Numbers 23:27-24:25
Numbers 23
Numbers 24
8 “God brings him out of Egypt;He has strength like a wild ox;He shall consume the nations, his enemies;He shall break their bonesAnd pierce them with his arrows.9 ‘He bows down, he lies down as a lion;And as a lion, who shall rouse him?’
“Blessed is he who blesses you,And cursed is he who curses you.”
17 “I see Him, but not now;I behold Him, but not near;A Star shall come out of Jacob;A Scepter shall rise out of Israel,And [i]batter the brow of Moab,And destroy all the sons of [j]tumult.
18 “And Edom shall be a possession;Seir also, his enemies, shall be a possession,While Israel does [k]valiantly.19 Out of Jacob One [l]shall have dominion,And destroy the remains of the city.”
Matthew 14:22-33
29 So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw [e]that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
31 And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.
33 Then those who were in the boat [f]came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God.”
2 Chronicles 19
11 And take notice: Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of the Lord; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, for all the king’s matters; also the Levites will be officials before you. Behave courageously, and the Lord will be with the good.”
2 Chronicles 20
14 Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, in the midst of the assembly. 15 And he said, “Listen, all you of Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you, King Jehoshaphat! Thus says the Lord to you: ‘Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s. 16 Tomorrow go down against them. They will surely come up by the Ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the [d]brook before the Wilderness of Jeruel. 17 You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem!’ Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord is with you.”
20 So they rose early in the morning and went out into the Wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Hear me, O Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem: Believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper.” 21 And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed those who should sing to the Lord, and who should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army and were saying:
“Praise the Lord,For His mercy endures forever.”
22 Now when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushes against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were defeated. 23 For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir to utterly kill and destroy them. And when they [e]had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.
24 So when Judah came to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked toward the multitude; and there were their dead bodies, fallen on the earth. No one had escaped.
Romans 10
11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
19 But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says:
“I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation,I will move you to anger by a foolish nation.”
20 But Isaiah is very bold and says:
“I was found by those who did not seek Me;I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me.”
Psalm 21
1 The king shall have joy in Your strength, O Lord;And in Your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice! 2 You have given him his heart’s desire,And have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah
3 For You meet him with the blessings of goodness;You set a crown of pure gold upon his head.4 He asked life from You, and You gave it to him—Length of days forever and ever.5 His glory is great in Your salvation;Honor and majesty You have placed upon him.6 For You have made him most blessed forever;You have made him [a]exceedingly glad with Your presence.7 For the king trusts in the Lord,And through the mercy of the Most High he shall not be [b]moved.
Proverbs 20
5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water,But a man of understanding will draw it out.
6 Most men will proclaim each his own [b]goodness,But who can find a faithful man?
