WORD OF THE DAY:
(2 Timothy 1:14)
Guard and keep (with the greatest care) the precious and excellently adapted (Truth) which has been entrusted (to you), by the (help of) the Holy Spirit Who makes His home in us.
MESSAGE OF THE DAY:
STEPHEN'S SPEECH CONTINUES, Seconc section ...
(Acts 7:22-32)
22. "So Moses was trained and educated in all the wisdom and culture of the Egyptians, and he was mighty (powerful) in his speech and deeds.
23. "But when he was about forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his kinsmen, the children of Israel (to help them and to care for them).
24. "When he saw one of them being hurt unfairly and unjustly treated, he defended the oppressed man and avenged him by striking down the Egyptian, and slaying (him).
25. "He thought his own people would understand that God was granting them deliverance by his hand (taking it for granted that they would accept him); but they did not understand.
26. "The next day Moses saw two men fighting and quarreling among themselves, and he urged them to make peace and become reconciled, saying: 'Men, you are brethren; why do you abuse and wrong one another?'
27. "Whereupon the man who was unfairly hurting and abusing his neighbour, pushed Moses aside, saying: 'Who appointed you a ruler (umpire) and a judge over us?
28. "'Do you want to to kill me as you slew the Egyptian yesterday?'
29. "At that reply Moses sought safety by flight and he was an exile and an alien in the country of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.
30. "After forty years had gone by, there appeared to him in the wilderness (desert) of Mount Sinai, an angel in the flame of a burning bramblebush.
31. "When Moses saw it, he was amazed at the sight, and marveled, but when he went close to investigate, there came to him the voice of the Lord, saying:
32. "'I Am the God of your forefathers, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.' Moses began to tremble, and did not dare to look closely."
Naweek 3 & 4 September 2016.

BOODSKAP VAN DIE DAG:
STEPHANUS SE TOESPRAAK DUUR VOORT, Tweede gedeelte ...
(Handelinge 7:22-32)
22. "En Moses is opgelei in al die wysheid van die Egiptenaars en was magtig in woorde en dade.
23. "En nadat hy die ouderdom van veertig jaar bereik het, het dit in sy hart opgekom om sy broers, die kinders van Israel, te besoek;
24. "En toe hy sien dat iemand onreg aangedoen word het hy hom verdedig en die man wat mishandel was, gewreek deur die Egiptenaar te verslaan.
25. "En hy het gedink dat sy broers sou verstaan dat God hulle deur sy hand redding sou gee; maar hulle het dit nie verstaan nie.
26. "En die volgende dag het hy by hulle verskyn terwyl hulle besig was om te veg, en hy het by hulle aangedring om vrede te maak, en gesê: 'Manne, julle is broers; waarom doen julle mekaar onreg aan?'
27. "Maar hy wat sy naaste onreg aangedoen het, het hom afgestoot en gesê: 'Wie het jou 'n owerste en regter oor ons aangestel?
28. "'Jy wil my tog nie doodmaak soos jy gister die Egiptenaar doodgemaak het nie?'
29. "En Moses het op hierdie woord gevlug en 'n bywoner geword in die land Midian, waar hy die vader van twee seuns geword het.
30. "En toe veertig jaar verby was, het 'n engel van die Here aan hom verskyn, in die woestyn van die berg Sinai, in die vuurvlam van 'n doringbos.
31. "En Moses het dit gesien en hom oor die gesig verwonder; en toe hy daarheen gaan om dit te besien, het die stem van die Here tot hom gekom:
32. "'Ek is die God van jou vaders, die God van Abraham, en die God van Isak en die God van Jakob.' En Moses het begin bewe en nie gewaag om dit te bekyk nie."
(God willing and by His marvellous grace and mercy I wiil share the Word with you, as often as I possibly can. /
As dit die wil van God is en deur Sy wonderbare genade en barmhartigheid, sal ek die Woord met u deel so dikwels as wat ek moontlik kan.)
