"There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving."—Acts 20:35. ???????? “Jehovah is good to all.” (Ps. 145:9) ???????? Since we depend on one another, it is natural that doing things for others produces satisfaction. Albert Einstein, whose work benefited others, said: “The value of a man . . . should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.” This is in agreement with these words of our Lord Jesus Christ: “There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving.” (Acts 20:35) Therefore, while it is good to receive love, it is also very healthy to show love for others. ???????? https://wol.jw.org…

"Stand Firm and See the Salvation of Jehovah” - What Will Soon Happen! Be Ready! - ??????? “Jehovah is on my side; I shall not fear. What can earthling man do to me?”—PSALM 118:6.

Korolev of 1 June 2017, the Supreme Court of the republic of Kazakhstan reversed the decision of all lower courts and thereby showed the insubstantiality of the accusation against Jehovah's Witnesses of "illegal missionary activity."

Pray Until Something Happens ! P U S H..... A man was sleeping one night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light, and God appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might. So, this the man did, day after day. For many years he toiled from sun up to sun down, his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all of his might. Each night the man returned to his cabin sore and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain. Since the man was showin…

Earthquakes, Bible Prophecy, and You - Get Ready! ?️??????️ BEFORE his death, Jesus foretold events and situations that would give evidence that this world had entered “the conclusion of the system of things.” That period, he said, would be marked by such things as pestilences, food shortages, and large-scale warfare. He also mentioned “great earthquakes” that would occur “in one place after another.” (Matthew 24:3, 7; Luke 21:10, 11) Was Jesus referring to our day? ?️??????️ Many say no. They assert that the number of earthquakes has not substantially increased in recent decades. In fact, the U.S. National Earthquake Information Center reports that e…

I CAN SHUT OFF MY TV ??? I ONLY WATCH NEWS AND PROGRAMS THAT ARE GOOD?!! ????? IF SOMEONE offered you a million dollars to give up television for the rest of your life, would you do so? Some years ago 1 in 4 Americans surveyed said that they would not. Another survey asked men what they wanted most. The majority said that they desired peace and happiness. But this came second on their wish list. What they wanted first in life was a big-screen television! The time that many people devote to television is astonishing. Recently, a global study showed that, on average, people watch TV for just over three hours each day. North Americans watch four and a half hours da…

“The Nations Will Have to Know That I Am Jehovah!" ?⚡️?⚡️? HOW would you feel if you were accused of a crime you did not commit? And what if that crime caused much suffering to others, including many innocent people? Surely you would want to clear your name! Are you aware that Jehovah faces a similar challenge? Today many wrongly blame God for the injustice and suffering in this world. Is Jehovah concerned about clearing his name? Indeed, he is! Consider what is said in the book of Ezekiel.—Read Ezekiel 39:7. ?⚡️?⚡️? “I shall no more let my holy name be profaned,” Jehovah says. When humans blame him for injustice, they are profaning his name. How so? …

He called me from New York and said: "I'm probably staying here." The news is shocking. The last thing you could expect from a person who sang (and sings): "I was born and grew up on Lenin Street". It's hard to imagine music more Russian than the one that Zero played, and Chistyakov continues to play. A brilliant album "No fools" and a few very strong singles have just come out, he has traveled around the country with concerts, he is at the peak of his form, he is finally all right after twenty years of depression and setbacks. So from what to run (and this is the escape)? Photo from the archive of Fedor Chistyakov ... The fact that Chistyakov is a member of Jeh…

"His Hand Is Never Empty!" ??????? A poem by: @jehovah_knows_ Out of despair I have called to Him, How many times, I cannot say, Yet every time He’s answered me, He’s shown He hears me when I pray. Jehovah’s hand is never empty, How He longs to hold us tight, To rescue us from all that’s evil, Lead us through this world’s dark night. I cannot say I don’t get anxious, As imperfection rules my mind, These days remain a constant struggle, To not look ahead or behind. Oh, today should be enough for me Tomorrow is tomorrow, Things of yesterday I cannot change, Stuck in either brings one sorrow. I force myself to maintain focus, Firmly on the …

Will the Judge of all the earth not do what is right?—Gen. 18:25. Because he made it a practice to obey Jehovah even in seemingly minor matters, Abraham kept his friendship with God healthy and flourishing. He felt free to open his heart to Jehovah, asking for help as he struggled with hard questions. For example, when he learned that God was going to destroy the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, Abraham was concerned that righteous people might be swept away along with the wicked. Perhaps Abraham was worried about his nephew Lot and his family, who were then living in Sodom. Abraham asked his questions with great humility and trust in God, “the Judge of all the earth.” …
