Eight) Day 13 - New season, crucified self, resurrected life.



Scripture: Galatians 2:20



20 (Ro 8:37; Gal 1:4) I have been crucified with Christ.

It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.

And the life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God,

Or by the faith of the Son of God. who loved me and gave Himself for me.



[20] I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ

liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith

of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

I have a friend who chants to himself, "die to self, die to self," when he is

doing something that he does not want to do for his wife. This is a humourous

thing, but it is a true statement that Jesus calls us to in Luke 9:23: we are

to deny ourselves, give up our own ways, pick up the cross, and follow Him.



This is dying to our old self, not just in changing our actions, but dying to

our old identity. The context of Galatians 2:20 concerns the law and our

inability to fulfill it and be right with God by our own actions. Our identity

is not based on our efforts to do good; it is based on Jesus Christ.

It is trusting Christ to live through you.



Dying to ourselves is relinquishing control of our lives to Christ. It is

accepting God's will over our personal preference, and accepting death to

anything that is not aligned with God. This shift takes away our

self-centeredness and our former self, who was dominated by sin,

is now put to death.



Our new life is now lived by faith in Christ's love and sacrifice,

not by self-directed ambition.



This new identity in Christ can be further studied:



2 Corinthians 5:17,



17 (Jn 3:3; Ro 16:7) Therefore, if any man is in Christ,

he is a new creature. Old things have passed away. Look, all things have

become new.



[17] Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are

passed away; behold, all things are become new.



John 1:12,



12 Yet to all who received Him, He gave the power to become sons of God,

to those who believed in His name,



[12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the

sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:



Romans 8:15–16,



15 (Mk 14:36; 1Co 2:12) For you have not received the spirit of slavery

again to fear. But you have received the Spirit of adoption, by whom

we cry, “Abba, Father.”

16 (Eph 1:13; 2Co 1:22) The Spirit Himself bears witness

with our spirits that we are the children of God,



[15] For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye

have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

[16] The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the

children of God:



2 Corinthians 5:21,



21 (Ro 1:17; 1Co 1:30) God made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we

might become the righteousness of God in Him.



[21] For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might

be made the righteousness of God in him.



Romans 8:1,



1 (1Co 1:30; 2Co 5:17) There is therefore now no condemnation for those

who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh, but according

to the Spirit.



[1] There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ

Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.



1 Peter 2:9,



9 (Dt 7:6; 10:15) But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy

nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may declare the

goodness of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.



[9] But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a

peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath

called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:



Ephesians 2:10,



10 (Eph 4:24; 2Co 5:17; Eph 1:4) For we are His workmanship, created

in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand,

so that we should walk in them.



[10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works,

which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.



Galatians 2:20,



20 (Ro 8:37; Gal 1:4) I have been crucified with Christ.

It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.

And the life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God,

Or by the faith of the Son of God. who loved me and gave Himself for me.



[20] I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ

liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith

of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.



Ephesians 2:6,



6 (Eph 1:3) and He raised us up and seated us together in the heavenly places

in Christ Jesus,



[6] And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly

places in Christ Jesus:



Romans 8:37.



37 (1Co 15:57; Gal 2:20) No, in all these things we are more than

conquerors through Him who loved us.



[37] Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that

loved us.

Personal Reflection Questions:



- Where in my life am I still holding onto control or personal preference

instead of trusting Christ to live through me?



- In this season, what part of my "old identity" (pride, approval-seeking,

fear, selfish ambition, comfort) is Jesus inviting me to surrender so

I can live more fully by faith in Him?



Prayer Points:



- Pray into the leading of the Holy Spirit in the new season at Calvary Youth.



- Pray for the team of volunteers and staff who are pastoring the students at

Calvary Youth, giving them strength, wisdom, energy, and endurance

to finish the year well!

Quick facts on Muslims in Saskatchewan



Saskatchewan 2015 population 1125400



est Muslim Population 17279



CNMM Networks: Saskatoon



Saskatoon has seen quick growth in its Muslim population over the past

5 years, which maybe as high as 5000 today. Islamic leaders have

focused specifically on this city , having twice already sent cohorts

of about 70 families to start mosques. There are now 7 Islamic centres

of worship and an ISlamic madrassah (school) located right next to a

Christian school.

Of particular concern recently is the number of young adults who grew up

in evangelical churches and converted to Islam. Most of these are young

women whowere wooed by Muslim man and became emotionally bonded.

Both prior to and after marrying, these women are known to convert to ISlam.

Pray for Bangladesh



Five years ago, Rupal and his brother moved to Dhaka, the capital of

Bangladesh, in order to find work. They found an affordable place to

live, with five other men in a small apartment. Rupal thought that one

roommate was different, perhaps because he came from another region.



Aarav ("peaceful") was a peaceful person who never spoke badly about

anyone. But eventually Rupal discovered that this man was reading the

Injil (New Testament) regularly. Rupal tried to talk Aarav out of

reading this book. But Aarav told him that it was different than other

books.



"The Injil changes you!" Aarav said. "When you read it, it seems like a

person talking to you that knows you well."



Rupal wanted to read he Injjil himself, and Aarav allowed him to borrow

his copy. Quickly, Rupal found himself reading it more and more . And

Aarav was proved right. The Injil did seem to change Rupal.



In Matthew 5-7 he found the most beautiful things he had ever heard.

This was the true way! Jesus taught with authority, not like other

teachers. He showed the straight path to God, forgiving enemies and

obeying God, not people.



Rupal decided that he needed Jesus. Some time later, Rupal's brother

started to follow Jesus, too. Now they are seven men following Jesus

and reading together. They love each other and people around them. And,

as they reach out to Bengali people, they show them that the Injil has

not been changed, but that it is the wonderful book that changes you!



How to Pray



Pray for Aarav, Rupal and others, to experience God's wisdom, power

and protection.

Cry out in faith for the more than 135 million Bengali people who

are among the least reached peoples worldwide.

* Pray that the many Bible study groups among the Bengali would

develop into churches glorifying Jesus.



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, ...) .

Romans 12:4-8



4 (1Co 12:12-14)For just as we have many parts in one body,

and not all parts have the same function,

5(1Co 10:17; 12:20)so we, being many, are one body in Christ,

and all are parts of one another.

6(Ac 13:1; 1Co 13:2)We have diverse gifts according to the grace that

is given to us: if prophecy, according to the proportion of faith;

7 (Ac 13:1; Eph 4:11)if service, in serving; he who teaches, in teaching;

8 (2Co 9:7; 1Co 12:28) he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with

generosity; he who rules, with diligence;

he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.



4 For as we have many members in one body,

and all members have not the same office:

5 so we, being many, are one body in Christ,

and every one members one of another.

6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that

is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according

to the proportion of faith;

7 or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth,

on teaching;

8 or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let

him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence;

he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

Week 1 Knowing God's Word Day 7 - The Cost of Wisdom



Proverbs 4:4,7



Proverbs 4



4 (Pr 7:2; Eph 6:4) He also taught me and said to me,

"Let your heart retain my words; keep my commandments, and live.

7 (Mt 13:44-46) Wisdom is principal; therefore get wisdom.

And with all your getting, get understanding. "



4 He taught me also, and said unto me,

Let thine heart retain my words:

Keep my commandments, and live.

7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom:

And with all thy getting get understanding.



Establishing priorities is a popular topic of conversation in our

generation. We carry appointment calendars and attend goal-setting

strategy seminars. We let machines answer our telephones so that

we won't miss any important messages, or so that we can screen calls

before we answer them. We order our lives so that we can "get ahead".

"Getting ahead" in God's kingdom, however, involves other priorities

than the ones we may set for ourselves. "Wisdom is supreme," the

principal thing, says Proverbs 4:7, "Get wisdom. Though it cost

all you have, get understanding."

Wisdom is defined as "an understanding of what is true, right, or lasting."

Biblical wisdom is not merely the accumulation of facts about God and his

teaching, but the application of those truths of life, taking on

the character of God as we mature in the image of Christ.

Such wisdom may, indeed, come at great cost. Jesus calls us to "lay

down our lives" to follow him - perhaps not literally to die, but to die

to self-centered priorities, to allow the Holy Spirit to establish

his value system in us.

"Keep my commandments and you will live," Proverbs 4:4 says. Real life -

rich, fulfilling, significant, abundant life - comes only through union

with God. The success offered by the world, the acclaim of others, material

prosperity and convenience cannot satisfy us once we have tasted

the joy of life with God in Christ.



Application



a) What does "getting wisdom" means to me?



b) What practical changes can I make in my life to help me focus

my attention on the priorities and values of the Lord?

Exodus 3:7-8



7 (Ps 106:44; Ex 2:23-25)The Lord said,

"I have surely seen the affliction of My people who are in Egypt

and have heard their cry on account of their taskmasters,

for I know their sorrows.

8 (Ge 50:24; 15:18-21; Ex 13:5) Therefore, I have come down

to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians,

and to bring them up out of that land to a good and spacious land,

to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of

the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites,

the Hivites, and the Jebusites."



7 And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people

which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters;

for I know their sorrows;

8 and I am come down to deliver them out of the hand

of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and

a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the

Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites,

and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

Numbers 31





Dividing the Plunder



25 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

26 "Take the count of the plunder that was taken, of man and of beast,

you and Eleazar the priest, and the chief of the fathers of the assembly.

27 (Jos 22:8) And divide the prey into two parts between those that took

the war on themselves, who went out to battle, and between all the assembly.

28 (Nu 18:26; 31:30) And levy a tribute to the Lord

from the fighting men of Israel who went out to battle:

1 person out of 500, of the people and of the oxen, and of the donkeys,

and of the sheep;

29 take it from their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest

as an offering to the Lord.

30 (Nu 3:7-8; 3:25) Of the half of the children of Israel, you will take

one portion of fifty, of the people, of the oxen, of the donkeys,

and of the flocks, of all manner of beasts, and give them to the Levites,

who keep the guard of the tabernacle of the Lord."

31 Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord commanded Moses.

32 The plunder, being the rest of the prey, which the fighting men of Israel

had caught, was 675000 sheep,

33 72000 oxen,

34 and 61000 donkeys,

35 and 32 000 people in all, of women

who had not known a man by lying with him.

36 The half, which was the portion of those that went out to war,

was 337500 sheep.

37 And the Lord's tribute of the sheep was 675.

38 The oxen were 36000, of which the Lord's tribute was 72.

39 The donkeys were 30500, of which the Lord's tribute was 61.

40 The people were 16000, of which the Lord's tribute was 32 people.

41 (Nu 18:8; 18:19) Moses gave the tribute which was the Lord's offering

to Eleazar the priest, as the Lord commanded Moses.

42 Of the half of the children of Israel,

which Moses divided from the men who fought,

43 the half belonging to the assembly was 337500 sheep,

44 36000 oxen,

45 53500 donkeys,

46 and 16000 people.

47 (Nu 31:30) From the half of the children of Israel Moses took one out

of fifty, of man and of beast, and gave them to the Levites, who kept

the guard of the tabernacle of the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.

48 The officers who were over thousands of the army,

the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds,

came near to Moses,

49 and they said to Moses, "Your servants have taken

the count of the fighting men of Israel who are in our hand,

and not a man of us is missing.

50 (Ex 30:12; 30:15-16) We have brought an offering for the Lord,

what every man has gotten of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets,

rings, earrings, and pendants, to make an atonement for ourselves

before the Lord."

51 Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from them,

all in the form of fashioned articles.

52 All the gold of the offering that they offered up to the Lord,

of the captains of thousands and of the captains of hundreds,

was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.

(About 420 pounds, or 190 kilograms. )

53 (Dt 20:14) The fighting men of Israel had taken plunder,

each man for himself.

54 (Ex 30:16) And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains

of thousands and of hundreds and brought it into the tent of meeting

as a memorial for the children of Israel before the Lord.



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

[26] Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast,

thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the chief fathers of the congregation:

[27] And divide the prey into two parts; between them that took the war upon

them, who went out to battle, and between all the congregation:

[28] And levy a tribute unto the LORD of the men of war which went out to

battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the beeves,

and of the asses, and of the sheep:

[29] Take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for an

heave offering of the LORD.

[30] And of the children of Israel's half, thou shalt take one portion of

fifty, of the persons, of the beeves, of the asses, and of the flocks, of

all manner of beasts, and give them unto the Levites, which keep the charge

of the tabernacle of the LORD.

[31] And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.

[32] And the booty, being the rest of the prey which the men of war had

caught, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand

sheep,

[33] And threescore and twelve thousand beeves,

[34] And threescore and one thousand asses,

[35] And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of woman that had not known

man by lying with him.

[36] And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was

in number three hundred thousand and seven and thirty thousand and five

hundred sheep:

[37] And the LORD's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and

fifteen.

[38] And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the LORD's

tribute was threescore and twelve.

[39] And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which the

LORD's tribute was threescore and one.

[40] And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which the LORD's tribute was

thirty and two persons.

[41] And Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD's heave offering, unto

Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.

[42] And of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided from the men

that warred,

[43] (Now the half that pertained unto the congregation was three hundred

thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep,

[44] And thirty and six thousand beeves,

[45] And thirty thousand asses and five hundred,

[46] And sixteen thousand persons;)

[47] Even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one portion of fifty,

both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levites, which kept the

charge of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.

[48] And the officers which were over thousands of the host, the captains of

thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses:

[49] And they said unto Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of

war which are under our charge, and there lacketh not one man of us.

[50] We have therefore brought an oblation for the LORD, what every man hath

gotten, of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings, and

tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before the LORD.

[51] And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all

wrought jewels.

[52] And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to the LORD, of

the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen

thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.

[53] (For the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.)

[54] And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of

thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of the

congregation, for a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD.

4 (Eph 1:18; 2:16) There is one body and one Spirit, even as you were called

in one hope of your calling,

5 (1Co 8:6; Mt 28:19) one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6 (Ro 11:36; 1Co 12:6) one God and Father of all, who is above all,

and through all, and in you all.

7 (Ro 12:3; Eph 3:2) But grace was given to each one of us according

to the measure of the gift of Christ.



[1] I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy

of the vocation wherewith ye are called,

[2] With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one

another in love;

[3] Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

[4] There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of

your calling;

[5] One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

[6] One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you

all.

[7] But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the

gift of Christ.



In January 1967, the town of Winneconne discovered it had been mistakenly

omitted from the official Wisconsin state road map, costing the town vital

tourist revenue. So the town decided to secede from Wisconsin and become its

own sovereign state on July 21 of that year. Some say the secession was a

move to embarrass the state government, while others claim it was

a tongue-in-cheek act of humour. In any case, months of negotiations resulted

in state and town coming together again on July 22, 1967.



Most division isn't as good-natured or as easily resolved. Division is such a

threat that the book of Proverbs lists "the person who stirs up conflict"

(6:19) as one of seven things "that are detestable to [God]" (v. 16).



Division may not only cause problems but misrepresents Jesus and His Father.

The night before the cross, Christ prayed that His followers would be one in

Him, "that the world may believe that you have sent me" (John 17:21).



Jesus made it clear that our unity as brothers and sisters in Christ (or lack

of it) impacts the world's belief in Him! Perhaps that's why Paul told the

Ephesians, "Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the

bond of peace" (Ephesians 4:3). May we allow the Spirit of Christ to make us

one-that the world may be drawn to Him.



Reflect & Pray



What are some of the things that can divide you from other believers?

How can those potential points of conflict be resolved,

so that the body of Christ might know and display unity?



Dear Father, please give me a heart for my brothers and sisters in Christ.





Learn how you can cultivate unity within your church and community.

NUMBERS 30



The Law About Vows



1 (Nu 7:2) And Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the children

of Israel, saying: This is the thing that the Lord has commanded.

2 (Job 22:27; Ps 22:25) If a man vows a vow to the Lord, or swears

an oath to bind himself with a bond, he will not break his word.

He will do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.

3 If a woman makes a vow to the Lord, and binds herself by a bond,

while in her father's house in her youth,

4 and her father hears her vow and her bond with which she has bound

herself, and her father is silent to her, then all her vows will stand,

and every bond with which she has bound herself will stand.

5 But if her father restrains her in the day he hears, none of her vows

or her bonds with which she has bound herself will stand,

and the Lord will forgive her, because her father restrained her.

6 (Ps 56:12) If she had a husband when she vowed, or uttered anything

out of her lips with which she bound herself,

7 and her husband heard it and was silent to her in the day that he heard it,

then her vows will stand, and her bonds with which she bound herself will stand.

8 (Ge 3:16) But if her husband restrains her on the day that he heard it,

then he will make her vow which she vowed and that which she uttered

with her lips, with which she bound herself, of no effect,

and the Lord will forgive her.

9 But every vow of a widow and of her that is divorced,

with which she has bound herself, will stand against her.

10 If she vowed in her husband's house, or bound herself by a bond

with an oath,

11 and her husband heard it and was silent to her and did not restrain her,

then all her vows will stand, and every bond with

which she bound herself will stand.

12 (Nu 30:8) But if her husband has clearly voided them on the day

he heard them, then whatever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows,

or concerning the bond of herself, will not stand. Her husband

has voided them, and the Lord will forgive her.

13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict her soul,

her husband may establish, or her husband may nullify.

14 But if her husband says nothing to her from day to day,

then he confirms all her vows, or all her pledges, which bind her.

He confirms them because he said nothing to her on the day that he heard them.

15 (Lev 5:1) But if he clearly makes them void after he has heard them,

then he will bear her iniquity.

16 These are the statutes which the Lord commanded Moses,

between a man and his wife, and between the father and his daughter,

while she is still young and in her father's house.



Numbers 30

[1] And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes concerning the children of

Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded.

[2] If a man vow a vow unto the LORD, or swear an oath to bind his soul with

a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that

proceedeth out of his mouth.

[3] If a woman also vow a vow unto the LORD, and bind herself by a bond,

being in her father's house in her youth;

[4] And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her

soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all her vows shall

stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.

[5] But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any of

her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand:

and the LORD shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.

[6] And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out

of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;

[7] And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he

heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her

soul shall stand.

[8] But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he

shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her

lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none effect: and the LORD shall

forgive her.

[9] But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they

have bound their souls, shall stand against her.

[10] And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond

with an oath;

[11] And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and disallowed her

not: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she bound her

soul shall stand.

[12] But if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day he heard

them; then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or

concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them

void; and the LORD shall forgive her.

[13] Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may

establish it, or her husband may make it void.

[14] But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day;

then he establisheth all her vows, or all her bonds, which are upon her: he

confirmeth them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard

them.

[15] But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath heard them;

then he shall bear her iniquity.

[16] These are the statutes, which the LORD commanded Moses, between a man

and his wife, between the father and his daughter, being yet in her youth in

her father's house.



NUMBERS 31



Vengeance on the Midianites



1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 (Nu 27:13) "Avenge the children of Israel on the Midianites.

Afterward you will be gathered to your people."

3 (Lev 26:25) Moses spoke to the people, saying,

"Arm some of your men for war, and let them go against the Midianites

to give the vengeance of the Lord against Midian.

4 A thousand from each tribe, throughout all the tribes of Israel,

you will send to the war."

5 So there were delivered from the thousands of Israel

1000 of each tribe, 12000 armed for war.

6 (Nu 14:44; 10:8-9) Moses sent them to the war, a thousand from each tribe,

with Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, with the holy vessels

and the trumpets to sound the alarm in his hand.

7 (Jdg 21:11; 1Ki 11:15-16) They waged war against the Midianites,

as the Lord commanded Moses, and they killed every male.

8 (Nu 25:15; Jos 13:21-22) They killed the kings of Midian,

in addition to the rest of those who were killed:

Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba,

five kings of Midian. Balaam the son of Beor they also killed with the sword.

9 The children of Israel returned with the women of Midian and their children

and took their livestock, and all their flocks,

and all their wealth for plunder.

10 They burned with fire all their cities in which

they lived and all their camps.

11 (Dt 20:14; Jos 8:2) They took all the plunder and all the prey

of men and of beasts.

12 (Nu 22:1) They brought the captives, the prey, and the plunder to Moses,

to Eleazar the priest, to the assembly of the children of Israel,

and to the camp on the plains of Moab, which are by Jordan across from Jericho.

13 Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the leaders of the assembly went

to meet them outside the camp.

14 Moses was angry with the officers of the army, with the captains

over thousands, and captains over hundreds, who came from the battle.

15 (1Sa 15:3) Moses said to them, "Have you saved all the women alive?

16 (2Pe 2:15; Rev 2:14) These caused the children of Israel, through

the word of Balaam, to act unfaithfully against the Lord concerning

the thing of Peor, and there was a plague among the assembly of the Lord.

17 (Jdg 21:11-12) So now kill every male among the little ones,

and kill every woman who has known a man by lying with him.

18 (Dt 21:10-14) But keep alive for yourselves all the young girls

who have not known a man by lying with him.

19 (Nu 5:2; 19:11-22) "And you stay outside the camp seven days.

Whoever has killed any person and whoever has touched any slain,

purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day

and on the seventh day.

20 Purify all your clothes, and all that is made of skins,

and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood."

21 Eleazar the priest said to the fighting men of Israel who went

to the battle, "This is the ordinance of the law which the Lord

commanded Moses:

22 Only the gold, and the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin,

and the lead,

23 (Nu 19:9; 19:17) everything that can go through the fire,

you will make it go through the fire, and it will be clean,

but some of it will be purified with the water of purification,

and all that cannot pass through the fire you will make go through the water.

24 (Lev 11:25) You will wash your clothes on the seventh day,

and you will be clean, and afterward you will come into the camp."



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

[2] Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be

gathered unto thy people.

[3] And Moses spake unto the people, saying, Arm some of yourselves unto the

war, and let them go against the Midianites, and avenge the LORD of Midian.

[4] Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, shall ye

send to the war.

[5] So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of

every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

[6] And Moses sent them to the war, a thousand of every tribe, them and

Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the holy

instruments, and the trumpets to blow in his hand.

[7] And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded Moses; and

they slew all the males.

[8] And they slew the kings of Midian, beside the rest of them that were

slain; namely, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of

Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they slew with the sword.

[9] And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives, and

their little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their

flocks, and all their goods.

[10] And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their

goodly castles, with fire.

[11] And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of

beasts.

[12] And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, unto Moses,

and Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel,

unto the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by Jordan near Jericho.

[13] And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the

congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.

[14] And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains

over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.

[15] And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?

[16] Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of

Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and there

was a plague among the congregation of the LORD.

[17] Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every

woman that hath known man by lying with him.

[18] But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with

him, keep alive for yourselves.

[19] And do ye abide without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any

person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify both yourselves and

your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day.

[20] And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and all

work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood.

[21] And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which went to the

battle, This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD commanded Moses;

[22] Only the gold, and the silver, the brass, the iron, the tin, and the

lead,

[23] Every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make it go through the

fire, and it shall be clean: nevertheless it shall be purified with the

water of separation: and all that abideth not the fire ye shall make go

through the water.

[24] And ye shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and ye shall be

clean, and afterward ye shall come into the camp.

Eight) Day 12 - Fasting clarifies what must be removed to receive what's next.



Scripture: Colossians 3:9-10 NLT



9 (Eph 4:22; 4:25) Do not lie one to another, since you have put off

the old nature with its deeds,

10 (Eph 2:10; 4:23-24; Ro 12:2) and have embraced the new nature,

which is renewed in knowledge after the image of Him who created it,



[9] Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his

deeds;

[10] And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the

image of him that created him:



---



Spiritual growth doesn't drift toward renewal—it moves there by decision.



Paul's words are direct because the moment demands it: put off and put on.

This is not about trying harder; it’s about choosing differently. The old self

still shows up - not because it belongs, but because it's familiar. And what's

familiar can quietly shape what's next if it's not intentionally surrendered.



This is where fasting helps. Fasting removes the noise. It reveals what's

driving us beneath the surface - old desires, reactions, or identities that no

longer align with who Christ is forming us to be. Fasting doesn't make us

weak; it makes us honest. And honesty is the starting point of renewal.



The new self isn't something you create - it's someone you receive. Paul says

it is being renewed in the image of the Creator. That means God is reshaping

identity, not just behavior. He's realigning desire, not just discipline.

He's redirecting our lives, not just our schedules.



Here’s the tension: you can't put on the new while still clinging to the old.

Renewal requires release. But when you let go, something better fits. Over

time, what once felt unnatural - obedience, humility, trust - becomes your

default.



Fasting creates the margin where this exchange happens. What God reveals, He

intends to renew. What He asks you to remove, He replaces with something more

life-giving.



---



Reflective Questions:



A. What has fasting revealed about the old patterns or identities I'm still

wearing that no longer align with who God says I am?



B. Where is God inviting me to intentionally put on the new – reshaping my

desires, decisions, or direction in this season?

Quick facts on Muslims in Saskatchewan



Saskatchewan 2015 population 1125400



est Muslim Population 17279



CNMM Networks: Saskatoon



Saskatoon has seen quick growth in its Muslim population over the past

5 years, which maybe as high as 5000 today. Islamic leaders have

focused specifically on this city , having twice already sent cohorts

of about 70 families to start mosques. There are now 7 Islamic centres

of worship and an ISlamic madrassah (school) located right next to a

Christian school.

Of particular concern recently is the number of young adults who grew up

in evangelical churches and converted to Islam. Most of these are young

women whowere wooed by Muslim man and became emotionally bonded.

Both prior to and after marrying, these women are known to convert to ISlam.

Pray for Somalia





Yasin has been a Christian for several years and has paid a high price

for it. Somalia is 99% Sunni Muslim and conversion from Islam is

illegal. Yasin did not publicise his faith, but he did share his belief

in Jesus on TikTok. This became public knowledge, and his voice was

recognised by his family. He was subsequently imprisoned, banned from

seeing his wife and children, and his taxi was confiscated.



In Somalia, the pressure comes primarily from family and clan. This was

also the case for Yasin. His family wanted him to come back to Islam.

But when Yasin refused, his father banished him from the family. Still,

Yasin remains strong in his faith. A brother in the diaspora holds

online Bible studies, and Yasin faithfully participates. This connects

him to God's worldwide church.



Yasin has a hunger for the Word of God. He still cannot keep his mouth

shut and continues to witness. Witnessing in Somalia usually doesn't

involve direct evangelism as that would immediately put lives in

danger. It's more often a matter of carefully sharing Jesus' teachings,

speaking from a place of love and forgiveness, and expressing hope.

It's a matter of carefully sharing a God you know, see, and love.



God is at work in Somalia. Much is being shared about the Christian

faith, especially online, and people are coming to faith. But all these

people face the same challenges as brother Yasin. Discovery means

exclusion from your family and clan (or worse). From that moment on,

your life is filled with uncertainty and danger.





How to Pray



Pray for Yasin's safety and livelihood and especially for his faith

and continued courage to show Jesus.

Intercede for Somali believers who are active online, that they may

share the Good News in truth.

* Praise God for the openness that exists among the Somali people in

Somalia and around the world.



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, ...) .

God's Goodness by James Banks



Deuteronomy 6:10-19



10 (Jos 24:13; Ps 105:44) Then it shall be when the Lord your God

brings you into the land which He swore to your fathers, to Abraham,

Isaac, and Jacob, to give you great and fine cities,

which you did not build,

11 and houses full of all good things which you did not fill,

and hewn cisterns which you did not dig, vineyards

and olive trees which you did not plant, and you eat and are full,

12 then beware lest you forget the Lord who brought you

out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

13 (Dt 10:20; Mt 4:10) You shall fear the Lord your God

and serve Him and shall swear by His name.

14 (Jer 25:6; Dt 8:19) You shall not go after other gods,

the gods of the people which surround you

15 (Dt 4:24; Ex 20:5) (for the Lord your God is a jealous God among you).

Otherwise the anger of the Lord your God will be inflamed against you

and destroy you from off the face of the earth.

16 (Ex 17:7; Mt 4:7) You shall not tempt the Lord your God, as you tempted

Him in Massah.

17 (Dt 11:22; Ps 119:4) You shall diligently keep the commandments

of the Lord your God, and His testimonies and His statutes which

He has commanded you.

18 (Dt 4:40; 12:25) You shall do what is right and good in the sight

of the Lord that it may be well with you and that you may go in

and possess the good land which the Lord swore to your fathers,

19 (Ex 23:28-30; Nu 33:52-53) to drive out all your enemies

before you, just as the Lord has spoken.



[10] And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the

land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to

give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not,

[11] And houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and wells

digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou

plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;

[12] Then beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought thee forth out of

the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.

[13] Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his

name.

[14] Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are

round about you;

[15] (For the LORD thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the anger of the

LORD thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of

the earth.

[16] Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.

[17] Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and his

testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.

[18] And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of the

LORD: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess

the good land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers,

[19] To cast out all thine enemies from before thee, as the LORD hath

spoken.



"Oh no!" That was my response upon opening a beehive and discovering the

colony had suddenly died. It had been a thriving hive with lots of honey.

I'd carefully maintained it throughout a mild winter and anticipated an early

harvest. But a cold snap in the warm weather had led to collapse.



I checked with local experts. "Many beekeepers lost hives this time," they

reassured me. Mild winters present challenges for bees, even healthy hives.

Bees fan their wings to maintain warmth in the hive in winter, but when the

weather warms briefly, they exhaust themselves seeking even more food. If

temperatures drop quickly, they don't have strength to keep warm. Their

"distraction" leads to destruction.



Even good things can become dangers when they turn us from what matters most.

Moses cautioned God's people about this after they left Egypt and before they

entered the land God was about to give them - a land with "houses filled with

all kinds of good things" that they "did not provide" (Deuteronomy 6:11).

"When you eat and are satisfied," Moses warned, "be careful that you do not

forget the Lord" (vv. 11-12).



Remembering God in our blessings helps us because He is the source of

"every good and perfect gift" (James 1:17). When we humbly respond to His

goodness by loving Him with heart, soul, and strength (Deuteronomy 6:5),

we find in Him the best blessing of all.



Reflect & Pray



What are you grateful for? How do all good things ultimately come from God?



Thank You, heavenly Father, for Your goodness

to me. Please help me to remember You today!

Words in Season Scripture Memory Tools



Week 1 Knowing God's Word Day 6 - Shielded by the Word



Proverbs 30:5



5 (Ps 12:6; 18:30) Every word of God is pure;

He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.



5 Every word of God is pure:

He is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.



A wife of ten years, betrayed by her husband's infidelity, declares that

she will never trust a man again. A teenage son says of his father, "I

can't depend on him anymore! Dad always talk big and makes promises,

but he never does what he says." A career woman, her reputation

undermined by gossip, leaves the church broken, and never returns.

Human beings are weak, volatile, unfaithful creatures; often we

break our word and hurt others in the process. But the Scripture

clearly assures us that God's Word is not like the word of man.

God always remains faithful to his Word, always fulfills his promises,

always does what he says he will do.

God's word is pure (or flawless), Proverbs 30:5 says. His Word

is not distorted with mixed motives or flawed by untruth. God's Word

is dependable, able to support and lift us up, able to speak

encouragement to us. His Word is a "shield" a protection for us

against the onslaughts of the Enemy, a place of refuge from the struggle

and confusion of daily life.

We live in a world that recognises no absolute truth. Morality,

values, relationships, ethics - every decision of life, it seems,

"depends on the situation." But in the midst of the confusion,

God interjects his Word - timeless, pure, trustworthy, reliable.

We can depend upon God's Word. We can turn to him to verify who we are

and the purposes for which we were created. We can find refuge in his truth,

and rest in the knowledge that whatever he says, he will do.



Application



a) In my own experience, how have I found God's Word

to be different from the word of men and women?



b) In what areas of my life do I need the assurance of the validity

and dependability of God's Word?



4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland



Genesis 30:43



The man became exceedingly prosperous and had many sheep

and female servants and male servants and camels and donkeys.



And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle,

and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.



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



When you are anxious



Phil 4:4-7



4 (Php 3:1; Ro 12:12 Rejoice in the Lord always.

Again I will say, rejoice!

5 (Jas 5:8-9) Let everyone come to know your gentleness.

The Lord is at hand.

6 (Eph 6:18; Mt 6:25-33) Be anxious for nothing, but in everything,

by prayer and supplication with gratitude, make your requests known

to God.

7 (Jn 14:27; Col 3:15; Isa 26:3) And the peace of God, which surpasses

all understanding, will protect your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.



4 Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.

5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication

with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding,

shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.



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.

Laws of Inheritance



Nu 36:1-12



1 (Nu 26:33) Then came near the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher,

the son of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh,

of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and these are

the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah, and Tirzah.

2 They stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest,

and before the leaders and all the assembly by the door of the tent

of meeting, saying,

3 (Nu 26:64-65; 14:35) "Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not

in the company of them that gathered against the Lord, in the company

of Korah, but died in his own sin and had no sons.

4 (Jos 17:4) Why should the name of our father diminish from among

his family, because he has no son? Give to us a possession

among the brothers of our father."

5 Moses brought their case before the Lord.

6 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

7 The daughters of Zelophehad speak right.

You will certainly give them an inheritance among their father's brothers,

and you will cause the inheritance of their father to pass on to them.

8 You will speak to the children of Israel, saying, "If a man dies,

and has no son, then you will cause his inheritance

to pass on to his daughter.

9 If he has no daughter, then you will give his inheritance to his brothers.

10 If he has no brothers, then you will give his inheritance

to his father's brothers.

11 (Nu 35:29; Ru 4:3-6) If his father has no brothers, then you will give

his inheritance to his closest kinsman in his family, and he will possess it.

And it will be for the children of Israel a statute of judgment,

as the Lord commanded Moses."



[1] Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of

Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh

the son of Joseph: and these are the names of his daughters; Mahlah, Noah,

and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.

[2] And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before

the princes and all the congregation, by the door of the tabernacle of the

congregation, saying,

[3] Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the company of them

that gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah;

but died in his own sin, and had no sons.

[4] Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family,

because he hath no son? Give unto us therefore a possession among the

brethren of our father.

[5] And Moses brought their cause before the LORD.

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

[7] The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a

possession of an inheritance among their father's brethren; and thou shalt

cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.

[8] And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die,

and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his

daughter.

[9] And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his

brethren.

[10] And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his

father's brethren.

[11] And if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance

unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it:

and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the

LORD commanded Moses.



Joshua to Succeed Moses



12 (Nu 33:47-48) The Lord said to Moses, "Go up into this mountain of Abarim,

and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.

13 (Nu 31:2; Dt 10:6_ When you have seen it, you also will be gathered

to your people as Aaron your brother was gathered.

14 (Ex 17:7; Nu 20:24) For you rebelled against My commandment in

the Wilderness of Zin when the congregation argued against Me.

You did not show My holiness at the waters before their eyes." (

These are the waters of Meribah in Kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin.)

15 Moses spoke to the Lord, saying,

16 (Nu 16:22) "Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh,

appoint a man over the assembly

17 (Dt 31:2; 1Ki 22:17) who will go out before them,

and who will go in before them, and who will lead them out,

and who will bring them in, so the assembly of the Lord

will not be like sheep who do not have a shepherd."

18 (Dt 34:9; Ge 41:38; Nu 27:23) The Lord said to Moses,

"Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit,

and lay your hand on him,

19 (Dt 3:28) and cause him to stand before Eleazar the priest

and before all the assembly, and command in their sight.

20 (Jos 1:16-18) You will put some of your majesty on him,

in order that all the assembly of the children of Israel will listen.

21 (Ex 28:30; Jos 9:14) He will stand before Eleazar the priest,

who will ask for him about the judgment of the Urim before the Lord.

At his word will they go out, and at his word they will come in, both

he and all the children of Israel with him, even all the assembly."

22 Moses did as the Lord commanded him, and he took Joshua,

and he caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest

and before all the assembly.

23 (Nu 27:19) And he laid his hands on him

and commanded him as the Lord spoke by the hand of Moses.



[12] And the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and

see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.

[13] And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy

people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.

[14] For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the

strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes:

that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.

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

[16] Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the

congregation,

[17] Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and

which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation

of the LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.

[18] And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in

whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;

[19] And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation;

and give him a charge in their sight.

[20] And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the

congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.

[21] And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask counsel for

him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at his word shall they go

out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of

Israel with him, even all the congregation.

[22] And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set

him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:

[23] And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as the LORD

commanded by the hand of Moses.

Scripture: Psalm 40:1-3



1 I waited patiently for the Lord,

and He turned to me, and heard my cry.

2 (Ps 63:1; 84:2) He also brought me up out of a horrible pit,

out of the miry clay,

and set my feet on a rock,

and established my steps.

3 (Ps 79:10; 80:5) He has put a new song in my mouth,

even praise to our God;

many will see it, and fear,

and will trust in the Lord.



[1] I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my

cry.

[2] He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and

set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

[3] And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even



---



David, the author of this Psalm was truly convinced that God would hear and

answer his prayer due to his own personal experience of God’s deliverance many

times over. In this Psalm, David wants to convey the idea of being desperately

trapped in abysmally dark circumstances. Whether the miry pit was of David's

making or of a conspiracy against him he knew to cry out to the Lord for

deliverance. God did for David what he could not do for himself. God set

David's feet on a solid, secure rock and established his steps.

In Psalm 40:4 David says, "Blessed is he who maketh the Lord his Trust."



David's imagery here is a picture of our salvation in Jesus Christ, who is the

Cornerstone for all who put their faith and trust in Him. Before salvation,

we are like David in the pit, bound by sin in a prison of despair and headed

for death and destruction in hell. But after salvation, we are like David with

his feet set upon a rock. When we call upon the name of the Lord, Jesus saves

us. He delivers us from our sin-filled past and transforms us into shining

new creations in Jesus Christ. He also promises our lives and futures

are secure in Him.



The result of this deliverance is a fresh response (a new song) arising from a

heart overflowing with gratitude. And lastly, when we spend time contemplating

our immeasurable indebtedness to the Lord, the natural response of

thankfulness is a fresh commitment to the Lord.

Quick facts on Muslims in Saskatchewan



Saskatchewan 2015 population 1125400



est Muslim Population 17279



CNMM Networks: Saskatoon



Saskatoon has seen quick growth in its Muslim population over the past

5 years, which maybe as high as 5000 today. Islamic leaders have

focused specifically on this city , having twice already sent cohorts

of about 70 families to start mosques. There are now 7 Islamic centres

of worship and an ISlamic madrassah (school) located right next to a

Christian school.

Of particular concern recently is the number of young adults who grew up

in evangelical churches and converted to Islam. Most of these are young

women who were wooed by Muslim man and became emotionally bonded.

Both prior to and after marrying, these women are known to convert to Islam.

Strength from Struggle by Patricia Rayborn



Roamns 5:1-5



Results of Justification



1 (Jn 14:27; Ro 4:5) Therefore, since we have been justified by faith,

we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

2 (1Co 15:1; Eph 2:18) through whom we also have access by faith

into this grace in which we stand, and so we rejoice in hope of the glory

of God.

3 (Jas 1:2-3; 1:12) Not only so, but we also boast in tribulation,

knowing that tribulation produces patience,

4 (Jas 1:12) patience produces character, and character produces hope.

5 (Gal 4:6; Php 1:20) And hope does not disappoint, because the love of God

is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.



Romans 5

[1] Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our

Lord Jesus Christ:

[2] By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand,

and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

[3] And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that

tribulation worketh patience;

[4] And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

[5] And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in

our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.



Jess was getting on in years when he first heard the children's folktale about

the boy and the butterfly. Right away, he understood the story's lesson on

gaining strength from struggle. In the tale, a boy is given a butterfly cocoon

but told not to open it. But as the cocoon slowly twists and shudders in his

hand, the boy can't resist using scissors to split it open so the butterfly

inside can escape.



Freed from the struggle, however, the butterfly falls to the ground and dies

without ever flying. "What happened?" the boy cries. Jess, after a long life,

understood instantly. "The boy prevented the butterfly from using the muscles

needed to grow strong and fly."



The children's lesson may be a fable, but it affirms the bracing biblical

truth taught by Paul to persecuted believers in Jesus in Rome: "We also glory

in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;

perseverance, character; and character, hope" (Romans 5:3-4).



Paul wasn't saying to celebrate pain or deny its heartbreak. He confirmed

instead that God will use life's troubles to build our character, growing

our hope in Him.



It's in His strength that God develops our trust in His overcoming power.

The butterfly was cheated from growing stronger to fly. But in Christ, we can

rejoice as struggles lift us with character to God our deliverer.



Reflect & Pray



What's your attitude regarding struggle?

How has struggle grown your trust in God?



As I face life's struggles, dear Jesus, I thank

You for building my character and trust in You.



How can we find joy amidst struggling?

Words in Season Scripture Memory Tools



Week 1 Knowing God's Word Day 5 - Learning by Heart



Ps 119:9,11



9 (Ps 38:6; 18:2) How shall a young man keep his way pure?

By keeping it according to Your word.

11 (Ps 42:5; 43:5) Your word I have hidden in my heart,

that I might not sin against You.



9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way?

By taking heed thereto according to thy word.

11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart,

That I might not sin against thee.



"His heart is not just in it," a gifted musician commented about the

pianist onstage. "He's here at the Orchestra Hall, playing for

thousands of people, an his technique is flawless, but something

is missing - his heart is just not in it."

The psalmist , in Psalm 119, draws a similar parallel. We "Keep our

way pure" through obedience of his Word, by ordering our lives according

to the commands of the Scriptures. But outward behaviour is not the only

essential factor in purity of life. The changes in our behaviour need to

come from the heart, from the inside out. Our "technique" for living

the Christian life may be flawless, but our obedience is founded

in heart motivation, something is certainly missing.

"I seek you with all my heart," the psalmist declares in verse 10.

Thus he can say in verse 11, "Your word I have hidden in my heart,

that I might not sin against You."

Often we refer to memorisation as "learning by heart" - and indeed

"by heart" is the biblical mandate for assimilating God's truth

into our daily lives. "By rote" or "By Mind" leaves us

intellectually overstuffed, yet spiritually starving.

When we try to apply the Word outwardly to our behaviour,

we end up in a tangle of legalism, a log "do list" by which

we hope to please God. But when we set our hearts toward God first,

then changes in our behaviour grow out of love for God and a deep

desire to serve him. Then we are truly loving and obeying God with

our whole hearts.



Application



a) In what ways have I tried to apply God's word to my behaviour

without having the truth firmly in my heart? What was the result?



b) How can I set my heart toward God and give myself more fully

to his Word?



c) What areas of my life need "purifying"? How can these verses

help me to "make my way pure"?



4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland



Haggai 2:7-9



7 (1Ki 8:11; Isa 60:7) And I will shake all the nations,

and they will come with the wealth of all nations,

and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord of Hosts.

8 (Isa 60:17) The silver is mine, and the gold is Mine,

says the Lord of Hosts.

9 (Isa 9:6-7) The glory of this latter house will be greater

than the former, says the Lord of Hosts. And in this place

I will give peace, says the Lord of Hosts.



7 and I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations

shall come: and I will fill this house with glory,

saith the LORD of hosts.

8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,

God's Help in Times of Temptation



James 1:12-18



Trial and Temptation



12 (Jas 2:5; 1Co 9:25; 2Ti 4:8) Blessed is the man who endures temptation,

for when he is tried, he will receive the crown of life,

which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

13 Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God,"

for God cannot be tempted with evil; neither does He tempt anyone.

14 But each man is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lust and enticed.

15 (Job 15:35; Ps 7:14) Then, when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin;

and when sin is finished, it brings forth death.

16 (Jas 1:19; 2:5) Do not err, my beloved brothers.

17 (Mal 3:6; Nu 23:19; Jn 3:27) Every good gift and every perfect gift

is from above and comes down from the Father of lights,

with whom is no change or shadow of turning.

18 (1Pe 1:23; Jn 1:13; Rev 14:4) Of His own will He brought us forth with

the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of His creatures.



12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried,

he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised

to them that love him.

13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God:

for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

14 but every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust,

and enticed.

15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin:

and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.

17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above,

and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness,

neither shadow of turning.

18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth,

that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

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

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

3 (Jos 22:17; Hos 9:10) Israel joined himself to the Baal of Peor,

and the anger of the Lord was inflamed against Israel.

to his brothers a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses and in the sight

of all the assembly of the children of Israel, who were weeping

before the door of the tent of meeting.

7 (Ex 6:25) When Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest,

saw it, he rose up from among the assembly and took a spear in his hand,

8 (Nu 16:46-48) and he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust

both of them through, the man of Israel and the woman through her belly.

So the plague was stopped from the children of Israel.

9 (1Co 10:8; Nu 16:49-50) Those that died in the plague were 24000.

10 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

11 (Dt 32:16; 32:21) "Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron

the priest, has turned My wrath away from the children of Israel,

because he was zealous for My sake among them, so I did not exterminate

the children of Israel in My zeal.

12 (Mal 2:4-5) Therefore say, 'I hereby grant him My covenant of peace.

13 (Ex 40:15; 1Ch 6:4-15) And it will be for him and his seed after him,

even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was zealous

for his God and made an atonement for the children of Israel.'"

14 Now the name of the slain Israelite who was slain with the Midianite

woman was Zimri the son of Salu,

a leader of a chief house among the Simeonites.

15 (Nu 31:8; Jos 13:21) The name of the Midianite woman that was slain

was Kozbi the daughter of Zur.

He was chief over a people and of a father's house in Midian.

16 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

17 "Be hostile to the Midianites, and defeat them,

18 (Rev 2:14) because they have been hostile to you with their wiles,

with which they have deceived you in the matter of Peor

and in the matter of Kozbi the daughter of a leader of Midian,

their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague because of Peor."



Numbers 25

[1] And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom

with the daughters of Moab.

[2] And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the

people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.

[3] And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor: and the anger of the LORD was

kindled against Israel.

[4] And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang

them up before the LORD against the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD

may be turned away from Israel.

[5] And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that

were joined unto Baal-peor.

[6] And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his

brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all

the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door

of the tabernacle of the congregation.

[7] And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw

it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;

[8] And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of

them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly. So the

plague was stayed from the children of Israel.

[9] And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.

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

[11] Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned

my wrath away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake

among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.

[12] Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:

[13] And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an

everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an

atonement for the children of Israel.

[14] Now the name of the Israelite that was slain, even that was slain with

the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a chief house

among the Simeonites.

[15] And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was Cozbi, the

daughter of Zur; he was head over a people, and of a chief house in Midian.

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

[17] Vex the Midianites, and smite them:

[18] For they vex you with their wiles, wherewith they have beguiled you in

the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of a prince of

Midian, their sister, which was slain in the day of the plague for Peor's

sake.
