The Power of the Lord.

So in addition to trying to improve my own spiritual walk, I'm also working with my kids on making sure I have a nightly bible study with them. Now I'm not going to pretend that I'm batting a thousand with that, but we are getting more consistent with the Study. I had settled on 1 Samuel as the text, and we are doing up to a chapter an evening. The main purpose of course is to read the Word of God to them every night.

So Last evening we got to 1 Samuel Chapter 5. I admit it has been some time since I had read it myself, and it reminded me of what power the Lord displays in the Old Testament some times. I was also reminded of the 1st commandment.

Exodus 20:3 (NASB95)

3 “You shall have no other gods before Me.

  

The Lord brought down Dagon. And when the philistines attempted to erect him again, the Lord

Destroyed this false God. Then he inflicts those who would seek to keep his Ark with tumors.

Oh that we would be mindful of the Lord and his power and forget not to worship him as we should.
