To say, to speak with authority. Jesus said and it was so. When Jesus speaks everything listens. His words carry the weight of creation behind them.

When Jesus teaches His disciples to pray, He begins with the most radical word imaginable — Father. In the ancient world, approaching God as Father was almost unthinkable. Jesus opens the door and says: this is how you come. Not as a subject before a king. As a child before a Father who already knows what you need.

to fawn or crouch to, i.e. (literally or figuratively) prostrate oneself in homage (do reverence to, adore)

Jesus. Iesous. The Greek form of Yeshua meaning the LORD saves. The name given before His birth. In His name is salvation healing and authority over every power of darkness.

To believe, to trust, to have faith. Pisteuo. Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved. Believing is more than intellectual agreement. It is a transfer of trust to Jesus.

No, not, never. Mé. The softest Greek negative, used to deny what is possible or expected. When God says no, he means it.

Woman, wife. Gynē. From Eve to Mary, women occupy indispensable roles in the story of redemption. Honor her.

To come, to go, to arrive. Erchomai. Come Lord Jesus. The final prayer of Scripture is an invitation. The church lives in expectation of His return.

When, at the time when, after. When the fullness of time had come God sent His Son. God's timing is always right. He never acts too early or too late.

Neither, nor, not even. Oute. What God has joined, no force in creation can separate. Neither death nor life, neither height nor depth. Nothing qualifies the love of God.

Mountain, hill. Oros. I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD. Mountains are a reminder to look up not just around.

Jerusalem, the holy city. Hierosólyma. The city of David, the place of the crucifixion, the site of Pentecost. All of redemptive history converges here. Look to what happened in Jerusalem and understand the heart of God.
