This species has so gotten away from Him, even re: Tower of Babel – Nimrod with 2 or so fellow men standing near him watching quietly: (Nimrod) take his bow and shoot arrows into the sky, deeming to (ugh!) - wage war against the inhabitants of the heavens, hence, Nimrod is the prototype of a rebellious people, his name being interpreted as "he who made all the people rebellious against God". Huh, sigh, UNBELIEVABLE. Here’s something for this species – it is we that per our free will usage, that forced God’s hand to place / put Lucifer on (temporary) parole (until the 1st of 2 – yet to come judgment day’s). And if that wasn’t enough, this species has given, exhibited itself as a audience, mere entertainment for Lucifer, per this species free will usage.

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the LORD. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways And My thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9 NASB

Do I lead or does God lead when it comes to binding and loosing?

Below is Matthew 16:19 in a number of versions. Some versions make it look like I lead in the binding and loosing process and some make it look like the Lord leads. Prayerfully meditate on these and journal about it and see what the Lord tells you.

In these versions it looks like I lead
• KJV - And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
• NKJV - And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
• New American Standard 1977 - I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

In these versions it looks like God leads
• New American Standard Version - I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven.
• Young’s Literal Translation - I will give to thee the keys of the reign of the heavens, and whatever thou mayest bind upon the earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever thou mayest loose upon the earth shall be having been loosed in the heavens.
• International Standard Version - I will give you the keys to the kingdom from heaven. Whatever you prohibit on earth will have been prohibited in heaven, and whatever you permit on earth will have been permitted in heaven.

Personal journaling application
God, who do You prefer leads when it comes to binding and loosing? You or me, or doesn’t it make any difference?

How Big Is Your God?

February 20, 2024
by Pastor Chuck Swindoll
Scriptures: Job 38:1–41
When God finally does speak, He answers Job out of a whirlwind. Suddenly, there He is! Wouldn't it have been great for us to have been there? Whoosh! Lightning, loud thunder, mighty winds blowing dark clouds across the heavens, and out of nowhere God bursts on the scene. It must have taken Job's breath away when the Lord "answered Job out of the whirlwind" (Job 38:1).

Many years ago (I was no more than ten years old) on a still and silent morning, long before dawn, I was fishing with my father. Our little fourteen-foot fishing boat was sitting on a slick, in a small body of water just this side of Matagorda Bay. We both had our lines in the water, and neither of us was saying a word. My dad was at the stern by the old twenty-five-horsepower Evinrude, and I was up near the bow of the boat. It was one of those mornings you could flip a penny onto the surface of the water and then count the ripples. It was silent as a tomb—almost eerie.

Suddenly, from the depths of the bay near the hull of our boat, comes this huge tarpon in full strength, bursting out of the water. He does a big-time flip in the air, then plunges with an enormous crash back into the bay. I must have jumped a foot off my wooden seat, shaking with fear. My dad didn't even turn around. Still watching his line, he said quietly, "I told you the big ones were down there."

That's Elihu's message. He is here, Job! Our awesome God—all glorious above. "Job, listen. He's here. He isn't always silent. When He speaks there is no voice like His." Job's view of God may have been enlarged, thanks to his friend's final remarks.

When your God is too small, your problems are too big and you retreat in fear and insecurity. But when your God is great, your problems pale into insignificance and you stand in awe as you worship the King.

How big is your God? Big enough to intervene? Big enough to be trusted? Big enough to be held in awe and ultimate respect? Big enough to erase your worries and replace them with peace?

Remember: the more you know God, the bigger He becomes.
