Things in the Bible not really in the Bible...and a few surprises

Oops of the Day

Poor crippled Mephibosheth, orphaned son of Crown Prince, Jonathan, grew up in desolate LoDebar, with no pastureland or communication with the outside world.  

II Samuel 9:4 

Fact of the Day 

No!  LoDebar was just off the King’s Highway which met a major trade route between China and Europe.  It was also just 10 miles from the Sea of Galilee.

Things in the Bible not really in the Bible …and a few surprises

Oops of the Day

Jonathan’s son, Mephibosheth’s, feet were crippled.  So he had to use crutches to help him walk. 

II Samuel 4:4  –  II Samuel 19:24

Fact of the Day 

No!   He wasn’t just a cripple. His feet were paralyzed. How do we know?  When King David was running from Absalom, Mephibosheth did not “care for his feet”.  The only reason he would have to take special care of his feet is that, if they were paralyzed, he would not be able to feel whether he had accidentally hit something and cut them, etc.  And, being paralyzed, he would not have been able to use normal crutches because his feet would not have been able to detect when they touched the floor.  However, he could have used 3-footed stand-alone crutches and swung his feet between them.

Scripture for Tuesday, April 11 (4/11)

On By Inspirations By KatherynIn blessings, Daily, faith, good works, healing, Inspirational, power, prayer, ThanksgivingLeave a comment

The scripture for today, April 11, is Exodus 4:11 as found in the Old Testament of the Bible:

0-Mefiboset-KINDLE Medium“Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the Lord?”

This is a dynamic verse, for it helps answer questions of, “If God is so good, why did he allow me/my relative to become deaf/blind? or crippled, or deaf?”.

God gives each of us an assignment in life. Everyone has something to overcome. The challenge is for us to do it with the smile of faith on our lips.

Paul said in 2nd Corinthians 12:10, “For Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses….For when I am weak, then I am strong!” If God did not believe you or your relative or friend could handle your affliction, he would not allow you to have it. It’s almost as if the more affliction you have, the more faith God is showing in you. And the more we have to rely on God, the more faith we can show in God.

After all, 2nd Corinthians 6:1 says we are workers together with God. This is your assignment. What a privilege!
