Dear
Heavenly Father, thank you for our sons and daughters, we ask for wisdom, as we
seek your strength in raising them, knowing the truth of your word.
Help us that
we never hold them too tightly to ourselves or develop an attitude of parental
selfishness, but help us to equip them to become strong and independent men of
God; walking in a positive attitude of responsibility, wisdom and faithfulness
to you father as they continue to grow older and take up their own positions in
this world.
I pray that
you will continue to nourish their hearts and minds with your word and holy
spirit in times of stress or uncertainty in their lives; for them to be
receptive to the wisdom of your holy words. Father continue to anoint them with
wisdom, courage, prudence and great insight of the events to come, that they
may discern between right and wrong.
Father we
ask that you place in our sons and daughters a desire to pursue wisdom and
understanding of your word, that only comes from above and to have the patience
and courage to obey and teach it. Prevent them from being wise in their own
eyes, but grow to fear you and shun evil. LORD we commit our sons and daughters
into your hands to keep and nourish them in your spirit and protection.
We love them
dearly father, yet we know that Your love for our sons and daughters far exceed
the love that we could ever have, we pray that you keep them under the shadow
of your protective wings; may Your holy spirit lead them and guide them into
ALL truth and may they grow in Your grace and mature in the faith of Christ. We
ask this in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; Amen
Heavenly
Father, you are the God of Israel, God of wisdom and understanding, God of love
and peace, we pray that your perfect peace would fill our hearts and our home and
that your gracious love would surround our family, that we might be united in
truth and love being one with You. We pray that you bind us together in your
word daily in sweet fellowship with one another in your presence. Give us
wisdom and discernment daily, that we may deal with each other in righteousness
and love. Thank you, Father, for providing all that we have and need, according
to your riches in glory. We ask you Father to keep us from holding on too
tightly to the material things of this world and concentrate on your ‘just
reward’ you promised us in the next world to come. May your blessings continue
to rest on this household and on all the righteous households of Israel; not
only today but in the days to come, until the return of our redeemer comes to
deliver us from the hand of our enemies in this world and takes us home to be
with you in your presence forever. In the name of Christ Jesus, we pray these
words. Amen
Father, we kneel at your feet this day, we thank you for all
that you’ve done for us thus far, especially in these dark times when the world
seems to be in turmoil; we know that You are in control of all things, good and
bad, we acknowledge Your grace and mercy at work in our lives. We also
acknowledge and confess our sins to you, heavenly father, and we humbly ask for
forgiveness of said sins and transgressions; create in us a clean heart, take
not your holy spirit from us, refresh our souls and renew our spirits daily.
Father God we ask for your healing of our past pains and
transgressions, we ask for forgiveness of our ancestors and their
transgressions also. Continue to heal us from the hurt and insecurities of this
evil wicked world. We need you, your holy spirit of protection and guidance
every day of our lives. Thank you, Father, for giving us your son and his
precious blood to cover our sins and the sins of our ancestors. Thank you for
the blood that covers our family and friends in this truth, keeping us safe
from harm, sickness and disease. We thank you Father for your holy angels
providing comfort and protection around us, keeping us safe from the evils of
this world.
Father, let our thoughts and words be that of your holy word;
we seek to be closer to you with meekness and in true sincerity, we know that
with You, all things are possible and all things are meant for our growth and
learning. We ask that You bless and protect all of Israel that seeks You, that
needs You and believes in You, your son, your word and do those things required
in it. We also ask that their hearts be set free from sadness and depression,
we ask that their bodies be freed from illness, we ask that their minds be set
free of anxiety and worries. May your peace and serenity overcome all Israel and
their cries be heard. In
the name of Christ Jesus, we pray these words.Amen.
Magnificent God, Holy One of Israel, Today is a new day, a
chance for a new start, Yesterday is gone and with it any regrets, mistakes or
failures we may have experienced. Today is a good day to be glad and give our
Heavenly Father thanks, and right now, at this moment, we do this with humble
hearts and contrite spirits. Thank you, Lord, for today, a new opportunity to
love, appreciate, give, teach, heal, comfort, assist, encourage, and to build
up; to be all that You want us to be, and do all that You require of us to do.
Today, we want to start the day with you on our minds and in our hearts. As we
dress ourselves, let us wear the armor of your word which you provide to us
daily, the sword of your spirit which encourages the prayer on our tongues:
offering praises to you, petitions on the behalf of those around us, and those
of your people we meet daily. Continue to feed us with your daily bread, the
bread of life, like the manna you provided to your people (our ancestors) in
the wilderness, which sustains us throughout the many trials of this wicked
world; we hunger and thirst for your knowledge and the understanding of your
holy word in these dark times. Help us to set our thoughts upon the things from
above, to speak the things that will help to encourage ourselves and all Israel.
Keep and guard us from an evil tongue, help guard us from vile affections of
our hearts today, Lord. As we start this day, remind us that we belong to you,
our lives are not our own and our desires in this life should prove
accordingly.
Father, we ask that you keep our feet from stumbling and our
minds from wandering into the distractions of this wicked world that tends to
steal precious time and energy from the most important things you have designed
and require of us. Today and every day, we want to live our lives for you,
Father. In the name of Christ Jesus, we pray these
words. Amen

rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may

rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:
Pro 1:22How long, ye
simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight
in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
Pro 1:23Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour
out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
Pro 1:24 Because I have
called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand,
and no
man regarded;
Pro 1:25 But ye have set
at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
Pro 1:26I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
Pro 1:27When your fear cometh as desolation,
and your destruction cometh as a
whirlwind; when distress and
anguish cometh upon you.
Pro 1:28Then shall
they call upon me, but I will not answer;

shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:

Deu 28:1 And it shall come to pass, ifthou shalt hearken diligently unto the
voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to doall his commandments which I command thee this
day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above
all nations of the earth:
Deu 28:15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not
hearken unto the voice of the LORDthy
God, to
observe to do all his commandments and his statuteswhich I command thee this day; that all these
cursesshall come upon thee, and overtake thee:

children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself:
I am the LORD.
The Consequence of NOT Keeping The Laws of God:
Hos 4:6My people are
destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge,
I will
also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast
forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

Mal 2:7 For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they
should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the
messenger of the LORD of hosts.
Hos 4:7 As they
were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore
will I change their glory into shame.
Hos 5:15I will go
and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and
seek my face:
in their
affliction they will seek me early.
OUR ONLY HOPE TO A BETTER LIFE With OUR GOD & EACH OTHER:
2Ch 7:14If my people,
which are called by my name, shall humble
themselves, and pray, and
seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways;
then will I
hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man
became a living soul.

and turned him into it again.
Sir 17:2He gave them few days, and a short time, and power also
over the things therein.
W.O.S.
7:25
For she is the breath of the power of God,
and a pure influence flowing from the glory of the Almighty: therefore can no
defiled thing fall into her.
W.O.S.
7:22
For wisdom, which is the worker of all things, taught
me: for in her is an understanding
spirit holy, one only, manifold, subtil, lively, clear, undefiled, plain, not subject to hurt, loving the
thing that is good quick, which cannot be letted, ready to do good
W.O.S.
6:12Wisdom is glorious, and never
fadeth away: yea, she is easily seen of them that love her, and found of such
as seek her.
W.O.S.
6:18
And love is the keeping of her laws;
and the giving heed unto her laws is the assurance of incorruption;
W.O.S.
6:19
And incorruption maketh us near unto
God:
W.O.S.
6:20
Therefore the desire of wisdom
bringeth to a kingdom.
Sir 24:28The first man
knew her not perfectly: no more shall the last find her out.

Esd 4:30
For the grain of evil seed hath been
sown in the heart of Adam from the beginning, and how much ungodliness hath it brought up unto this time? and
how much shall it yet bring forth until the time of threshing come?
Gen 3:17 And unto Adam he
said, Because thou hast hearkened
unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou
shalt not eat of it: cursed
is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
Gen 3:18 Thorns also and
thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the
field;
Gen 3:19In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat
bread, till thou return unto
the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
2 Esd 7:1 And when I had made an end of speaking these
words, there was sent unto me
the angel which had been sent unto me the nights afore:
2 Esd 7:2 And he said unto me, Up, Esdras, and
hear the words that I am come to tell
thee.
2 Esd 7:3 And I said, Speak on, my God(messenger). Then said he unto me, The sea is set in a wide place,
that it might be deep and great.
The Kingdom
2 Esd 7:4But put the case the entrance were
narrow, and like a river;
2 Esd 7:5 Who then could go
into the sea to look upon it, and to rule it? if he went not through the narrow, how could he come into the broad?
2 Esd 7:6There is also another thing; A city is builded, and set upon a broad
field, and is full of all good things:
2 Esd 7:7The entrance thereof is narrow,
and is set in a dangerous place to
fall, like as if there were a
fire on the right hand, and on
the left a deep water:
Life Trials & Tribulation- Death & Future Rewards
2 Esd 7:8 And one only path
between them both, even between the fire and the water, so small that there could but one man go there at once. (live & walk
your own path-can’t save anybody)
2 Esd 7:9 If this city now were given unto a man for
an inheritance, if he never
shall pass the danger set before it, how shall he receive this inheritance?
2 Esd 7:10 And I said, It is
so, Lord. Then said he unto me, Even
so also is Israel's portion. (walk narrow path to get the Kingdom)
2 Esd 7:11 Because for their sakes I made the world:
and when Adam transgressed my
statutes, then was decreed
that now is done.
2 Esd 7:12Then were the entrances of this world
made narrow, full of sorrow
and travail: they are but few and evil, full of perils, (problems): and very painful.
2 Esd 7:13 For the entrances of the elder world were
wide and sure, and brought
immortal fruit.
2 Esd 7:14 If then they that
live labour not to enter these strait and vain things, they can never receive
those that are laid up for them. (don’t give up-Fight on)
2 Esd 7:15 Now therefore why disquietest thou thyself, seeing thou art but a corruptible man?
and why art thou moved,
whereas thou art but mortal? (get to work-not
much time)
2 Esd 7:16Why hast thou not considered in thy mind
this thing that is to come, rather
than that which is present?
Sir 11:14Prosperity and adversity, life and death, poverty and riches, come of the
Lord.
Sir 2:4Whatsoever is brought upon thee take
cheerfully, and be patientwhen thou art changed to a low estate.
Sir 2:5 For gold is tried in the fire, and acceptable men in the furnace of
adversity.
Sir 2:6Believe in him, and he will help thee;
order thy way aright, and trust in
him.
Deu 32:39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is
no god with me: I kill, and I make
alive; I wound, and I heal:
neither is there any that can deliver
out of my hand.
(Job 1 -3, 42:10-17)
Sir 14:11 My son, according to thy ability do good to
thyself, and give the Lord
his due offering. (Keep the Laws)
Sir 14:12Remember that death will not be long in
coming, and that the covenant
of the grave is not shewed unto thee. (Gen
3:19)
Sir 14:13Do good unto thy friend before thou die,
and according to thy ability stretch
out thy hand and give to him.
Sir 14:14Defraud not thyself of the good day,
and let not the part of a good desire
overpass thee.
Sir 14:15Shalt thou not leave thy travails unto another?
and thy labours to be divided by lot?
Sir 14:16Give, and take, and sanctify thy soul;
for there is no seeking of dainties
in the grave.
Sir 14:17All flesh waxeth old as a garment:
for the covenant from the beginning is, Thou shalt die the death.
Sir 14:18 As of the green leaves on a thick tree,
some fall, and some grow; so
is the generation of flesh and blood, one cometh to an end, and another is born.
Sir 14:19Every work rotteth and consumeth away,
and the worker thereof shall go
withal.
Seek Wisdom like a Beautiful Woman
Sir 14:20Blessed is the man that doth meditate
good things in wisdom, and that
reasoneth of holy things by his understanding.
Sir 14:21He that considereth her ways in his
heartshall also have
understanding in her secrets.
Sir 14:22Go after her as one that traceth,
and lie in wait in her ways.
Sir 14:23 He that prieth in
at her windows shall also hearken at her doors.
Sir 14:24 He that doth
lodge near her house shall also fasten a pin in her walls.
Sir 14:25 He shall pitch
his tent nigh unto her, and shall lodge in a lodging where good things are.
Sir 14:26He shall set his children under her
shelter, and shall lodge
under her branches.
Sir 14:27By her he shall be covered from heat,
and in her glory shall he dwell.
(Protection from
2nd Death)
Sir 41:1 O death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee to
a man that liveth at rest in his possessions, unto the man that hath nothing to vex him, and that hath prosperity in all things:
yea, unto him that is yet able to receive meat! (After death)
Sir 41:2O death, acceptable is thy sentence unto
the needy, and unto him whose
strength faileth, that is now in the last age, and is vexed with all things, and to him that despaireth, and hath lost
patience!
Sir 41:3Fear not the sentence of death, remember them that have been before thee,
and that come after; for this is the sentence of the Lord over
all flesh. (A life cycle)
Sir 41:4 And why art thou against the pleasure of the
most High? there is no
inquisition in the grave, whether thou have lived ten, or an hundred,
or a thousand years. (Don’t question death)
Charity in this Life
Sir 28:1He that revengeth shall find vengeance
from the Lord, and he will
surely keep his sins in remembrance.
Sir 28:2Forgive thy neighbour the hurt that he
hath done unto thee, so shall
thy sins also be forgiven when thou prayest.
Sir 28:3One man beareth hatred against another,
and doth he seek pardon from the Lord?
Sir 28:4He sheweth no mercy to a man, which is
like himself: and doth he ask
forgiveness of his own sins?
Sir 28:5If he that is but flesh nourish hatred,
who will intreat for pardon of his
sins?
Sir 28:6Remember thy end, and let enmity cease;
remember corruption and death,
and abide in the commandments.
Sir 28:7Remember the commandments, and bear no malice to thy neighbour:
remember the covenant of the Highest,
and wink at ignorance. (some don’t know
they’ve offended you-no hate)
Sir 1:12The fear of the Lord maketh a merry
heart, and giveth joy, and gladness, and a long life.
Sir 1:13Whoso feareth the Lord, it shall go well
with him at the last, and he
shall find favour in the day of his death.
Sir 15:11Say not thou, It is through the Lord
that I fell away: for thou
oughtest not to do the things that he hateth.
Sir 15:12Say not thou, He hath caused me to err:
for he hath no need of the sinful man.
Sir 15:13The Lord hateth all abomination;
and they that fear God love it not.
Sir 15:14He himself made man from the beginning,
and left him in the hand of his
counsel;
Sir 15:15If thou wilt, to keep the commandments,
and to perform acceptable
faithfulness.
Sir 15:16He hath set fire and water before thee:
stretch forth thy hand unto whether
thou wilt.
Sir 15:17Before man is life and death;
and whether him liketh shall be given
him.
Sir 15:18 For the wisdom of the Lord is great,
and he is mighty in power,
and beholdeth all things:
Sir 15:19 And his eyes are upon them that fear him,
and he knoweth every work of man.
Sir 15:20He hath commanded no man to do wickedly,
neither hath he given any man licence
to sin.
Gen 3:22 And the LORD God
said, Behold, the man is become as
one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life,
and eat, and live for ever:
Gen 3:23Therefore the LORD God sent him forth
from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
Gen
3:19
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou
eat bread, till thou return
unto the ground; for out of
it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
W.O.S. 1:13 For God made not
death: neither hath he
pleasure in the destruction of the living.
Ecc 2:24 There is nothing better for a man, than that he
should eat and drink, and that he
should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it
was from the hand of God.
Ecc 11:7Truly the light
is sweet, and a pleasant
thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun: (Another opportunity to live)
W.O.S. 1:14 For he created all things, that they might have their being: and
the generations of the world were
healthful; and there is no
poison of destruction in them, nor
the kingdom of death upon the earth:
W.O.S. 1:15 (For righteousness is immortal:)
W.O.S. 1:16But ungodly men with their works and
words called it to them: for when they thought to have it their friend,
they consumed to nought, and made a covenant with it, because
they are worthy to take part with it.
Jer
8:3
And death shall be chosen rather than
life by all the residue of
them that remain of this evil family, which remain in all the places
whither I have driven them, saith the LORD of hosts.
W.O.S. 2:23 For God created man to be immortal,
and made him to be an image of his
own eternity.
W.O.S. 2:24 Nevertheless through envy of the devil came death
into the world: and they that do hold of his side do find it.
2 Esd 7:48 O thou Adam, what hast thou done? for though it was thou that sinned, thou art not fallen alone, but we all that come of thee.
2 Esd 7:49 For what profit is it unto us, if
there be promised us an immortal time,
whereas we have done the works that
bring death?
Sir 40:1Great travail is created for every man,
and an heavy yoke is upon the sons of
Adam, from the day that they
go out of their mother's womb, till
the day that they return to the mother of all things(earth).
Sir 40:2Their imagination of things to come,
and the day of death, trouble their thoughts, and cause fear of heart;
Sir 40:3 From him that sitteth on a throne of glory,
unto him that is humbled in earth and
ashes; (From
King to the servant)
Sir 40:4 From him that weareth purple and a crown,
unto him that is clothed with a linen
frock. (From
rich to the poor)
Sir 40:5 Wrath, and envy,
trouble, and unquietness, fear of death, and anger, and strife, and in the time
of rest upon his bed his night sleep, do change his knowledge.
Sir 40:6A little or nothing is his rest, and
afterward he is in his sleep, as in a day of keeping watch, troubled in the
vision of his heart, as if he
were escaped out of a battle.
Sir 40:7When all is safe, he awaketh, and
marvelleth that the fear was nothing.
Sir 40:8Such things happen unto all flesh,
both man and beast, and that is sevenfold more upon sinners.
Sickness
Sir 30:14Better is the poor, being sound and
strong of constitution, than
a rich man that is afflicted in his body.
Sir 30:15Health and good estate of body are above
all gold, and a strong body above
infinite wealth.
Sir 30:16There is no riches above a sound body,
and no joy above the joy of the heart.
Sir 30:17Death is better than a bitter life
or continual sickness.
Sir 39:16 All the works of the Lord are
exceeding good, and whatsoever he commandeth
shall be accomplished in due season.
Sir 39:18At his commandment is done whatsoever
pleaseth him; and none can
hinder, when he will save.
Sir 39:28There be spirits that are created for
vengeance, which in their
fury lay on sore strokes; in the
time of destruction they pour out their force, and appease the wrath of him that made them.
Sir 39:29 Fire, and hail,
and famine, and death, all these were created for vengeance;
Sir 39:30Teeth of wild beasts, and scorpions, serpents, and the sword punishing the wicked to
destruction.
1Co 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
1Co 15:25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his
feet.
1Co 15:26The last enemy that shall be destroyed
is death.
1Co 15:55O death, where is thy sting? O
grave, where is thy victory?
1Co 15:56The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
W.O.S. 1:3 For froward thoughts separate from God:
and his power, when it is tried, reproveth the unwise.
W.O.S. 3:1 But the souls of the righteous are in the
hand of God, and there shall
no torment touch them.
W.O.S. 3:2 In the sight of the unwise they seemed to
die: and their departure is
taken for misery,
W.O.S. 3:3 And their going from us to be utter destruction:
but they are in peace.
Sir14:17All flesh waxeth old as a garment:
for the covenant from the beginning
is, Thou shalt die the death.
Gen
3:19
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
Sir14:18 As of the green
leaves on a thick tree, some fall, and some grow; so is the generation of flesh
and blood, one cometh to an end, and another is born.
Ecc 9:2All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous,
and to the wicked(death);
to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and
to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that
sweareth, as he that feareth an oath.
Ecc 9:3This is an evil among all things that
are done under the sun, that
there is one event unto all(death): yea, also the heart of the sons of men is
full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead.
5 Steps to the Stages of Death
1)Denial &
Isolation(No, I don’t
believe it!)
2)Anger (Why Me?)
3)Bargaining(Lord if you let me
live, I’ll do so & so…) Pro
1:26
4)Depression (Realize you’re leaving all you love.)
5)Acceptance(At peace with the
inevitable-Ready to go)
Psa 68:20 He that is our
God is the God of salvation; and unto
GOD the Lord belong the issues from death.
1Sa
2:6The LORD killeth, and maketh alive:
he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up.
Pro 20:24Man's goings are of the LORD;
how can a man then understand his own way?
Jer 10:23 O LORD, I know
that the way of man is not in himself:
it is not in man that walketh to
direct his steps.
Sir 22:11Weep for the dead, for he hath lost the light: and weep
for the fool, for he wanteth understanding: make little weeping for the dead, for he is at rest: but the life of the
fool is worse than death. (Good to cry & grieve for loved ones)
Sir 22:12 Seven days do men mourn for him that is dead; but for
a fool and an ungodly man all the days of his life.
1Co 10:13There hath no temptation taken you but
such as is common to man: but God
is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able;
but will with the temptation also
make a way to escape, that ye
may be able to bear it.
Rom 9:16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. (You’re powerless
to death)
Sir
38:16My son, let tears
fall down over the dead,
and begin to lament, as if
thou hadst suffered great harm thyself; and then cover his body according to the custom, and neglect not his burial.
Luk 9:58 And Jesus said
unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his
head. (always
on a journey teaching the word)
Luk 9:59 And he said unto
another, Follow me. But he said, Lord,
suffer me first to go and bury my father.(men were making excuses not to do the work)
Luk 9:60 Jesus said unto
him, Let the dead bury their dead:
but go thou and preach the kingdom of
God.
Luk 9:61 And another also
said, Lord, I will follow thee; but
let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
Luk 9:62 And Jesus said
unto him, No man, having put his hand
to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
Gen 19:26 But his wife
looked back from behind him, and she
became a pillar of salt.
Sir
38:17Weep bitterly, and
make great moan, and use lamentation, as he is worthy, and that a day or two, lest thou be evil spoken of: and then
comfort thyself for thy heaviness. (Can’t be stone faced at funeral, but have an understanding
of death-don’t dwell)
Ecc 12:7 Then
shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto
God who gave it.
Sir 38:18For of heaviness cometh death,
and the heaviness of the heart
breaketh strength.
Sir 38:19 In affliction
also sorrow remaineth: and the life of the poor is the curse of the heart.
Sir 38:20Take no heaviness to heart: drive it away, and member the
last end.
Sir 38:21Forget it not, for there is no
turning again: thou shalt not do him
good, but hurt thyself.
Sir 38:22Remember my judgment: for thine
also shall be so; yesterday for me,
and to day for thee. (death cometh)
Sir 38:23When the dead is at rest, let his
remembrance rest; and be comforted for him, when his Spirit is departed from him.
Sir 22:12Seven days do men mourn for him that is
dead; but for a fool and an ungodly man all the days of his life.
Ecc 9:11 I returned, and
saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the
strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding,
nor yet favour to men of skill; but time
and chance happeneth to them all. (at life)
Job 7:1Is there not an appointed time to man
upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling? (death waiting for
all)
Job 7:2 As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow,
and as an hireling looketh for the
reward of his work:
Job 7:3 So am I made to possess months of vanity, and
wearisome nights are appointed to me.
Ecc 9:12 For man also knoweth not his time:
as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught
in the snare; so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them.
(death)
W.O.S. 15:8 And employing his labours lewdly, he
maketh a vain god of the same clay, even he which a little before was made of earth himself, and
within a little while after returneth
to the same, out when his
life which was lent him shall be demanded.
Sir 40:8Such things happen unto all flesh,
both man and beast, and that
is sevenfold more upon sinners.
Sir 40:9Death, and bloodshed, strife,
and sword, calamities, famine, tribulation, and the scourge;
Sir 40:10These things are created for the wicked,
and for their sakes came the flood.
Sir 40:11All things that are of the earth shall
turn to the earth again: and that which is of the waters doth return
into the sea.
Ecc 9:4 For to him that is joined to all the living
there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
Deu 10:12 And now, Israel,
what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to
walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all
thy heart and with all thy soul,
Deu 10:13 To keep the commandments
of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
Ecc 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter:
Fear God, and keep his commandments:
for this is the whole duty of man.
Sir 19:19 The knowledge of
the commandments of the Lord is the doctrine of life: and they that do things
that please him shall receive the fruit of the tree of immortality.
Ecc 12:14 For God shall
bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or
whether it be evil.
Mat 24:13 But he that shall
endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
1Th 4:13 But I would not
have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning
them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
1Th 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose
again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
1Th 4:15 For this we say
unto you by the word of the Lord, that
we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent
them which are asleep.
1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from
heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of
God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be
caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air:
and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1Th 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
1Co 15:51 Behold, I shew
you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead
shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1Co 15:53 For this corruptible must put on
incorruption, and this mortal
must put on immortality.
1Co 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on
incorruption, and this mortal
shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying
that is written, Death is swallowed
up in victory.
1Co 15:55O death, where is thy sting? O
grave, where is thy victory?
1Co 15:56The sting of
death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. (I’m Back BABY!!!)
Gen
4:7If thou doest well, shalt thou not be
accepted? and if thou doest
not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
Rom 6:23 For the wages of
sin is death; but the gift of
God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
1Co 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through
our Lord Jesus Christ.
1Co 15:58 Therefore, my beloved
brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable,
always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Luk
17:20
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come,
he answered them and said, The
kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
Luk
17:21
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
2 Esd 9:7 And every one that shall be saved,
and shall be able to escape by his
works, and by faith, whereby ye have believed,
2 Esd 9:8Shall be preserved from the said perils,
and shall see my salvation in my land,
and within my borders: for I have sanctified them for me from the
beginning.
2 Esd 9:9 Then shall they
be in pitiful case, which now have abused my ways: and they that have cast them
away despitefully shall dwell in torments.
2 Esd 9:10 For such as in their life have received
benefits, and have not known
me;
2 Esd 9:11 And they that have loathed my law, while they had yet liberty, and,
when as yet place of repentance was
open unto them, understood not, but despised it;
2 Esd 9:12The same must
know it after death by pain.
Rev 2:11 He that hath an
ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the
second death.
Rev 20:6Blessed and
holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the
second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him
a thousand years.
Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake
of fire. This is the second death.
Rev 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the
abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and
all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and
brimstone: which is the second death.

our God is the God of salvation; and unto
GOD the Lord belong the issues from death.
Sir 11:14 Prosperity
and adversity, life and death,
poverty and riches, come of the Lord.
2 Esd 3:7 And unto him thou gavestcommandment to love thy way:
which he transgressed, and immediately thou appointedst death in
him and in his generations, of whom came nations, tribes, people, and
kindreds, out of number.
Sir 41:3Fear not the sentence of death,
remember them that have been before thee, and that come after; for this is the sentence of the Lord over
all flesh.
Isa 26:3Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
whose mind is stayed on thee:
because he trusteth in thee.
Ecc 3:1To every thing there is a season,
and a time to every purpose
under the heaven:
Ecc 3:2A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant,
and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
Ecc 3:3 A time to
kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
Ecc 3:4A time to weep, and a time to
laugh; a time to mourn, and a
time to dance;
Sir 22:11Weep for the dead, for he hath lost the light: and weep
for the fool, for he wanteth understanding: make little weeping for the dead, for he is at rest: but the
life of the fool is worse than death.
Sir 22:12Seven days do men mourn for him that is
dead; but for a fool and an ungodly man all the days of his life.
Sir 38:16My son, let tears fall down over the
dead, and begin to lament, as if thou hadst suffered great harm thyself;
and then cover his body according to
the custom, and neglect not
his burial.
Sir 38:17Weep bitterly, and make great moan, and
use lamentation, as he is worthy, and that a day or two, lest thou be
evil spoken of: and then comfort
thyself for thy heaviness.
Sir 38:18 For of heaviness cometh death, and the heaviness of the heart breaketh
strength.

and the life of the poor is the curse of the heart.
Sir 38:20Take no heaviness to heart: drive it away, and member the
last end.
Sir 38:21 Forget it
not, for there is no turning again: thou
shalt not do him good, but hurt thyself.
Ecc 8:8There is no man that hath power over the
spirit to retain the spirit; neither
hath he power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in that
war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it.
Sir 14:12 Remember that
death will not be long in coming,
and that the covenant of the grave is
not shewed unto thee.
Sir 14:13Do good unto thy friend before thou die,
and according to thy ability stretch out thy hand and give to him.
Jhn
15:14
Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
Sir 14:14Defraud not thyself of the good day,
and let not the part of a good desire overpass thee.
Sir 14:15Shalt thou not leave thy travails unto
another? and thy labours to be divided by lot?
Sir 14:16Give, and take, and sanctify thy soul
(Enjoy Life); for there is no seeking
of dainties in the grave.
Sir 14:17All flesh waxeth old as a
garment: for the covenant from the
beginning is, Thou shalt die the death.

the sight of the LORD is the death of
his saints. (Died in righteousness)

man layeth it to heart: and merciful
men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.

you of a truth, there be some
standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

God.
Phl 4:7 And the peace of God, which passeth all
understanding, shall keep
your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
WOS 4:7 But though the righteous be prevented with death,
yet shall he be in rest.
WOS 4:8 For honourable age is not that which
standeth in length of time, nor
that is measured by number of years.
WOS 4:9 But wisdom is the gray hair unto men,
and an unspotted life is old age.
WOS 4:10 He pleased
God, and was beloved of him: so that living
among sinners he was translated. (Enoch)
WOS 4:11 Yea speedily
was he taken away, lest that wickedness should alter his understanding, or
deceit beguile his soul.
Jhn 8:51 Verily,
verily, I say unto you, If a man keep
my saying, he shall never see death.

Isa 25:1 O LORD, thou
art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done
wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.
Isa 25:2 For thou hast
made of a city an heap; of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be
no city; it shall never be built.
Isa 25:3 Therefore
shall the strong people glorify thee,
the city of the terrible nations
shall fear thee.
Isa 25:4 For thou hast
been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his
distress, a refuge from the storm, a
shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against
the wall.
Mat 5:3Blessed are the
poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Isa 25:5 Thou shalt
bring down the noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry place; even the heat
with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought
low.

mountain shall the LORD of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, a

will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people,
and the vail that is spread over all
nations. (The Lies of the world)

LORD hath spoken it.

be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the
LORD; we have waited for him, we will
be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
Rev 7:14 And I said
unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them
white in the blood of the Lamb.

they before the throne of God, and serve
him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell
among them.
Rev 7:16 They shall
hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them,
nor any heat.

throne shall feed them, and shall lead
them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
Rev 14:12 Here is the
patience of the saints: here are they
that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
2Ti 4:6 For I am now ready to be offered,
and the time of my departure is at
hand.
2Ti 4:7I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
2Ti 4:8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of
righteousness, which the Lord, the
righteous judge, shall give
me at that day: and not to me
only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
2Ti 4:9Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:
2Ti 4:5 But watch thou in all things, endure
afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
