People of the World where are you going? Turn back to God! Back to your faithful principles!
DAVID ANOINTED KING
David Anointed King. The LORD said to Samuel, “How long will you grieve for Saul, when I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and go; I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have chosen a king for Myself among his sons.”
RUTH’S LOVE’S STEADFAST CHOICE
Ruth’s Love’s Steadfast Choice. But Ruth said, “Do not urge me to leave you or to turn back from following you; for where you go, I will go, and where you lodge, I will lodge. Your people will be my people, and your God, my God.
MICAH AND THE LEVITE
Micah and the Levite. And Micah said to him, “Live here with me and be a father and a [personal] priest to me, and I will give you ten pieces of silver each year, a supply of clothing, and your sustenance (room and board).” So the Levite went in. The Levite agreed to live with the man, and the young man became to Micah like one of his sons.
THE GENERATIONS OF ESAU THE FATHER OF THE EDOMITES
Herod the Great WAS an Edomite descending from Esau. He killed a lot of babies when Jesus was born.
THE DEATH OF RACHEL AND ISAAC
And they journeyed from Bethel; and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labour.
And it came to pass, when she was in hard labour, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also.
And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died) that she called his name Benoni: but his father called him Benjamin.
And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem.
Never man spake like this man.
