Recommended: Effect of faith through prayer

Deuteronomy, 31:8 is one of the best verses I have read in the Bible. It tells you that God is wherever you go and as long as you have a strong faith on him, he will never forget about you. It encourages us to have faith in God no matter what the circumstances are. Since the beginning of time people believe that having faith in God is an important role in someone’s life. I do have faith in God because of the experiences I have had that testify that he is real. When I read in the scriptures, when I go to pray, I have the most comforting feelings, it’s like a confirmation, that what I believe is real. I have even prayed, and had those prayers answered, sometimes right away, other times in his own time but answers nonetheless.

    God leads us through many battles, but without faith we would be lost. It gives us strength to live on, despite the wickedness of the world. Those that have outlived wars and their destruction will most likely have a noticeably strong connection with God. Juien’s grandfather was full of godly wisdom, as well as strong faith built up from past experiences. [grandfather quote]. God sometimes allows us to go through certain experiences so that they strengthen us and we can share them with others in the future. They provide strength for others and proof that good outcomes can come from bad situations. [‘God’s city won’t fall’ quote].

  • Analysis of Exodus 21-24

    514 Words  | 2 Pages

    Exodus 21-24 was definitely quite an instructive piece of literature. It was almost raw in its nature as a text or “book” but more of reading an excerpt from a piece of non-fiction most similar to an instruction manual of some sort that you get when you buy a dissembled bike or desk. Something like being enrolled in a police academy there was definite sense of a master-slave relationship in the air. It is like something never before seen in the Torah, these chapters showed a whole new YHWH. The YHWH who is feared like the school principal in an elementary school, not even mom and dad has come on so strong as to the dos and donts of living life. It seems as if YHWH was pushed to such a point where YHWH has no choice but intervene into the lives of his children, and set the rules for the pl...

  • Deuteronomy 28 Analysis

    124 Words  | 1 Pages

    Deuteronomy 28 is surrounded around blessings and curses. God’s promise in the blessings and curses is a conditional covenant. In verses 3-14 He establishes the idea that if you fully obey Him, they would be blessed, but if they don’t, then they would be cursed. “ You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country, the fruit of you womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks” (NIV, 28:3-4). Curses are the premise of the second half Deuteronomy 28. “ You will be cursed in the city and cursed in the country. Your basket and your kneading trough will be cursed”(NIV, 28:16-17).

  • Analysis of the Book of Deuteronomy

    1824 Words  | 4 Pages

    Many scriptures found in Deuteronomy along with several scriptures in the Old and New Testament point to Moses as being the author of Deuteronomy. One main verse that points to Moses as being the author of Deuteronomy is 31:9 which states, “9 Then Moses wrote this law and gave it to the priests, the sons of Levi, who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and to all the elders of Israel. The book of Deuteronomy never clearly states who the author is, but by all viewing all other scripture and the scripture found in the book of Deuteronomy Moses seems to be the only person that could have possibly written the book of Deuteronomy. Moses audiences in this book are the tribes of Israel. Many Jewish scholars who interpret the book of Deuteronomy believe that Moses audience were the elders of each tribe who delivered what Moses had spoke. The starting date of Deuteronomy is 1451 BC. Moses gives three speeches throughout this book, but there are five parts that make up the covenant renewal. The five parts of the covenant renewal that take place in Deuteronomy are the Preamble, Historical Prologue, Terms, Sanctions, and Ratifications. The Ten Commandments are given to people of Israel in the book of Deuteronomy. Deuteronomy is all about renewing the covenant between God and His people. God spoke to Moses and used Moses to speak to the people of Israel. The covenant renewal took place in the desert which was east of the Jordan River. Everything that took place in the book of Deuteronomy was in the Plains of Moab and in the crossing of the Jordan River to the Promise Land. The generation of Exodus was no more and Moses now led the new generation. In order for the people of Israel to enter into the Promis...

    At one point or another in one’s life you are faced with God, eye to eye and you know it. You can feel the Holy Spirit’s presence, like a humming sound that’s too low to hear, but it’s there and you can feel it, a feeling that you are not alone. For some, this feeling lasts for eternity, and for others God works within them again and again because the Lord’s love is persistent. The feeling I had came and went, for it was not strong enough as a child. But now, I am the strongest I have ever been.
