Jehovah Delivers the Afflicted Ones! ??????? “Many are the calamities of the righteous one, but out of them all Jehovah delivers him.”—PSALM 34:19 ??????? Have you struggled with feelings of despair? As one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, you have abundant reason to rejoice because godly devotion “holds promise of the life now and that which is to come.” (1 Timothy 4:8) Right now you dwell in a spiritual paradise! However, does that mean that you are shielded from all affliction? Hardly! The Bible says: “Many are the calamities of the righteous one.” (Psalm 34:19) This is not surprising, for “the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one,” Satan the…

Coming to Know Jehovah’s Ways - Pray for Help and Direction! “Make me know . . . your ways, that I may know you.”—EXODUS 33:13 ?????? What Jehovah Expects of His People What Jehovah expected of his people was disclosed orally at Mount Sinai. Moses later received two tablets containing the Ten Commandments in written form. Upon descending from the mountain, he saw the Israelites worshiping the molten calf and angrily threw down the tablets, shattering them. Jehovah again inscribed the Ten Commandments on stone tablets that Moses had carved out. (Exodus 32:19; 34:1) ?????? These commandments had not changed since they were first given. Moses …

(Malachi 3:12) "All the nations will have to pronounce YOU happy, for YOU yourselves will become a land of delight,” Jehovah of armies has said." ? ???? Looking forward to that day, Jehovah of armies says: “From the sun’s rising even to its setting my name will be great among the nations. . . .

God’s People Must Love Kindness - Do You Love Kindness? “What is Jehovah asking back from you but to exercise justice and to love kindness and to be modest in walking with your God?”—MICAH 6:8. ??????? Kindness is displayed by taking an active interest in the welfare of others. It is shown by helpful acts and considerate words. To be kind means to do good rather than to do anything harmful. A kind person is friendly, gentle, sympathetic, and gracious. He has a generous, considerate attitude toward others. ??????? The apostle Paul admonished Christians: “Clothe yourselves with the tender affections of compassion, kindness, lowliness of mind, mildness, a…

“Mark Well the Ravens.” Michael Burnett, a class instructor and former missionary, delivered the talk with the above title. He said that we are going to have anxious thoughts on occasion. But remember Jesus’ counsel: “Mark well that the ravens neither sow seed nor reap, . . . and yet God feeds them.” (Luke 12:24) ??? According to the Law covenant, ravens were unclean, not fit to be eaten. They were to be considered loathsome. (Leviticus 11:13, 15) ??? In spite of their status, God feeds them. “So if you are confronted with major anxiety in the future,” said Brother Burnett, “think about the raven. If God takes care of an unclean, loathsome bird, how …

“May my prayer be prepared as incense before you.” (Ps. 141:2) ??????? Making Whole-Souled Sacrifices for Jehovah King David sang to Jehovah: “May my prayer be prepared as incense before you.” (Ps. 141:2) ??????? Think for a moment about your prayers—about their regularity and their quality. The book of Revelation likens “the prayers of the holy ones” to incense in that acceptable prayers rise to Jehovah like a sweet-smelling and pleasant odor. (Rev. 5:8) In ancient Israel, the incense that was regularly offered on Jehovah’s altar had to be carefully and precisely prepared. It was acceptable to Jehovah only if offered according to the guidelines…

Nadab and Abihu offered illegitimate fire to Jehovah and He struck them dead. ☄️???☄️ God’s Rest—Have You Entered Into It? ☄️???☄️ Moses’ brother, Aaron, faced a difficult situation with regard to two of his sons. Think of how he must have felt when his sons Nadab and Abihu offered illegitimate fire to Jehovah and He struck them dead. ☄️???☄️ Of course, that ended any association those men could have had with their parents. But there is more. Jehovah instructed Aaron and his faithful sons: “Do not let your heads go ungroomed, and you must not tear your garments [in mourning], that you may not die and that [Jehovah] may not become indignant …

News World Jehovah's Witness in Crimea 'ordered to renounce faith to be drafted into Russian army' Crimean authorities may have breached international laws by ordering a Jehovah's Witness to prove he has abandoned his faith before being drafted into the occupying Russian army, according to a human rights monitor. Members of the Christian denomination, which is deeply opposed to military service, were previously allowed to sign up for alternative civilian service in Russia, where men have to complete a year's draft in the army between the ages of 18-27. But there have been several reports of Jehovah's Witnesses being denied the right to serve as civilians aft…

World Jehovah’s Witnesses in Crimea Ordered to Renounce Faith or Fight for Occupying Russian Army By Jason LE MIere 06/23/17 Part 1 of 5: The CULT of Jehovah’s Witnesses The issue of military service is a separate issue and, yes, they profess political neutrality; however, in the past they have been allowed to bribe public officials in Mexico (in the late 60s or early 70s) to obtain political cards saying that they had completed military service when, in fact, they never participated. Their fellow witnesses in Malawi never had that opportunity. During the same time in Malawi and hundreds, if not thousands of Witnesses, were killed …

What We Owe Jehovah’s Witnesses FACEBOOK TWITTER LINKEDIN PINTEREST PRINT BY SARAH BARRINGER GORDON 1/27/2011 • AMERICAN HISTORY Jehovah’s Witnesses were unlikely champions of religious freedom. One of the most momentous cases on the Supreme Court docket as war raged globally in 1943 was about a single sentence said aloud by schoolchildren every day. They stood, held their right hands over their hearts or in a raised-arm salute and began, “I pledge allegiance to the flag…” To most Americans the pledge was a solemn affirmation of national unity, especially at a time when millions o…

I will meditate on all your activity.—Ps. 77:12. Scientific research shows that saying words aloud during study makes them easier to recall. The Creator of our brain knows this. That is why he instructed Joshua to read His book of the Law “in an undertone.” (Josh. 1:8) You will likely find that reading the Bible softly, or in an undertone, makes a deeper impression on your mind. This may also help you to concentrate better. While reading may be done with little effort, meditation requires concentration. That is why the imperfect human brain is inclined to switch to easier, less demanding tasks. Thus, the best time to meditate is when you are rested and in a stress-fr…

Names of practising Jehovah’s Witnesses have been changed out of respect for their privacy.When Alvin Phua was 10, his mother opened the door to strangers who spoke fluent English, thinking they could be tuition teachers for her son’s weak command of the language.They were, in fact, Jehovah’s Witnesses (JW), and that was the day mother and son joined the community.For the next eight years, Alvin was a devout JW. Not only was he unconcerned that the Singapore government had de-registered and banned the activities of the religion since 1972, he was also pleased that they did.“You feel like part of a secret gang. Isn’t that fun? Everybody takes pride in some kind of identity…
