I live in the 21^st century, with automobiles, internet, and smartphones. What could ever be the benefit of reading all those years of drudgery which the Israelites went through? After all, I am part of the New Israel, the Church of Jesus Christ. I am saved, baptized and born from above. I live and walk by the Spirit. What could I possibly find interesting in all those many cycles of failure, defeat, repentance, and restoration. <strong>Does God really want to speak to me through them?</strong> And if so, what does He want to say?</p> <br> <h2 style="margin: 0;padding: 0;display: block;font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Sans', Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size: 22px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: -.75px;text-align: left;color: #336699 !important;">What was God’s <span style="color:#B22222">Original Intent</span> for your life? “In the beginning…”</h2> <p> There was a Garden, where God walked and talked with man. It was relaxing. It was during the cool of the day (Gen. 3:8). I suspect it was every day. It met God’s desire for friendship and fellowship with mankind whom He had created and whom He loved. God anticipated Adam and Eve would choose fellowship, relationship and friendship with Him. <span style="color:#B22222">God enjoyed imparting His thoughts and sharing His heart with them on a daily basis.</span> <span style="color:#B22222">Life was perfect.</span></p> <p><span class="mcnImageContent" style="padding-right: 0px;padding-left: 0px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;"><img align="center" alt="" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/11df888970b20b1a63f63cf63/images/6e449f12-e6d8-438a-ae21-124758ba5053.jpg" style="width: auto; height:auto; max-width: 100%;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;" class="mcnImage"></span></p> <p>  </p> <h2 style="margin: 0;padding: 0;display: block;font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Sans', Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size: 22px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: -.75px;text-align: left;color: #336699 !important;">What was the original sin?</h2> <br> Satan offered the suggestion that we could figure things out on our own, apart from God. Maybe God didn’t really have our best interests in mind <span style="line-height:20.8px">(Gen. 3:5)</span>. Adam and Eve succumbed to this temptation. They embraced this sin, which resulted in destroying fellowship with their loving Heavenly Father.<br> <br> <span style="color:#B22222">Living independent from God</span> quickly brought forth jealously, envy, hatred, strife and murder. Rather than love ruling, anger ruled. Darkness ruled. Satan set up his rule in the hearts of men. Man’s heart became dark. The world became dark.<br>   <h2 style="margin: 0;padding: 0;display: block;font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Sans', Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size: 22px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: -.75px;text-align: left;color: #336699 !important;">An Old Testament model for miracle-working faith</h2> <br> Abraham is righteous, and becomes a pattern of faith for us all (Gen. 12-22). God speaks to Abraham, giving him promises, visions, and blessings. Abraham holds to these promises from God, in the midst of all odds, and becomes the Father of Faith (Rom. 4:11). Abraham models for us what a life of faith looks like. Faith pleases God (Heb. 11:6). We get to follow in Abraham’s footsteps, becoming children of faith.<br>   <h2 style="margin: 0;padding: 0;display: block;font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Sans', Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size: 22px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: -.75px;text-align: left;color: #336699 !important;">God creates “a people for Himself,” but they don't want to return to His original intent</h2> <p> The Israelites become the people of God, His chosen race to carry forth His purposes. However <span style="color:#B22222">they choose not to hear His voice (Deut. 5:23-26),</span> so are <u>offered laws instead</u> (Deut. 5:30, 31), which God knows they will never keep (Deut. 5:29; Gal. 6:13).<br> <br> The <span style="color:#B22222">law becomes our tutor to lead us to Christ (Gal. 3:24).</span> Jesus, of course, became the end of our efforts to establish our righteousness by keeping God’s laws, as our sins are dealt with through His cleansing blood which was shed at Calvary (Isa. 53:5). We once again are offered the opportunity to live by the Spirit, out of fellowship, friendship and companionship with our loving Heavenly Father (Rom. 10:4; Rom. 8:2-4; Gal. 5:18; 25)<br> <br> Not hearing and obeying God’s voice brings judgment into the Israelites’ lives (Deut. 28:1,15 NKJV). They repent, cry out for God’s mercy, receive it, and then once again experience His blessing. This blessing, in turn, makes them proud, and in their arrogance, they sin again, are judged, cry out for mercy, and are once again restored to a place of blessing. This pattern is repeated over and over and over again.<br> <br> It says to us that when you listen to God’s voice and obey it, you will receive His blessing. Do not let this blessing make you arrogant and proud and sin, because if you do, you step from His blessing into His judgment. Stay humble and meek (Matt. 5:5) so you can continue to live in God’s blessing.</p><p> </p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><p><span class="mcnImageContent" style="padding-right: 0px;padding-left: 0px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;"><img align="center" alt="" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/11df888970b20b1a63f63cf63/images/b2602239-aff7-49a8-bed7-1169772ad4b7.jpg" style="width: auto; height: auto; max-width: 100%;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;" class="mcnImage"></span></p> <p> </p> <h2 style="margin: 0;padding: 0;display: block;font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Sans', Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size: 22px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: -.75px;text-align: left;color: #336699 !important;">Would you like to know where the prophets fit into the reign of the kings?</h2> <br> Dr. Andrew Hardy will paint the story from beginning to end, showing where the prophets fit in and what was happening in the land with the kings and with the people as they were prophesying.

These pictures help you quickly master the overall material. In addition, you will be asked content-rich, revelation-based questions, helping you explore the major themes of Scripture and allowing you to watch God build these themes a piece at a time.<br> <br> You then get to compare your answers to these questions with our answers to the identical questions by referring to our book <em>Handbook of Answers</em>.<br> <br> So you begin by gaining your own first-hand revelation from the Word of God, and then you get to complement your revelation with the revelation we have received.

Before, I would ‘study’ the Word, searching for the meaning of a passage or read a commentary to find the principle being taught. Now I read Scripture with my journal open and ready to receive whatever God has to say because I now understand that God wants to speak specifically to me about the things He wants for my life - not some dry theological platitude.</p> <p style="line-height: 150%;margin: 1em 0;padding: 0;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #333333;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;text-align: left;"><strong>Using vision to read God’s Word is relaxing</strong> because you learn to anticipate hearing Him speak into your heart. Imagining pictures of the events in your mind as you read provokes the vision which I find <strong>especially true for the Old Testament</strong>. You learn to read slowly, without deadlines or goals because now you are receiving information straight from the Heart of the Father and you bask in His presence as you read.

The following verses describe this experience:<br> <br> "So we have the prophetic word made more sure, to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the <span style="color:#B22222">day dawns</span> and the <span style="color:#B22222">morning star arises in your hearts"</span> (2 Pet. 1:19).<br> <br> "Were not our <span style="color:#B22222">hearts burning</span> within us while He was speaking to us on the road, while He was <span style="color:#B22222">opening the Scriptures</span> to us?"
