Hey, guys! Before I get started here tonight, I want to ask: how did I somehow become unable to post anything on here until I found a setup link enabling me to do so? I didn’t get any e-mails saying I was in violation of code — I hope I’m not violating anything, so I pray I follow the guidelines here and not upset anyone… but seriously, I think it’s fun to post good content, and I don’t want to offend anyone who reads this. Literally. Still, this passage is found in page 30 of my NKJV Bible, page 39 of my NASB Bible, page 67 of my VOICE copy, and page 65 of my Amplified Bible (Classic Edition) copy. But I’m sorry if anyone gets upset about something I’m posting on here; I just wish to communicate biblical truth in a tactful manner. And I don’t want any human rights violated, EVER.
I looked into one of my study Bibles for Zebulun’s borders, and it turned out to be landlocked in northern Israel — I wonder if the tribe now borders the Mediterranean today, for Jacob prophesied about this in verse 13. But I guess this prophecy was fulfilled near the end of Joshua’s life in the sixth book of the Bible. Spoiler alert, though, I don’t want to comment much of the conquest, for I’d rather say that God was NOT interested in wiping out any people group, and wouldn’t have done this, for Jesus said every tribe and nation will receive Him to some extent in Matthew 24:14. If any tribe is gone, though, that sucks, but at least there are some disciples from them in Heaven today, though 😇😇😇😇😇✝=💖 and for now, I won’t say anything else on a sensitive subject; I’d rather discuss these with my close friends. I can’t say anything to my family about it, though… for my brother thinks the RFID chip is good, as I said in the last post, so it’s unlikely I’ll be able to communicate much else to him in the future. I think his children deserve a glorious future, though 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼💅🏽🤝🏽👯♀️🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🐾💯💯💯💋👑 and I think their parents should receive Jesus right now. I’m like, “I implore you guys to see reason: the evidence that Mom’s trying to mislead everyone is incontrovertible. She doesn’t even believe human rights are for everyone…” But at least some of us do. I won’t say who, though, mostly because I don’t have an exhaustive list of people who I can talk to about literally anything… but anyway, I think it’s great that Jacob prophesied blessing on his sons here.
On Issachar, though, I think it’s pretty cool that he saw rest and paradise and decided to work pretty hard, first. And the Hebrew for this verse on rest and pleasant land… hang on, let me look for a minute… hmmm, this is interesting! First I’ll say that the Hebrew for rest is the same as in 1 Kings 8:56 about God giving rest to Israel on all sides in Solomon’s reign, and translating this into Greek, it has a feminine connotation. Plus, it’s the same as in Matthew 11:29 about limitless rest, so Issachar was pretty tenacious about being productive here on Earth, first. I know I want to do that and have fun throughout the whole thing 🏬 (sidenote: I looked through the emojis near this one and found a lot of stuff from Japan; I wonder if these emojis were all made there…) — I just know I don’t have many opportunities to do other things right now, for when I was trying to go full-time at work, doing this in a pandemic with a lot of outside work in the heat was not what I had in mind. I actually felt like I was getting killed because of the scheduling system. But I guess I shouldn’t have tried to change my availability to work on Sundays… I don’t know. I just know I wanted to go to Sedona to hike there with some friends, but they didn’t let me know soon enough because the whole thing was planned on such short notice. I wish they wouldn’t do this again, the shift scheduling guys. Maybe then I’d actually be more productive; I’m not getting paid anywhere over minimum wage, either. It’s cool that I have a big check coming from it this week, but I can’t seem to enjoy much of it anymore, and I heard they might implement the RFID chip thing in the future, so once that happens, I want to get the heck out of that field. I think I’d have more fun in YWAM anyway. (If you don’t know, YWAM is a Christian discipleship training organization (non-profit), and there’s a lot you can do! Plus, it’s open for all ages, so I can still have a chance! Thank God!! Who said you can’t have fun when you’re around my age or older? (I’m turning 30 in four and a half months.) I want to do nothing but serve Jesus and love others while doing it.) Oh, I should mention that a word that rhymes with rest here in Hebrew occurs only here throughout the whole Old Testament. And when translated into Greek, it has the same root word for “faith” in Hebrews 11:6. So this tells me a pleasant land can be trusted, and I think it speaks to all of us that any paradise or idyllic place can literally be Heaven on Earth, for Jesus made it so. Put that on a T-shirt and sell it! No seriously, get a shirt with the words “Hawaii is literally Heaven on Earth.” The only downside is that the wages aren’t so good, only like $10 an hour for its minimum. Don’t worry, though, Texas’s minimum wage is much worse, but Arizona and California actually have good state minimum wages! I just know a lot of people hate living in California, so I’m like, “Come here to AZ, if you can handle the heat” 😂😂😂😂😂🏜🥵 And don’t worry, it’s biblical to say that Hawaii makes you productive and trustworthy, too. I just know it’s very expensive, so I can’t go there right now. I’d LOVE to visit one day, though 🛵🏖🌅🌊⛱😌😇
Asher also borders Zebulun for a short distance when Joshua allots the land for his people after the conquest of Canaan, but my favourite verse of this group of nine is verse 18: “I wait for Your salvation, O Lord.” I think Jacob wanted Jesus to bring him into Heaven, and it’s actually fitting, for sadly, he was dying… it pains me to see someone much older than I in pain, and I wish I could bless them long enough for them to make it to the Rapture 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 but I have nothing else to say tonight, so if you want to let me know of a prayer you might have, you can do so at ron.outland4727@gmail.com! I’d really appreciate it, for I still have no requests in my inbox 😭😭😭 but you can let me know there, and I’ll write them down and tape them to my bedroom walls! I’ll see you in verses 22-28 where we see how Joseph and Benjamin were blessed! Later!
