January 29th Daily Word and Visions from God

Luke 21-Now during the day He was teaching in the temple, but at evening He would go out and spend the night on the mount that is called Olivet.
Genesis 38-Moreover, it took place while she was giving birth, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, "This one came out first."
Psalm 29-The LORD will bless his people with peace.
1 Kings 17.8-16-The bowl of flour was not exhausted not did the jar of oil become empty, according to the word of the LORD which He spoke through Elijah.

This is ground. A reference point for electric. A reference point to shed spurious signals and dissipate them to ground. Used to ground ham equipment and used to ground house wiring. True ground that comes several feet deep in the earth. Jesus would ground himself in prayer and communion with His Father. He retreated at night, he retreated in the early morning. Jesus was grounded in His Father. Likewise a scarlet thread was tied around one of the twins born in the Genesis story. A reference marker to indicate which child was born first. A ground of sorts to indicate priority in birth. God grounds his actions in peace. God grounds action in life and gives us life in Him. Life in the sustenance of His Word. His Word grounded and spoken through Elijah. The flour and oil of His blessings never ends. God is my ground in life. God is my reference point in which I can turn. I must ground myself in Him always.

Lord, connect me to Your source of ground through Your Word and through Christ. ---Amen
