The Woman

Revelation 12:1
"And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars."

Great the Debt and Greater the Mercy

Matthew 18:26
"The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all."
(Matthew 18:26 KJV)

"Then his master summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me.  And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’"
(Matthew 18:32-33)

The Power of Prayer of Agreement

Matthew 18:19-20

"Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”

If, then, God already knows our needs, why do we pray to Him?
“God does not want our wishes to be made know to Himself, since He cannot be ignorant of them; but He wants our desire to be exercised in prayer, thus enabling  us to grasp what He is preparing to give. That is something very great indeed; but we are small and limited vessels for the receiving of it”
(St Augustine)

More precious than gold and silver

Ezekiel 3:3-4

"And he said to me, “Son of man, feed your belly with this scroll that I give you and fill your stomach with it.” Then I ate it, and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey.
And he said to me, “Son of man, go to the house of Israel and speak with my words to them."

"How sweet are your words to my taste,
sweeter than honey to my mouth!" (Psalm 119: 103)

Called to Glory through the Cross

"As they were gathering in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men,  and they will kill him, and he will be raised on the third day.” And they were greatly distressed."

"He called you to salvation when we told you the Good News; now you can share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ."
(2 Thessalonians 2:14 NLT)

The Bread of life

John 6:51

"I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.”

"Praise the Lord,  Jerusalem; Jesus feeds you with the finest wheat." (Psalm 147: 12. 14)
