Day 50 of My 6th Bible Study Journey - 19 February 2026 reflections Part 4

4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland



Luke 16:10-12



10 (Mt 25:21; Lk 19:17) "He who is faithful in what is least is faithful

also in much. And he who is dishonest in the least is dishonest also

in much.

11 So if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous wealth,

who will commit to your trust the true riches?

12 And if you have not been faithful in that which is another man's,

who will give you that which is your own?"



10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much:

and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon,

who will commit to your trust the true riches?

12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's,

who shall give you that which is your own?



5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:



God's Reconciling Peace



Col 3:12-17



12 (Eph 4:2; Lk 1:78) So embrace, as the elect of God, holy and beloved,

a spirit of mercy, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, and longsuffering.

13 (Eph 4:32; Mk 11:25; Eph 4:2) Bear with one another

and forgive one another. If anyone has a quarrel against anyone,

even as Christ forgave you, so you must do.

14 (Eph 4:3; 1Co 13:1-13) And above all these things, embrace love,

which is the bond of perfection.

15 (Jn 14:27; Eph 5:20) Let the peace of God,

to which also you are called in one body,

rule in your hearts. And be thankful.

16 (Eph 5:19; Col 1:28; Ro 10:17 ) Let the word of Christ dwell

in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing

one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,

singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

17 (1Co 10:31; Eph 5:20 ) And whatever you do in word or deed,

do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,

giving thanks to God the Father through Him.



12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies,

kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

13 forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have

a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.

14 And above all these things put on charity,

which is the bond of perfectness.

15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye

are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom;

teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,

singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,

giving thanks to God and the Father by him.



Remember God's promises when You pray



The Lord's prayer



Matthew 6:9-13



9 "Therefore pray in this manner:

Our Father who is in heaven,

hallowed be Your name.

10 (Mt 3:2; 4:17) Your kingdom come;

Your will be done

on earth, as it is in heaven.

11 (Pr 30:8; Isa 33:16) Give us this day our daily bread.

12 (Ex 34:7; Ps 32:1) And forgive us our debts,

as we forgive our debtors.

13 (1Co 10:13; Jn 17:15) And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen."





6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)



Alberta



Quick facts on Muslims in Alberta



Alberta 2015 population 4121700



est Muslim Population 195240



CNMM Networks: Calgary and Edmonton



It is estimated that Calgary has 82000 Muslims and Edmonton another 50000 .

Alberta may have a total as high as 195240 today.

Calgary is notable as the first Canadian city with a Muslim mayor. It's

become a prominent place of Islamic fundamentalism.

Edmonton's Muslim population is very diverse, with the largest group

coming from Tanzania, followed by Somalia, and then North African countries

such as Egypt, Morocco, etc.

Muslims are coming to faith in Jesus! They overcome huge spiritual,

emotional and cultural hurdles to follow Christ. Yet their challenges still

continue, especially in growing in discipleship. They often fell lost in our

Western congregations, and equally lost trying to find a church body with whom

they can identify. some are even being lured into Christian cult groups.



Please join us in praying for:

- The church to reach out to the growing Muslim populations in Alberta.

- for Canadian churches to start contextualised discipleship ministries to

Muslim-background believers.

- for Muslm-background believers to be well grounded spiritually and socially

in their faith and the Church.

- and for Muslim-background believers to share their faith with their

not-yet-believing family and friendship networks.

- for Farsi and Arabic fellowships to grow in spiritual maturity and outreach.

- for current and new workers among Muslims in these growing Muslim

in these growing Muslim population centres.

Pray for Afrini Kurds




Paul, like many Kurds from Afrin, fled war and became a refugee in a nearby

country. His life was defined by pride, brokenness and violence. One by one,

the women in his family came to faith in Christ, but despite their prayers and

witnessing inexplicable miracles, Paul's heart remained hard. Then, in a

vision one night, he was faced with the fearful power and tender love

of Christ.



Paul repented; saved and forever changed to be used among his people.

Previously he carried knives, but now Paul carries audio Bibles with him

wherever he goes, insisting that neither his nor any other Kurd's illiteracy

be a barrier to hearing God's Word.



In an effort to reach the whole diaspora of his people, Paul runs several

popular social media accounts in the Afrini Kurdish language. He posts videos

about the gospel, stories of Christ, and other heart-changing scriptures. His

family hosts a house-church and tries to encourage other Afrini believers like

Raban, a young and lonely disciple who lives about 90 minutes away.



One day, a man named Barzan found Paul's Facebook page and messaged him:



"I'm disenchanted with Islam and have questions about the Bible.

Do you know any Christians who can visit me?"



Paul eagerly responded, "Where do you live?"



See also Pray for the Shabaks of Iraq




Of all the places in the world where Afrini Kurds are found, Barzan lived only

a few blocks from Raban! Paul met with Raban and that very day led Barzan to

faith. Three years later, many families in Raban and Barzan's neighborhood

also follow Christ and together have their own house-church. They share over

the phone with relatives west in Europe and east in their home country,

where dozens are longing to be discipled.



How to Pray

Pray for the audio Bible to be made available in the Afrini dialect.



Ask that Afrin’s infrastructure would be repaired; many believers are eager

to return and see churches planted among Afrin's 366 villages.



Ask God to quickly mature existing believers to shepherd the multitudes

coming to faith.



My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further

call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity

(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, ...) .

Day 50 of My 6th Bible Study Journey - 19 February 2026 reflections Part 3 (Leviticus 21 KJV)

Leviticus 21

[1] And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto the priests the sons of Aaron,

and say unto them, There shall none be defiled for the dead among his

people:

[2] But for his kin, that is near unto him, that is, for his mother, and for

his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother,

[3] And for his sister a virgin, that is nigh unto him, which hath had no

husband; for her may he be defiled.

[4] But he shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to

profane himself.

[5] They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave

off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.

[6] They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their

God: for the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and the bread of their God,

they do offer: therefore they shall be holy.

[7] They shall not take a wife that is a whore, or profane; neither shall

they take a woman put away from her husband: for he is holy unto his God.

[8] Thou shalt sanctify him therefore; for he offereth the bread of thy God:

he shall be holy unto thee: for I the LORD, which sanctify you, am holy.

[9] And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the

whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.

[10] And he that is the high priest among his brethren, upon whose head the

anointing oil was poured, and that is consecrated to put on the garments,

shall not uncover his head, nor rend his clothes;

[11] Neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his

father, or for his mother;

[12] Neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of

his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him: I am the

LORD.

[13] And he shall take a wife in her virginity.

[14] A widow, or a divorced woman, or profane, or an harlot, these shall he

not take: but he shall take a virgin of his own people to wife.

[15] Neither shall he profane his seed among his people: for I the LORD do

sanctify him.

[16] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[17] Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever he be of thy seed in their

generations that hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread

of his God.

[18] For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a

blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous,

[19] Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded,

[20] Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be

scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken;

[21] No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come

nigh to offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire: he hath a blemish; he

shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God.

[22] He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the

holy.

[23] Only he shall not go in unto the vail, nor come nigh unto the altar,

because he hath a blemish; that he profane not my sanctuaries: for I the

LORD do sanctify them.

[24] And Moses told it unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the

children of Israel.

Finding Love in God
by Tom Felten



Leviticus 25:35-43



Helping the Poor



35 (Dt 15:7-8; Ps 37:26) If your brother becomes poor

and cannot maintain himself with you,

then you shall support him as if he were a foreigner or a sojourner,

so that he may live with you.

36 (Ex 22:25; Dt 23:19-20) Take no usury or interest from him;

but fear your God, so that your brother may live with you.

37 You shall not lend him your money at interest,

nor lend him your food for profit.

38 (Lev 11:45; 22:32-33) I am the Lord your God,

who brought you out of the land of Egypt,

to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God.



[35] And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then

thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that

he may live with thee.

[36] Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy

brother may live with thee.

[37] Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals

for increase.

[38] I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of

Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.



The Law About Slavery



39 (Ex 21:2; 1Ki 9:22; Lev 25:46) If your brother who dwells near you

becomes poor and sells himself to you, you shall not compel him to serve

as a bondservant.

40 But as a hired servant and as a sojourner he shall be with you.

He shall serve you until the Year of Jubilee.

41 (Lev 25:28; Ex 21:3) And then he shall depart from you,

both he and his children with him,

and he shall return to his own family

and to the possession of his fathers.

42 (Lev 25:55; Ro 6:22) For they are My servants,

whom I brought out of the land of Egypt.

They shall not be sold as slaves.

43 (Col 4:1; Ex 1:13-14) You shall not rule over him with harshness,

but you shall fear your God.



[39] And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor, and be sold

unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:

[40] But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with thee, and

shall serve thee unto the year of jubile:

[41] And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children with him,

and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers

shall he return.

[42] For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of

Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.

[43] Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God.



Todd invited his younger brother Alex, a recent college graduate, to come live

with him in the house he'd built. He wanted to help his sibling gain some

financial footing by allowing him to live rent-free for a while. After six

months, Todd asked Alex to begin paying rent. Years later, Alex made an offer

on his own home. When the offer was accepted, Todd surprised him by telling

him that he'd deposited Alex's rent payments in a savings account over the

years and that the substantial sum of money was now his! Alex wept as he

received the lavish gift.



In Leviticus 25, God gave Moses commands for the Israelites that included

allowing those in need "to live with you" (v. 35 nlt). This command was part

of God enacting "a jubilee year" (v. 10 nlt) - when debts were forgiven, those

in poverty were helped, and the enslaved were freed (vv. 23-55). He declared

that He'd lovingly led His people "out of Egypt to give [them] the land of

Canaan and to be [their] God" (v. 38). He'd provided a new homeland,

and now they were to imitate Him by showing love and opening their homes

to others.



The apostle John would later write, "See what great love the Father has

lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!" (1 John 3:1).

By Jesus' sacrifice we can receive the fullness of that lavish love (v. 16).

And as He helps us, we can lavish it on others.



Reflect & Pray



How have you experienced God's lavish love? How can you extend it to others?



Loving God, please help me pour out Your amazing, lavish love on others.





God's very nature is love.

Week 7 Promises of Grace - Day 5 The Way Out



1 Cor 10:13



13 (1Co 1:9; 2Pe 2:9) No temptation has taken

you except what is common to man. God is faithful,

and He will not permit you to be tempted above

what you can endure, but will with the temptation

also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it.



13 There 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.



Becky had experienced some hard knocks in the past few weeks; the stress

was beginning to show, and she wasn't sure she should handle anything else.

"Why me?" Becky wept, covering her face. "I just can't stand it any more!

I can't pay my bills; I just lost my job, and now my car broke down

on the highway. How much more of this can I take?"

Some people seem to have more than their share of trouble and temptation.

Within six months, one family faced financial trouble, cancer, quadruple

bypass surgery, and leukemia; their trials brought them face to face with

anger, bitterness, and despair as well. Other people seem to go through

life with relatively minor stresses and few real temptations to sin.

But whether our problems are great or small, they are part of the common

thread that ties humanity together. All of us face temptation; it is ,

Paul says, "Common to man." But Paul assures us that

"God ... will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear."

Often what we can bear is more that what we think we can bear. God will use

the troubled times in our lives for our maturity in him, but he promises

as well that he will not let temptation break us. He will provide "a way out,"

"a way of escape".

Sometimes the "way out" is true escape, being removed from what caused the

trouble. At other times, rather than being removed from it, we must

withstand the stress, face the temptation, enure the pain. Whether we escape

or endure, God is faithful to provide what we need; we can trust him

not to give us more than we can bear.



Application



a) Have I ever faced more stress or temptation than I thought I could bear?



b) Under what circumstances has God provided an "escape" for me?

When have I had to walk "through" my difficulties?



c) How can today's verse encourage me when times are tough?

Leviticus 20



Penalties for Violating the Law

Whoever from the children of Israel or from the foreigners who sojourn

in Israel who gives any of his children to Molek,

he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him.

3 (Lev 18:21; 17:10) I will set My face against that man

and will cut him off from among his people,

because he has given some of his descendants to Molek to defile

My sanctuary and to defile My holy name.

4(Dt 17:2-5) If the people of the land in any way hide their eyes

from the man when he gives of his children to Molek and do not put

him to death,

5 then I will set My face against that man and against his family;

and I will cut them off from their people, both him

and those who follow after him as whores after Molek.

6 (Lev 19:31; 20:27; Isa 8:19) The person who turns to spirits

through mediums and necromancers in order to whore after them,

of their people. He has exposed his sister's nakedness,

and he shall bear his iniquity.

18 (Lev 15:24; 18:19) If a man lies with a woman during her menstrual

period and exposes her nakedness, her fountain of blood is then exposed.

Both of them shall be cut off from among their people.

19 (Lev 18:6) You shall not have relations

with your mother's sister or your father's sister, for this is to expose

the nakedness of one's relative. They shall bear their iniquity.

he has exposed his uncle's nakedness.

They shall bear their sin. They shall die childless.

21 (Lev 18:16) If a man lies with his brother's wife,

it is impurity. He has exposed his brother's nakedness.

They shall be childless.

and all My decrees and do them, so that the land to where

I am bringing you will not vomit you out.

23 (Lev 18:3; 18:24) You shall not walk in the customs of the nation

that I am driving out before you, for they committed all these things,

and therefore I abhorred them.

24 (Ex 33:16; 3:8) But I have said to you: You shall inherit their land,

and I will give it to you to possess it, a land that

flows with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, who has separated you

from other peoples.

25 (Lev 11:1-47; Dt 14:3-21) You shall therefore make distinction

to spirits as a medium or necromancer shall surely be put to death.

They shall stone them. Their blood guilt shall be upon them.



Leviticus 20

[1] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[2] Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the

children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth

any of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of

the land shall stone him with stones.

[3] And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among

his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my

sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.

[4] And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man,

when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and kill him not:

[5] Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and

will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom

with Molech, from among their people.

[6] And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after

wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that

soul, and will cut him off from among his people.

[7] Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God.

[8] And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the LORD which sanctify

you.

[9] For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put

to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon

him.

[10] And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he

that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the

adulteress shall surely be put to death.

[11] And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his

father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood

shall be upon them.

[12] And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be

put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them.

[13] If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them

have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their

blood shall be upon them.

[14] And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall

be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.

[15] And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye

shall slay the beast.

[16] And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou

shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death;

their blood shall be upon them.

[17] And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his

mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it is a

wicked thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he

hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.

[18] And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall

uncover her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath

uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from

among their people.

[19] And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of

thy father's sister: for he uncovereth his near kin: they shall bear their

iniquity.

[20] And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he hath uncovered his

uncle's nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.

[21] And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is an unclean thing: he

hath uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.

[22] Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do

them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.

[23] And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out

before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred

them.

[24] But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give

it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I am the

LORD your God, which have separated you from other people.

[25] Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and

between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable

by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the

ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.

[26] And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the LORD am holy, and have severed

you from other people, that ye should be mine.

[27] A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard,

shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood

shall be upon them.



Leviticus 21



Rules for Priestly Conduct



1 (Eze 44:25; Lev 10:6-7) Then the Lord said to Moses: Speak to the priests,

the sons of Aaron, and say to them: None shall make himself unclean

for the dead among his people,

2 but for his closest relatives, that is, for his mother, his father,

his son, his daughter, his brother,

3 and his virgin sister (who is near him because she has not had a husband),

for her he may be made unclean.

4 And he shall not make himself unclean as a husband among his people

because of the dead and so defile himself.

5 (Dt 14:1; Eze 44:20; Lev 19:27-28) They shall not make bald areas

on their heads, nor shall they shave off the edges of their beards,

nor make any cuts in their flesh.

6 (Lev 3:11; 18:21) They shall be holy unto their God,

and not profane the name of their God;

for they offer the offerings of the Lord made by fire,

and the food of their God. Therefore they shall be holy.

7 (Lev 21:13-14; Eze 44:22) They shall not take a wife

who is a whore or has been defiled, nor shall they take

a woman divorced from her husband, for he is holy unto his God.

8 (Lev 21:6) You shall sanctify him, for he offers the food

of your God. He shall be holy to you, for I the Lord,

who sanctifies you, am holy.

9 (Ge 38:24) The daughter of any priest,

if she defiles herself by being a whore, she also defiles her father.

She shall be burned with fire.

10 (Lev 10:6-7; 16:32) He who is the high priest among his brothers,

on whose head the anointing oil was poured

and who is consecrated to wear the garments,

shall not dishevel his hair, nor tear his clothes;

11 (Nu 19:14; Lev 19:28; 21:1-2) nor shall he approach any dead body,

nor make himself unclean, even for his father or his mother;

12 (Lev 10:7; Ex 29:6-7) nor shall he go out of the sanctuary,

so as not to defile the sanctuary of his God,

for the consecration of the anointing oil of his God is upon him:

I am the Lord.

13 (Lev 21:7; Eze 44:22) He shall take a wife in her virginity.

14 (Lev 21:7_ A widow, or a divorced woman, or a defiled woman,

or a prostitute, these he shall not marry. But he shall take

for a wife a virgin of his own people,

15 so that he does not defile his offspring among his people,

for I am the Lord who sanctifies him.

16 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

17 (Lev 10:3; Nu 16:5) Speak to Aaron, saying:

None of your offspring in their generations

who has any blemish may approach to offer the food of his God.

18 (Lev 22:19-25) For whoever has a blemish, he shall not approach,

whether a blind or lame man, or one who has a physical flaw

on his face or a limb that is too long,

19 or a man who has a broken foot or broken hand,

20 (Dt 23:1) or a hunchback, or a dwarf, or who has a defect in his eye,

or eczema or scabs, or is a eunuch.

21 (Lev 21:6) No man who has a blemish from the offspring of Aaron

the priest shall come near to offer the food offerings of the Lord

made by fire. He has a blemish; he shall not come near to offer

the bread of his God.

22 (Lev 2:3; 2:10) He shall eat the food of his God,

both of the most holy and of the holy.

23 (Lev 21:12) Only he shall not go in through the veil

or come to the altar, because he has a blemish, so that

he does not defile My sanctuaries, for I am the Lord who sanctifies them.

24 Moses spoke this to Aaron, and to his sons,

and to all the children of Israel.

2) Our Daily Bread for 18 February 2025 titled

Divine Restoration



Joel 2:21-27



Rescue and Restitution



21 (Isa 54:4; Zep 3:16-17) Do not be afraid, land;

exult and rejoice,

for the Lord has done great things!

22 (Ps 65:12; Joel 1:18-20) Do not be afraid, beasts of the field,

because the wild pastures flourish,

because the tree bears its fruit;

the fig tree and the vine yield their abundance.

23 (Zec 10:7; Lev 26:4) And children of Zion, exult

and rejoice in the Lord your God,

because He has given to you

the early rain for vindication.

He showers down rains for you,

the early rain and the latter rain, as before.

24 (Lev 26:10; Am 9:13) Then the threshing floors will be filled with grain,

and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.

25 (Joel 1:4-7; 2:2-11) And I will compensate you for the years the locusts

have eaten-the larval locust, the hopper locust,

and the fledging locust-

My great army which I sent against you.

26 (Lev 26:5; Isa 25:1) You will eat abundantly and be satisfied,

and you will praise the name of the Lord your God,

who has worked wonders for you;

and My people will never again be shamed.

27 (Joel 3:17; Lev 26:11-12) Then you will know that I am in the midst

of Israel, that I am the Lord your God,

and that there is no other.

And My people will never again be shamed.



[21] Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do great

things.

[22] Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field: for the pastures of the

wilderness do spring, for the tree beareth her fruit, the fig tree and the

vine do yield their strength.

[23] Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God:

for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come

down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first

month.

[24] And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fats shall overflow with

wine and oil.

[25] And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the

cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I

sent among you.

[26] And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of

the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall

never be ashamed.

[27] And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the

LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed.



My heart sank. My mind started to swirl. A friend who'd been helping set up my

new laptop accidentally deleted all the photos and videos I'd transferred to

it. Years of precious memories with family and friends were all gone in an

instant. Panic set in. I'd never be able to recreate those cherished moments

from past holidays, travels, and special occasions. Before sentimental me

could have a complete meltdown, my friend said he was hopeful he could recover

my files. Thankfully, a few agonising hours later I was overjoyed to see my

special media files reappear.



I waited anxiously for only a few hours, but the fear was real. Loss can be

scary and painful. In Joel 2, the prophet called the people of Judah to

repentance after devastation by a horde of locusts that destroyed the grain

fields, vineyards, gardens, and trees. The prophet had warned the people of

the impending consequences of their rebellion against God. But God hadn't

abandoned them. He would help and bring restoration if they placed their trust

in God: "I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten" (2:25).



God restored Judah when they turned to Him. God wants to restore you as well.



Whatever circumstances you're in, you can turn to God and trust Him - knowing

that He's "the Lord your God, and that there is no other" (v. 27). He is

faithful to help you recover from what was lost and bring you into

a relationship with Him.



Reflect & Pray



How has God helped you during loss?

How can you turn to God in your current situation?



Dear God, thank You for restoring me.

Do you trust God to look after you?

3) Words in Season Scripture Memory Tools



Week 7 Promises of Grace - Day 4 - Giving and Receiving



Luke 6:38



38 "Give, and it will be given to you: Good measure, pressed down,

shaken together, and running over will men give unto you.

For with the measure you use, it will be measured unto you."



38 give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down,

and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom.

For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured

to you again.



"Just give the Lord", the voice on the radio declared. "Give, and he will

give back to you, a hundredfold." The preacher went on to explain how

an old woman on social security had sent her last $10 to support his

ministry, and the next day she got an anonymous money order for

a $1000 . "The Lord will be faithful to his Word," the preacher

concluded. "You give, and you'll receive."

The Lord is, of course, faithful to his Word. But many well-meaning Christians

have interpreted Luke 6:38 as a "payment in kind" bargain with God:

if I give God my dollar, he's obliged to return it to me with interest.

This "seed-sowing" fallacy, where $20 supposedly becomes $2000 by

an act of divine, multiplication, has caused much

disappointment and frustration.

The "giving and receiving" principle is a valid one; the Lord does, indeed say

"Give, and it will be given to you," but he does not specify what the "return"

will be. The verse appears in the context of forgiveness, of not judging; the

principle is not investment, in any material sense, but generosity.

As we give, as few are compassionate with others, we take on the

character of the Lord himself. He is generous and giving, and he gives

to us as we give ourselves in love to others.



Application



a) Have I ever "given" to God to others as a bribe, to get something

in return?



b) What is God's concept of giving, as demonstrated

in the gift of Jesus Christ?



c) How can this verse help me to give more selflessly?



4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland



Matthew 6:19-21



Treasures in Heaven



Lk 12:33-34



19 (Heb 13:5; Lk 12:21) "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth

where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal.

20 (Lk 12:33; Mt 19:21) But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven,

where neither moth nor rust destroy

and where thieves do not break in nor steal,

21 (Lk 12:34) for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."



19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth

corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust

doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

21 for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.



5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:



God's Eternal Faithfulness



2 Tim 2:8-13



8 (Mt 1:1; Ro 2:16) Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead,

descended from David, according to my gospel,

9 (Php 1:7; 2Ti 1:8) in which I suffer trouble like a criminal,

even with chains. But the word of God is not bound.

10 (Col 1:24; 2Co 1:6; 4:17) Therefore I endure all things

for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain

the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

11 (Ro 6:8; 1Th 5:10) This is a faithful saying:

If we die with Him, we shall also live with Him.

12 (Mt 10:33; Ro 8:17 ) If we endure, we shall also reign with Him.

If we deny Him, He also will deny us.

13 (Nu 23:19; Ro 3:3 )If we are faithless,

He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.



8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead

according to my gospel:

9 wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of

God is not bound.

10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also

obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him,

we shall also live with him:

12 if we suffer, we shall also reign with him:

if we deny him, he also will deny us:

13 if we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.



Remember God's promises when You pray



The Lord's prayer



Matthew 6:9-13



9 "Therefore pray in this manner:

Our Father who is in heaven,

hallowed be Your name.

10 (Mt 3:2; 4:17) Your kingdom come;

Your will be done

on earth, as it is in heaven.

11 (Pr 30:8; Isa 33:16) Give us this day our daily bread.

12 (Ex 34:7; Ps 32:1) And forgive us our debts,

as we forgive our debtors.

13 (1Co 10:13; Jn 17:15) And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen."



9 After this manner therefore pray ye:

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

11 Give us this day our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Day 49 of My 6th Bible Study Journey - 18 February 2026 reflections Part 5



6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)



Alberta



Quick facts on Muslims in Alberta



Alberta 2015 population 4121700



est Muslim Population 195240



CNMM Networks: Calgary and Edmonton



It is estimated that Calgary has 82000 Muslims and Edmonton another 50000 .

Alberta may have a total as high as 195240 today.

Calgary is notable as the first Canadian city with a Muslim mayor. It's

become a prominent place of Islamic fundamentalism.

Edmonton's Muslim population is very diverse, with the largest group

coming from Tanzania, followed by Somalia, and then North African countries

such as Egypt, Morocco, etc.

Muslims are coming to faith in Jesus! They overcome huge spiritual,

emotional and cultural hurdles to follow Christ. Yet their challenges still

continue, especially in growing in discipleship. They often fell lost in our

Western congregations, and equally lost trying to find a church body with whom

they can identify. some are even being lured into Christian cult groups.



Please join us in praying for:

- The church to reach out to the growing Muslim populations in Alberta.

- for Canadian churches to start contextualised discipleship ministries to

Muslim-background believers.

- for Muslm-background believers to be well grounded spiritually and socially

in their faith and the Church.

Pray for Jordan




Roa, as a teacher, was convinced she knew everything about Christians: they

worship three gods, their book has been changed, and they live immoral

lives. But she was searching for answers to her inner emptiness.



One day, while driving, she felt the urge to "read the Injil

(New Testament)"! Roa asked a nun who was studying with her for a copy of the

Injil and when Roa began reading in the book of Matthew, was greatly impressed

by Jesus. She began researching him in the Qur'an - and recognised him there

as God: "Jesus is described as the Word of God, and he creates things.

Only God can do that!"



After about a year of self-study and online conversations, Roa prayed to Jesus

for the first time. "I felt incredible peace and joy, I felt like a new

person," she recalls.



She immediately wanted to show her family and friends in the Qur'an what she

had realised. But they took it as criticism of Islam and wanted to make sure

that no one found out about Roa's thoughts. They were also convinced that she

would now lead an immoral life and take drugs. Nevertheless, Roa continues

to love and honor the more than twenty members of her immediate family

and shares her growing faith with them. She fights against the image of

'immoral' Christians and continues to wear the hijab. Roa emphasises that she

has not lost God, but has found Jesus. And she has a heart for her people,

the Jordanians, and uses a variety of ways to introduce them to Jesus.

[1] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[2] Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the LORD your

God.

[3] After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not

do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall

ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.

[4] Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, to walk therein: I

am the LORD your God.

[5] Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man

do, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.

[6] None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover

their nakedness: I am the LORD.

[7] The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou

not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

[8] The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy

father's nakedness.

[9] The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of

thy mother, whether she be born at home, or born abroad, even their

nakedness thou shalt not uncover.

[10] The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter,

even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs is thine own

nakedness.

[11] The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of thy father,

she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

[12] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's sister: she is thy

father's near kinswoman.

[13] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister: for she is

thy mother's near kinswoman.

[14] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's brother, thou

shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt.

[15] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she is thy

son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

[16] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it is thy

brother's nakedness.

[17] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter,

neither shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to

uncover her nakedness; for they are her near kinswomen: it is wickedness.

[18] Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex her, to uncover

her nakedness, beside the other in her life time.



[Incest is illegal]



19 (Lev 15:24; 20:18) Also you shall not approach a woman

to have relations as long as she is in her menstrual uncleanness.



[19] Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as

long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.



[Very unhealthy]



20 (Ex 20:14; Lev 20:10) Moreover, you shall not have relations

with your neighbor's wife to defile yourself with her.

21 (Lev 19:12; 20:2-5; 21:6) You shall not let any of your children

be offered through the fire to Molek,

and so profane the name of your God: I am the Lord.



[20] Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to

defile thyself with her.

[21] And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech,

neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.



[Only one creator]



22 (Lev 20:13; 1Co 6:9; 1Ti 1:100 You shall not lie with a man

as one does with a woman. It is an abomination.



[22] Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.



[homosexual is not in biblical accordance]



23 (Ex 22:19; Lev 20:15-16) You shall not lie with an animal

to defile yourself, nor shall any woman lie with an animal.

It is a perversion.



[23] Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith:

neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is

confusion.



[beastility is not in biblical accordance]



24 (Dt 18:12; Lev 18:30) Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways,

for in these practices the nations I am casting out

before you have defiled themselves.



[24] Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the

nations are defiled which I cast out before you:



[Notice from the Lord]



25 (Lev 18:28; Jer 2:7) And the land has become defiled;

therefore I have punished its iniquity,

and the land has vomited out her inhabitants.

26 (Lev 18:5) But you shall therefore keep My statutes

and My decrees, and you shall not commit any of these abominations,

either the native citizen or any foreigner who sojourns among you

27 (for the people of the land, who were before you,

committed all of these abominations, and the land became defiled),

28 lest the land vomit you out also when you defile it,

as it vomited out the nations that were before you.

29 For whoever shall commit any of these abominations,

those persons who commit them shall be cut off from among their people.

30 (Lev 20:23) Therefore you shall keep My ordinances,

that you do not commit any one of these abominable customs

which were committed before you, so that you do not defile

yourselves by them: I am the Lord your God.



[25] And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon

it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.

[26] Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not

commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any

stranger that sojourneth among you:

[27] (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were

before you, and the land is defiled;)

[28] That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out

the nations that were before you.

[29] For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls

that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.

[30] Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that ye commit not any one of

these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye

defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.

LEVITICUS 17



The Law About Eating Blood



1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel,

and say to them: This is the thing which the Lord has commanded, saying:

3 If anyone of the house of Israel ritually slaughters an ox, a lamb,

or goat in the camp, or slaughters it outside of the camp,

4 (Ge 17:14) and does not bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting

to offer it as a gift to the Lord before the tabernacle of the Lord,

then blood guilt shall be accounted to that man. He has shed blood,

and that man shall be cut off from among his people.

5 This is so that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices

which they offer in the open field, even that they may bring them

to the Lord at the entrance of the tent of meeting, to the priest,

and offer them for peace offerings to the Lord.

6 (Nu 18:17; Lev 3:2) The priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar

of the Lord at the entrance of the tent of meeting,

and burn the fat for a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

7 (Ex 34:15; Dt 32:17) They shall no more offer their sacrifices

to goat demons, after whom they have acted like whores.

This shall be a perpetual statute for them throughout their generations.

8 (Lev 1:2-3) You shall say to them: Any man from the house of Israel,

or from the foreigners who sojourn among you, who offers a burnt offering

or sacrifice,

9 (Lev 17:4) and does not bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting

to offer it to the Lord, even that man shall be cut off from among his people.

10 (Lev 3:17; Ge 9:4) Whoever from the house of Israel,

or from the strangers who sojourn among you, who eats any manner of blood,

I will set My face against that person who eats blood, and will cut him off

from among his people.

11 (Heb 9:22; Mt 26:28; 1Jn 1:7) For the life of the flesh is in the blood,

and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your lives;

for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.

12 Therefore I said to the children of Israel:

No person among you shall eat blood, nor shall any stranger who sojourns

among you eat blood.

13 (Dt 12:16; Lev 7:26) Whoever from the children of Israel,

or from the foreigners who sojourn among you, who hunts and catches

any wild animal or fowl that may be eaten, he shall even pour out the blood

and cover it with dirt.

14 (Ge 9:4) For the life of every creature is its blood;

in its blood is its life. Therefore I said to the children of Israel:

You shall not eat the blood of any creature,

for the life of every creature is its blood.

Whoever eats it shall be cut off.

15 (Ex 22:31; Lev 22:8) Every person who eats that which died of itself,

or that which was torn by animals, whether he is a native citizen

or a foreigner, he shall both wash his clothes and bathe himself in water,

and be unclean until the evening. Then he shall be clean.

16 (Lev 5:1) But if he does not wash them or bathe his body,

then he shall bear his iniquity.



Leviticus 17

[1] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[2] Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the children of

Israel, and say unto them; This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded,

saying,

[3] What man soever there be of the house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or

lamb, or goat, in the camp, or that killeth it out of the camp,

[4] And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,

to offer an offering unto the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD; blood

shall be imputed unto that man; he hath shed blood; and that man shall be

cut off from among his people:

[5] To the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which

they offer in the open field, even that they may bring them unto the LORD,

unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest, and

offer them for peace offerings unto the LORD.

[6] And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of the LORD at

the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet

savour unto the LORD.

[7] And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom

they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them

throughout their generations.

[8] And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever man there be of the house of

Israel, or of the strangers which sojourn among you, that offereth a burnt

offering of sacrifice,

[9] And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation,

to offer it unto the LORD; even that man shall be cut off from among his

people.

[10] And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers

that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my

face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among

his people.

[11] For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you

upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that

maketh an atonement for the soul.

[12] Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat

blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood.

[13] And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the

strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or

fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover

it with dust.

[14] For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life

thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the

blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof:

whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.

[15] And every soul that eateth that which died of itself, or that which was

torn with beasts, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger, he

shall both wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean

until the even: then shall he be clean.

[16] But if he wash them not, nor bathe his flesh; then he shall bear his

iniquity.

Laws on Immoral Relations



1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 (Ex 6:7; Lev 11:44) Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them:

I am the Lord your God.

3 (Ex 23:24; Lev 20:23) After the practices of the land of Egypt,

from where you lived, you shall not follow, and after the practices

of the land of Canaan, to where I will bring you, you shall not follow;

nor shall you walk in their ordinances.

4 (Lev 18:2; 18:26) You shall follow My decrees

and keep My ordinances to walk in them: I am the Lord your God.

5 (Eze 20:11; Ro 10:5) You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments,

which if a man does them, then he shall live by them: I am the Lord.

6 (Lev 18:7-19) None of you shall approach any of his near relatives

to have relations: I am the Lord.

7 (Lev 20:11; Eze 22:10) You shall not have relations with your father

or have relations with your mother. She is your mother.

You shall not have relations with her.

8 (Lev 20:11; 1Co 5:1) You shall not have relations with your father's wife,

for this exposes your father's nakedness.

9 (Lev 20:17; Dt 27:22) You shall not have relations with your sister,

whether your father's or mother's daughter,

whether raised in the family or another home.

10 You shall not have relations with your son's daughter

or your daughter's daughter,

for this exposes your own nakedness.

11 You shall not have relations with your father's wife's daughter

who is raised in your father's family, for she is your sister.

12 (Lev 20:19) You shall not have relations with your father's sister,

for she is your father's relative.

13 You shall not have relations with your mother's sister,

for she is your mother's relative.

14 (Lev 20:20) You shall not expose the nakedness of your father's brother.

You shall not approach his wife for relations; she is your aunt.

15 (Lev 20:12; Ge 38:26) You shall not have relations

with your daughter-in-law, for she is your son's wife

-you shall not have relations with her.

16 (Lev 20:21; Dt 25:5) You shall not have relations

with your brother's wife, for this exposes your brother's nakedness.

17 (Lev 20:14) You shall not have relations with a woman and her daughter,

nor shall you have her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter,

for this exposes the woman's nakedness. They are all near relatives.

It is depravity.

18 And you shall not have a woman as a rival wife,

who is the sister of your other wife,

for this is to expose her nakedness while her sister,

your other wife, is still alive.

for the Holy Place, and the tent of meeting, and the altar,

then he shall bring the live goat.

on the head of the live goat, and confess over it all the iniquities

of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins,

putting them on the head of the goat, and shall send it away

by the hand of a designated man into the wilderness.

in the Holy Place, shall be carried outside the camp.

They shall burn in the fire their hides, their flesh, and their refuse.

in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall humble

yourselves, and do no work of any kind, whether it is the native

citizen or the stranger who sojourns among you.

for you to cleanse you, so that you may be clean from all your sins

before the Lord.

31 (Lev 23:32) It shall be a sabbath, a solemn rest for you,

and you shall humble yourselves. It is a perpetual statute.

and consecrated to minister as a priest in the place of his father,

not at all times into the holy place within the vail before the mercy seat,

which is upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon

the mercy seat.

sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.

[4] He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen

breeches upon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with

the linen mitre shall he be attired: these are holy garments; therefore

shall he wash his flesh in water, and so put them on.

of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.

[6] And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for

himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house.

[14] And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his

finger upon the mercy seat eastward; and before the mercy seat shall he

sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.

[15] Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the

people, and bring his blood within the vail, and do with that blood as he

did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and

before the mercy seat:

[16] And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the

uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions

in all their sins: and so shall he do for the tabernacle of the

congregation, that remaineth among them in the midst of their uncleanness.

[17] And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he

goeth in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out, and have

made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the

congregation of Israel.

[18] And he shall go out unto the altar that is before the LORD, and make an

atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the

blood of the goat, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about.

[19] And he shall sprinkle of the blood upon it with his finger seven times,

and cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of

Israel.

[20] And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the

tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat:

[21] And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and

confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their

transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat,

and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:

[22] And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not

inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.

[23] And Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall

put off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the holy

place, and shall leave them there:

[24] And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on

his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt

offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the

people.

[25] And the fat of the sin offering shall he burn upon the altar.

[26] And he that let go the goat for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes,

and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward come into the camp.

[27] And the bullock for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin

offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place,

shall one carry forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire

their skins, and their flesh, and their dung.

[28] And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in

water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.

[29] And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh

month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no

work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that

sojourneth among you:

[30] For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse

you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD.

[31] It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your

souls, by a statute for ever.

[32] And the priest, whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to

minister in the priest's office in his father's stead, shall make the

atonement, and shall put on the linen clothes, even the holy garments:

[33] And he shall make an atonement for the holy sanctuary, and he shall

make an atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar,

and he shall make an atonement for the priests, and for all the people of

the congregation.

[34] And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make an atonement

for the children of Israel for all their sins once a year. And he did as the

LORD commanded Moses.

6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)



Alberta



Quick facts on Muslims in Alberta



Alberta 2015 population 4121700



est Muslim Population 195240



CNMM Networks: Calgary and Edmonton



It is estimated that Calgary has 82000 Muslims and Edmonton another 50000 .

Alberta may have a total as high as 195240 today.

Calgary is notable as the first Canadian city with a Muslim mayor. It's

become a prominent place of Islamic fundamentalism.

Edmonton's Muslim population is very diverse, with the largest group

coming from Tanzania, followed by Somalia, and then North African countries

such as Egypt, Morocco, etc.

Muslims are coming to faith in Jesus! They overcome huge spiritual,

emotional and cultural hurdles to follow Christ. Yet their challenges still

continue, especially in growing in discipleship. They often fell lost in our

Western congregations, and equally lost trying to find a church body with whom

they can identify. some are even being lured into Christian cult groups.



Please join us in praying for:

- The church to reach out to the growing Muslim populations in Alberta.

- for Canadian churches to start contextualised discipleship ministries to

Muslim-background believers.

- for Muslm-background believers to be well grounded spiritually and socially

in their faith and the Church.

- and for Muslim-background believers to share their faith with their

not-yet-believing family and friendship networks.

- for Farsi and Arabic fellowships to grow in spiritual maturity and outreach.

- for current and new workers among Muslims in these growing Muslim

in these growing Muslim population centres.



Adding further



30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020



Under the Keep Praying page



When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month

and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days

of fasting, the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that

usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and,

of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be

decorated and festivals will be held.



For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the

distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of

Islam.



You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",

which means Blessed Eid!"



Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you

know, and Muslims around the world:



- Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions

in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about

unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such

movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three

decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim

relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.

Acts 2:12-17 : 17 "In the last days it shall be," says God,

"that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;

your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,

your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.

18 Even on My menservants and maidservants

I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy.

19 And I will show wonders in heaven above and signs on the earth below:

blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness,

and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious day of the Lord comes.

21 And whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."[a]



Footnotes

Acts 2:21 Joel 2:28-32.

- Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective

discipleship movements among Muslim people.

- Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for

Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.

Matthew 5:14-15 : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a

hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under

a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the

house."



Ideas for prayer



- Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you

- Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving

Christ among Muslim people -

Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."

- When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims

throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!



My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further

call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity

(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, ...) .

Leviticus 15

[1] And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying,

[2] Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When any man hath

a running issue out of his flesh, because of his issue he is unclean.

[3] And this shall be his uncleanness in his issue: whether his flesh run

with his issue, or his flesh be stopped from his issue, it is his

uncleanness.

[4] Every bed, whereon he lieth that hath the issue, is unclean: and every

thing, whereon he sitteth, shall be unclean.

[5] And whosoever toucheth his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself

in water, and be unclean until the even.

[6] And he that sitteth on any thing whereon he sat that hath the issue

shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the

even.

[7] And he that toucheth the flesh of him that hath the issue shall wash his

clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

[8] And if he that hath the issue spit upon him that is clean; then he shall

wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

[9] And what saddle soever he rideth upon that hath the issue shall be

unclean.

[10] And whosoever toucheth any thing that was under him shall be unclean

until the even: and he that beareth any of those things shall wash his

clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

[11] And whomsoever he toucheth that hath the issue, and hath not rinsed his

hands in water, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and

be unclean until the even.

[12] And the vessel of earth, that he toucheth which hath the issue, shall

be broken: and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water.

[13] And when he that hath an issue is cleansed of his issue; then he shall

number to himself seven days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes, and

bathe his flesh in running water, and shall be clean.

[14] And on the eighth day he shall take to him two turtledoves, or two

young pigeons, and come before the LORD unto the door of the tabernacle of

the congregation, and give them unto the priest:

[15] And the priest shall offer them, the one for a sin offering, and the

other for a burnt offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for him

before the LORD for his issue.

[16] And if any man's seed of copulation go out from him, then he shall wash

all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the even.

[17] And every garment, and every skin, whereon is the seed of copulation,

shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the even.

[18] The woman also with whom man shall lie with seed of copulation, they

shall both bathe themselves in water, and be unclean until the even.

[19] And if a woman have an issue, and her issue in her flesh be blood, she

shall be put apart seven days: and whosoever toucheth her shall be unclean

until the even.

[20] And every thing that she lieth upon in her separation shall be unclean:

every thing also that she sitteth upon shall be unclean.

[21] And whosoever toucheth her bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe

himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

[22] And whosoever toucheth any thing that she sat upon shall wash his

clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

[23] And if it be on her bed, or on any thing whereon she sitteth, when he

toucheth it, he shall be unclean until the even.

[24] And if any man lie with her at all, and her flowers be upon him, he

shall be unclean seven days; and all the bed whereon he lieth shall be

unclean.

[25] And if a woman have an issue of her blood many days out of the time of

her separation, or if it run beyond the time of her separation; all the days

of the issue of her uncleanness shall be as the days of her separation: she

shall be unclean.

[26] Every bed whereon she lieth all the days of her issue shall be unto her

as the bed of her separation: and whatsoever she sitteth upon shall be

unclean, as the uncleanness of her separation.

[27] And whosoever toucheth those things shall be unclean, and shall wash

his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even.

[28] But if she be cleansed of her issue, then she shall number to herself

seven days, and after that she shall be clean.

[29] And on the eighth day she shall take unto her two turtles, or two young

pigeons, and bring them unto the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of

the congregation.

[30] And the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other

for a burnt offering; and the priest shall make an atonement for her before

the LORD for the issue of her uncleanness.

[31] Thus shall ye separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness;

that they die not in their uncleanness, when they defile my tabernacle that

is among them.

[32] This is the law of him that hath an issue, and of him whose seed goeth

from him, and is defiled therewith;

[33] And of her that is sick of her flowers, and of him that hath an issue,

of the man, and of the woman, and of him that lieth with her that is

unclean.

Belle's Belief by Dave Branon



John 3:1-6, 9, 14-16, 36



Jesus and Nicodemus



1 (Jn 19:39) There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus,

a ruler of the Jews.

2 (Ac 2:22; 10:38) He came to Jesus by night and said to Him,

"Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher who has come from God.

For no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him."

3 (Jn 1:13; 3:5-6) Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly I say to you,

unless a man is born again,

[Gk. a litra, or half a liter. he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

4 Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old?

Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?”

5 (Ac 2:38; Eze 36:25-27; Mk 16:16) Jesus answered, "Truly, truly

I say to you, unless a man is born of water and the Spirit,

he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

6 (Ge 6:12; Job 14:4) That which is born of the flesh is flesh,

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

9 (Jn 6:52; 6:60) Nicodemus said to Him, "How can this be?"

14 (Jn 8:28) Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness,

even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

15 (Jn 3:16; 3:36) that whoever believes in Him should not perish,

but may have eternal life.

16 (Ro 5:8; 1Jn 4:9-10; Jn 1-18) "For God so loved the world

that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him

should not perish, but have eternal life.



[1] There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:

[2] The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that

thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that

thou doest, except God be with him.

[3] Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,

Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

[4] Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he

enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

[5] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of

water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

[6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the

Spirit is spirit.

[9] Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

[14] And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the

Son of man be lifted up:

[15] That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

[16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that

whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.



He Who Comes From Heaven



36 (Jn 5:24; 3:15-16) He who believes in the Son has eternal life.

He who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God

remains on him.



[36] He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that

believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on

him.



Belle wanted nothing to do with her parents' faith in Jesus. In college, she

proclaimed herself an agnostic and sought to live without God. But a breakup

with her boyfriend and growing depression sent her on a downward spiral. She

thought of ending her life.



In those depths of despair, she thought of her parents' joy in Christ and,

despite her struggles, eventually trusted Jesus as Savior. Later, she heard a

man speak about a people group in China who'd never heard the gospel. She

wanted to go there to tell them, but some people discouraged her because of

the danger. She went anyway. Together with a young man she met in college

and whom she later married, Belle spent the rest of her life taking the gospel

to people in China and Thailand. Thousands of people trusted Jesus, and the

legacy of this woman, Isobel Kuhn, lives on in those lands.



Who gave a young woman a new life and hope and walked with her as she dealt

with difficult life challenges? Jesus.



Are you wondering what life is about? Perhaps questioning your existence?

Turn to Christ-"God's one and only son" (John 3:18) who died for you

(Romans 5:8). He loves you enough to provide life that lasts forever

(John 3:16). Yes, "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life" (3:36).

And when we believe in Him, as Belle did, He will be with us as we face

life's challenges and help us extend His love to others.

Week 7 Promises of Grace - Day 3 - All I need



Phil 4:19



19 But my God shall supply your every need according

to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.



19 But my God shall supply all your need according

to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.



"But Mom, I really need these!" The strident voice of a teenage girl

rose above the hum of voices in the department store. The item in question

was a pair of $80 blue Jeans, faded, bleached, and torn in the right knee.

Style . Fashion. Self-Image. The girl may not have needed the jeans to

enhance her wardrobe, but she obviously felt she needed then to

enhance her acceptability among her peers.

Phillippains 4:19 promises that God "shall supply your every need according

to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." But just what needs does this

promise cover? My need for a bigger house? A better job?

An $80 pair of Calvin Kleins?

Certainly God knows and cares about the physical, superficial need of our

lives, and he provides what we need to sustain life. But God's priority

goes much deeper than the kind of radial tires we buy or the brand name on

our back pockets. God is interested in eternal values, in spiritual needs, and

he knows what we need in our lives to draw us closer to him.

"Out of his glorious riches in Christ Jesus," God will enrich us spiritually.

The application of Phil 4:19 involves trusting God to know and care about our

real needs, the deep needs of our souls, and allowing him the freedom to

order our circumstances so that those needs are met. When we are bold

enough to pray, "Lord, do whatever is necessary to make me more like

Jesus Christ," our Father delights to answer that prayer and supply our needs.



Application



a) What is the difference between my "Needs" and my "wants"?



b) What spiritual needs can I identify in my life?



c) How can this verse help me keep my own priorities

in line with God's value system?

Leviticus 14



The Law About Leprous Houses



33 The Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying:

34 (Ge 17:8; Dt 32:49) When you have come into the land of Canaan,

which I am giving to you for a possession, and I put a leprous disease

in a house of the land of your possession,

35 (Ps 91:10; Zec 5:4) then he who owns the house shall come

and tell the priest, "It seems to me there is some disease in the house."

36 Then the priest shall command that they empty the house

before the priest goes into it to examine the disease,

so that all that is in the house is not made unclean.

Afterwards, the priest shall go in to examine the house.

37 He shall examine the disease and see if the disease is in the walls

of the house with greenish or reddish spots, which appear to go deeper

than the wall.

38 Then the priest shall go out to the door of the house and close off

the house seven days.

39 The priest shall return on the seventh day

and shall examine and see if the disease has spread in the walls of the house.

40 Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which

the disease appears and throw them into an unclean place outside the city.

41 And he shall cause the house to be scraped all around, and they shall

pour out the plaster that they scrape off

outside the city into an unclean place.

42 And they shall take other stones and put them in the place of those stones,

and he shall take other plaster and shall plaster the house.

43 If the disease comes again and breaks out in the house after he has taken

away the stones and after he has scraped the house and after it is plastered,

44 (Lev 13:51-52) then the priest shall come and examine and see if the

disease has spread in the house. If the disease has spread in the house,

it is a persistent leprosy in the house; it is unclean.

45He shall break down the house, the stones and the timber,

and all the plaster of the house, and he shall carry them

out of the city into an unclean place.

46 (Nu 19:21-22) Moreover, he who goes into the house

while it is closed off shall be unclean until the evening.

47 And he who sleeps in the house shall wash his clothes,

and he who eats in the house shall wash his clothes.

48 If the priest comes in and examines it and sees the disease

has not spread in the house after the house was plastered,

then the priest shall pronounce the house clean,

because the disease is healed.

49 (Lev 14:4) He shall take two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet,

and hyssop to cleanse the house.

50 Then he shall kill one of the birds in a clay vessel over running water.

51 He shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet,

and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird,

and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times.

52 Then he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird,

and with the running water, and with the living bird,

and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the scarlet.

53 But he shall let the living bird loose outside the city

into the open fields and make atonement for the house, and it shall be clean.

54 This is the law for all manner of leprous sore and scale,

55 and for the disease of a garment, or of a house,

56 (Lev 13:2) and for a swelling, or for a scab, or for a spot,

57 (Lev 10:10) to discern when it is unclean and when it is clean.

This is the law of leprosy.



[33] And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

[34] When ye be come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a

possession, and I put the plague of leprosy in a house of the land of your

possession;

[35] And he that owneth the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, It

seemeth to me there is as it were a plague in the house:

[36] Then the priest shall command that they empty the house, before the

priest go into it to see the plague, that all that is in the house be not

made unclean: and afterward the priest shall go in to see the house:

[37] And he shall look on the plague, and, behold, if the plague be in the

walls of the house with hollow strakes, greenish or reddish, which in sight

are lower than the wall;

[38] Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and

shut up the house seven days:

[39] And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall look: and,

behold, if the plague be spread in the walls of the house;

[40] Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which

the plague is, and they shall cast them into an unclean place without the

city:

[41] And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round about, and they

shall pour out the dust that they scrape off without the city into an

unclean place:

[42] And they shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those

stones; and he shall take other morter, and shall plaister the house.

[43] And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after that he

hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped the house, and after

it is plaistered;

[44] Then the priest shall come and look, and, behold, if the plague be

spread in the house, it is a fretting leprosy in the house: it is unclean.

[45] And he shall break down the house, the stones of it, and the timber

thereof, and all the morter of the house; and he shall carry them forth out

of the city into an unclean place.

[46] Moreover he that goeth into the house all the while that it is shut up

shall be unclean until the even.

[47] And he that lieth in the house shall wash his clothes; and he that

eateth in the house shall wash his clothes.

[48] And if the priest shall come in, and look upon it, and, behold, the

plague hath not spread in the house, after the house was plaistered: then

the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.

[49] And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood, and

scarlet, and hyssop:

[50] And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen vessel over

running water:

[51] And he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and

the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the

running water, and sprinkle the house seven times:

[52] And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the bird, and with the

running water, and with the living bird, and with the cedar wood, and with

the hyssop, and with the scarlet:

[53] But he shall let go the living bird out of the city into the open

fields, and make an atonement for the house: and it shall be clean.

[54] This is the law for all manner of plague of leprosy, and scall,

[55] And for the leprosy of a garment, and of a house,

[56] And for a rising, and for a scab, and for a bright spot:

[57] To teach when it is unclean, and when it is clean: this is the law of

leprosy.



LEVITICUS 15



The Law About Bodily Discharges



1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying:

2 (Lev 22:4; Nu 5:2) Speak to the children of Israel,

and say to them: When any man has a discharge out of his body,

his discharge is unclean.

3 This is the instruction for his uncleanness in his discharge,

whether the discharge from his body flows or his body is

stopped up by his discharge, it is his uncleanness.

4 Every bed on which the man with the discharge lies shall be unclean,

and everything on which he sits shall be unclean.

5 (Lev 11:25; 16:26) Whoever touches the bed shall wash his clothes,

and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening.

6 And whoever sits on anything where the man sat who has the discharge

shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water,

and be unclean until the evening.

7 And whoever touches the body of him who has the discharge shall

wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water,

and be unclean until the evening.

8 If the man with the discharge spits on someone who is clean,

then he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water,

and be unclean until the evening.

9 Any saddle on which the man with a discharge rides shall be unclean.

10 Whoever touches anything that was under him shall be unclean

until the evening, and he who carries any of those things shall

wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water,

and be unclean until the evening.

11 Whomever he who has the discharge touches,

and has not rinsed his hands in water,

he shall wash his clothes and bathe in water,

and be unclean until evening.

12 (Lev 6:28; 11:32-33) The earthen vessel that he who has the discharge

touches shall be broken, and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water.

13 (Lev 8:33; 14:8) When he who has a discharge is cleansed of his issue,

then he shall count to himself seven days for his cleansing,

and wash his clothes, and bathe his body in running water, and shall be clean.

14 (Lev 12:8) On the eighth day he shall take two turtledoves or two pigeons

and come before the Lord at the entrance of the tent of meeting

and give them to the priest.

15 (Lev 4:26; 14:30-31) And the priest shall offer them,

one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering,

and the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord for his discharge.

16 (Lev 22:4; Dt 23:10-11; Lev 15:5) If any man has a seminal emission,

then he shall wash all his body in water and be unclean until the evening.

17 Every garment and all leather on which there is seminal emission

shall be washed with water and be unclean until the evening.

18 If a man lies with a woman, and there is an emission of semen,

they shall both bathe themselves in water and be unclean until the evening.

19 (Lev 12:2) If a woman has a discharge, and the discharge from her body

is blood, she shall be set apart for seven days; and whoever touches

her shall be unclean until the evening.

20 (Lev 15:4-9) Everything that she lies on in her menstrual impurity

shall be unclean. Also, everything that she sits on shall be unclean.

21 Whoever touches her bed shall wash his clothes and bathe himself

in water, and be unclean until the evening.

22 Whoever touches anything on which she sits shall wash his clothes

and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening.

23 Whether it is the bed or anything on which she sits,

when he touches it he shall be unclean until the evening.

24 (Lev 20:18; 18:19) If any man lies with her,

and her menstrual impurity is on him,

he shall be unclean seven days,

and every bed where he lies shall be unclean.

25 (Mt 9:20; Mk 5:25) If a woman has a discharge of blood for many days,

not at the time of her menstrual impurity, or if she has a discharge

beyond the time of her impurity, all the days of the discharge

she shall be in uncleanness, as in the days of her impurity.

She shall be unclean.

26 Every bed that she lies on all the days of her discharge shall be

for impurity, and whatever she sits on shall be unclean,

as the uncleanness of her menstrual impurity.

27 Whoever touches those things shall be unclean

and shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water

and be unclean until the evening.

28 (Lev 15:13-15) But if she is cleansed of her discharge,

then she shall count to herself seven days,

and after that she shall be clean.

29 On the eighth day she shall take two turtledoves

or two pigeons and bring them to the priest

at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

30 The priest shall offer one for a sin offering

and the other for a burnt offering,

and the priest shall make atonement for her before the Lord

for her unclean discharge.

31 (Nu 5:3; 19:13; 19:20) Thus you shall separate

the children of Israel from their uncleanness,

so that they do not die in their uncleanness by defiling

My tabernacle that is among them.

32 This is the law for him who has a discharge and for him

who has a seminal emission and thus becomes unclean,

33 and for her who is sick from her menstruation,

and for him who has a discharge, for anyone male or female,

and for the man who lies with a woman who is unclean.

LEVITICUS 14



The Law for Cleansing Lepers



1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 (Lk 17:14; Nu 6:9) This shall be the law of the leper in the day

of his cleansing: It shall be reported to the priest,

3 (Lev 13:46) and the priest shall go out of the camp, and the priest

shall examine him and see if the disease is healed in the leprous person.

4 (Nu 19:6; Lev 14:6) Then the priest shall command that two live clean birds

and cedar wood and scarlet fabric and hyssop be brought for him

who is to be cleansed.

5 The priest shall command that one of the birds be slaughtered

in a clay vessel over running water.

6 As for the living bird, he shall take it, the cedar wood,

the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird

in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water.

7 (2Ki 5:10; 5:14) Then he shall sprinkle it seven times on him

who is to be cleansed from leprosy, and he shall pronounce him

clean and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.

8 (Lev 11:25; Nu 8:7) He that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes,

and shave off all his hair, and wash himself in water,

so that he may be clean. After that he shall come into the camp

and shall stay outside of his tent seven days.

9 (Nu 6:9) But it shall be on the seventh day that he shall shave

all his hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows,

all his hair he shall shave off, and he shall wash his clothes.

Also he shall wash his body in water, and he shall be clean.

10 (Lev 2:1; 14:12) On the eighth day he shall take two male lambs

without blemish, and one ewe lamb a year old without blemish,

and three-tenths of an ephah (Or stranger.) of wheat flour mixed

with oil for a grain offering, and one log of oil.

(About 1/3 quart, or 0.3 liter; and in vv. 12, 15, 21, and 24.)

11 The priest who makes him clean shall present the man

who is to be made clean and those things before the Lord

at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

12 (Ex 29:24; Lev 6:6-7) Then the priest shall take one male lamb

and offer it for a guilt offering, along with the log of oil,

and wave them for a wave offering before the Lord.

13 (Ex 29:11; Lev 1:11) Then he shall slaughter the lamb in the place

where they kill the sin offering and the burnt offering in the holy

sanctuary. For as the sin offering is the priest's, so is the guilt offering.

It is most holy.

14 (Ex 29:20; Lev 8:23-24) And the priest shall take some of the blood

of the guilt offering, and the priest shall put it on the tip of the right

ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand,

and on the big toe of his right foot.

15 And the priest shall take some of the log of oil and pour it into the palm

of his own left hand.

16 Then the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is

in his left hand, and shall sprinkle from the oil with his finger

seven times before the Lord.

17 And some of the rest of the oil that is in his hand the priest

shall put on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed,

and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot,

and on the blood of the guilt offering.

18 (Lev 4:26) And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand

he shall pour upon the head of him who is to be cleansed,

and the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord.

19 (Lev 14:12) The priest shall offer the sin offering,

and make atonement for him who is to be cleansed

from his ceremonial uncleanness,

and afterward he shall kill the burnt offering.

20 (Lev 14:10) Then the priest shall offer the burnt offering

and the grain offering on the altar, and the priest shall

make atonement for him, and he shall be clean.

21 (Lev 12:8; 5:7) But if he is poor and cannot afford so much,

then he shall take one male lamb for a guilt offering to be waved

to make atonement for him, and one-tenth of an ephah

(Likely about 3 1/2 pounds, or 1.6 kilograms.)

of wheat flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, and a log of oil,

22 and two turtledoves or two pigeons, such as he is able to afford.

The one shall be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering.

23 (Lev 14:10-11) He shall bring them on the eighth day

for his cleansing to the priest at the entrance

of the tent of meeting before the Lord.

24 The priest shall take the lamb of the guilt offering,

along with the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them

for a wave offering before the Lord.

25 Then he shall kill the lamb of the guilt offering;

and the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering

and put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed

and on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot.

26 Next the priest shall pour some of the oil into the palm

of his own left hand,

27 and the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger

some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before the Lord.

28 Then the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand

on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed,

and on the thumb of his right hand,

and on the big toe of his right foot on the place of the blood

of the guilt offering.

29 (Lev 14:18) The rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand

he shall pour on the head of him who is to be cleansed to make

atonement for him before the Lord.

30 (Lev 14:22) He shall offer one of the turtledoves or the pigeons,

such as he can afford,

31 even such as he is able to get, one for a sin offering

and the other for a burnt offering, along with the grain offering,

and the priest shall make atonement for him who is to be cleansed

before the Lord.

32 (Lev 14:10; 14:21)This is the law for a person who has a leprous

sore who cannot afford the offerings for his cleansing.



Leviticus 14

[1] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[2] This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: He shall

be brought unto the priest:

[3] And the priest shall go forth out of the camp; and the priest shall

look, and, behold, if the plague of leprosy be healed in the leper;

[4] Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two

birds alive and clean, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:

[5] And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an

earthen vessel over running water:

[6] As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the

scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood

of the bird that was killed over the running water:

[7] And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy

seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird

loose into the open field.

[8] And he that is to be cleansed shall wash his clothes, and shave off all

his hair, and wash himself in water, that he may be clean: and after that he

shall come into the camp, and shall tarry abroad out of his tent seven days.

[9] But it shall be on the seventh day, that he shall shave all his hair off

his head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair he shall shave

off: and he shall wash his clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in water,

and he shall be clean.

[10] And on the eighth day he shall take two he lambs without blemish, and

one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish, and three tenth deals of

fine flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, and one log of oil.

[11] And the priest that maketh him clean shall present the man that is to

be made clean, and those things, before the LORD, at the door of the

tabernacle of the congregation:

[12] And the priest shall take one he lamb, and offer him for a trespass

offering, and the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before the

LORD:

[13] And he shall slay the lamb in the place where he shall kill the sin

offering and the burnt offering, in the holy place: for as the sin offering

is the priest's, so is the trespass offering: it is most holy:

[14] And the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering,

and the priest shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to

be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of

his right foot:

[15] And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the

palm of his own left hand:

[16] And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his

left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before

the LORD:

[17] And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall the priest put

upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the

thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the

blood of the trespass offering:

[18] And the remnant of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall pour

upon the head of him that is to be cleansed: and the priest shall make an

atonement for him before the LORD.

[19] And the priest shall offer the sin offering, and make an atonement for

him that is to be cleansed from his uncleanness; and afterward he shall kill

the burnt offering:

[20] And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the meat offering

upon the altar: and the priest shall make an atonement for him, and he shall

be clean.

[21] And if he be poor, and cannot get so much; then he shall take one lamb

for a trespass offering to be waved, to make an atonement for him, and one

tenth deal of fine flour mingled with oil for a meat offering, and a log of

oil;

[22] And two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, such as he is able to get;

and the one shall be a sin offering, and the other a burnt offering.

[23] And he shall bring them on the eighth day for his cleansing unto the

priest, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, before the

LORD.

[24] And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the

log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the

LORD:

[25] And he shall kill the lamb of the trespass offering, and the priest

shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and put it upon the

tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of

his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot:

[26] And the priest shall pour of the oil into the palm of his own left

hand:

[27] And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil

that is in his left hand seven times before the LORD:

[28] And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his hand upon the tip of

the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right

hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the place of the blood

of the trespass offering:

[29] And the rest of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall put upon

the head of him that is to be cleansed, to make an atonement for him before

the LORD.

[30] And he shall offer the one of the turtledoves, or of the young pigeons,

such as he can get;

[31] Even such as he is able to get, the one for a sin offering, and the

other for a burnt offering, with the meat offering: and the priest shall

make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed before the LORD.

[32] This is the law of him in whom is the plague of leprosy, whose hand is

not able to get that which pertaineth to his cleansing.
