Psalm 106:30 ‘Then stood up Phinehas.’

Psalm 106:30'Then stood up Phinehas.' There seem to be, on record in the Scriptures, only two men having the name of Phinehas.

Psalm 71:18 ‘Yea, even when I am old and gray-headed, forsake me not.’

Psalm 71:18'Yea, even when I am old and gray-headed, forsake me not.' This is a glorious example of a child of God praying the promises of God; something of which we should each take personal note. The bottom line, to put it that way, of all of our prayingas exemplified by our Lord and Saviorshould always be, 'thy will be done.' And how could that summation possibly be sa...

But straightway a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell down at his feet. Now the woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by race. And she besought him that he would ca...

Judges 2:10 ‘And there arose another generation after them, that knew not Jehovah.’

Judges 2:10'And there arose another generation after them, that knew not Jehovah.' Why? Did Joshua and his contemporaries fail in bringing up their children in the fear and admonition of the Lord?
