The Father knows before you even Ask!

Ever had an experience where you received an answer as soon as you prayed? Well, I did.

Three years ago while I was working for Rabobank, I was heavily burdened about my job. I was getting tired with all those tasks, which I had to do, and also I did not have the peace of God to carry on. One by one, my friends were leaving the bank and there were more and more things piling up on my desk. One Sunday morning some time in early May 1998, while I was worshipping the Lord the pastor encouraged all of us in the congregation to take our problems and cast them to the Lord telling Him that they were His problems to handle.

I took all my worries and burdens of the job and placed them in the palm of my hands, grasped them and turn to throw them to God. As I was doing that, I told the Lord that I was tired of fighting, feeling miserable going to work and the burden of the job was just to heavy for me. I also told the Lord to do something for me with my job. And then I went home. In the taxi home, I told my wife what I just did during the service. She looked at me, gave me a smile and said that she knew my feelings and that she was expecting me to do just that after what the pastor said..

23 "And in that day you
will ask Me nothing. Most
assuredly, I say to you,
whatever you ask the
Father in My name He will
give you.
24 Until now you
have asked nothing in My
name. Ask, and you will
receive, that your joy may
be full. "

Weary...

9 "And let us not grow
weary while doing
good, for in due season
we shall reap if we do
not lose heart.
10 Therefore, as we
have opportunity, let us
do good to all, especially
to those who are of the
household of faith.

Those Dead Sea Scrolls

A testimony to the accuracy and the dedication of the people who hand-copied the Holy Scriptures over the years is one that was confirmed with the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in 1948. These very ancient scrolls were discovered by three herdsmen who were tending their sheep near a place in Israel called Wadi Qumran. They discovered the scrolls after one playfully tossed a rock into an opening in a nearby cliff. The young man called Mamud the Wolf heard the stone strike something that sounded like pottery. They lowered him into the opening and he discovered what would become one of the greatest archeological discoveries of all time. Hidden in the cave were ancient earthen jars which contained manuscripts and copies of the Bible. Eventually eleven caves were explored which yielded some 600 old manuscripts, 200 of which are Bible related. Of the 50,000 to 60,000 fragments discovered, manuscript fragments of every book of the Old Testament except Esther have been found in the caves.
The importance of this discovery is that some of the materials date back as far as 250 B.C. In comparing the ancient Dead Sea Scrolls to the Old Testament as we know it, we find our present Old Testament Scriptures to have only a few minor differences. Indeed, you can trust the accuracy of the Bible because God has inspired men of all ages to carefully preserve the Holy Scriptures.
The acceptance of the Holy Bible by people all around the planet, its long long history and its powerful positive effect on people's lives causes millions to humbly conclude that the Bible is the inspired Word of God.
