I’m very aware that for many people, there may be real pain tied to poor parenting, or even the absence of good, intentional parenting altogether, […] - [The Real Reason Jesus was Angry at Lazarus' Funeral](https://experiencehisword.com/the-real-reason-jesus-was-angry-at-lazarus-tomb/): When Jesus saw her weeping and saw the other people wailing with her, a deep anger welled up within Him, and He was deeply troubled. – John 11:33 NLT Maybe you’re like me and have found it a little strange that the Creator God of the universe would show up at a funeral (one He’s about to end) and be angry. I’ve asked a whole host of questions like these that had me puzzled for years. It’s unfortunate, but the NLT translation brings some distracting confusion to the emotions of God here. So let me redirect your attention in a […] - [Exposing the Prince of Rosh](https://experiencehisword.com/exposing-the-prince-of-rosh/): In order to understand Ezekiel 38, you must understand 2 things: 1) The time period in which Ezekiel is prophesying.2) Ezekiel 38 can’t be understood when it’s disconnected from Ezekiel 39 and 40. Ezekiel is prophesying during the Babylonian exile, specifically around 593–571 BC. So the first temple (Solomon’s Temple) was totally destroyed by the Babylonians, and the Israelites don’t know if there will ever be a 2nd temple. Ezekiel 38 Summary – Gog’s invasion of Israel, revealing God’s sovereignty in defeating pagan nations for His glory.Ezekiel 39 Summary – Gog’s total defeat, God’s judgment on the nations, and Israel’s […] - [5 Major Issues with the Council of Nicaea](https://experiencehisword.com/5-major-issues-with-the-council-of-nicaea/): For reference, see the full documentation of the Council of Nicaea in 325 A.D. Here is the summary of the council taken directly from dailycatholic.org: “Though the Council of Jerusalem (Acts 15 and Galatians 2) was the first Church Council, attended by the Apostles, the first Ecumenical (world-wide) Council was called by the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great with Pope Saint Sylvester I sitting on the Throne of Peter as the 33rd successor of Christ’s appointed Apostle. The site was the city of Nicaea, just south of Constantinople in Asia Minor. The greatest periti was the Bishop of Alexandria, Saint Athanasius who, amidst his struggles with the Arians, argued convincingly for […] - [Historical Context at the Time Each Book was Written](https://experiencehisword.com/historical-context-for-each-book-of-the-old-testament/) - [How Many Generations Span Across History?](https://experiencehisword.com/how-many-generations-are-there-throughout-history/): The biblical genealogical record, contained in Luke 3:23-38, calculates a single generation from father to son and thus provides the exact number of generations that span from the beginning of time to Jesus’ public ministry. Since there is no biblical genealogical record from the time of Jesus to our modern day, we must identify a single generation by modern calculations. Therefore, according to modern calculations, every 25 years is a new generation. So now let’s take these two totals and add them up: Because Noah was born 10 generations from Adam, at the very least, Noah is everyone’s 147th great-grandfather!

And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. ​The world was nothing and then became something. However, Jesus is everything and then became nothing. ​Philippians 2:7 NIV – rather, He made Himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. Jesus, just a few cells big in Mary’s womb, resembled the earth as He was formless, yet unlike the earth He was not void. The fullness ofGod dwells at the molecular level in the Son! ​Colossians 1:19 – For in Him all […] - [Top of a Mast](https://experiencehisword.com/top-of-a-mast/): Proverbs 23:29 – Who has wounds without cause? Who has redness of eyes? ​Who is without fault and has no cause for His lashing? Who loses sleep to stay awake all night to pray in Gethsemane? ​Proverbs 23:30 – Those who tarry long over wine; those who go to try mixed wine. ​Psalm 75:8 – For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup with foaming wine, well mixed, and He pours out from it, and all the wicked of the earth shall drain it down to the dregs. ​Behold what happens to the Man who consumes the wine of God’s […] - [Double Portion](https://experiencehisword.com/double-portion/): Matthew 10:40 – “Whoever receives you receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me.” ​If you receive the Son of God, you receive the Father as well. Jesus is our legitimate double portion and multiplied inheritance. And so it is when you accept the whole Person of Jesus, you receive the fullness of God. ​Colossians 2:9 – For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. ​Think about the disciples relaxing and enjoying Jesus around the campfire at night in Galilee. In front of them is the entirety and completeness of Yahweh. There’s no need to look elsewhere; Jesus is the absolute totality of […] - [Lamp of the Body](https://experiencehisword.com/lamp-of-the-body/): Matthew 6:22 – “The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light.” ​Watch what unfolds when Jesus becomes the centerpiece of Matthew 6:22. ​Revelation 1:14 – The hairs of His head were white, like white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire (torch or lamp). ​Jesus’ eye is the lamp of the body. Since the fire in His eyes is an extremely healthy, single-focused fiery desire for us, the entire body of Christ is currently brimming over with light. ​Revelation 19:12 – His eyes are like blazing fire, and on His head are […] - [Settle Accounts](https://experiencehisword.com/settle-accounts/): Luke 12:58 – “As you go with your accuser before the magistrate, make an effort to settle with him on the way, lest he drag you to the judge, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer put you in prison. 59 I tell you, you will never get out until you have paid the very last penny.” ​Jesus went with His accusers and did not make an effort to settle accounts with them. Instead, He remained silent before Pilate, His ‘judge’, who handed Him over to the officers, upholders, and keepers of the law, who then imprisoned Him in a guarded tomb […] - [It's a Ghost](https://experiencehisword.com/its-a-ghost/): Matthew 14:26 – But when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, “It is a ghost!” and they cried out in fear. ​The disciples thought Jesus was a spirit hovering over the face of the waters. ​Genesis 1:2 – The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. ​If you’ve seen Jesus, you’ve thoroughly seen the completeness of who the Holy Spirit is. ​In the same real way, if you have seen Jesus you […] - [Jesus > Paul](https://experiencehisword.com/jesus-paul/): Acts 23:2 – And the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to strike him on the mouth. 3 Then Paul said to him, “God is going to strike you, you whitewashed wall!” ​Paul is being accused and condemned before the council, they strike him in the face, and he curses them. ​Mark 14:64 – You have heard His blasphemy. What is your decision?” And they all condemned Him as deserving death. 65 And some began to spit on Him and to cover His face and to strike Him, saying to Him, “Prophesy!” And the guards received Him with blows. ​Jesus is being accused and condemned before […] - [Jesus > Noah](https://experiencehisword.com/jesus-noah/): Genesis 6:14 – Make yourself an ark of gopher wood. ​Noah, the carpenter, worked with wood to offer salvation to himself, his family, and his neighbors. ​Jesus, the Carpenter, worked with wood to offer salvation to the entire earth. ​Salvation comes through a Man utilizing wood and working with His hands. During the flood, Noah and his family are on a wooden ark safe and sound while the world perishes. ​Hebrews 11:7 – By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to […] - [Governing Authorities](https://experiencehisword.com/governing-authorities/): Romans 13:1 – Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. ​Let every man, including the Man Christ Jesus, be subject to the governing authorities. ​John 19:10 – So Pilate said to Him, “You will not speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You and authority to crucify You?” ​Jesus, the highest ranking King in existence, is so extremely humble that He allows a local governor in Jerusalem to rule over Him. ​John 19:11 – Jesus answered him, “You would have no authority over Me at […] - [Nowhere to Lay](https://experiencehisword.com/nowhere-to-lay/): Luke 9:58 – And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” Jesus, and those with Him (the disciples), have no place to lay Their heads. ​Luke 2:7 – And she gave birth to her firstborn Son and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths and laid Him in a manger, because there was no place for Them in the inn. ​Jesus, and those with Him (Mary and Joseph), have no place to lay Their heads. - [Banner Over Me](https://experiencehisword.com/banner-over-me/): Song of Solomon 2:4 – He brought me to the banqueting house, and His banner over me was love. ​The banner over Jesus’ Bride, that is used to distinguish her, is His thrilled and consistently satisfied affectionate delight toward her. ​The banner over Jesus, that was used to help distinguish Him, because He was mutilated to the point that He was unrecognizable, was the people’s accusation and condemnation toward Him. ​Luke 23:38 – There was also an inscription over Him, “This is the King of the Jews.” ​Matthew 27:37 – And over His head they put the charge against Him, which read, “This […] - [Enemy Gate](https://experiencehisword.com/enemy-gate/): Genesis 22:17 – I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your Offspring as the stars of heaven and as the sand that is on the seashore. And your Offspring shall possess the gate of His enemies. ​Galatians 3:16 – Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his Offspring. It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to One, “And to your Offspring,” who is Christ. ​Revelation 1:18 – I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and hades. ​Jesus, The Offspring of Abraham, is […] - [Pearls Before Pigs](https://experiencehisword.com/pearls-before-pigs/): Matthew 7:6 – Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you. ​Jesus is the holy Pearl of Great Price handed over to the dogs and thrown before pigs. They trampled, mistreated, insulted, ridiculed and attacked Him. ​Philippians 3:2 – Look out for the dogs, look out for the evildoers, look out for those who mutilate the flesh. Here’s the definition of mutilate: inflict a violent and disfiguring injury on. ​Mark 15:25 – It was nine in the morning when they crucified Him. ​Psalm 22:16 – For dogs encompass Me; a company of evildoers […] - [Nails to Keys](https://experiencehisword.com/nails-to-keys/): John 19:18 – There they crucified Him, and with Him two others, one on either side, and Jesus between them. ​Jesus had two metal nails in His hands when He was being crushed by death. ​Revelation 1:18 – I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and hades. ​After dealing with the issue of sin, Jesus has two metal keys in His hands; one for death and one for hades. - [Hardened Hearts](https://experiencehisword.com/hardened-hearts/): Exodus 10:20 – But the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the people of Israel go. Who was it that hardened pharaoh’s heart? The Lord. ​Matthew 9:3 – And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This Man is blaspheming.” 4 But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?” Who was it that hardened the scribes’ hearts? Jesus. ​In pharaoh’s mind he was a god, so when the True God revealed Himself as more powerful, he became deeply offended. Therefore, because Pure Love and Power was active and present in their midst, Pharaoh’s heart was hardened by the Lord the same exact way that Jesus hardened the scribes’ and pharisees’ hearts. Matthew 11:6 – […] - [Strangers](https://experiencehisword.com/strangers/): Hebrews 13:2 – Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. ​In other words, take good loving care of strangers, foreigners, outcasts, and aliens of the world, for by doing so we will have hosted angels in our midst without realizing it. ​Mark 15:41 – In Galilee these women had followed Him and cared for His needs. Many other women who had come up with Him to Jerusalem were also there. Imagine how many angels these women hosted in their presence by tending to Jesus, the Stranger of the World. ​Psalm 69:8 – […] - [No Eye Has Seen](https://experiencehisword.com/no-eye-has-seen/): 1 Corinthians 2:7 – But we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God predestined before the ages to our glory. ​Jesus is the unexpected Hidden Mystery prophesied before the ages to our glory. ​Colossians 2:2 – and attaining to all the wealth that comes from the full assurance of understanding, resulting in a true knowledge of God’s Mystery, that is, Christ Himself. 1 Corinthians 2:8 – the wisdom which none of the rulers of this age has understood; for if they had understood it they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. ​1 Corinthians 2:9 – but just as it […] - [Omnipresent](https://experiencehisword.com/omnipresent/): John 1:47 – Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him and said of him, “Behold, an Israelite in whom there is no deceit!” 48 Nathanael said to Him, “How do You know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” ​This is the very first time Jesus and Nathanael are meeting face to face, and even though Jesus wasn’t physically with Nathanael under the fig tree, He was still always with him. ​This means that Jesus exists in bodily form in one location and yet is still present in all other […] - [From the Ground](https://experiencehisword.com/from-the-ground/): Genesis 2:2 – And on the seventh day God finished His work that He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work that He had done. 3 So God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all His work that He had done in creation. Genesis 2:4, Genesis 2:5, Genesis 2:6 Genesis 2:7 – Then the LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature. The work was finished, He rested, and then a Jewish man named Adam […] - [The Potter](https://experiencehisword.com/the-potter/): Romans 9:21 – Has the Potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for dishonorable use? ​Jesus, the Potter, became like the clay He created and was treated worse than a vessel prepared for dishonorable use. ​Psalm 31:12 – I have been forgotten like one who is dead; I have become like a broken vessel. - [Two Copper Coins](https://experiencehisword.com/two-copper-coins/): Luke 21:1 – Jesus looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the offering box, 2 and He saw a poor widow put in two small copper coins. ​The woman who was experiencing the pain of death, had two metal coins in her hands when she gave everything. ​Mark 15:25 – And it was the third hour when they crucified Him. ​The Man who was experiencing the pain of death, had two metal nails in His hands when He gave everything.

How beautiful God’s fury that passed over us and devastated the Son instead. ​Hebrews 12:29 – for Our God is a consuming fire. Jesus is our Burnt Offering. - [Harmful Spirit](https://experiencehisword.com/harmful-spirit/): 1 Samuel 18:10 – The next day a harmful spirit from God rushed upon Saul, and he raved within his house while David was playing the lyre, as he did day by day. Saul had his spear in his hand. 11 And Saul hurled the spear, for he thought, “I will pin David to the wall.” But David evaded him twice. ​There’s a huge difference between being from God and being of God. All evil spirits, at one point or another, are required to come and experience the pain of bowing before Jesus and then departing from Him. ​Job 2:7 – So satan went out from the presence of the Lord and struck Job with loathsome sores from […] - [The Mystery of the Dinosaurs](https://experiencehisword.com/extinction/): Unlock the Prehistoric Mystery - [Dominion](https://experiencehisword.com/dominion/): Genesis 1:28 – And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” ​The words ‘subdue’ and ‘dominion’ both mean: to rule, dominate, bring into bondage, and have authority over. ​Matthew 27:2 – And they bound Him and led Him away and delivered Him over to Pilate the governor. ​Jesus was treated like an animal that creeps on the earth; one in which men have dominion over. ​Proverbs 26:3 – A whip […] - [The Heavens Declare](https://experiencehisword.com/the-heavens-declare/): Psalm 19:1 – The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims His handiwork.

It was about the sixth hour. 7 A woman from Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.” 8 (For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.) ​Jesus was exhausted, as from heavy labor, thirsty, and His closest friends had left Him when it was about twelve in the afternoon. ​Mark 15:33 – And when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken […] - [Bible Dates Calendar](https://experiencehisword.com/bible-dates-calendar-for-apple-users-only/): *for Apple users only* Click this link (while on your iOS device) to automatically add every verse in the NLT translation that has a date in the verse.

Why should the work stop while I leave it and come down to you? 4 And they sent to me four times in this way, and I answered them in the same manner. ​Nehemiah, the wine-tasting prophet for king Artaxerxes, was asked four times to come down and leave his great work unfinished.
