It’s Worship Wednesday again! To simplify this weekly concept: Your prayer requests and praise reports are 100% welcome!
Who and what are you praying for?
Which prayers of yours have been answered? Please share some good news!
This week, I’ll ask you to continue praying for everyone who commented and/or was mentioned in all of our Worship Wednesdays. (To access prior Worship Wednesdays, please check my archives.)
My prayer requests: I have a family member (H) who has just entered hospice care. So, I request some powerful prayers of peace and healing for her and her daughter (J).
Thank you for dedicating time and energy to creating a better, more positive, and accepting world.
You are not alone and I look forward to praying for and with you.
May the rest of your life be the best of your life…
In Genesis 1:29-30, it reads:
Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground — everything that has the breath of life in it — I give every green plant for food.” And it was so.
Before the fall, there were no predators or carnivores. There was no violence or crime or blood sacrifices. All of that — and so much more — arrived due to the betrayal.
But the atrocities documented in the Bible do not change the fact that God did not want it this way. Humans — under diabolical influence — chose evil (and still do).
In the Book of Daniel, the King of Babylon wanted Daniel and other young male Israelites (the ones who would later survive the furnace) to eat what Babylonian boys eat.
Daniel refused to defile himself and negotiated a deal to ingest only water and vegetables for 10 days and then gauge if he looked worse than the Babylonian youths.
Daniel 1:15 says: “At the end of the ten days [Daniel and friend] looked healthier and better nourished than any of the young men who ate the royal food.”
In Isaiah 65:15, it’s promised:
I will create
new heavens and a new earth.
The former things will not be remembered,
nor will they come to mind.
In verses 23-25, we’re told:
They will not labor in vain,
nor will they bear children doomed to misfortune;
for they will be a people blessed by the Lord,
they and their descendants with them.
Before they call I will answer;
while they are still speaking I will hear.
The wolf and the lamb will feed together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox,
and dust will be the serpent’s food.
They will neither harm nor destroy
on all my holy mountain,”
says the Lord.
No carnivores, no hunters, no predators, and no prey. A true paradise.
