Summary

In this episode of My Scripture Streak, Jeffery Downs reads and discusses Mosiah chapter 19. The chapter begins with the army of King Noah returning from their unsuccessful search for the people of the Lord. This leads to division and contention among the people, and a man named Gideon rises up against the king. Gideon pursues the king, but when the Lamanite army approaches, the king begs for his life and the people flee into the wilderness. The Lamanites pursue them and take some of them captive, while others choose to stay and perish with their families. Eventually, a deal is made with the Lamanites, and Limhi becomes the new king.

Takeaways

  • The consequences of following an awful leader like King Noah can be disastrous, as seen in the division and contention among the people.
  • Discernment is important in recognizing the true intentions of leaders and individuals.
  • Promoting the success of others and being trustworthy and credible are important qualities to strive for.
  • Taking risks can lead to greater success, but it is important to trust in the Lord and make wise decisions.
  • The story of Limhi and the deal with the Lamanites highlights the importance of perseverance and adaptability in difficult situations.

Hidden in my Heart Roxanne Rogiers Simply Scripture Screen & Scripture Dave Allen I’m Dave Allen, and I’m excited to share two of my passions with you - movies and God’s word. In each episode, I’m going to discuss one of my favorite movies. I’ll look at why I find it compelling and why you should consider watching it. I’ll try to point out some of the technical aspects of the film making process to help you learn what to look for in other great films. I’ll also look at a topic that the movie dwells on and see what the Bible has to say about that. Scripture Texts with Expositions and Sentence-prayers from Calvin's Commentaries on the Minor Prophets by John Calvin (1509 - 1564) LibriVox The prayers of John Calvin, however, have received little attention, as compared with the fame which crowns his theological writings. His commentaries upon Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, and the minor prophets were originally delivered in the form of lectures, each followed by appropriate petitions. Both lectures and prayers were extemporaneous. In his epistle dedicatory, prefaced to the commentary upon the minor prophets, and addressed to the King of Sweden, Calvin says: "Had it been in my power I would rather have tried to prevent the wider circulation of that extemporaneous kind of teaching, intended for the particular benefit of my auditory, and with which benefit I was abundantly satisfied." John Budaeus, in an- other preface, piously exhorts that we pray for the Spirit of God, that we may come to the reading of Scripture instructed by him. "And for this end," he says, "much help may be given us by the short prayers which we have taken care to add at the close of every lecture as gath Oh, My God Tajauta Jackson and Sharra Wells Welcome to our podcast “Oh, My God”.
