As we look at the 5th church in the book of Revelation we come to the church in the city of Sardis. Very interesting Church, they were not in similar surrounding threats or sinful influences as other churches, but they had lacked what I came to agreement with when Matthew Henry categorize this church as “hypocrites” and I share further on that. I also share some insight on “one’s name being blocke...

As we look at the fourth church in Revelation we come to the church in the city in Thyatira. They had excelled in many good works such as love, service, faith, and patient endurance. These works was not just good fruit in their life, it had increased since it’s Genesis. There were different people in the church doing different things, some good, some bad to a different degree. As we study this chu...

As we get three weeks into looking at the seven churches the apostle John wrote to, we come to the church in the city of Pergamum. Now there was good fruit in their lives, but there was some bad compromise as well. Lots of good commentary that I found, especially for verse 16. We also look at what did Jesus mean by a “ white stone, hidden manna and a new name ?” Josiahmovius12@yahoo.com Bible port...

Well beloved, today is going to be a little bit of a longer episode. You’re like; “ bro Josiah it’s 3 verses what the heck .” My goodness I know right? 😭 guys there is so much to unpack and way too much good stuff I came across that I had to share in today’s episode. As we look at the second church here in Revelation, the church in Smyrna was at the particular time; pretty grounded in their sanct...

As we start a new series on looking at the 7 churches in Revelation, today, we will just be looking at the church of Ephesus, also known as the same Church that Paul wrote to in his day; known as the book of “ Ephesians .” So what does it mean to “ forsake your first love ?” Have I done that? Who are the Nicolaitans? What are the seven stars and the seven lamp stands? All great questions and I wil...

As we finish our study through Psalm 119, there are some unique Hebrew words the psalmist uses as he continues to seek God with all of his heart, with a deep intentionality. Got some good commentary today, especially at the end ! 🫢 at the end of today’s episode I share five points we can take with us as we finish this long and enjoyed study through Psalm 119. Josiahmovius12@yahoo.com John Pipers...

As we come near the end of this long, incredible, in-depth study through Psalm 119; seems to be in these eight lines, some refinement in the psalmist’ soul by remembering God’s testimonies. He’s also holding fast to rational ways. He can love God through many different ways. Josiahmovius12@yahoo.com

I thought that I could add 2 polls in my “Psalm 119:153-160 study” but I couldn’t. This episode is about options that you guys would like to talk about next. If you don’t have Spotify and would like to answer here is my email just down below 👇 Josiahmovius12@yahoo.com

The writer starts with the next Hebrew letter as he continues this acrostic with a new set of eight lines (otherwise known as a new stanza.) Although it starts with another cry of agony, it is still the case for the Psalmist; so it is the case for some of the season we may go through with YAHWEH. God willing just 2 episodes left until we finish this long and incredible study through Psalm 119 ! :)...

In these next eight lines, the Psalmist shows us more of his heart cry for a victory in his trial. I share yet again, some of my theology behind how to correctly categorize “ an idol in your heart ” that we hear so flippantly used in the church today; we will get into that when I dive into verses 145-146. There seems to be a confidence growing in the Lord in these next eight lines from the Psalmis...

In these next 8 lines the Psalmist speaks a lot about righteousness. He continues to plead with the Lord his faithfulness in many different areas in his life, while continuing to share the afflictions of his heart. A heavy dose of commentary; some very insightful stuff in today’s episode and word studies :) Josiahmovius12@yahoo.com Bible project video: https://youtu.be/HCLuq_5o7_o?si=g46XJLeD3wTrq...

In today’s next eight lines, the Psalmist tells us the glories of God’s Word, continues to along for God’s favor for his continued trials; and seems to give a little bit more insight on the particular suffering he continues to go through. Some interesting Hebrew words we will dive into like verse 129 ‘ wonderful ’ or in 130 ‘ light ’ or even ‘ iniquity ’ seen in 133. Also, what does “ the simple ”...

In this 16th episode of going through Psalm 119, the writer continues to plead for deliverance from those who continue to pursue him. He prays a very eye-opening verse in verse 126 that I would have never thought I would come across in scripture. AND at the beginning of today’s episode for those of you who are just joining the study through psalm 119, I go over a little recap of what we’ve read an...

As we continued to study through Psalm 119, the writer continues to correspond “the wicked” with those who opposed that which is clear that they need to follow from The Lord. Some interesting Septuagint (otherwise known as the LXX) info we get into. Interesting commentary earlier on by my favorite Derek Kidner. And also new commentary by William MacDonald I found!

This is part two of Psalm 119:105-112. The ending of part one cut out when I was preaching on verse 112, so here is the rest of verse 112 to the end! I was trying to mute my microphone because I was coughing that wasn’t working so then the episode ended on its own and I was very confused lol. Oddly enough; the audio on this one seems to be a lot better than part 1, please pray that I can figure th...

At the end of this episode, I thought I muted my microphone so that you guys would not hear me cough so I apologize, but this is part one of the next eight lines the writer writes. This episode goes through only part of verse 112 and then part 2 is the rest! Before I started this episode, I tested my microphone to see if the quality would be better and it was working and then I listened to it at t...

Realizing now after listening to this message that the audio is really bad:/ I apologize you guys. I will try to sit down soon and figure out what happened; but in these next eight lines, the writer takes a different turn and how he prays and it is quite interesting. The Lord has also brought some new tools my way to add to my studies here on Movius ministries, I really hope you come and listen; i...

In these next eight lines, the psalmist continues to plead his heart before the Lord as he talks about God’s word, how it is “ firmly fixed ” in the Heavens, he continues to reassure himself by looking at previous witnesses that God had helped because the Psalmist sees himself in those same situations compared to those whom The Lord helped. And then in the end, he sees that his obedience is not ne...

In verses 81-88, the writer starts to show us more of him experiencing the well-known Proverb, Proverbs 13:12; “ hope deferred makes the heart sick but a desire for filled as a tree of life.” He writes what some to know as “Hebraic poetry” in reference to his trials; but again, and again he reassure himself of seeing God’s continued direction in his life and His obedience to it. Josiahmovius12@yah...

Through part 10 in this series of Psalm 119 the writer is continuing to experience Proverbs 13:12, his hope has been prolonged yet again as people continually deride him for his righteous living before God. There is continual reassurance he gives himself through the season amidst the lies the Israelites accuse him with because of what Yahweh has taught him through discipline, discernment, and pers...

In these next eight lines, the writer brings a heart posture of gratitude to the Lord for many things that happened to him as he looks back in his life. He looks at afflictions that happened to him by the proud insulting him, pain by falling in the sin, but seeing the joy from it all. How can we do the same? Let’s dive in together and see :)

Through verses 57-64 the wicked continue to deride the psalmist, he’s longing for God’s deliverance, reassuring himself that he is on the right path amidst delay and trial, and continuing to remember God’s faithfulness to those who walk this narrow path. Josiahmovius12@yahoo.com

In versus 49-56 the Psalmist is continuing to experience delay in the promises God has personally given him. He continues down the paths God has told him to take, holding onto God’s law, but continues to see the proud “deride” him. He then sees the pain in his heart of those who continue to disobey God and see the judgment coming to them and is sorrowful over it if they don’t repent. Verse 56 the...

Hey guys, this week has been a little bit crazy for me and I’m not able to upload an episode for Tuesday. Looking forward to continuing our study through Psalm 119 next Tuesday if God is willing! Love you all so much!💙

How do we pray and react when we see God’s personal promises to us or through his word be delayed the writer continues to battle those who oppose him for the narrow path that he follows. How does he respond to God in all of this? Josiahmovius12@yahoo.com Bible project video for the word “faithfulness”: https://youtu.be/HCLuq_5o7_o?si=hOV8K0pYTW7gJmnQ
