Re: Scripture of the Day
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Friday]
for no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as Christ also the church; Ephesians 5:29 [American Standard Version; ASV]
The Bible shows that a husband “who loves his wife loves himself.” This is because a man and his wife “So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.,” as Jesus pointed out at (Matthew 19:6 [ASV]) So they must limit their sexual interests to each other. (Proverbs 5:15-21; Hebrews 13:4) They can do this if they show unselfish concern for each other’s needs. (1 Corinthians 7:3-5) Noteworthy is the reminder: “for no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it” Husbands need to love their wives as they do themselves, remembering that they are accountable to their own head, Jesus Christ.—Ephesians 5:29;1 Corinthians 11:3.

Re: Scripture of the Day
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Saturday]
The apostles gathered around Jesus and reported to him all the things they had done and taught. And he said to them: “Come, you yourselves, privately into an isolated place and rest up a little.” For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure time even to eat a meal. So they set off in the boat for an isolated place to be by themselves. Mark 6:30 – 32 [New World Translation Revised: NWTr]
Husbands also do well to note that Jesus always showed consideration for his disciples. He took into account their limitations and physical needs. When they were tired, for example, he went to an isolated spot so they could rest up a little. Wives too deserve thoughtful consideration. The Bible describes them as “a weaker vessel” to whom husbands are commanded to assign “honor.” Why? Because both husbands and wives share equally in “You husbands, in the same way, continue dwelling with them according to knowledge. Assign them honor as to a weaker vessel, the feminine one, since they are also heirs with you of the undeserved favor of life, in order for your prayers not to be hindered.” (1 Peter 3:7 [NWTr]) Husbands should remember that it is faithfulness, not whether a person is male or female, that makes one precious to God, per Psalm 101:6 “I will look to the faithful ones of the earth, So that they may dwell with me. The one walking in blamelessness will minister to me..” [NWTr]

Re: Scripture of the Day
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Sunday]
For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members. Romans 7:22 – 23 [American Standard Version; ASV]
First, we have an ongoing struggle against our fleshly tendencies. The apostle Peter exhorted us, “(be) as free (peo0le), and not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.” 1 Peter 2:16 [ASV].
Second, We have a battle to wage against this world under demon influence. Satan, the Devil, the ruler of the world aims his missles at us in an attempt to break our loyalty to Almighty God (YHWH) and his Son, Jesus (Yeshua) per, “Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” Ephesians 6:11- 12. [ASV]. He seeks to enslave us by tempting us to give in to his corrupting influence. He does this by making his world seem attractive, alluring. But remember is anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him, because everything in the world – the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the showy display of one’s means of live does not originate with the Father, but originates with the world. (1 John 2:15 – 16).

Re: Scripture of the Day
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Monday]
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god. 2 This one was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into existence through him, and apart from him not even one thing came into existence. What has come into existence. John 1:1 – 3 [New World Translation Revised: NWTr]
Almighty God (YHWH), the Creator of the universe, does things in an organized manner. His first creation was his only-begotten spirit Son, who is called “the Word” because he is God’s principal spokesman. The Word has served Jehovah for ages. He was called Almighty God’s (YHWH’s) master worker at Proverbs 8:30, “Then I was beside him as a master worker. I was the one he was especially fond of day by day; I rejoiced before him all the time;” [NWTr]. A little over 2,000 years ago, God sent the Word to the earth, where he faithfully did his Father’s will as the perfect man Jesus Christ. Per John 1:14, “So the Word became flesh and resided among us, and we had a view of his glory, a glory such as belongs to an only-begotten son from a father; and he was full of divine favor and truth. [NWTr].

SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Tuesday]
Then I was beside him as a master worker. I was the one he was especially fond of day by day; I rejoiced before him all the time; Proverbs 8:30 [New World Translation Revised: NWTr]
During his prehuman existence, God’s Son served loyally as His “master worker.” By means of him, Jehovah brought into existence many millions of other spirit creatures in heaven, per Colossians 1:16, “because by means of him all other things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All other things have been created through him and for him.” [NWTr]. Regarding such angels, one Bible account informs us: “A thousand thousands kept ministering to [Jehovah], and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him.” (Dan. 7:10) God’s numerous spirit creatures are referred to as the well-organized “armies” of Jehovah.—Ps. 103:21

Re: Scripture of the Day
John 8:42 Jesus (Yeshua) said to them, " Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me." (Authorized King James Bible; AV).
Jesus (Yeshua) said he comes from God. The flesh cannot be speaking for the flesh was created. So Jesus (Yeshua)'s spiritual being came from God. Jesus (Yeshua) did not send himself, he did not come on his own, but before he was on earth, God sent him. Jesus (Yeshua) was sent by God into the world, so Jesus (Yeshua) is before the world with God. He is referred to a Pr. 8:22-31, “The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. 23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. 24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. 25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: 26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. 27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: 28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: 29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: 30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him; 31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

Re: Scripture of the Day
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Thursday] And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. Micah 4:2 – 3 (Authorized King James Bible; AV) Jehovah God is uniting people from many religious backgrounds by teaching them the truth and by teaching them to love one another. Thus, you can recognize practicers of true religion by the way they care for one another, per John 13:35, “But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.” [AV] Jehovah God is uniting all sorts of people by means of true worship.—Psalm 133:1True worshippers base their faith and their way of life on the Bible. 2 Timothy 3:16 shows that, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” [AV] They also honor God’s name, “That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth” (Psalm 83:18, [AV]). And they advocate God’s Kingdom as the only hope for mankind. (Daniel 2:44) They imitate Jesus by letting their “light shine,” doing good to their neighbors. (Matthew 5:16).

Re: Scripture of the Day
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Friday]
But, these things, brethren, have I transferred unto myself and Apollos, for your sakes, that, in us, ye might learn the lesson––Not beyond the things that are written…! that ye do not puff yourselves up, individually, for this one against that. 1 Corinthians 4:6 (Rotherham Bible)
The dreams recorded in the Bible form part of God’s written revelation to mankind. Concerning that revelation, 2 Timothy 3:16, 17 states: “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works..” (Authorized King James Bible; AV).
The Bible ‘completely equips’ us in that it reveals all that we need to know about God, his qualities, his moral standards, and our place in his purpose for the earth. Hence, God no longer uses dreams to convey messages to humans. If we want to learn about the future and God’s will for us, we need “not go beyond the things that are written”—that is, written in the Bible. Moreover, virtually all mankind can access this book and study its many revelations from God, including dreams.

Re: Scripture of the Day
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Saturday]
In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters. Daniel 7:1 (Authorized King James Bible; AV)
God has conveyed important messages to people in a variety of ways. In Bible times, he occasionally used dreams. But these were not everyday vague, illogical dreams. Dreams from God were vivid and coherent, and they had a definite message. For example, in a dream, the prophet Daniel saw a series of beasts that symbolize political empires from Babylon down to our time. (Daniel 7:1-3, 17) By means of a dream, God told Joseph of Nazareth, the adoptive father of Jesus, to flee to Egypt with his wife and child. As a result, Jesus escaped death at the hands of vicious King Herod. When Herod died, God disclosed his death to Joseph by means of a dream, at the same time instructing him to return with his family to their homeland.—Matthew 2:13-15, 19-23.

Re: Scripture of the Day
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Sunday]
For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. 2 Peter 2:21 (Authorized King James Bible; AV)
Many of the dreams and visions recorded in the Bible were prophetic—that is, they foretold future events. By recording these prophecies, the Bible writers put their credibility—and that of the Scriptures—on the line. Did their writings prove to be accurate? Consider an example—the vision found at Daniel 8:1-7, recorded toward the end of the Babylonian Empire.
Using symbolism, the prophecy involved a ram and a male goat that overthrew the ram, trampling it down. Daniel did not have to guess at the meaning of the vision. An angelic messenger of God declared: “The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia. And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.” (Daniel 8:20 - 21, [AV]) History confirms that Medo-Persia succeeded Babylon as a world power. Then, some two hundred years later, Medo-Persia fell to Alexander the Great of Greece. Such amazing accuracy characterizes Bible prophecy, including prophetic dreams. This fact alone sets the Bible apart from all other sacred books, making it worthy of our confidence.
