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, spoke at memorial service for her late husband, attended by the president and many prominent conservatives. She said she forgave the man who gunned down her husband, saying “I forgive him because it was what Christ did and it’s what Charlie would do.” President Trump proclaimed Charlie Kirk a “martyr for American freedom” in a memorial ceremony. 2) President Trump signed a proclamation to overhaul the H-1B visa program, requiring a $100,000 fee for applications to curb overuse. The proclamation restricts entry under the H-1B program unless accompanied by the payment, and asserts that abuse of the H-1B pathway has displaced US workers. 3) President Trump suggested that Lachlan Murdoch and his father Rupert Murdoch are involved in the US takeover of TikTok. Under the deal, Americans would hold six of the seven board seats for TikTok, the app’s algorithm would be controlled in the US and Oracle would act as TikTok’s security provider.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mercy For Those Who Mourn Over Sin - The Book of Ezekiel - Chapters 8-9 - 2025 Study by Shawn Ozbun
Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com Absolutely — let's build a complete definition of jealousy by pulling together the different angles from Scripture, psychology, and language: Definition of Jealousy 1. General / Dictionary Sense Jealousy is a feeling of resentment, bitterness, or insecurity that arises when we perceive a threat to something we value—such as a relationship, possession, status, or recognition. It often involves fear of loss and resentment toward others who have what we desire. 2. Biblical Sense The Bible uses jealousy in two distinct ways: Sinful Human Jealousy (envy, rivalry): * Wanting what someone else has. * Resenting their success, blessings, or relationships. * Leads to anger, strife, and destructive actions (James 3:16; Galatians 5:20). Righteous Divine Jealousy (protective love):** God's passionate commitment to His people and His own glory. Not born out of insecurity, but out of covenant love and holiness (Exodus 34:14; 2 Corinthians 11:2). Like a husband's rightful desire for his wife's faithfulness. 3. Psychological Understanding - or breaking it down in the brain Jealousy is often a complex emotion made up of: Fear (of being replaced, overlooked, or abandoned). Anger/resentment (toward the one we feel threatened by). Insecurity (about our own worth or position). Unlike envy (wanting what someone else has), jealousy often involves a triangular relationship: Me, the other person, and the rival/threat or appearance of what I lack. 4. Key Distinctions Envy = “I want what you have.” Jealousy = “I'm afraid you'll take what I have” or “I resent you for threatening my place (i.e. I don't measure up to you).” God's Jealousy = “I will not allow you to give your love to idols because I love you and know what's best for you.” Romans 12:15 Rejoice with those who rejoice and mourn with those who mourn. Jealousy keeps us from doing both. Rejoice? But I don't have that! Mourn? No they deserve to suffer, because I have had to suffer. But here is what is weird… when we rejoice over those who are succeeding, being blessed, hitting goals, achieving greatness… when we rejoice with them in that we are planting seeds of their success into our lives. If we truly reap what we sow… then when we rejoice with others we in turn have just planted seeds-IN FAITH- for the day people will rejoice over our success. So here is the power thought for the day. We don't just sow money, time talents… we sow emotions. If the emotions we choose to sow are positive we will reap the benefits of that… but if they are negative towards people… well, I bet you can figure it out. --- ✅ **Complete Definition (Combined):** **Jealousy** is an intense emotional response that can be either sinful or righteous. In its sinful form, it is a self-centered resentment or hostility toward others because of their advantages, relationships, or blessings, often leading to strife and destruction. In its righteous form—used of God—it is His holy, protective zeal for the exclusive devotion of His people and the honor of His name, rooted not in insecurity but in perfect love and covenant faithfulness. That's a really thoughtful question. The Bible treats **jealousy** as dangerous and destructive, but the reason why depends on how the word is used in Scripture. Let's break it down: --- 1. Jealousy as a Sin (Human Jealousy)** Most often, the Bible speaks of jealousy in the sense of **envy, rivalry, or coveting what others have**. This is why it's seen as evil: It leads to division and strife.** *“For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.”* (James 3:16) Jealousy doesn't just stay internal—it spills out into conflict and chaos. It comes from pride and insecurity.** Jealousy says, “What God gave me is not enough; I deserve what you have.” That challenges God's wisdom and provision. It destroys relationships.** Cain killed Abel out of jealousy (Genesis 4:3–8). Saul tried to kill David because “Saul was very angry … ‘They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed thousands'” (1 Samuel 18:7–9). It is linked with the “works of the flesh.”** Galatians 5:20–21 lists jealousy along with fits of anger, rivalries, and envy as things that keep people from inheriting the kingdom of God. 2. God's “Jealousy” (a Different Kind)** At the same time, Scripture also describes God as *jealous* (Exodus 34:14; Deuteronomy 4:24). But this isn't the same as sinful human jealousy. * God's jealousy is about **protective love**. He won't share His people with idols because He knows only He can satisfy them. * It's like a loving husband's jealousy for his wife's faithfulness—not rooted in insecurity, but in covenant love. 3. **Why Human Jealousy Is So Evil** So the Bible condemns human jealousy because: * It **springs from self-centeredness** rather than love. * It **questions God's goodness** and fairness. * It **tears communities apart** instead of building them up. * It is the **opposite of love**, which “does not envy” (1 Corinthians 13:4). In short: **God's jealousy protects love, but our jealousy destroys it.** Perfect — here are some of the clearest **biblical stories where jealousy led to disaster**: --- ### **1. Cain and Abel (Genesis 4:3–8)** * **What happened:** God accepted Abel's offering but not Cain's. Cain became jealous and murdered his brother. * **Lesson:** Jealousy escalated into anger, bitterness, and ultimately the first murder in human history. --- ### **2. Joseph and His Brothers (Genesis 37:3–28)** * **What happened:** Jacob favored Joseph, giving him the “coat of many colors.” His brothers became jealous of his dreams and sold him into slavery. * **Lesson:** Jealousy within a family destroyed trust and nearly killed Joseph. --- ### **3. Korah's Rebellion (Numbers 16:1–35)** * **What happened:** Korah and his followers were jealous of Moses and Aaron's leadership. They challenged God's choice and were swallowed up by the earth. * **Lesson:** Jealousy against God's appointed leaders is ultimately rebellion against God Himself. --- ### **4. Saul and David (1 Samuel 18:6–16; 19:8–10)** * **What happened:** After David killed Goliath, people praised him more than King Saul. Saul grew jealous and tried multiple times to kill David. * **Lesson:** Jealousy blinded Saul to David's loyalty and destroyed his kingship. --- ### **5. The Religious Leaders and Jesus (Mark 15:10; Matthew 27:18)** * **What happened:** Pilate recognized that the religious leaders handed Jesus over to be crucified **out of envy/jealousy.** * **Lesson:** Jealousy of Jesus' influence and authority led to the ultimate injustice—His crucifixion. --- ### **6. The Pharisees and the Apostles (Acts 5:17; 13:45)** * **What happened:** The high priest and Sadducees were jealous of the apostles' popularity and miracles, so they persecuted them. Later, the Jews in Antioch opposed Paul out of jealousy when Gentiles responded to the gospel. * **Lesson:** Jealousy can oppose the very work of God. ---

Hungry Palestinians have queued at a soup kitchen in Khan Younis, empty pots in hand, as famine tightens its grip on Gaza. Families say aid is failing to reach them, while shortages and soaring prices have left markets bare. The United Nations says nearly half a million people in Gaza face catastrophic hunger, nearly a quarter of the territory's population.
Alan teaches on the Beatitudes from Yeshua's Sermon on the Mount, in Matthew 5:3-10.Blessed are the poor in spirit,for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.Blessed are those who mourn,for they will be comforted.Blessed are the meek,for they will inherit the Earth.Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,for they will be satisfied.Blessed are the merciful,for they will be shown mercy.Blessed are the pure in heart,for they will see God.Blessed are the peacemakers,for they will be called the Sons of God.Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/NRyGS0lm9vwSend us a text

Have you ever prayed and wondered if God was really listening? In this devotional, Lynette Kittle walks us through the struggle of feeling unheard by God and explores two powerful steps we can take when prayers seem to go unanswered: self-examination and persistent seeking through fasting and prayer. Drawing from Daniel’s experience, we discover how spiritual battles can delay answers but also how God hears us the moment we call. ✨ Highlights Why unconfessed sin can create a sense of distance between us and God (2 Corinthians 13:5, 1 John 1:9) How Daniel’s story reveals that prayer delays don’t mean God is silent or absent Practical steps to restore closeness with God through confession, fasting, and seeking His presence The reality of spiritual warfare and why persistence in prayer matters (Ephesians 6:12) Encouragement to trust that God hears you—even when answers feel delayed
