HER REGRET  : Miriam,with all her help in preserving the life of her brother, could not enter the promised land as she for her arrogance and insurbordination. HER STORY IN BRIEF : Miriam was the only daughter among Moses and Aeron. She would comport herself when her mum, Jechrobet, hid the baby Moses from Pharaoh and his executioning team for three months. When Moses was finally taken to the river Nile and hidden in a basket by her mum, Miriam would stay a little longer than her mum did, keeping her eyes on the basket to see if anyone would reach out for it.

THE EYES OF GOD !

“The eyes of the Lord run to and from through the whole earth.” Zechariah 4:10. The Greek name for God is Theos. It comes from the Greek root which makes up the word Theisthai, and that means, ” To see”. So God is the One who sees! God’s eyes refer to the all-knowing, all-seeing limitlessness of God, and yet at the same time His personal, ever-caring nature. Now does He see like men do? The content below exposes the uniqueness of God’s eyes. Emotional. God doesn’t only speak or show visions ! He often communicates with His eyes too. God’s eyes help Him to convey His feelings. The eyes He bears on His frowning face differ from those that appear on His smiley face. Now it takes spiritual discernment to ably tell what God says through His eyes at a time. Same eyes that show His displeasure, sadness, or anger now, at a different time may reveal His satisfaction, gladness or mercy. We can tell through His eyes if there’s an impending destruction or honour. We understand from Genesis 6:8 tha...

THE GRACE OF GIVING

  “…see that you also excel in this   GRACE OF GIVING .” 2 Corinthians 8:7. It’s an indisputable fact that our walk with God is strictly a walk of sacrifice or giving. We are either giving of our strength, possessions or money. But the seeds we sow, in the form of tithes, firstfruits, or thanksgiving often yield below the peak for some christians. Such are they that are advised by Apostle Paul to excel in The Grace of Giving. One may ask, “what extra Grace do we need for giving?” ; “aren’t we supposed to simply give and wait for results?” Emphatically, NO ! Giving is disciplined by principles. There’s the need for spiritual privilege – a reconditioning of The human Spirit so one can passionately, continuously and comprehensively offer of his or her own unto The Lord. And it’s only the Grace of Giving that positions us in this state. By this Grace, we first submit ourselves (our hearts ) to God; because our hearts are now governed by God, He alone – by His Spirit, determines ho...

ELI

 


MEANING OF NAME: Jehovah is high or my God 


HIS JOY: His good personality earned him admiration and corporation from his fellow Israelites during his ministry.


HIS REGRET: His two sons let him down by their low quality characters.


STORY IN BRIEF:

Eli, a Levi, was from the family of Ithamar. He served as the priest and a high judge of Israel for about 40years.


Though Eli himself was a good man, his two sons were not. Yet He made them occupy the Priestly positions. And when they went wrong, Eli would only warn them. He did not rebuke them. 


Eli paid deerly for lack of proper parental control when his two sons were slaid in the battle with the Philistines, where the Israelites also lost the ark.


Eli, on hearing this, fell over his back and died breaking his neck. And because that Glory was departed from Israel, Eli's daughter-in-Law  named the son she immediately brought forth, " Ichabod " which means, " without Glory ".
