Good Morning,

The Bible we have before us today is a collection of stories about mankind and his/her relationship with the Lord God. Have you ever wondered why the people in the Bible like King David, Abraham, and Lot are not made to look like gods having lived a perfect life? The reason for this is to give hope to those of us who follow behind them through careful study and our spiritual eyes and ears open (Romans 15:1-4). For the next how ever many days I am going to talk about the people of the Bible and show that they were simply people in a covenant relationship with the Lord. I invite you to come along with me as we learn what the Lord will have us to know.

My encouragement for you today is that you will spend some time in prayer and the reading of the Word. It will be my goal to bring to you a study in small digestiable parts. I firmly believe that the Lord will open doors that have been closed for so long that they have become mythes and legend.

Father,

Encouragement is like fresh water, fresh bread, and renewed fire for our soul. I pray that you will empower me to write what you will have people to know. I give my life and my time and energy for the purpose of the Kingdom.

I.H.S. MK
