About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible:

About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible: I was uncertain of how to accomplish this, mindful of Revelation 22:18-19, which says that nobody is to add to, or to take away from what was written in the Bible. After lots of prayerful contemplation, the Lord had it on my heart that I’m not to change the meaning of what is written in the Bible. He has also shown ways to add to people’s understating of that meaning, without altering the meaning, by putting that info within [brackets]. This is primarily accomplished with the KJV Bible and lots of prayers, but at times, BibleGateway.com, Biblehub.com, NIV Bible, Webster Dictionary, and other internet resources, as needed.

About Understanding the Bible:

Understanding the Bible: After reading Isaiah 28:10 many times over the years and not totally understanding it, it recently became apparent to me that the Lord God has this passage as the means for understanding the Bible. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little. Isaiah 28:10 KJV. Being prayerful about this passage, and looking up 'precept' in the Webster's Dictionary, it gave this passage a whole new meaning, once 'commandment' is substituted for 'precept'. Within brackets are additional words the Lord had on my heart to aid in understanding the meaning. For commandment must be [built up] upon commandment; commandment upon commandment; line upon line, line upon line; [developing understanding] here a little, and there a little.

The Table Format:

The Table Format: I was overwhelmed with how to explain the process for determining if someone had leprosy in Leviticus 13, which seemed very complicated. After praying, "Lord, if this is difficult for me to understand after reading it many times, how can this be explained to others?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was for me to put it into a vertical chart to visually see the process. This made it much easier for me to follow the progression. After doing so, I prayed, "Lord, how can this be conveyed to readers, so that they can understand this process?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was to put it within the lines of a table. Being a stiff-necked, stubborn person, as it's often called in the Bible, I prayed, asking the Lord God if He's sure that's really what He wanted me to do? I reluctantly put Leviticus 13 into a table format. When I read this difficult leprosy process within a table format, it suddenly became easier for me to understand. That's because it builds line upon line, as explained in the Understanding the Bible section. Shortly after that, the Lord God had it on my heart, to put all of The Books of the Bible in Smaller Chunks within a table format, to aid in understanding, line upon line.

Psalm 143:1-12 Book# 5 of Psalms

 

A Psalm [by] David.

Psalm 143:1-12            Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

O Lord, hear my prayer. [Lend Your] ear [& listen] to my [prayers.] Answer me in Your faithfulness & in Your righteousness. And [don't] enter into judgment with Your servant; for no living man shall be justified in Your sight.

For the enemy has persecuted my soul. He has [struck] my life down to the ground. He has made me dwell in darkness, [like] those [who] have long been dead. Therefore, my spirit is overwhelmed within me. Within me, my heart is [lonely.] 

I remember the days of old. I [think about] all Your works & I [ponder] the work of Your hands. [Exodus 14:21-22 And Moses stretched out his hand over the [Red] Sea. 

And the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night & made the sea dry land & the waters were divided. And the children [people] of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground & the waters were a wall to them on their right hand & on their left.]

I stretch [out] My hands to You. My soul thirsts after You, [like] a thirsty land. Selah. [Revelation 22:16-17 I, Jesus, have sent [My] Angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I Am the Root & the Offspring of David & the Bright & Morning Star. 

And the Spirit & the bride say, Come. And let him [who hears] say, Come. And let him [who] is [thirsty,] come. And [whoever is willing,] let him take the Water of Life freely.]

O Lord, hear me speedily. My spirit fails. [Don't] hide Your face from me, lest I [am] like [those who] go down into the pit. [Psalm 30:3 O Lord, You have brought My soul up from the grave. You have kept me alive, [so] that I shouldn't go down to the pit.]

[Make it possible for] me to hear Your loving kindness in the morning: for I do trust in You. Cause me to know the [path in which] I should walk; for I lift up my soul to You. O Lord, deliver me from [my] enemies. I flee to You to hide me. Teach me to do Your will; for You are my God. 

Your Spirit is good. Lead me into the land of [the upright.] [Revive] me, O Lord, for Your Name's sake. Bring my soul out of trouble: for Your righteousness' sake. [In] Your mercy, cut off [my] enemies & destroy all [those who] afflict my soul: For I am Your servant.

[Psalm 54:5 He shall reward evil to [my] enemies & cut them off [by] Your Truth.]
