SCRIPTURES CAST BY LOT WITH ROUGH NOTES
Acts 4:24
23And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them. 24And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
25Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
26The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
27For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together, 28For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done. 29And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word, 30By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus. 31And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
Romans 15
5Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus: 6That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.

1 Kings 15 and 1 Chronicles 11
Both of these chapters reveal the heart of King David whose heart in oneness with God pleased Almighty God.
1Kgs 15:3-5 (KJV)
3And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father.4Nevertheless for David’s sake did the LORD his God give him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem:5Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
1Kgs 15:11-13 (KJV)
11And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his father.12And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.13And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burnt it by the brook Kidron.
1Chr 11:1-3 (KJV)
1Then all Israel gathered themselves to David unto Hebron, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.2And moreover in time past, even when Saul was king, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD thy God said unto thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be ruler over my people Israel.3Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the LORD by Samuel.1Chr 11:15-19 (KJV)
15Now three of the thirty captains went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the host of the Philistines encamped in the valley of Rephaim.16And David was then in the hold, and the Philistines’ garrison was then at Bethlehem.17And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, that is at the gate!18And the three brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but David would not drink of it, but poured it out to the LORD,19And said, My God forbid it me, that I should do this thing: shall I drink the blood of these men that have put their lives in jeopardy? for with the jeopardy of their lives they brought it. Therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mightiest.

Exodus 10 and 2 Chronicles 32
In both chapters there is a heathen king that is seeking to conquer and hold Israel captive. When they continue to defy Israel and the God of Israel God multiplies His signs and wonders to the deliverance of Israel and the destruction of those kings and their armies.
In this day God will begin to multiply His signs and wonders against those who are resisting the righteousness and liberty of the people of God in the land.
Exod 10:1-2 (KJV)
1And the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him:2And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son’s son, what things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am the LORD.
2Chr 32:21-23 (KJV)
21And the LORD sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword.22Thus the LORD saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all other, and guided them on every side.23And many brought gifts unto the LORD to Jerusalem, and presents to Hezekiah king of Judah: so that he was magnified in the sight of all nations from thenceforth.
Exod 10:20-26 (KJV)
20But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go.21And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.22And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:23They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.24And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you.25And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the LORD our God.26Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the LORD our God; and we know not with what we must serve the LORD, until we come thither.

Job 32 and Luke 10 plus Psalms 29
The common theme discovered in these three chapters is the voice of the LORD. In Job 32 there is the holding back of speaking as the voice of the LORD until the time when God releases one to speak His word. In Luke 10 there is the voice of the LORD spoken with authority through the name of Jesus Christ to cast out demons and the prioritizing of hearing the voice of the LORD over even the basic needs of life. In Psalms 29 the voice of the LORD is described in its power and blessing.
Luke 10:17-20 (KJV)
17And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.18And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.19Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.20Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
Luke 10:38-42 (KJV)
38Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.39And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.40But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.41And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:42But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
Ps 29:1-11 (KJV)
1A Psalm of David. Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.2Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.3The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters.4The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.5The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.6He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.7The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.8The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.9The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.10The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever.11The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.

Psalms 55 and Exodus 10 plus Ezekiel 30
In both of these chapters there is the breaking of covenant by the wicked. The consequences are the destruction of the king and those nations. I also received Exodus 10 on Wednesday – 2days ago. Ezekiel 30 is about Egypt being judged by God.
Ps 55:16-23 (KJV)
16As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.17Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.18He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.19God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.20He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant.21The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.22Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.23But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.
Exod 10:27-29 (KJV)
27But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not let them go.28And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou seest my face thou shalt die.29And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, I will see thy face again no more.
Ezek 30:7-12 (KJV)
7And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.8And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.9In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in the day of Egypt: for, lo, it cometh.10Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.11He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.12And I will make the rivers dry, and sell the land into the hand of the wicked: and I will make the land waste, and all that is therein, by the hand of strangers: I the LORD have spoken it.
Ezek 30:26 (KJV)
26And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them among the countries; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
