This blog is written in 3 sections: Prophesy, Interpretation and scriptures.
When Matt aka Kansas Cowboy hears from God, it's unlike anything I have ever read. It's poetry, it's rhythmical, and often difficult to understand at first. But when you delve deeper, you find an intelligence that can only come from Heaven.
Have you ever wondered why God says a woman is unclean for seven days during "that time?" Why are soldiers unclean for seven days after battle? What about women who have gone through menopause? Kansas answers these questions and shows us how to live life FULL of health, peace, and happiness, into old age. Ladies, this ode is for you!
Prophesy
Numbers 22:41-23:1 ![]()
41 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up into the high places of Baal, that thence he might see the utmost part of the people.
23 And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams.
Joshua 13:1-7, 15-23 17 God gives Israel the high places of baal alter land as inheritance
Pray your path be made straight, that Jerusalem's fields no longer lay desolate. Therefore, feast with me Jerusalem's men and virgin daughters that you delight in my knowing, that my work thus shown to thee, that you are thus attentive to my work, my hands, my divinity, my creativity.
A cleansing, blood spilled on my alters, a healing, that you might know the nature of My being, your reason for being. Thus I anoint the Spirit's being, holy flow, make my sacrament and vision known.

| Millions of voices silenced! |
31 And David said to Joab and to all the people with him, Rend your clothes, gird yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn before Abner. And King David followed the bier.
This shall be my pact, my bond with you, Mine house, Father and Son, watch over you, this I shall ever do for you, never to part from you. Therefore through thy fervent prayers thy children be bestowed upon you. Like Sarah and Elizabeth, by the blood of My Son, together there is nothing we can't do (Jesus blood is the miracle of birth after menopause!).
And in that elder time, by the blood of my Son, thy womb sanctified, it is mine. Do not depart, do not doubt in that time. Delight in Thine (represents God, and husband), such tender joys (children) be Divine time.
Do not cry, I delight in your plight, the trouble you are in. Thy blood, thy healing balm soothes, sanctifies Jerusalem, thy child within.
Behold thy son, Christ's blood covers you, washes over you. In due time such tender sucklings He shall bestow upon you.
Know that when we are weak, He is strong. We have that Almighty force to carry on!
I live for the Kingdom of Christ, my wife, my babies, my family.
He has felt women's hurt, their sacrifice, emotions, pain, like Christ, sacrificed. They are hurt, in pain, made one, made whole once again. In Him all is made right We have been hurt, we've been lied to, yet all is made right by the Spirit flow, pain, and iniquity must go, all is made right by the blood of Christ: which flows, comes forth from inside of you. Christ's blood flows inside you.
You feel alone, you feel no one hears you. The feeling of dirty and unclean, amongst runs about your virtue, behold His blood runs, makes whole, redeems what is seemingly unclean. The unclean is purified, sanctified, woven (blanket), cloven (beast of the field, calf offering), prepared by the One who hears me, speaks to me, prepares for seed.
Strength in weakness,
Perfect, yet outcries imperfect, made Perfect.
His Glory
His divinity
His Kingdom
His field, lush grass, flowers and trees lies within thee!
Love thee as He loves thee.
See what He sees.
To Repent, To Rebuke ----> leads to love, blessings
Punishment----leads to REWARDS
Numbers 25:8, 12-13
8 And went after the man of Israel into the inner room and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel and the woman through her body. Then the [smiting] plague was stayed from the Israelites.
12 Therefore say, Behold, I give to Phinehas the priest My covenant of peace. 13 And he shall have it, and his descendants after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was jealous for his God and made atonement for the Israelites.
(Christ on the cross, our submission to Christ Jesus)
Treasure trove (hidden from the world), treasure chest.
Storms rolling across the plains, spring, summer, womanly rains, spring forth flowers,
Isolation, desolation, tis thy wrath, long-suffering? Thy life, thy Light, thy Christ, thy wife brought forth again.
Thy rain, thy pain, spring and summer rains, My blood, My Child, covers thee once again.
Love Me.
Love Purity.
Love what is inwardly done in you represents, covering over you-
This is what I do. I can bring about make possible, all things in you.
COVENANT
Numbers 18:9-19
Love Me for what I am and what I do. Look not are we but gentiles and Jews? but for how I know you, I love you, what I represent to you. I know you and I love you. I knew you, I saw you, I created you, I brought forth blooms in you, rejoice virgin daughter, all has been made new, tis my covenant between me and you. Behold My vision of you, My perfection in you. Thy mansion, thy barn, thy horse, thy oxen, thy sod - farm - fields of outstretched lawns, thy provision all in you. Love you as I do. What is right (looks, spouses, land) for him or her is not for you. Love perfection, thy completion in you.
This is what I do, tis My love, My covering, My showering (blessings), My dowry for you.
I sow into you, that is what I do.
My branches, My vine, (John 15)
My works, inwardly reside (Holy Spirit, sound mind, menstruation, pregnancy)
Interpretation
Most women get a download, a revelation from God when pregnant about raising children.
Sin is very ugly, very dirty. We all have seen something gross on TV we wish we had not seen. We say they can't show that on prime time TV! Well, think about all that God sees. He sees that man drinking, watching pornography, and beating his children. He sees the women doing what is unseemly in homosexuality. He sees doctors promoting sex outside of marriage and abortion. Think about how sickening and the insanity He sees.
Babies go unto Christ in the womb, and Jesus says to prevent not them from coming unto me.
As a woman you are called to be a Holy lady, to now the truth, the fruit of your calling. You lie in wait, in purity, in holiness for a Jesus anointed marriage.

In the writing, God says "that you my know the nature of My being, your reason for being."
Our society worships that movie star, the guy next door, worshiping me, not being Christ like, caring and giving.
Both Sarah and Elizabeth were said to be "past their prime." Both were well into menopause and had no hope of bearing any children. Yet with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!
Hebrews 11:11 11 Because of faith also Sarah herself received physical power to conceive a child, even when she was long past the age for it, because she considered [God] Who had given her the promise to be reliable and trustworthy and true to His word.
Genesis 18:13 And the LORD said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, 'Shall I indeed bear a child, when I am so old?'
Elizabeth
Luke 1: 5 In the days when Herod was king of Judea there was a certain priest whose name was Zachariah, of the daily service (the division) of Abia; and his wife was also a descendant of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.6 And they both were righteous in the sight of God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and requirements of the Lord.7 But they had no child, for Elizabeth was barren; and both were far advanced in years
13 But the angel said to him, Do not be afraid, Zachariah, because your petition was heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you must call his name John [God is favorable].14 And you shall have joy and exultant delight, and many will rejoice over his birth,
Those holy women had their hearts set on their God and their future children. This should give you a clear indication of Christ's leading. Often times that child like faith is best. What was God speaking to you at 2, 3 years old? Let us sing "Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world." Now imagine your child singing at public school, or to a loud rock n roll song he heard on the radio. Is the Spirit showing you what he is showing me? Yeah, lets just try to forget about; not imagine that.

| God loves heaven , he lives there. God is very smart. |
I also saw men, bloody, seemingly unclean, covered in fresh blood from the sword. They are seemingly unclean, strength in their weakness, obedience to Christ our Lord. "I don't want to give up my life, I don't want to die!" We are all not called upon to fight, but spiritually to give up one's life for Christ is to save it. We must always see our world through God's eyes, God's lens,
I also saw this as a vision, a parable of God wiping clean, cleansing our country, His nation. He is wiping it all clean, like the flood, washing away all the sinful, the dirty, the unclean.
Numbers 25 is like dating. Here, I will buy you dinner (food) and a movie, or we can bow down at the alters of "rock n roll gods" "rock gods" at a concert. They (women and men) fill them with food, they fill them with drink, and entice them into sexual immorality (Romans 1:26-27, 1 Corinthians 6:19).
I Corinthians 6:19-20
19 Do you not know that your body is the temple (the very sanctuary) of the Holy Spirit Who lives within you, Whom you have received [as a Gift] from God? You are not your own,

| The earth is our footstool also. |
In this he is set free from the worries in the small things. People in the world seek to hurt, to rob, to pillage, to steal. Think of the scriptures that reference "you can't take it with you."
Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and THEN all things shall be added unto you. I know it is not natural for you, and it seems hard, but listen clear, it is easy. Seek Christ in all things.
Romans 1:28-31
28 And so, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God or approve of Him or consider Him worth the knowing, God gave them over to a base and condemned mind to do things not proper or decent but loathsome,
29 Until they were filled (permeated and saturated) with every kind of unrighteousness, iniquity, grasping and covetous greed, and malice. [They were] full of envy and jealousy, murder, strife, deceit and treachery, ill will and cruel ways. [They were] secret backbiters and gossipers,
30 Slanderers, hateful to and hating God, full of insolence, arrogance, [and] boasting; inventors of new forms of evil, disobedient and undutiful to parents.
31 [They were] without understanding, conscienceless and faithless, heartless and loveless [and] merciless.
In Numbers 31, we see Israel's Justice for Balaam's plotting wickedly to lure the Israelites into sin and worshiping false Gods. He is slain by the sword, and the land of Baal's high places is given to the Israelites as an inheritance. (Exodus 34:11-17)
Sex sells, sin sells, worldly religion is like baal, with sexual immorality as part of their religion. People sacrifice their bodies to the gods of popular music, celebrities, as well as to the rich, the powerful.
God sees the wicked plot wickedness, and the transgressor plot transgressions. All shall be redeemed for the Son of Man, they shall be thus vomited from the land: cast forth, crushed, utterly destroyed by My mighty outstretched hand.
Leviticus 18:24-30
24 Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, for in all these things the nations are defiled which I am casting out before you.
25 And the land is defiled; therefore I visit the iniquity of it upon it, and the land itself vomits out her inhabitants.
26 So you shall keep My statutes and My ordinances and shall not commit any of these abominations, neither the native-born nor any stranger who sojourns among you,
27 For all these abominations have the men of the land done who were before you, and the land is defiled—
28 [Do none of these things] lest the land spew you out when you defile it as it spewed out the nation that was before you.
29 Whoever commits any of these abominations shall be cut off from among [his] people.
30 So keep My charge: do not practice any of these abominable customs which were practiced before you and defile yourselves by them. I am the Lord your God.

| The Amish attempt to do things God's way. |
Live wholesome, pure and holy, live for your Lord, your God, Him and Him only, lest you be cast out as those before you.
He is about to purify, sanctify the lands. We are to look to Him, His commands, not the fear, beholding of men.
Phinehas, mighty man, said this sin must end!
Some cheer, other's eye roll at our chicken coop, our land, God's plan. Spiritually we gather our spears and take to hand saying this sin must end! Therein God shall move by fervent prayers of righteous men. New covering, new righteous (founding) men, His healing shall wash over the country yet again.
Jerusalem, my fellow men, this sin must end!
Give up their life and save it? or
Death in their bed, who has made it?
Our Lord must be resurrected once again, time to accept or reject His Word once again.
The temple of the mind and body, oh Jerusalem, time to hear, time to read those Words thus written in (our hearts).

Balaam prophesies over Israel, tearing down places to worship idols
23 And Balaam said unto Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven oxen and seven rams.
![]()
13 Now Joshua was old and gone far in years [over 100], and the Lord said to him, You have grown old and are gone far in years, and very much of the land still remains to be possessed.
2 This is the land that remains: all the regions of the Philistines and all those of the Geshurites:
3 From the Shihor [River] which is east of Egypt, northward to the boundary of Ekron, all of it counted as Canaanite; there are five rulers of the Philistines, those of Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron, and those of the Avvites;
4 In the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah, which belongs to the Sidonians, to Aphek, to the boundary of the Amorites,
5 And the land of the Gebalites; and all Lebanon toward the east, from Baal-gad below Mount Hermon to the gate of Hamath.
6 As for all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth-maim, even all the Sidonians, I will Myself drive them out from before the Israelites; only allot the land to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you.
7 So now divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.

15 And Moses gave an inheritance to the tribe of the Reubenites according to their families:
16 Their territory was from Aroer on the edge of the Valley of the [river] Arnon, and the city in the midst of the valley, and all the tableland by Medeba;
17 With Heshbon and all its cities which are on the plain; Dibon, Bamoth-baal, and Beth-baal-meon,
18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
19 Kiriathaim, Sibmah, and Zereth-shahar on the hill of the valley,
20 Beth-peor, Pisgah’s slopes, and Beth-jeshimoth,
21 All the cities of the plain and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon, whom Moses defeated along with the leaders of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the princes of Sihon who lived in the land.
22 Balaam son of Beor, the soothsayer, the Israelites also killed with the sword among the rest of their slain.
23 And the border of the Reubenites was the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the Reubenites according to their families, with their cities and villages.

31 Then they took Joseph’s [distinctive] long garment, killed a young goat, and dipped the garment in the blood;
32 And they sent the garment to their father, saying, We have found this! Examine and decide whether it is your son’s tunic or not.
33 He said, My son’s long garment! An evil [wild] beast has devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces.
34 And Jacob tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and mourned many days for his son.

4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, Yet forty days and Nineveh shall be overthrown!
5 So the people of Nineveh believed in God and proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth [in penitent mourning], from the greatest of them even to the least of them.
6 For word came to the king of Nineveh [of all that had happened to Jonah, and his terrifying message from God], and he arose from his throne and he laid his robe aside, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
7 And he made proclamation and published through Nineveh, By the decree of the king and his nobles: Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything; let them not feed nor drink water.
8 But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth and let them cry mightily to God. Yes, let every one turn from his evil way and from the violence that is in his hands.
9 Who can tell, God may turn and revoke His sentence against us [when we have met His terms], and turn away from His fierce anger so that we perish not.
10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God revoked His [sentence of] evil that He had said that He would do to them and He did not do it [for He was comforted and eased concerning them].

11 You have turned my mourning into dancing for me; You have put off my sackcloth and girded me with gladness,

9 This shall be yours of the most holy things, reserved from the fire: every offering of the people, every cereal offering and sin offering and trespass offering of theirs, which they shall render to Me, shall be most holy for you [Aaron] and for your sons.
10 As the most holy thing and in a sacred place shall you eat of it; every male [of your house] shall eat of it. It shall be holy to you.
11 And this also is yours: the heave offering of their gift, with all the wave offerings of the Israelites. I have given them to you and to your sons and to your daughters with you as a continual allowance forever; everyone in your house who is [ceremonially] clean may eat of it.
12 All the best of the oil, and all the best of the [fresh] wine and of the grain, the firstfruits of what they give to the Lord, to you have I given them.
13 Whatever is first ripe in the land, which they bring to the Lord, shall be yours. Everyone who is [ceremonially] clean in your house may eat of it.
14 Every devoted thing in Israel [everything that has been vowed to the Lord] shall be yours.
15 Everything that first opens the womb in all flesh, which they bring to the Lord, whether it be of men or beasts, shall be yours. Nevertheless the firstborn of man you shall surely redeem, and the firstling of unclean beasts you shall redeem.
16 And those that are to be redeemed of them, from a month old shall you redeem, according to your estimate [of their age], for the fixed price of five shekels in silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs.
17 But the firstling of a cow or of a sheep or of a goat you shall not redeem. They [as the firstborn of clean beasts belong to God and] are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood upon the altar and shall burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet and soothing odor to the Lord.
18 And the flesh of them shall be yours, as the wave breast and as the right shoulder are yours.
19 All the heave offerings [the lifted-out and kept portions] of the holy things which the Israelites give to the Lord I give to you and to your sons and your daughters with you, as a continual debt forever. It is a covenant of salt [that cannot be dissolved or violated] forever before the Lord for you [Aaron] and for your posterity with you.

2 Jesus also was invited with His disciples to the wedding.
3 And when the wine was all gone, the mother of Jesus said to Him, They have no more wine!
4 Jesus said to her, [[a]Dear] woman, what is that to you and to Me? [What do we have in common? Leave it to Me.] My time (hour to act) has not yet come.
5 His mother said to the servants, Whatever He says to you, do it.
6 Now there were six waterpots of stone standing there, as the Jewish custom of purification (ceremonial washing) demanded, holding twenty to thirty gallons apiece.
7 Jesus said to them, Fill the waterpots with water. So they filled them up to the brim.
8 Then He said to them, Draw some out now and take it to the manager of the feast [to the one presiding, the superintendent of the banquet]. So they took him some.
9 And when the manager tasted the water just now turned into wine, not knowing where it came from—though the servants who had drawn the water knew—he called the bridegroom
10 And said to him, Everyone else serves his best wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then he serves that which is not so good; but you have kept back the good wine until now!

19 All the males that first open the womb among your livestock are Mine, whether ox or sheep.
20 But the firstling of a donkey [an unclean beast] you shall redeem with a lamb or kid, and if you do not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. And none of you shall appear before Me empty-handed.
21 Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest [on the Sabbath].
22 You shall observe the Feast of Weeks, the firstfruits of the wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the year’s end.
23 Three times in the year shall all your males appear before the Lord God, the God of Israel.
24 For I will cast out the nations before you and enlarge your borders; neither shall any man desire [and molest] your land when you go up to appear before the Lord your God three times in the year.
25 You shall not offer the blood of My sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the Feast of the Passover be left until morning.
26 The first of the firstfruits of your ground you shall bring to the house of the Lord your God. You shall not boil a kid in his mother’s milk.
27 And the Lord said to Moses, Write these words, for after the purpose and character of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.

15 I am the True Vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser.
2 Any branch in Me that does not bear fruit [that stops bearing] He cuts away (trims off, takes away); and He cleanses and repeatedly prunes every branch that continues to bear fruit, to make it bear more and richer and more excellent fruit.
3 You are cleansed and pruned already, because of the word which I have given you [the teachings I have discussed with you].
4 Dwell in Me, and I will dwell in you. [Live in Me, and I will live in you.] Just as no branch can bear fruit of itself without abiding in (being vitally united to) the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you abide in Me.
5 I am the Vine; you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him bears much (abundant) fruit. However, apart from Me [cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing.
6 If a person does not dwell in Me, he is thrown out like a [broken-off] branch, and withers; such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If you live in Me [abide vitally united to Me] and My words remain in you and continue to live in your hearts, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.
8 When you bear (produce) much fruit, My Father is honored and glorified, and you show and prove yourselves to be true followers of Mine.

9 This shall be yours of the most holy things, reserved from the fire: every offering of the people, every cereal offering and sin offering and trespass offering of theirs, which they shall render to Me, shall be most holy for you [Aaron] and for your sons.
10 As the most holy thing and in a sacred place shall you eat of it; every male [of your house] shall eat of it. It shall be holy to you.
11 And this also is yours: the heave offering of their gift, with all the wave offerings of the Israelites. I have given them to you and to your sons and to your daughters with you as a continual allowance forever; everyone in your house who is [ceremonially] clean may eat of it.
12 All the best of the oil, and all the best of the [fresh] wine and of the grain, the firstfruits of what they give to the Lord, to you have I given them.
13 Whatever is first ripe in the land, which they bring to the Lord, shall be yours. Everyone who is [ceremonially] clean in your house may eat of it.
14 Every devoted thing in Israel [everything that has been vowed to the Lord] shall be yours.
15 Everything that first opens the womb in all flesh, which they bring to the Lord, whether it be of men or beasts, shall be yours. Nevertheless the firstborn of man you shall surely redeem, and the firstling of unclean beasts you shall redeem.
16 And those that are to be redeemed of them, from a month old shall you redeem, according to your estimate [of their age], for the fixed price of five shekels in silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs.
17 But the firstling of a cow or of a sheep or of a goat you shall not redeem. They [as the firstborn of clean beasts belong to God and] are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood upon the altar and shall burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet and soothing odor to the Lord.
18 And the flesh of them shall be yours, as the wave breast and as the right shoulder are yours.
19 All the heave offerings [the lifted-out and kept portions] of the holy things which the Israelites give to the Lord I give to you and to your sons and your daughters with you, as a continual debt forever. It is a covenant of salt [that cannot be dissolved or violated] forever before the Lord for you [Aaron] and for your posterity with you.
God Brings Us New Wine.
We are His Branches, He is the Vinedresser
John 2:2-10
2 Jesus also was invited with His disciples to the wedding.
3 And when the wine was all gone, the mother of Jesus said to Him, They have no more wine!
4 Jesus said to her, [[a]Dear] woman, what is that to you and to Me? [What do we have in common? Leave it to Me.] My time (hour to act) has not yet come.
5 His mother said to the servants, Whatever He says to you, do it.
6 Now there were six waterpots of stone standing there, as the Jewish custom of purification (ceremonial washing) demanded, holding twenty to thirty gallons apiece.
7 Jesus said to them, Fill the waterpots with water. So they filled them up to the brim.
8 Then He said to them, Draw some out now and take it to the manager of the feast [to the one presiding, the superintendent of the banquet]. So they took him some.
9 And when the manager tasted the water just now turned into wine, not knowing where it came from—though the servants who had drawn the water knew—he called the bridegroom
10 And said to him, Everyone else serves his best wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then he serves that which is not so good; but you have kept back the good wine until now!
Exodus 34:19-27
19 All the males that first open the womb among your livestock are Mine, whether ox or sheep.
20 But the firstling of a donkey [an unclean beast] you shall redeem with a lamb or kid, and if you do not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. And none of you shall appear before Me empty-handed.
21 Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest [on the Sabbath].
22 You shall observe the Feast of Weeks, the firstfruits of the wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the year’s end.
23 Three times in the year shall all your males appear before the Lord God, the God of Israel.
24 For I will cast out the nations before you and enlarge your borders; neither shall any man desire [and molest] your land when you go up to appear before the Lord your God three times in the year.
25 You shall not offer the blood of My sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the Feast of the Passover be left until morning.
26 The first of the firstfruits of your ground you shall bring to the house of the Lord your God. You shall not boil a kid in his mother’s milk.
27 And the Lord said to Moses, Write these words, for after the purpose and character of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.
John 15:1-8
15 I am the True Vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser.
2 Any branch in Me that does not bear fruit [that stops bearing] He cuts away (trims off, takes away); and He cleanses and repeatedly prunes every branch that continues to bear fruit, to make it bear more and richer and more excellent fruit.
3 You are cleansed and pruned already, because of the word which I have given you [the teachings I have discussed with you].
4 Dwell in Me, and I will dwell in you. [Live in Me, and I will live in you.] Just as no branch can bear fruit of itself without abiding in (being vitally united to) the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you abide in Me.
5 I am the Vine; you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him bears much (abundant) fruit. However, apart from Me [cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing.
6 If a person does not dwell in Me, he is thrown out like a [broken-off] branch, and withers; such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If you live in Me [abide vitally united to Me] and My words remain in you and continue to live in your hearts, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.
8 When you bear (produce) much fruit, My Father is honored and glorified, and you show and prove yourselves to be true followers of Mine.
Matthew 19:30
A Woman's Monthly Cycle Scriptures
1 Timothy 2
13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve; 14 and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. 15 Yet she will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control.
Leviticus 15: 19-20 When a woman has a discharge, and the discharge in her body is blood, she shall be in her menstrual impurity for seven days, and whoever touches her shall be unclean until the evening. And everything on which she lies during her menstrual impurity shall be unclean. Everything also on which she sits shall be unclean. And whoever touches her bed shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean until the evening. And whoever touches anything on which she sits shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean until the evening. Whether it is the bed or anything on which she sits, when he touches it he shall be unclean until the evening.
Leviticus 20: 18 If a man lies with a woman during her menstrual period and uncovers her nakedness, he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood. Both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
Ezekiel 36:17 Son of man, when the house of Israel lived in their own land, they defiled it by their ways and their deeds. Their ways before me were like the uncleanness of a woman in her menstrual impurity.
God's Wrath Is Kindled With Sexual Immorailty Yet Phineas Appeases God's anger by killing two offenders
Numbers 25 Israel settled down and remained in Shittim, and the people began to play the harlot with the daughters of Moab,2 Who invited the [Israelites] to the sacrifices of their gods, and [they] ate and bowed down to Moab’s gods.3 So Israel joined himself to [the god] Baal of Peor. And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel.4 And the Lord said to Moses, Take all the leaders or chiefs of the people, and hang them before the Lord in the sun [after killing them], that the fierce anger of the Lord may turn away from Israel.5 And Moses said to the judges of Israel, Each one of you slay his men who joined themselves to Baal of Peor.6 And behold, one of the Israelites came and brought to his brethren a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses and of all the congregation of Israel while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of Meeting [over the divine judgment and the punishment].7 And when Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the midst of the congregation and took a spear in his hand 8 And went after the man of Israel into the inner room and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel and the woman through her body. Then the [smiting] plague was stayed from the Israelites. 9 Nevertheless those who died in the [smiting] plague were 24,000.10 And the Lord said to Moses,11 Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my wrath away from the Israelites, in that he was jealous with My jealousy among them, so that I did not consume the Israelites in My jealousy.12 Therefore say, Behold, I give to Phinehas the priest My covenant of peace.13 And he shall have it, and his descendants after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was jealous for his God and made atonement for the Israelites.
A Solider is Unclean After Shedding Blood
Numbers 31:19 19 Then Moses said to the soldiers, “If you killed anyone or touched a dead body, you are unclean and have to stay outside the camp for seven days. On the third and seventh days, you must go through a ceremony to make yourselves and your captives clean. 20 Then wash your clothes and anything made from animal skin, goat’s hair, or wood.”
Be Holy In Body and Spirit
I Corinthians 6:19-20
19 Do you not know that your body is the temple (the very sanctuary) of the Holy Spirit Who lives within you, Whom you have received [as a Gift] from God? You are not your own,
20 You were bought with a price [purchased with a [a]preciousness and paid for, [b]made His own]. So then, honor God and bring glory to Him in your body.
Romans 1:28-31
28 And so, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God or approve of Him or consider Him worth the knowing, God gave them over to a base andcondemned mind to do things not proper or decent but loathsome,
29 Until they were filled (permeated and saturated) with every kind of unrighteousness, iniquity, grasping and covetous greed, and malice. [They were] full of envy and jealousy, murder, strife, deceit and treachery, ill will and cruel ways. [They were] secret backbiters and gossipers,
30 Slanderers, hateful to and hating God, full of insolence, arrogance, [and] boasting; inventors of new forms of evil, disobedient and undutiful to parents.
31 [They were] without understanding, conscienceless and faithless, heartless and loveless [and] merciless.
