Selah

There is a site that I have just registered and I am hoping that in due time it will serve a great purpose. It is www.heartofjonathan.com . For now it is just a skeleton with only a couple of articles and an about page. To put it simply, it is a site for ministers to pray for and uplift one another. Hopefully, sooner than later, there will be a place where preachers can sign up, receive weekly emails, and share in the wonderful blessing of encouraging and being encouraged. For now, I am going to simply post two articles on this blog that I have written on heartofjonathan.com. Each post is on paticular verses in Psalms that end with "Selah."   Psalms 67:1 God be merciful unto us, and bless us; and cause his face to shine upon us; Selah. When I reflect on the times that I have prayed, I'm amazed at how often my petitions quickly began with a barrage of personal needs and desires. If such prayers could be formulated into one scripted scene it would be like this -

A Detailed Study On Ephesians 1

I Will not take long on explaining this post, since it is so lengthy already. Several months ago, I started a bible study on one Friday evening of the month for those who wanted to sink deeper into God's Word. At first, I thought I would study on Ephesians 6 concerning the armor of God, but after some time God shifted my focus to studying to all of Ephesians. This post is a compilation of all the studies we have had on Ephesians chapter 1. One thing that I will change for our future studies on Ephesians 2-6 is that, Lord willing, I will end every lesson with an applicable question. This, to my chagrin, has not been the case for this series. However, I have certainly tried to build a solid understanding by encouraging the reader to study other supportive passages as well. Please understand that every lesson will have a short summary of the previous lesson, since they were sent out in weekly/bi-weekly increments. If done once a week, this series should last for about 3 months. God
