Deuteronomy 3

Deuteronomy 3  King James Version

1 Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.

2 And the Lord said unto me, Fear him not: for I will deliver him, and all his people, and his land, into thy hand; and thou shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon.

3 So the Lord our God delivered into our hands Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people: and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.

4 And we took all his cities at that time, there was not a city which we took not from them, threescore cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

5 All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars; beside unwalled towns a great many.

6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city.

7 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey to ourselves.

8 And we took at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites the land that was on this side Jordan, from the river of Arnon unto mount Hermon;

9 (Which Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion; and the Amorites call it Shenir;)

10 All the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, unto Salchah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

11 For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; behold his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbath of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.

12 And this land, which we possessed at that time, from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, and half mount Gilead, and the cities thereof, gave I unto the Reubenites and to the Gadites.

13 And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, being the kingdom of Og, gave I unto the half tribe of Manasseh; all the region of Argob, with all Bashan, which was called the land of giants.

14 Jair the son of Manasseh took all the country of Argob unto the coasts of Geshuri and Maachathi; and called them after his own name, Bashanhavothjair, unto this day.

15 And I gave Gilead unto Machir.

16 And unto the Reubenites and unto the Gadites I gave from Gilead even unto the river Arnon half the valley, and the border even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;

17 The plain also, and Jordan, and the coast thereof, from Chinnereth even unto the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, under Ashdothpisgah eastward.

18 And I commanded you at that time, saying, The Lord your God hath given you this land to possess it: ye shall pass over armed before your brethren the children of Israel, all that are meet for the war.

19 But your wives, and your little ones, and your cattle, (for I know that ye have much cattle,) shall abide in your cities which I have given you;

20 Until the Lord have given rest unto your brethren, as well as unto you, and until they also possess the land which the Lord your God hath given them beyond Jordan: and then shall ye return every man unto his possession, which I have given you.

21 And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Thine eyes have seen all that the Lord your God hath done unto these two kings: so shall the Lord do unto all the kingdoms whither thou passest.

22 Ye shall not fear them: for the Lord your God he shall fight for you.

23 And I besought the Lord at that time, saying,

24 O Lord God, thou hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, and thy mighty hand: for what God is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to thy works, and according to thy might?

25 I pray thee, let me go over, and see the good land that is beyond Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon.

26 But the Lord was wroth with me for your sakes, and would not hear me: and the Lord said unto me, Let it suffice thee; speak no more unto me of this matter.

27 Get thee up into the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold it with thine eyes: for thou shalt not go over this Jordan.

28 But charge Joshua, and encourage him, and strengthen him: for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which thou shalt see.

29 So we abode in the valley over against Bethpeor.

Ephesians 5 KJV

 

Ephesians 5  King James Version

1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;

2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savour.

3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;

4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.

8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.

11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,

16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

El arte de la oración es mejor que el arte de la aviación - La Voz Diaria

 

De Arroyos en el Desierto 2 (Sra. Charles E. Cowman)

No es la aritmética de nuestras oraciones, ni su cantidad; ni su retórica, ni su elocuencia; ni su geometría, ni su extensión; ni su música, ni su dulzura; ni su método, ni su orden, lo que a Dios le importa. La pasión del espíritu es lo que más vale.

No hay nada que nos haga amar tanto a alguien como orar por él, y cuando puedes hacerlo sinceramente por alguien, has preparado tu alma para la realización de todo lo que es amable y cortés hacia él. Arrodíllate diariamente en una solemne y deliberada práctica de esta devoción, orando por los demás con la misma formalidad, extensión, importunidad y fervor que lo harías por ti mismo; y verás que todas las pequeñas pasiones malsanas se desvanecen, y tu corazón se engrandece y se vuelve generoso. (William Lane)

Las oraciones de hombres y mujeres piadosos pueden lograr más que todas las fuerzas militares del mundo. La oración es más poderosa que un avión.

Porque oraste, Dios tocó nuestros cuerpos cansados ​​con su poder, y nos dio fuerzas para muchas horas difíciles.

En las que podríamos haber flaqueado si no hubieras sido nuestros intercesores fieles y leales.

Porque oraste, Dios tocó nuestros labios con brasas del fuego del altar, nos dio espíritu e inspiró, para que cuando hablamos, las almas cegadas por el pecado vieran; las cadenas del pecado se rompieron; los cautivos fueron liberados.

Porque oraste, los moradores de la oscuridad encontraron la luz; la buena nueva ha desterrado la noche pagana; El mensaje de la Cruz, tan demorado, por fin les ha traído vida, porque oraste

(Charles B. Bower)

ALGUIEN ORÓ

Letra: Louise J. Walker, Cephas, Bethy

Música: Cephas, Bethy

Manos extendidas sobre océanos y montañas,

ayudándome a seguir adelante cuando tenía miedo,

almas sedientas bebieron de la fuente vivificante,

alguien en algún lugar había orado con fervor.

Coro:

Alguien oró y mi carga se aligeró,

Alguien oró y mi camino se despejó,

las nubes se dispersaron y el sol brilló más,

Jesús, mi maravilloso Salvador, estaba cerca.

Mi fe flaqueó mientras luchaba contra la aflicción,

Jesús, el Médico poderoso, estaba allí,

sanimándome, dándome gozo en su presencia,

respondiendo a alguien. Oración inquebrantable

[Estribillo]

Almas para el Maestro que a lo lejos puedo reunir,

trofeos al fin a sus pies para ser depositados,

"Bien hecho", dirá Él, pero creo que responderé:

"Todo es por tu gracia, Señor, porque alguien oró".

[Repetir el estribillo dos veces]

Avión es más grande que avión.

A arte da oração é melhor do que a arte da aviação - A Voz Diária

De "Rios no Deserto 2" (Mrs. Charles E. Cowman)

Não é a aritmética das nossas orações, quantas são; nem a retórica das nossas orações, quão eloquentes possam ser; nem a geometria das nossas orações, por mais longas que sejam; nem a musicalidade das nossas orações, quão doce seja a nossa voz; nem o método das nossas orações, quão ordenadas possam ser — o que importa para Deus. A paixão do espírito é o que realmente importa.

Não há nada que nos faça amar alguém como orar por essa pessoa, e quando se consegue fazer isso sinceramente por alguém, preparou-se a alma para a prática de tudo o que é bondoso e cortês para com ela. Ajoelhe-se diariamente numa prática solene e deliberada desta devoção, orando pelos outros com a mesma forma, com a mesma duração, insistência e fervor com que oraria por si mesmo; e verá que todas as pequenas paixões maldosas desaparecerão, e o seu coração se tornará grande e generoso. (William Lane)

As orações de homens e mulheres piedosos podem realizar mais do que todas as forças militares do mundo. A arte da oração é maior do que a aviação.

Porque oraram,

Deus tocou os nossos corpos cansados ​​com o Seu poder,

e deu-nos força para muitas horas difíceis!

Nas quais poderíamos ter vacilado, se não tivessem sido,

nossos fiéis e verdadeiros intercessores.

Porque oraram,

Deus tocou os nossos lábios com brasas do fogo do altar,

deu-nos espiritualidade e inspirou-nos,

para que, quando falássemos, as almas cegadas pelo pecado vissem;

as cadeias do pecado foram quebradas;

os cativos foram libertados.

Porque oraram,

os que habitavam nas trevas encontraram a Luz;

as boas novas dissiparam a noite pagã;

A mensagem da Cruz, tão tardiamente recebida,

Finalmente trouxe-lhes vida -

Porque vocês rezaram

(Charles B. Bower)

ALGUÉM OROU

Letra: Louise J. Walker, Cephas, Bethy

Música: Cephas, Bethy

Mãos estendidas sobre oceanos e montanhas,

Ajudando-me a seguir em frente quando estava com medo,

Almas sedentas beberam da fonte da vida,

Alguém, algures, orou fervorosamente

Refrão:

Alguém rezou e o meu fardo ficou mais leve,

Alguém orou e o meu caminho tornou-se claro,

As nuvens dissiparam-se e o sol brilhou mais intensamente,

Jesus, o meu maravilhoso Salvador, estava perto

A fé vacilou enquanto eu lutava contra a aflição,

Jesus, o poderoso Médico, estava lá,

Curando-me, dando-me alegria na Sua presença,

Responder à oração infalível de alguém Oração

[Refrão]

Almas para o Mestre que eu possa reunir de longe,

Troféus enfim aos Seus pés para serem depositados,

"Muito bem", dirá Ele, mas eu penso que responderei:

"É tudo pela Tua graça, Senhor, porque alguém orou"

[Repete o Refrão duas vezes]

Prayer-craft Is Greater Than Aircraft!

From Streams In The Desert 2 (Mrs. Charles E. Cowman)

It is not the arithmetic of our prayers, how many they are; not the rhetoric of our prayers, how eloquent they may be; nor the geometry of our prayers, how long they be; nor the music of our prayers, how sweet our voice may be; nor the method of our prayers, how orderly they may be- which God cares for. Passion of spirit is what avails much.

There is nothing that makes us love someone as praying for him, and when you can do this sincerely for anyone, you have fitted your soul for the performance of everything that is kind and civil toward him. Be daily on your knees in a solemn, deliberate performance of this devotion, praying for others in such form, with such length, importunity and earnestness as you would for yourself; and you will find all little, ill-natured passions die away, your heart will grow great and generous. (William Lane)

The prayers of godly men and women can accomplish more than all the military forces in the world. Prayer-craft is greater than aircraft.

Because you prayed-
God touched our weary bodies with His power
And gave us strength for many a trying hour!
In which we might have faltered, had not you,
Our intercessors faithful been, and true.

Because you prayed-
God touched our lips with coals from altar fire,
Gave spiritfulness, and did inspire
That, when we spoke, sin blinded souls did see;
Chains of sin were broken;
Captives were made free.

Because you prayed-
The dwellers in the dark have found the Light;
The glad good news has banished heathen night;
The message of the Cross, so long delayed,
Has brought them life at last-
Because you prayed

(Charles B. Bower)

SOMEBODY PRAYED Words: Louise J. Walker, Cephas, Bethy Music: Cephas, Bethy Hands reaching out over oceans and mountains, Helping press onward when I was afraid, Thirsty souls drank at the life-giving fountain, Somebody somewhere had earnestly prayed Chorus: Somebody prayed and my burden was lighter, Somebody prayed and my path became clear, Clouds rolled away and the sunshine was brighter, Jesus my wonderful Saviour was near Faith flickered low as I battled affliction, Jesus the mighty Physician was there, Healing me, giving me joy in His presence, Answering somebody's unfailing prayer [Chorus] Souls for the Master that afar I may gather, Trophies at last at His feet to be laid, "Well done" He'll say, but I think I will answer, "It's all by Thy grace, Lord, 'cause somebody prayed" [Repeat Chorus Twice]
