They met Moses and Aaron, who were waiting for them, as they came out from Pharaoh; and they said to them, “The Lord look on you and judge, because you have made us stink in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants, and have put a sword in their hand to kill us.”
(Exodus 5:20-21) ESV
Bible study is our meat and potatoes at Matty’s Paradigm, it’s what we do. Daily Bible reading is also really important and many of our insights have come from simply following a routine.

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

(2 Thessalonians 2:9-12) NKJV

And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell.
(James 3:6) NKJV

Fed by Ravens
If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
(John 7:17) KJV
Did you know that it’s possible to know God’s will? That is, what to do NEXT? When that’s done, the next task is revealed. It’s like following a trail of bread crumbs, or being fed by ravens. We come to know God’s will by doing God’s will.
