  www.sewingdivine.com   Most of us pride ourselves on being educated,   well-informed, and confident in this life. But   let me ask,  “What do we really know?”    We research and study many subjects: the   human body, animals, birds, marine life,     insects, the ground beneath our feet, and the   vast sky above. But sadly, the knowledge we   gain is limited by our finite minds.       Thinking we know how our bodies work and what it takes to heal them, we forge ahead with educated guesses. Yet, many times the answer is beyond our capacity to know, and doctors are forced to say, “There’s nothing more we can do.” Researchers and virologists study diseases and viruses, and just when they think they have a cure for one, another pops up out of nowhere, and it’s back to the drawing board.   Over the years, we ingenious humans have gained incredible knowledge. In fact, I h...

HE IS RISEN! HE IS RISEN, INDEED!! “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of Hosts, the whole earth is full of His glory!” [1] Oh Lord, my God, give us the eyes to see Earth full of Your glory. For, the heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament shows Your handiwork. [2] Father, so many in this world do not understand this, nor do they care that you created it all.

Jesus is the image of the invisible God…BY Him, THROUGH Him, and FOR Him, all things were created in heaven and on earth—the seen and the unseen things. AND in Him, all things hold together. [4] Right now, O LORD, because of SIN, we are fighting an unseen thing that seeks to destroy. Abba, Father, w...

“Then it came to pass on the third day, in the morning, that there were thunderings and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain; and the sound of the trumpet was very loud, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled.” (Exodus 19:16) Moses constructed boundaries, consecrated Mount Sinai, and sanctified the people, meaning he called for repentance of sin and humility of heart. Their inner man needed to be as clean as their outer. He instructed them to bathe, don clean apparel, and abstain from intimate relations with their spouse, all in preparation for this third day. Soon Israel would hear the voice of God.

Exodus 19:1-15: As Moses descended Mt. Sinai with the message from the Lord, below the sea of Israelite tents grew larger with each step. The Creator of the Universe had chosen this place and Israel from among all the people of the earth. Will Israel  ever comprehend the magnitude of this moment? If he reminds them of how the Lord God Almighty sustained them in the wilderness, almost as if He bore them here to Himself on eagles’ wings, then will they understand? Surely, by now all Israel recognizes His hand. But, will they accept God’s terms? Will they humble themselves and truly become His special people, a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation?
