The Bible

 Mount Rushmore in South Dakota, USA, has the faces of four great former presidents in American history: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln. What the sculpted figures have in common is that they were the presidents of the United States who respected the Bible and the Word of God, as the basic ideology of their politics.

Former president George Washington once said, "it is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible." It is said that Thomas Jefferson might have based the Declaration of Independence on the Bible. The way to find yourself in the Bible and to live wisely, justly, righteously and honestly to be guided by the Word.

Joseph, who was taken into slavery in Egypt, was an eternal failure in the eyes of the world. But Joseph had spiritual eyes that others did not know. Moses, Jethro, and Rahab were all people who went beyond their circumstances and saw God's plan for Israel.

When the country faced a crisis, Samuel raised David, and when the crisis came, Hannah asked for a Nazarite. Elisha and Obadiah knew who God was looking for in the Philistines. In the days of Babylon, when they were in despair, Daniel and his three friends were in states of despair and faced death, but still they resolved; and Esther said that if she perish, she would perish.

The characteristics of Romans 16 were those who knew Christ, knew God, and knew the work of the Holy Spirit. Civil servants like Gaius, or treasurers like Erastus saw God's plan as public servants who saved the field in times of crises. 

You are people of God, who will be seen by unbelievers in the field of who are considered to be with God 24 hours a day in 2022!! I pray for you and, I love you. 

1/01/2022.     Be filled with Christ in the new year.
