Daily Manna from the Net for Monday, March 15, 2010 [1 Samuel 2:8-10]'He raises the poor from the dust, He lifts the needy from the ash heap To make them sit with nobles, And inherit a seat of honor; For the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S, And He set the world on them. 'He keeps the feet of His godly ones, But the wicked ones are silenced in darkness; For not by might shall a man prevail. 'Those who contend with the LORD will be shattered; Against them He will thunder in the heavens, The LORD will judge the ends of the earth; And He will give strength to His king, And will exalt the horn of His anointed.' 1 Samuel 2:8-10 NASB
Daily Manna from the Net for Thursday, December 31, 2009 [Mark 2:7-12]Why does this fellow talk like that? He's blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone? Immediately Jesus knew in his spirit that this was what they were thinking in their hearts, and he said to them, Why are you thinking these things? Which is easier: to say to the paralytic, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up, take your mat and walk'? But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins . . . . He said to the paralytic, I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home. He got up, took his mat and walked out in full view of them all. This amazed everyone and they praised God, saying, We have never seen anything like this! Mark 2:7-12 NIV UK [Anglicised]
Daily Manna from the 'Net Monday, March 15, 2010 [1 Samuel 2:8-10]Levanta del polvo al desvalido y saca del basurero al pobre para sentarlos en medio de príncipes y darles un trono esplendoroso. »Del Señor son los fundamentos de la tierra; ¡sobre ellos afianzó el mundo! Él guiará los pasos de sus fieles, pero los malvados se perderán entre las sombras. ¡Nadie triunfa por sus propias fuerzas! »El Señor destrozará a sus enemigos; desde el cielo lanzará truenos contra ellos. El Señor juzgará los confines de la tierra, fortalecerá a su rey y enaltecerá el poder de su ungido.»
