Turtle

Turtle is a strange word but part of my asking the Lord, and here is in scripture in two spots I found out. This was not a word given to me from the Lord. I talk to the Lord every day and in scripture usually many times a day, I just don't type all or share the different questions I ask the Lord as I do this a lot. Also, with posting this word just to let you know what I do when I see things I feel are given me by the Lord. I have walked a long time and it has changed and grown over the years.

I will share a bit more about this on my other site and link it when I get it written. For now, there were just two scriptures that had the word turtle in it.

Song of Solomon 2:12 (KJV) The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;

Jeremiah 8:7 (KJV) Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the LORD.

I then looked up the Hebrew meaning of the word turtle

"probably the same as H8447; a ring-dove, often (figuratively) as a term of endearment:—(turtle) dove. (feminine noun)

When I saw the picture of the turtle, of course what popped into my mind and I sang:

"Two trutledoves and a partrige in a pear tree" hahaha so it made me think about times of Christmas. Then looking up the word in Hebrew saw the turtledove. So I was really surprised. So even picture answers I do get are tied to my looking up in the word when it has to do with something I ask the Lord.

Live Life

Interesting when those words came to me, I thought about people and their daily full schedules, especially with word and raising a family. I thought we do live life or is it life we live? haha So I entered it in and saw then the gospels Live Life was twice in the book of John.

John 6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

John 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

Of course I do believe in Yeshua (Jesus) so this was a great thing to hear where living and life are concerned.  We need to think daily about all He has done for us and it tends to with busy lives to get set aside.  Have a blessed day!

Seek The Lord

"seek the Lord"  the exact phrase is only in scripture 27 times.  This verse more stood out to me as a future event:

Zechariah 8:22 (KJV) Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the LORD. 

To my knowledge and what I am able to find only President Trump has gone to the Wailing Wall to pray.  I would expect many other nations for this to happen, and I was not able to find any in my internet search.

Stayed

 I chose the word Stayed of course Isaiah the verse

Isaiah 26:3 (KJV) Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. 

 What had happened is I was stayed as in focused on Hosea 2

Hosea 2:19 (KJV) And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies.  

I desired to know who this was as it stood out with the for ever thing.  I will explain it on daily walk what I found.
