Thanks Im 71 and my child 52 and I've tried to explain to her it means spiritual not monetary but she keeps saying that parents should lay up treasures for their children She is a Christian by seems she just can't accept this concept I agree it's talking about Spiritual Thanks for your comment

While Peter spoke well, you might consider the more important issue of whether you both are headed to heaven. Otherwise, it was and would still be an unequal union, if one of you are saved and the other isn't.

Any intermediate relationships, between the break and reunion, would be considered adulterous. Knowing where you stand with God is far more important than where you stand with each other. Remember, God loves you and has a resolution to all problems you face. Marriage is a three way relationship, with God being the all important binding. Love is not based on feeling, but commitment. God so loved that he gave, unconditional commitment on the part of God to graciously save people, as revealed in his word. He deserves our love, whereas, we having been sinners never deserve his.

What and where is perdition ?

Make your request known to God and ask for help in resolving it. Talk to Him as if you were sitting together. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you pray. Then turn off all the media and just sit in His presence and listen.

If there's any unforgiveness anywhere; time to confess it and let God forgive you. Sometimes unresolved unforgiveness hinders our prayers.

Deuteronomy 20:3

And shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye approach this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts faint, fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because of them;

Deuteronomy 31:6

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

Deuteronomy 31:8

And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.

*** Keep your heart and mind on Jesus to lend skill to the doctors hands, to cure you completely. Note these scriptures in the back of your Bible. January is months away.

My favorite Psalm it was given to me in a church service, first time I ever stood up in front of anybody in church. A few months later my older sister would be murdered and this Psalm helped to reassure me God's love and grace in my life

2 Corinthians 1:3-4

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God."

The Good News: God comforts us in our darkest times, so we are able to have strength to give others help and strength during their worst times. We look to God as example on how to provide comfort and love during times of sorrow.

Matthew 5:4

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted."

The Good News: God will never abandon us during our times of grief - he will always provide us with love and hope.

Revelation 21:4

"He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away."

The Good News: In heaven, we will feel no pain, no sorrow, and there will be no death. All of our grief will fall away and we will only feel God's unending love.

May the peace of God keep your hearts and mind, at this time. Be lifted in the spirit of your mind. Be comforted that memories do not fade. Look forward to that future day when we will see our loved ones again.

Give love to each other freely and take love without reserve. Bless you dear children.

Mishael

Yes i would like one.

Dear Lord,

I humble myself before you and confess my sin. I want to thank you for hearing my prayer and helping me return to you. Lately, I've been wanting things to go my own way. As you know, this hasn't been working out. I see where I've been going the wrong way-my own way. I've been placing my faith and trust in everyone and everything but you.

Dear Father, I return now to you, the Bible, and your Word. I pray for guidance as I listen for your voice. Let me return to what is most important-you. Help my attitude to change so that instead of focusing on others and events to meet my needs, I can turn to you and find the love, purpose, and direction I seek. Help me to seek you first. Let my relationship with you be the most important thing in my life.

Thank you, Jesus, for helping me, loving me, and showing me the way. Thank you for new mercies, for forgiving me. I rededicate myself to you wholly. I surrender my will to your will. I give you back control of my life.

You are the only one who gives freely, with love to anyone who asks.

I ask for the Holy Spirit to come alongside me and teach the Bible to me. I will not allow satan to distract me.

In the Name of Jesus, I pray.

Amen.

1 John 1:9, as needed. God bless you and hide you under His wings.

Come join us in the Questions Room. Ask anything that needs an answer. Someone will respond. Mishael

Blessings to you for caring. He's a tough guy but he has greatly come around to God. Pray for him and 2 sons too, please. They were separated by divorce for many years; but now building bridges between them.

Matthew 6:20

But LAY UP for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

2 Corinthians 12:14

Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to LAY UP for the parents, but the parents for the children.

Comment:

I think this is clearly showing us that material possessions and financial is not really going to bless your kids.

It's the spiritual blessings we impart to them, from early childhood to adulthood that make for an eternal impartation.

I read short Psalms or Proverbs to my 7yr old grandson now; and I did it when he was much younger too. He received Jesus as his Savior over a year ago. I will never stop praying for him or his parents. That's the gold and silver that you leave for your kids.

Once they connect to peers and the world, they need our prayers more than ever. All through The Moses and Joshua years, it's commanded that they teach the history and the blessings To the children. Parents :) teaching their kids. They are your treasure.

You can go back to this website entrance, to the SEARCH Box that is on top. Type in LUCIFER and hit the arrow. Copy those scriptures on paper. (See if Ezekiel 28 is in the list?)

Open up your Bible and look up those verses. IF your Bible pages have CENTER of the page, REFERENCE columns;

See the alphabet letters in the verses and enter those scriptures in your list from the Reference Column.

Now you can read along the event, pulling in the other references and it gives you a complete picture of what is what.

I did it. I remember that there were 3 archangels: Lucifer, Michael, Gabriel. Other religions have more in their doctrines; not Gods.

Lucifer was 4th in line but sin was found in him and he was ejected with his followers to earth. (1/3 of angels turned evil)

Only Michael and Gabriel remain. I don't want to hear about other archangels from googling.

"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9

Pray this prayer with sincerity of heart

"Dear God, I believe in you and that your Son, Jesus Christ, is Lord. I believe in His sacrifice for my sins and His resurrection from the dead. I repent and ask forgiveness for my sins and I'm deciding now to follow you. Please, come into my life through the gift of your Holy Spirit. It is in the Lord Jesus' name that I ask and receive, Amen."

The Bible says doing these things with sincerity means you are a Christian (Christ follower) and will have eternal life in heaven.

"These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God." 1 John 5:13

(Use caution in trusting your feelings, as feelings change. Stand on God's promises- they never change.)

You are anti-Semitic.

Do not call Jesus Christ anti-Semitic !

John 3

It just works better this way. God means for the couple to draw close, unite in purpose and become ONE. It's about core; inner circle:

Men may have to eat a few deadly meatloafs, but there will be peace in the home. :D. (AllrecipesDotCom)

Mark 10:7

For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;

Genesis 2:24

Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

Matthew 19:5

And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

Joshua 23:8

But cleave unto the LORD your God, as ye have done unto this day.

Deuteronomy 4:4

But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God, are alive every one of you this day.

(I used to think cleaving was horseshoes but with meat cleavers )

He is in our prayers now.

I will admit that men do better at Pastoring as a whole. Women are good intercessors and do very well teaching on prayer, equipping all people who feel that call.

We have to know that our prayers are shaking Heaven and sending demons to the dry, hot places.

We need to pray to the Lord of the Harvest; to send laborers out into the Harvest.

Goals and beliefs give people lasting motivation

What does it mean in N.T. when it says a parent should lay up for their children. Does it mean that parents should make sure children are left money?

I sent that to a truck driver friend of mine.

(Ex Fire ems paramedic). He had a mini-stroke last week. Called me in Texas from Ohio, from the side of a road. I had to call police and Ems and a few others. He had driven home! Couldn't talk. Got mad cause ems found him & took him to the hospital. He's ok.

I hope he will be more serious about diet.

And about Being born again, from your letter.

:) Truck driver was maybe two years a born again Christian at the time of the vision.

No. I believe your vision is real. I've had them. So wonderful when they happen.

I had one as a new Christian that took me by surprise and caused fear. I found out that satan can use the Bible against us.

I heard an audible voice in the room. I did not feel the witness in my spirit; that it was from God.

It could've derailed me right there.

You will feel no fear from a vision of God. It will edify you and bless you. The memory will carry you over rough patches in life.

I had one where I was standing in clouds. I took a big breath. The air was so crisp and clean. I filled my lungs, over and over. I said " what is that!?" In my spirit I heard: the air in Heaven is faith....

I'm not going to debate this. It's like trying to explain that God has an end time plan for Israel. Too hot.

If God needed pastors, teachers, evangelists, prophets; would He find anyone available to fill in? Faith?

It calls for people who are flexible; who have studied to show themselves approved; someone who can explain the same things on the 'become a Christian' link on this website.

We've had decades of being shut in with computers, Facebook, twitter; talking to a screen, without actual contact with a live person face-to-face. It was much easier in Jesus's time.

There are many people who come to the prayer request room that need some contact; someone to agree with them, as touching on their needs. It takes a FOLLOW JESUS kind of attitude. I don't see it happening. Check the Thread Links.

I know The book of Joel is prophetic, and God is going to find willing servants. He'll pour out the Holy Spirit upon them. I'm kind of like a watchman: I watch, I pray, intercede, stand in gaps, carry baby lambs, ask questions at times. Beat up on demons often. Sing and praise exceedingly; Whatever God wants, is what I do. See, He reached down in a pit of muck and pulled me out of it; demons scattered. Filled me full of the Holy Spirit. I gotta believe there is many, many more like me out there.

I love my life now! Nothing I ever did with the devil, was as wonderful as sitting at the feet of Jesus. He is Worthy to receive Praise and Worship and Honor.

Can anybody have that? Yes. You'll have to die to carnality and self. Give your life away to Jesus; and take His Life into your being.

Do what He Does. Follow His Leadership.

I'll write a short testimony later. What caused me to do what I do. My phone is flatlining now.

Mishael

Mishael - I'm curious why you say be careful with visions. They have a purpose: revelation, comfort, answer to a prayer. I do know satan is a liar and can trick but are you saying he can answer my prayers and comfort me.

Women are to take a less authoritative role. Women are encouraged to teach other women ( Titus 2:3-5). The Bible also does not restrict women from teaching children. The only activity women are restricted from is teaching or having spiritual authority over men. This precludes women from serving as pastors to men.

To be read out loud daily against the workers of evil in the earth. All secret societys, like skull and Bones. All corrupt politicians that are satanist , cannibals, bohemian grove members, those that took oaths to be a political leader , but turned out to be a traitor, a communist, instead. A destroyer of the earth, a globalist,a enemy of God. If you don't, you'll have the same result as Portland, Seattle, California, Chicago, for your future. When Jesus said turn the other cheek he wasn't talking about this. Jesus also said give Satan no place , be able to put on the full armor of God, don't kiss the devil.

To Michael was Given mercy and glad tidings to Gabriel, and a heavenly gift to the virgin mary

I enjoy reading and understanding GOD'S word. I do have a question relating to heavens mercy seat.

Prior to the rebellion and downfall of Lucifer, scripture teaches us that Lucifer held a high ranking position in GOD'S heavenly government as the cherubim who covereth the mercy seat.

My question is this: Why did the mercy seat and/or GOD'S throne need covering? What or who did it need protection from since it was in heaven? Thank you in advance for your response. Have a blessed day...

Prophets aren't pastors, though. Nowhere in the Bible were women called to be disciples or elders.
