10-4-2012- 9AM-12 NOON- 3PM- JEW HOURS OF PRAYER
DANIEL 6: 10 = NOW WHEN DANIEL KNEW THAT THE WRITING WAS SIGNED, HE WENT INTO HIS HOUSE; AND HIS WINDOWS BEING OPEN IN HIS CHAMBER TOWARDS JERUSALEM, HE KNEELED UPON HIS KNEES THREE TIMES A DAY, AND PRAYED, AND GAVE THANKS BEFORE YAHWEH AS HE DID AFORETIME.
"REMARKS"
IT IS A COMMON PRACTICE THAT AS YOU READ THROUGH THE SCRIPTURES, THAT THERE WERE CERTAIN SPECIAL TIME PERIODS FOR SPECIAL EVENTS, OF WHICH IS MOSTLY PRAYER TIME. MUSLIMS ALSO AS YOU MAY KNOW, ALSO HAVE SPECIAL PRAYER CALL TIMES.
THESE ARE THE ISRAELI AND JEWISH PRAYER TIMES;
THE 3RD HOUR IS = TO 9AM
THE 6TH HOUR =12 NOON
THE 9TH HOUR = 3PM
REMEMBER ISRAEL AND JUDAH LIVED BY A DIFFERENT TIME SCHEDULE THAN WE DO. THEIR DAY STARTS AT SUNDOWN AND ENDS AT SUNDOWN. THOUGH CONFUSING, IT REALLY ISN'T.
REMEMBER ALSO, AS I HAVE PREACHED FROM SOLOMON'S TEMPLE DEDICATION PRAYER, IN WHICH WHEN WE PRAY TOWARDS JERUSALEM AND THE TEMPLE, OR NOW THE TEMPLE MOUNT, WHERE THE TEMPLE WAS, THAT OUR PRAYERS WOULD BE HEARD.
THE EXAMPLE OF DANIELS EXPOSITION OF HOW HE PRAYED, IS WHAT WE SHOULD CONSIDER. IT SURE WOULDN'T HURT TO UNDERSTAND AND DO WHAT WAS PRAYED BY SOLOMON THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO.
THIS IS JUST ANOTHER TRADITION SET BY OUR JEWISH BROTHERS AND SISTERS, WHICH I FEEL IS A GOOD TRADITION TO STOP DURING THE DAY AT THESE TIMES AND STOP AND PRAY OR MEDITATE, FOR A FEW MOMENTS OR MINUTES, TO THANK YAH'WEH, THROUGH JESUS, YAH'SHUA, FOR THINGS AND GIVE HIM AND THEIR, LOVE AND ADORATION DUE THEM.
