The Daily Scriptures - Isaiah 60:22

Jesus showed, that the angels were given the responsibility of taking care of the spiritual welfare of God's servants. So, as he warned his disciples against making others stumble, he said,  "See, that you do not despise one of these little ones;  for I tell you,  that your angels in heaven always observe the face of my Father who is in heaven. "
Matthew 18:10,  -  https: //wol.jw.org/en/wol/l/r5/lp-t? Q = Matthew + 18% 3A10
Jesus did not mean by this, that each of his followers has a guardian angel. But he showed, that angels, who cooperate with God, have an active interest in true Christians.

Too many Satellites in Space? Is that called "space garbage" or "overload"?
Confusion and air is in fact "polluted". Can that effect out brains and bodies? Yes of course! ????
As we gear up for an era where space travel becomes more common thanks to the efforts of companies like Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic and Elon MuskÂ’s SpaceX, territory that was unchartered just a few decades ago could soon become commonplace.
Even those of us with no interest in traveling to space have come to rely on The Final Frontier more so than ever before, thanks to an increasing number of services that rely on satellites orbiting the Earth. Cell phones and in-dash navigation systems rely on GPS satellites, Dish and DirecTV obviously use satellite feeds, and satellite communications systems offered by the likes of Inmarsat and Iridium continue to proliferate across various industries.
Just how crowded is it getting up there above the EarthÂ’s atmosphere?
The answer: Pretty crowded.
Vala Afshar, chief marketing officer of network infrastructure company Extreme Networks, recently posted a fascinating image on Twitter. Simply put, the image shows every single satellite in space that is currently orbiting Earth, in one graphic.
The picture speaks for itself:
We need GodÂ’s Kingdom! Let it come! Matthew 6:10.

You know you are almost right. Almost like Paul was before getting seen my Jesus. We believe just what you said. There will be survivors at Armageddon, a great crowd, just as John stated. Will they be all JW's? No, that is up to Jehovah God, not us. And to,become free of death that comes at the end of the 1000 years after Satan is released one last time. Again we agree with you. That is in scripture. You have issues with this religion, but Jesus taught from village to village, Paul went from house to house. So we take this message of the Kingdom as they did; exactly as they did! You have picked out bad points you dislike about us, that's ok. But make the truth right about us always, ok? You may have been one of us, sorry, but if not try not to askew what you think is fact about this religion. Know what is truly going on, not what you feel. Ok? Organized gatherings of liked beliefs was what Paul stressed at Hebrews 10:24,25. That is what we do. And Paul stressed that they be done in an orderly fashioned, also.
Why did Jesus leave Nazareth? Did Jesus leave the Jewish religious establishment while alive, even after his baptism? As a youngster, in the household he followed his parents and went to Jerusalem for the yearly festivities; and even after his baptism he continue to celebrate them even though he called the religious leaders 'hypocrites'. Your assumption is false, would your full premise also be false? It only takes one! Paul was leaning in the wrong direction and had to be corrected, right? I do not know what drives you, but the basis for this rant is incorrect. You have the right, but it is incorrect. Have a great day.

CAMELS ? ?????  
Camels What Do You Know? < Alone in the Desert?
Although folklore has it that the camel stores water in its hump, this is not the case. It is generally thought that the camel can get along without water for a prolonged period because of its ability to retain much of the water that it drinks. 
 
A contributory factor is the design of the nose, which enables the animal to extract water vapor when exhaling. The camel can tolerate a loss of water of 25 percent of its weight, in contrast to 12 percent for humans. It does not lose moisture by perspiration as rapidly as do other creatures, because its body temperature can vary 6° C. (11° F.) without marked effects. 
 
Its blood is unique in that loss of fluid is minimal even when water is in short supply for several days. It can also replace lost body weight by drinking as much as 135 L (35 gal) in ten minutes.
 
Some camels are known to have traveled at amazing speeds. At 1 Samuel 30:17, an allusion to swift camels may be noted. It was only the 400 young men that rode camels who escaped when David struck down the Amalekite raiders.

Beautiful Jaguar Created by Jehovah God! Amazing Creatures! I’d love to pet one, one day to know IÂ’m safe! His Promise! 
????? 
This year's focus is on big cats so I thought I'd share a clip of this big male jaguar taking a drink at sunset. During the dry season in Brazil's Pantanal, the jaguars stick close to the rivers. Not only do these rivers provide drinking water, they also concentrate the jaguar's primary prey- capybara and caiman. As a result, the best way to observe them is by boat. This gives an added benefit for filming as you can use the boat as a giant camera slider to create movement in the shot. Using a gyrostabilised rig and an electric motor, my boatman and I were able to smoothly (and almost silently) glide past giving the shot this rotation. Shot for a @natgeowild jaguar show.

PRAY IN BEHALF OF OTHERS....     
Jesus made supplication for Peter so that the apostleÂ’s faith would not give out. Luke 22:32
The faithful first-century Christian Epaphras imitated Jesus in this regard and exerted himself in prayer in behalf of his brothers  in Colossae
"He prays hard for you all the time  "Paul wrote them"  that you may stand fast, ripe in conviction and wholly devoted to doing  God’s will"  Col. 4:12,  The New English Bible
We do well to ask ourselves,... " Do I pray hard for my brothers around the world ?...
How often do my prayers include fellow believers who have suffered because of a natural disaster ?...
When did  I last exert myself in prayer for those shouldering heavy responsibility in Jehovah’s organization ?...
Have I recently prayed for individuals in the congregation who are facing hardships ?...
Our prayers to Jehovah God in behalf of others can truly help them
Although Jehovah is not obliged to act because a large number of his worshippers have made prayerful requests repeatedly, he notes their collective interest and takes into account their genuine and deep concern as he responds to their prayers,...
So we ought to take seriously our privilege and responsibility to pray in behalf of others,...
Like Epaphras, we should display our heartfelt love and concern for our Christian brothers and sisters by exerting ourselves in prayer in their behalf....
Doing so will add to our happiness,  for  "there is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving"  Acts 20:35

PREACHING IN UKRAINE

The Lord’s anointed are sticking close to GodÂ’s appointed channel for dispensing spiritual food.
And now “a great crowd” of “other sheep,” Christians with an earthly hope, are imitating their watchfulness and zeal.
"Look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb." (Rev. 7:9) - Bible Speaks -

RUSSIA.. 
DOZENS OF JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES ARRESTED (TWO DETAINED) AS POLICE AND ARMED TROOPS RAID HOMES OF JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES CONFISCATING THEIR PROPERTIES AND OTHER VALUABLES. 
No fewer than 16 residences of peaceful citizens in Belgorod and 12 residences in Kemerovo were subjected to invasion by representatives of law enforcement agencies and to searches. Dozens of people were arrested and several have remained in custody for two days now. As the European Association of Jehovah's Witnesses reported on 9 February, the citizens are suspected of continuing the activity of the organization "Administrative Center of Jehovah's Witnesses in Russia," which was liquidated by decision of the Russian Supreme Court on 20 April 2017, which found the aforesaid organization "extremist."
In the evening of 7 February in Belgorod, large groups consisting of personnel of the police, the Investigation Directorate of the MVD, and armed troops of a SOBR [Special Rapid Response Unit] simultaneously barged into a number of private homes of local residents. In some cases citizens were thrown to the floor and pinned to the wall, and then all were forcibly taken to the police department and searches were conducted in the residences. A group of deaf people also was taken to the police department, who had gathered for friendly communication. In all, dozens of people were taken to the police department at 60 Prince Trubetskoy St. At the police department, passport data were collected from citizens, fingerprints were taken, and summons were drawn up. The last of those released left at nine in the morning of the next day. Two citizens, Anatoly Shaliapin and Sergei Voikov, were held in custody for 48 hours and the issue of the selection of measures of prevention was decided within the context of the investigation of a case regarding continuation of the activity of an extremist organization.
During the searches, which sometimes were conducted in a brutal form and were accompanied by insulting comments, from the citizens were seized Bibles, all electronic equipment and data storage devices, travel passports, money, and in some cases even photographs that were hanging on the wall. 
The Russian Ministry of Justice, which last year requested the liquidation of the legal entity of Jehovah's Witnesses, had insisted that the constitutional rights of individual believers would not be affected in any way in the event of the satisfaction of its lawsuit.
A criminal case is about to opened for the two brothers that was detained??

What is LENT? ~ Do True Christians Observe This? 
The 40-day fast of Lent is said to commemorate the 40-day fast of Christ. Yet, Jesus never commanded his disciples to commemorate his fast. Also, since Jesus fasted following his baptism and not before his death, the fact that some religions observe Lent in the weeks preceding Easter may seem strange. 
However, a 40-day fast in the early part of the year was common among ancient Babylonians, Egyptians, and Greeks. The so-called “Christian” custom was evidently borrowed from them. 
Futhemore, notice the connection between Mardi Gras and Lent. According to History.com: "Though Mardi Gras technically refers only to Fat Tuesday, the Mardi Gras season actually begins on Epiphany, a Christian holiday celebrated on January 6 that is otherwise known as Three Kings Day or the Twelfth Day of Christmas. 
In Brazil and many other countries, this period between Epiphany and Fat Tuesday is known as Carnival. Whichever name you prefer to use, the revelries of Mardi Gras last until midnight when Ash Wednesday ushers in 40 days of Lent." 
Too, "during the Middle Ages," according to Worldreligionnews.com, "the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday was called Shrove Tuesday because all were required to go to confessional and get guidance on their penances to perform during Lent. 
Shrove Tuesday is also called Fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras, marking the end of Carnival." Hence, the day after Mardi Gras, on Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent, one receives a cross mark on the forehead with ashes as a reminder for the need for penitence and as a form of public penance. Lastly, regarding fasting, the Bible warns against adopting “false humility.” (Colossians 2:20-23) 
Jesus’ illustration of the proud Pharisee who felt morally superior to others because of his regular fasting leaves no doubt that God rejects such an attitude. (Luke 18:9-14) 
It would also be a mistake to publicize the fact that you fast or to fast because another person tells you to do so. According to Matthew 6:16-18, Jesus counseled that fasting should be a private matter, between you and God, and that you should not announce it to others. Thus, does Lent adhere to these Bible principles? - Bible Speaks -

God made man. The Athenians believed that they were superior to non-Greeks. But pride of nationality or race goes against Bible truth.
Deut. 10:17
https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/l/r1/lp-e?q=Deut.+10%3A17
Paul addressed this delicate matter with tact and skill. When he said, “[God] made out of one man every nation of men,” PaulÂ’s words no doubt gave his listeners pause. 
Acts 17:26
https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/l/r1/lp-e?q=Acts+17%3A26
He was referring to the Genesis account of Adam, the progenitor of the human race. 
Gen. 1:26-28
https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/l/r1/lp-e?q=Gen.+1%3A26-28
Since all humans have a common ancestor, no race or nationality is superior to another. How could any of PaulÂ’s listeners miss the point? We learn an important lesson from his example. While we want to be tactful and reasonable in our witnessing work, we do not want to water down Bible truth so as to make it more acceptable to others.
