    God knows all, there is nothing we can hide from Him. Nothing is so great that He can't fathom; nor so numerous that He can't count, or so small that He might miss it. Our world is sustained by His Word, all is in the palm of His mighty hand. All we need to do is trust and follow Him.
    Praise Yahweh the one true God. Revealed Triune as Father, Spirit, and Jesus the Son, each member fully God of which there is only one. 3 distinct Persons coexistant, coequal, and coeternal sharing 1 Divine Essence. Jesus lives and is God, Christ, King. Repent of your sin and believe in Him and be saved to eternal life!

    Also I just read 2 Samuel ch.1which reads, "As I happened by chance to be on Mount Gilboa, there was Saul, leaning on his spear." Now I just opened up to this page to write a devotional, which I do daily, according to the will of God. God choses where I will open up to and He decides what verse I write about, and before I came to this sermon, I happened to pick verse 6 for my daily devotional. 2 Samuel 1:6. WOW!! God never stops amazing me everyday ❤❤❤

    Exodus 2:3-10
    "3 When she could hide him( Moses😊❤) no longer, she took for him a basket made of bulrushes and daubed it with bitumen and pitch. She put the child in it and placed it among the reeds by the river bank.
    4 And his sister stood at a distance to know what would be done to him.
    5 Now the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river, while her young women walked beside the river. She saw the basket among the reeds and sent her servant woman, and she took it.
    6 When she opened it, she saw the child, and behold, the baby was crying. She took pity on him and said, " This is the one of the Hebrews' children."
    7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, " Shall I go and call you a nurse from the Hebrew women to nurse the child for you?"
    8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her,
    " Go."
    So the girl went and called the child's mother.
    9 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, " Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages." So the woman took the child and nursed him.
    10 When the child grew older, she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. She named him Moses,
    " Because, " she said, " I drew him out of the water."( Exodus 2:3-10 ESV Study Bible Speaking of "...water." from Exodus 2:10 b ESV Study Bible. It reminds me about John 4:13-14😊❤

      Who created molecules? God ( Genesis 1:1😊❤) or Jesus ( John 1:1-2😊❤) too . What God thinks matter is the subject matters. How are we form in our own mothers' womb?

  • @user-ee2vt7yi3m

    if god is sovereign over not just my actions but my own very will, how can I possibly sin?
    if not one molecule is rogue and my brain is made up of molecules, and my thoughts derive from my brain, then how could I possibly go rogue? I could understand free will in the calvinist sense as god allowing us to do what we're predisposed to as per our initial creation and early formative experiences, with minimal correction and discipline or failure due to it, but does this mean free will is when god restrains himself from interfering with us in a deeper way? what does this mean? that sin is a shallower relation to god, and sainthood is a deeper communion with god? but that we're always relating to god in some form of other?
    if god has control over whether I exist or not and preordains everything about my life how can I ever no matter how "bad" my behaviour be, be found to be sinning? aside from the previous guesses at how that relates, but why would god want us to have a shallower relation with him? I'm having a lot of moral trouble with "you were made to go to hell" rationality unless the people that go to hell prefer it to heaven naturally and it's like the hell of CS lewis' the great divorce, and therefore sin is a lack of being more complex and synchronistic and elegant and functional on a broader scale for more people/things, as opposed to a simpler definition of evil, to add to things as opposed to taking them away in a general sense for saintliness, to help people become "more" in a developed sense

      God is sovereign over our wills via predetermining what we will and then influencing it either actively whenever we do good as a Christian, or inactively by allowing the devil to influence us to do bad according to some end that God desires.
      God gets credit for all the good that we do, since goodness by his standard goes beyond the deed to our willing to do something for his glory, which we cannot will unless he makes his glory worthwhile to us above our own perceived benefits. We can therefore do realitvely outward positive deeds but God still counts them as not good when we did not intend to bring him glory through the deed. All we ever do is sin if we're not a Christian trusting in Jesus for the goodness that God demands from us.
      All sinfulness is ours because when we sin, although God planned that we would, it is not sinful for God to use his right to govern all details in the history of his creation while he does not actively move all the pieces around but uses secondary means to bring to pass that which he does not delight in but uses to provide for his reaction of some virtuous attribute and deed that is desirable. Sin on our part begins at the desire level firstly, and then when we commit whatever evil we will while delighting in it when we know we ought to do good and then we don't repent and embrace Jesus' sacrifice and resurrection which is the only means of our forgiveness, we are condemnable.
      We are only saved by willing to repent and place faith in Jesus and God must influence our will if we are ever to do so, yet God is not at fault if he chooses to withhold such mercy because he doesn't owe us forgiveness and he is perfectly in the right to instead give all what we deserve for the evil we have done and won't stop doing apart from him. That God chooses to save anyone and forgive them of evil makes him loving and worthy of worship.

      @@user-ee2vt7yi3m
      That's a misconception that you won't find in the Bible. Sinning is not going against God's will or plan, which no one can do. Sinning is actually lacking the desire to do what God delights in and tells you to do as you delight in him above all things. "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength," is a command, yet "Forgive us our sins as we forgive others," is also a command because Jesus told us to pray, which implies that God foreknows that we will sin or otherwise we would have no need to repent in our daily prayers. In fact, in order for Jesus to have covered the full penalty for all our sins by placing them on himself then every sin we commit must be preordained because otherwise there may be sins that were left out while he was on the cross, in which case if any one of our sins was not punished for in Jesus then we are lost.
      Romans 11:32 - "God has imprisoned everyone in disobedience so that he could have mercy on everyone."
      Isaiah 53:10-11 ‭NLT‬‬
      [10] But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands. [11] When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins.
      God's plans for us is his right, but us directly disobeying him or not caring his word and valuing him above all things is not our right as his creatures. Your rationality is not gonna excuse you on judgment day because even if God's ways don't make sense to you or seem right, he is the Judge over your soul.
      Beg him for faith and repentance that he requires from you and keep obsessively giving your attention to the Gospel which God may use to change your heart and illuminate your mind to understand and accept what you can't on your own. You are otherwise doomed for eternity with pride in your reasoning.

    How can you say that the casting of lots then, equates to the throwing of the dice today!? That's a fallacy. The lots were cast specifically for the purpose of decision making, and thats what the Scripture points to: the dice is thrown today for games, and in gambling. This is way out of kilter. Where's the balance⚖️?
    So is YaHuWaH's providence now the director in evil, and vanity, and man's greed? The Adversary is the counterfeiter who wants to ascend above the throne of YaH, and to sit in His place. That's the work of Satan. Has he ascended to that place in the heart? I pray not 🙏🏽
