Did you do something special? Did you get merried? Did you have a baby? Did you go to the Navy Pier to look for some bargain?
I wanted to do something special, I thought. I tried to read Psalm 11:11 or 111:11, but there is no verse 11 for the both chapters. I read Chapter 11 Verse 11 of the New Testaments Books.
Here are the lists of those verses
Matthew 11:11
Truly I tell you, among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet whoever is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
Mark 11:11
Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
Luke 11:11
“Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?
John 11:11
After he had said this, he went on to tell them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I am going there to wake him up.
Acts 11:11
Right then three men who had been sent to me from Caesarea stopped at the house where I was staying.
Romans 11:11
Again I ask: Did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel envious.
Hebrews 11:11
And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing age, was enabled to bear children because she[b] considered him faithful who had made the promise.
Revelations 11:11
But after the three and a half days the breath[b] of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them.
Which verse do you like the best? It is said “All Scripture is God breathed, and is useful for teaching…” so every word in the Scripture is very important for us. But I’d like to choose Roman 11:11. It is very interesting verse.
Israelites have been persecuted with the jealousy of many counties and people, because they were chosen by God and special nation. There are many persecution stories in the Bible. The great Jewish persecution by Hitler in Germany in recent years we cannot forget.
In accordance with the Roman 11:11 because of the Israelites” suffering, salvation has come to me and the Gentiles. All Israelites would have believed Jesus as Messiah if He was born in the Palace as the Ruler of Jews. Then, what would have happened for us, Gentile people? Jesus would be the Lord for Israelities God but not for Gentile. God knows all these things from the beginning of the world. So God’s plan is perfect. I’d give “Thanks” to Israelite and pray for their salvation.
The Lord God of Christian is omnipotent and omnipresent. The Lord God of Christians is not only for Israelites but also for the whole nation. He is the Creator of the whole universe. Pray for the salvation of the whole nation.
This is Hiroko’s special things on 11-11-11.
Hiroko has been busy since the beginning of October, because Hiroko has been making Thanksgiving and Christmas tablecloth for her daughter as a birthday present.
This is a part of the table cloth. It takes lots of time to make these runners.
