Greetings with Zechariah 9, 10 :
“And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from river even to the ends of the earth.”
I like to share this to you: I like the Daily Texts… it is a good tradition to read every day the Texts… Here you find something about the Daily Texts:
“….The tradition of the Daily Texts began in 1722 when Count Nicholas Ludwig von Zinzendorf (1700-1760) offered land and protection to refugees from Bohemia and Moravia…
By 1812, after Count Zinzendorf had died, the Moravian Chruch established that all watchwords would be drawn by lot from a selection of around 2000 suitable Old Testament texts. The watchword represents either a promise, and encouragement, sometimes and admonition or a word of comfort. The selection process is a devout one; for each watchword is prayed over before being chosen from the collection of verses…
From these humble beginnings, the Daily Texts has become one of the most widely read daily devotional guides in the world, with readership far surpassing the membership of the Moravian Church, at 700,000. The press run in Germany alone is over one million copies; and the Daily Texts is published in forty-one languages and dialects. It forms an invisible bond between Christians on all continents, crossing confessional, language and political barriers, and in its quiet way performs a truly ecumenical service for the whole of Christendom……”

(I like to add this: the today’s texts have been drawn by lot… three years ago! …. and a text drawn cannot be “used” again in the next tree years… in other words: a text for today you perhaps may find again earliest possible after three years…- And one thing more: sometimes…. there are only parts from a certain verse…)
And here is what did so amaze and astonish me just today:
The Daily Text (Watchword) for Friday July 29, 2005 He shall command peace to the nations. Zechariah 9:10
