                        Book of Job bible study chapters 21 through 31 

            This bible study is a further continuation of the dialog that goes on between Job and his three so called friends, which goes on up to the end of Job’s main speeches in the book. Job is the main speaker in this book too, especially what with his discourse at the end of this group of chapters. This is part 3 of a bible study on the entire book of Job. Here is a link to the previous chapters of the book of Job, 11 through 20

                                    Book of Job bible study chapters 11 through 20

Job and his three friends, Bildad, Eliphaz and Zophar all speak in turns in this passage of scripture. This is a continuation of the first bible study on Job, so please check the link below:

In chapter 11 Zophar takes a turn speaking to Job

(Job 11:1)  Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:

(Job 11:2)  "Should a multitude of words go unanswered, and a man full of talk be judged...

                                    Book of Job bible study chapters 1 through 10

            This deals with the tragic story of Job, the first ten chapters here present when Job loses everything and everyone near to him and then is then stricken with boils. Job does not know it but it is all a test by Satan to see if Job will curse God, who has blessed him. God gives Job over to Satan’s hands for the purposes of this test, for Satan feels sure if Job would be afflicted he’d curse God, but he never does, making him a model for us all, for very few ever go through anything like Job did. The chapters also cover the start of the dialog between Job and his three friends. I won’t put much comment between the responses and replies of the various people speaking because I do not want to diminish the impact of the ongoing dialog between the people and action in this (only) part  by my comments.

In chapter 1 Job loses most/all of his possessions and family upon...

AMAZING GRACE

John 8:4-5 "They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?"

JOHN 8:1-11

This was possibly the most potentially damaging temptation the scribes and Pharisees ever presented to Jesus. Much of Jesus' widespread popularity with the people was because of His examples of and...

                                                Interpretation bible study

            This is a bible study of various forms of interpretation. It includes mostly various dream interpretations done for others, but also dream and vision interpretation done by angels for Daniel, a writing interpretation, and lastly Philip making scripture clear for the Eunuch in Acts chapter 8. The message shown again and again also is to be humble enough to ask for help interpreting something if it is confusing, by prayer to God, in faith, and/ or asking someone else who is gifted in interpretation as the two people who are in the study are indeed.

            The first example of dream interpretation is Genesis chapter 40 notices a couple of fellow prisoners are downcast and upon asking them why they are downcast finds out that they each have had dreams without interpretation. He then asks them to tell the details of their dreams to him, for He will pray to God for, and...

EFFORTLESS FRUIT

John 7:38 "He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water."

JOHN 7:37-41

These rivers of living water are referring to the Holy Spirit and the effects He produces in the life of the believer. Galatians 5:22-23 says, "the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance."...

Dear Heavenly Father, we thank You for the many blessings you have given us. Lord, we never want to become offended with You. Help us to realize that it is the devil who is bringing us the problems in our lives and it is You Who will make a way for us to overcome him. Help us to remain in a joyful attitude even in our trials and tribulations, knowing that You will bring us through victoriously! Lord, we also ask that we will be able to resist all contention with any brother or sister in the Lord. Let us love them with your love. Lord, we humble ourselves to You knowing You will take care of all our troubles when we honestly give them to You and yield to Your ways. I ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen.

                                    Book of Esther bible study

            Here is a bible study on the female Esther and Modecai in the kingdom with Ahasuerus who was the king and also Haman’s evil plot to execute Mordecai and have all the Jews slaughtered because they refused to bow to Haman, who was promoted. However Haman’s evil plot is foiled in part by prayer and intercession made by all the Jews who were affected by the decree and then Haman ends up executed on the very same gallows he had planned to hang Mordecai on and the Jews themselves defend themselves successfully against the attacks of their enemies and get their revenge upon these enemies. Haman’s ten sons are also put to death while this is done. This book of Esther shows how responsive God is indeed to prayers in faith for protection and deliverance against enemies and other things, for that matter.

In chapter 1 of Esther king Ahasuerus’ then queen Vashti offends him by refusing to come to...

                                                Book of Nehemiah bible study

            Here is the book of Nehemiah which like Ezra is a post exile story. This time the story is dealing with the fact that the walls and gates of Jerusalem are destroyed and Nehemiah is concerned with the welfare of the returned exiles there seeing that there are no walls to protect them. He asks the king of Persia to rebuild them and moved by the hand of God the King agrees with the request to do so. The walls and gates around Jerusalem were indeed built and also the word of God read before the people at the new temple, by Ezra. For the story of the rebuilding of the temple please go to this link which is a study of the book of Ezra
