What challenge did the nation of Israel encounter in Joshua 1:1? If you were Joshua how would you have felt? Why do you think God told him, “be strong and of good courage”? How does our definition of success influence or affect our lives? How would you define success? How does the world view success? How did the Lord use the word “success” in Joshua 1:6-9? Name 3 examples of those who are successful in the Bible and 3 who were not. What made the difference in their lives? Name the 3 commands God gave to Joshua in verses 6-9. Which command did he repeat? How many times? Why? Why does it take courage to obey the word of God? These and other questions are addressed in this study in Joshua 1.
Ezekiel was a prophet called by God to serve as a watchman for Israel. Through symbolic actions like lying on his side for 430 days and preaching, Ezekiel warned Israel of coming judgment for their sins and idolatry. He also had visions of Israel's future restoration, including receiving a new heart and spirit, dry bones coming to life, and the rebuilt temple. Ezekiel prophesied of a time when Satan will be bound for 1000 years and Christ will rule during the Millennial Kingdom before the final battle and judgment. The Minor Prophets also warned Israel and surrounding nations while offering hope for the future through messages focused on obedience, justice, and restoration.
King Nebuchadnezzar held great power as king of Babylon, but this power came from God. Over time, Nebuchadnezzar became prideful and indifferent to God's power and prophecies. As punishment for his pride, God caused Nebuchadnezzar to live like an animal for seven years. After being humbled, Nebuchadnezzar proclaimed to his people that God is sovereign and rules over all earthly kingdoms.

The document provides an overview and summary of Exodus 20-40. It discusses how God establishes the terms of the covenant with His people at Mount Sinai, including giving them the Ten Commandments and other laws. The people fail to keep the covenant by worshipping a golden calf. Moses intercedes for them.

Introduction and Overview of the Book of DanielBodie Quirk
Learn about the context, the structure and key things to look for in your study of the Book of Daniel. Also included is an introduction and interpretation of the amazing prophecy in Daniel 9.
Nehemiah was the cupbearer to the Persian king who sacrificed his position of luxury to help the needy Jews in Jerusalem. He was distressed by their suffering and the condition of the city walls, so he obtained permission from the king to travel to Jerusalem as governor to rebuild the walls. Despite opposition, the walls were completed in just 52 days. Nehemiah then focused on religious revival - he had the people's ancestry registered, reestablished Temple worship, and had Ezra read the law to the people, bringing about genuine repentance. However, when Nehemiah returned briefly to Persia, he found the people had lapsed back into sin, so he strongly rebuked them.
The document provides an overview of the prophetic books of the Old Testament. It discusses that the prophetic period covers around 400 years leading up to and including the destruction of Jerusalem. There are 17 prophetic books written by 16 prophets. The prophets received messages from God to warn Israel of coming judgment for sins and to provide hope of restoration. Their messages were relevant to their own times but also looked ahead to the coming of the Messiah. The prophets served as God's spokesmen to instruct the people in following God's law.
The document discusses the sanctuary and its cleansing at the end of the 2300 day prophecy. It explains that at the end of the 2300 days in 1844, Jesus entered the most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary to begin the final phase of his work as high priest, cleansing the sanctuary. It emphasizes that this cleansing involves not just the sanctuary itself but also God's people, and that Jesus can only restore the sanctuary once God's people are fully restored and cleansed from sin. The sanctuary and God's people are inseparably linked, and the cleansing of one requires the cleansing of the other.
God created the Garden of Eden and all things within it as good. This included the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. God commanded Adam and Eve that they could eat from any tree except the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. However, Eve was deceived by the serpent to eat its fruit. Both Adam and Eve then ate the fruit, disobeying God. This first sin introduced sin and death into the world. The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil represented the choice and freedom that God gave humans to obey or disobey Him.
The document discusses various passages from the book of Daniel relating to end times prophecy. It argues that Daniel's prophecies of 2,300 days, 70 weeks, and 1,260/1,290/1,335 days all refer to a seven year period at the end of this age. The 2,300 days specifically represent seven sets of annual feasts from the first to last year. The document examines Jewish interpretations dating these periods to events surrounding the re-establishment of Israel in the 1940s. It maintains the last seven years are still to be fulfilled and points to possible start dates of 2014-2021 or 2017-2024.
The document discusses the parable of the ten virgins from Matthew 25:1-13. It provides commentary on the parable from Ellen White and other Adventist sources. Some key points made:
- The parable applies to Adventists in the last days as they await Christ's second coming.
- The lamps represent the Word of God, while the oil represents the Holy Spirit.
- The wise virgins studied the Scriptures intensely and received the Holy Spirit, while the foolish lacked the Holy Spirit.
- The parable and its meaning are still applicable today as the church awaits Christ's return.
Zechariah received visions concerning the future restoration and glory of Israel through the coming Messiah. His first vision featured riders on horses symbolizing God's conquest of enemies. Subsequent visions included a man measuring Jerusalem, Joshua the high priest in filthy garments, a golden lampstand representing God's church, and four chariots depicting God's angels. Zechariah counseled the Jews to faithfully serve God in light of future Messianic blessings, despite present distress. He prophesied judgment on nations and the coming of Zion's King riding humbly. The book looks forward to Israel's strengthening and ingathering by God.
Not unlike the effects of today’s Coronavirus, the older generation of Israel in the wilderness were dying. Numbers 20 begins with the death of Miriam (1) and concludes with the death of Aaron (28, 29). If you were to die today, what legacy would you leave? When was the last time you murmured or complained about something associated with COVID-19? What was your complaint? How did your criticism or complaint change you, your relationship with God and those around you? Why did the Lord send “fiery serpents among the people” (21:6)? What was Moses’ response when he heard their complaints and saw God’s judgment? (7) How should we be like Moses? What was the Lord’s response? (8) Why did Jesus compare Himself to Moses’ brazen serpent? (John 3:14-16) Why do many (sadly most) people refuse to look and live? (8)

This document provides a chart summarizing the 12 Minor Prophets of the Bible. It includes their approximate dates, the meanings of their names, the main themes or messages of their books, who their prophecies were directed towards, and the major sins of those people. Some of the key prophets mentioned are Obadiah against Edom, Joel about the Day of the Lord, Jonah sent to Nineveh, Amos concerning injustice, and Malachi preparing Israel for the coming messenger.
The document discusses various aspects of the sanctuary and temple worship as described in the Bible. It describes the furnishings and articles of the sanctuary, including the altar of incense, candlestick, table of showbread, veil, ark of the covenant containing the mercy seat, and their significance. It also discusses Jesus as the fulfillment of the sanctuary services and how Christians can come before God through prayer, Bible study, and living a sanctified life.
The document discusses the growth of green energy sources and policies to support their adoption. Many governments around the world have implemented renewable portfolio standards and incentives to increase investment and development of wind, solar, and other low-carbon energy technologies to combat climate change. These policies have led to cost reductions from technological improvements and economies of scale, making green energy more economically viable.
The document summarizes the 10 plagues that God brought upon Egypt through Moses and Aaron as judgments against Pharaoh for refusing to let the Israelites go. Each plague targeted and revealed God's supremacy over an idol or god worshipped by the Egyptians, such as the Nile god Hapy for the plague of blood, and frog goddess Heqet for the plague of frogs. The final plague was the death of all firstborn, from Pharaoh to the lowliest slave, fulfilling God's warning to pass over homes with lamb's blood.

The document discusses the presence of God and the importance of pursuing Him. It references Bible passages about seeking God's face and drawing near to Him. There are three angles to God's presence: His omnipresence, manifested presence, and felt presence.

The document emphasizes Jethro's important role in Moses' life and God's orchestration of their relationship.

Activating this spirit involves being connected to God rather than relying on other people's counsel and having faith even when God's counsel seems illogical. The next session will cover the spirit of might.

April 15 2018 - Sunday service 7 Realities of Experiencing GodCatherine Lirio
God is always at work and pursuing a relationship with humanity. When God calls someone to a task, it requires faith and adjustments to current life. By obeying God despite inadequacies or difficulties, one comes to know God through experience as God accomplishes his work through that person. This is illustrated in the life of Moses, who despite his objections and crisis of belief, obeyed God in delivering the Israelites from Egypt. When Moses and the Israelites crossed the Red Sea on dry land, they directly experienced God's power and presence.
Joshua is appointed as the new leader of Israel to replace Moses and lead the people into the Promised Land. God promises Joshua that he will always be with him and help him, just as he helped Moses, and that wherever Joshua goes he will give them the land. God commands Joshua to be strong, brave, and to not be afraid, as God will be with him. Joshua instructs the people to prepare food for the journey into the land that God is giving them.
The document discusses overcoming fear through having a close relationship with God. It encourages enlarging one's vision, strengthening resolve, and not being afraid as God will be with believers. It highlights how Joshua overcame fear by learning from Moses' example of walking closely with God. It emphasizes choosing God over the world by having faith in Him through prayer, God's word, and making Him the priority in decisions. Sin creates fear but confessing and repenting restores fellowship with God.

What does it mean "taking the shield of faith"? Why does a Christian require a "shield"? What is faith? Is all faith the same? How does faith protect? Do you know how to use the "shield of faith"?
More is written about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ than of any other person in history. Why is that? What did He accomplish by dying on the cross? Why was His resurrection necessary? Is there strong attestation to Christ's resurrection? Must we believe He is alive today? How does the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth effect you?
All four Gospels -- Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John -- record the triumphal entry of Jesus Christ into the city of Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, Nisan 10. This study is an exposition of John 12:12-19 and answers the question: "What's most important about Palm Sunday?"
What does "having your feet shod with the gospel of peace" mean? How does a Christian prepare their feet? Why is comparing the armor of God to the Roman soldier inappropriate? To what is this metaphor more likely referring?
What is the Christian's "Breastplate of Righteousness" described in Ephesians 6? We are often told the believer's armor is to be compared to that of a Roman soldier. Is this accurate? Study this lesson, and if possible, listen on FaceBook or YouTube by typing my name and the title or text of this study.
The first piece mentioned in the panoply of the "armor of God" for the Christian is "the belt of truth." But, what is truth? Why is it listed first? Why is it vital and what does it protect? Jesus said to Pilate, "To this end was I born, and for this cause I came into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth." (18:37)
George Washington said citizens owe a duty to defend their free government with their property and services. Haile Selassie issued an order to mobilize all able-bodied Ethiopians, including women and children, to fight the Italian invasion. The Bible passage from Ephesians exhorts believers to be strong in the Lord and put on the full armor of God to stand against spiritual attacks from Satan and fight against evil spiritual forces.
The document provides an overview of how Christians are called to "walk worthy" according to passages in Ephesians and other books of the Bible. It discusses that believers are to walk in unity, love, light, and by being filled with the Spirit. Specific instructions are given, such as putting off the old self and putting on the new, imitating God, and walking in wisdom. The goal is for believers to mature in Christ through developing humility, gentleness, patience, and by submitting to one another out of reverence for God.
What is the Bible all about? What is its purpose? How can we get the most out of studying the Bible?
This lesson is part of a series of studies entitle, "Living the Word" taught at the Lighthouse Freedom Center. These slides will help you if you're following us online on Sunday at 8:45.
In many ways Jacob is a picture of every person. We were all by nature selfish, deceitful, "graspers". Jacob is a type of our human carnal nature. But, Jacob changed! One night he wrestled with the Lord and begged for a blessing. His blessing came in the form of a changed character, reflected in his new name: Israel. Israel is a picture of a person changed by God, someone with whom the Spirit of God dwells.
A. When? The vision occurred in the year that King Uzziah died.
B. What? Isaiah saw God sitting on a throne and was overwhelmed by God's holiness, confessing his own sinfulness. A seraphim then cleansed Isaiah's sins with a burning coal.
C. Why? God then commissioned Isaiah to go and speak for God, to which Isaiah responded saying "Here am I, send me."
God's sovereignty is evident in every aspect of life. Redemption is the overarching purpose of divine sovereignty. Genesis 31 reveals God's hand and heart in Jacob's relationship with Laban, a wiley, manipulative uncle, father-in-law, employer. This chapter is filled with lots of practical, relevant lessons in God's redemption for all of us.
The document summarizes several passages from the gospels describing Jesus' interactions with various disciples and others after his resurrection. It describes how two disciples traveling to Emmaus encounter Jesus but do not recognize him, and how he explains to them prophecies about the Messiah. It also recounts how Jesus later reveals himself to the disciples during a meal and to Mary Magdalene at the empty tomb.
What prevents world unity? Why have the world’s best of intentions and brightest of minds failed, abysmally, and repeatedly to achieve world unity and peace? What are common causes for disunity and conflict among Christians? How can church conflict strengthen and improve a congregation? When is church conflict destructive? What does James say is a common cause for conflict among Christians? (Jas. 4:1) What four steps does James give believers for conflict resolution? (Jas. 4:1-3; 4-6; 7-10; 11-12)
Jacob employed selective breeding strategies with Laban's cattle and flocks in order to increase his own herds. He used visual cues and separated the stronger specimens for breeding to concentrate desirable traits. As a result, Jacob's herds greatly increased in number while Laban's decreased, allowing Jacob to acquire significant wealth before leaving Padan Aram.
How is COVID-19 different from previous pandemics in history? How does the Coronavirus compare to future pestilences prophesied in the Bible? Do you think God sent the Coronavirus as a harbinger of future pandemics? If so, what should be learn about God and ourselves during COVID-19? As Christians how should we respond to pandemics? Do you have peace and hope? Why? How is your life, currently, giving others, especially non-Christians, cause to ask you for “an answer (lit. the reason) for the hope that lies in you”? (1 Peter 3:15)
God teaches each of us using sometimes intensely painful circumstances to inculcate profound and powerful lessons. Such was the case with Jacob, the deceiver, who spent 20 years with his uncle Laban being on the receiving end of deceitfulness. Everyone, Jacob and Laban, Leah and Rachel, and Zilpah and Bilhah learn life's lessons in God's classroom, known as Genesis 29.
How has COVID-19 changed you? Has the Coronavirus in any way changed your view of yourself, of the world, and of God? If so, have these changes been positive? Explain. As much as we may value science and medicine, what inherent limitations prevent us from basing our lives on them? (2 Timothy 6:19-21) How did each of the plagues defeat a god in Egypt? (Exodus 7-12) How do you think God, the Almighty God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of Israel, the Lord Jesus Christ, is challenging the gods of our world today through COVID-19? (1 Samuel 17:47; 2 Chronicles 20:15-16; Zechariah 4:6)

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

2. Isaiah 66:8 Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen
such things? Shall the earth be made to give birth in one
day? Or shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as
Zion was in labor, she gave birth to her children.
6. 6 Be strong and of good courage, for to this
people you shall divide as an inheritance
the land which I swore to their fathers to
give them. 7 Only be strong and very
courageous, that you may observe to do
according to all the law which Moses My
servant commanded you; do not turn from
it to the right hand or to the left, that you
may prosper wherever you go.
7. 8 This Book of the Law shall not depart from
your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day
and night, that you may observe to do
according to all that is written in it. For then
you will make your way prosperous, and
then you will have good success. 9 Have I
not commanded you? Be strong and of
good courage; do not be afraid, nor be
dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you
wherever you go.”

11. First Mention of Joshua
Exodus 17:8–10 Now Amalek came and fought
with Israel in Rephidim. 9 And Moses said to
Joshua, “Choose us some men and go out, fight
with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top
of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.” 10 So
Joshua did as Moses said to him, and fought
with Amalek. And Moses, Aaron, and Hur went
up to the top of the hill.
Exodus 17:13 So Joshua defeated Amalek and
his people with the edge of the sword.
12. Joshua Witnessed the Record of Victory
Exodus 17:14 Then the LORD said to Moses,
“Write this for a memorial in the book and
recount it in the hearing of Joshua, that I will
utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek
from under heaven.”
13. Joshua with Moses on the Mountain
Exodus 24:12–13 Then the LORD said to Moses,
“Come up to Me on the mountain and be there;
and I will give you tablets of stone, and the law
and commandments which I have written, that
you may teach them.” 13 So Moses arose with
his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up to the
mountain of God.
14. Joshua with Moses in the Tabernacle
Exodus 33:7 Moses took his tent and pitched it
outside the camp, far from the camp, and called
it the tabernacle of meeting. And it came to
pass that everyone who sought the LORD went
out to the tabernacle of meeting which was
outside the camp.
Exodus 33:11 So the LORD spoke to Moses face
to face, as a man speaks to his friend. And he
would return to the camp, but his servant
Joshua the son of Nun, a young man, did not
depart from the tabernacle.
15. Numbers 13:1–2 And the LORD spoke to Moses,
saying, 2 “Send men to spy out the land of Canaan,
which I am giving to the children of Israel; from
each tribe of their fathers you shall send a man,
every one a leader among them.”

16. Numbers 13:16 These are the names of the men
whom Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses

and said to him in the sight of all Israel, “Be strong
and of good courage, for you must go with this
people to the land which the LORD has sworn to
their fathers to give them, and you shall cause
them to inherit it. 8 And the LORD, He is the One
who goes before you. He will be with you, He will
not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be
dismayed.”
18. Joshua Commissioned by God
Deuteronomy 31:14–15 Then the LORD said to
Moses, “Behold, the days approach when you
must die; call Joshua, and present yourselves in
the tabernacle of meeting, that I may inaugurate
him.” So Moses and Joshua went and presented
themselves in the tabernacle of meeting. 15 Now
the LORD appeared at the tabernacle in a pillar of
cloud, and the pillar of cloud stood above the
door of the tabernacle.
19. Joshua Commissioned by God
Deuteronomy 31:23 Then He inaugurated Joshua
the son of Nun, and said, “Be strong and of good
courage; for you shall bring the children of Israel
into the land of which I swore to them, and I will
be with you.”

37. This book of the law
Joshua was the 1st leader to have a book as the foundation of guidance
Moses was guided by oral directives from God
Joshua was to use the book of the law all written by Moses as his guide
The book (Torah) was, actually, a continuous scroll.
It was kept inside of the ark of the covenant

41. Enter the promised land
The promised land is not a place of rest by Kevin
It is not an idiom for heaven
It was battles to fight and lands to claim
They were commanded to be strong and courageous!
42. The book of Joshua in the letter of Paul to the Ephesians are
considered spiritual parallels
Joshua is about the physical battle of God’s people with
enemies possessing their promised land.
Ephesians is about the spiritual battle of the church and
believers in Christ with the spiritual enemy Satan
Editor's Notes
Golda Meir is famous for becoming Israel's first female Prime Minister in 1969. However, many are unaware of the pivotal role she played in 1948.
Israel desperately needed modern weapons if it's rag-tag band of Jewish fighters were to stand a chance against the impending onslaught by five modern Arab armies.
However, their main funding source - the US Jewish community - was already stretched to the limit with various local projects such as schools and other Jewish institutions. They were growing tired of the incessant appeals for help from the Jews of Palestine, and it was estimated that they would only be able to raise $5 million for Israel - just a fraction of the amount needed.
Zionist leader Golda Meir immediately volunteered to go to America. Two days later she was on her way having had no time to bring any more baggage than her handbag! Armed with $10 in her pocket, the determined Golda set out in search for the missing millions.
Coinciding with her arrival in Chicago was a meeting of the leaders of Jewish federations from across the US. However, many of these distinguished Jewish leaders were indifferent or even hostile to Golda's Zionist ideas.
Warned not to address this particular group, Golda ignored the warning and delivered a rousing impromptu speech to the gathering about the dire challenges facing the fledgling state. Explaining that the survival of Palestine's 700,000 Jews as well as the whole dream of a Jewish nation was at stake, she stressed the absolute immediate need for funds to fight.
As she ended her speech, the hall fell eerily silent - and for a moment it seemed like Golda had failed miserably. Then the audience rose and delivered a resounding applause, and many began telephoning their bankers to take up immediate personal loans.
By the time the evening was over, over $1 million dollars had been raised! Over the next few weeks, Golda succeeded in raising 50 million dollars - which was three times the amount Saudi Arabia earned during that entire year from its vast oil revenues!
As Golda triumphantly returned to Israel, Ben Gurion solemnly declared that 'it was thanks to a Jewish woman that the Jewish state was born'.
Over 4'500 volunteers from abroad - both Jews and non-Jews - joined Israel's struggle in 1948.
One such hero was the 23 year old Esther Callingold from Britain. A nurse by profession, she was sent to assist the beleaguered Jews in the Old City of Jerusalem. As the Arabs cut off all supply routes and subjected the area to heavy bombardment, Esther was tasked with running messages between the scattered and isolated Jewish troops.
The battle was intense, but ultimately Esther ended up mortally wounded in a poorly equipped hospital. Before her death, she penned this letter to her parents in Britain:
"Dear Mummy and Daddy,
.... We had a difficult fight. I have tasted hell, but it has been worthwhile because I am convinced that we will see a Jewish state.... I hope one day soon you will all come and enjoy the fruits of that for which we are fighting.
.... remember me only in happiness.
Shalom, Esther"
It is hard not to be touched by Esther's story of courage and sacrifice, and we should remember that she was only one of 6,300 Israeli soldiers and civilians who paid the ultimate price during Israel's costly War of Independence.
Ultimately through the hard work, creative genius and sacrifice of so many heroes like these we have described, the nation of Israel was born 'in one day' as Isaiah predicted.
It was not an easy birth, but let us give thanks to God for those who paid so much to see the Jewish nation restored to her rightful inheritance.
In honoring their sacrifice, let us follow Esther's admonition to go and visit and enjoy the God-given Land of Israel.
