Bible study notes
My favourite verse today is Joshua 1:8 "This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you sall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperious, and then you will have success." God didn't command Moses to be strong and courageous, because the foundation of success hasn't been built yet. So many people felt the calling of God, and just want to step over the foundation part and go straight into posession mode, they try to be strong and courageous, but soon finds out that it doesn't work. Moses' life is a foundation for Joshua, to let him know what will work, what will not work. And if you build upon the foundation of verse 8, you'll be safe, if anything astray, you're in for trouble. ... Proverb 1:8-19 to me seems to be a continual part of Col 3 of yesterday. Husbands, love your wives. It's a most precious thing to see a man love with full passion. It's hard to see a man love in love's full strength, that's why it's so beautiful in movies to see man love with a passion and romance. It's not hard to see woman romantic, but hard to find real romantic man. That's probably why the enemy tries so hard to steal the love of man, and usually once the first love of man's gone, it's very hard to get him passionate again. Probably the weakest point in man is the lust of eyes. The enemy works so hard to get, distract, kill the man's love through their weak points. I've seen many women hurt in relationships, and after a while they can still love with passion. But if a man gets hurt, when he's fully in love, especially when he's young, it might take a lifetime to heal. And sadly for most men, their first love can never be regained. And when the love of men's gone, you can't blame that the women find it very hard to submit. I think too much teachings are focusing on to get women to submit, but not enough teachings to really help men to love properly.
