Video of the Day: Clip from the 2000 movie “Gone in 60 Seconds”
Bible Verse of the Day:
Now a wind went out from the Lord and drove quail in from the sea. It scattered them up to two cubits[b] deep all around the camp, as far as a day’s walk in any direction. 32 All that day and night and all the next day the people went out and gathered quail. No one gathered less than ten homers.[c] Then they spread them out all around the camp. 33 But while the meat was still between their teeth and before it could be consumed, the anger of the Lord burned against the people, and he struck them with a severe plague. 34 Therefore the place was named Kibroth Hattaavah,because there they buried the people who had craved other food, Numbers 11:31-34.
Biblical Connection:
Every human being possesses at least one weak spot, something they can’t say no to. This bad habit may be alcohol, caffeine, food, nicotine, opioids, pornography, sex or shopping. In the film Gone in 60 Seconds, boosting cars is their addiction. Subsequently, as Memphis Raines attempts to recruit former members of his team, Sway initially rejects this offer to return to her former life.
In the original King James Version of the Bible, Moses uses the word lust in place of craved for food. Whenever you are living in poverty, a good meal is something hard to come by. As Israel is wandering in the wilderness for 2 years, they become broken, lusting for more than manna and water. This lustful craving led to a plague where Israel buried many family members.
Closing Song:
While human beings are trying to sleep, demons of lust are working overtime. While these spiritual entities vary, female demon’s called succubus prey and men while incubus, male demons of lust, tempt woman. This is why it’s essential for Christians to take their thoughts captive to avoid experiencing the horrors of a real-life Halloween.
