‘On the Road!

Herod’s Madness?

We tend to forget so much of the Christmas story, since it is all condensed into one night, but the truth is it covers two years!

After the Magi, wise men of the east came and presented their gifts to Jesus, He was now a toddler and after they left Joseph was instructed to leave and go to Egypt because a terror was to begin?

Jesus would always be a traveler from a child to adulthood and even after His resurrection He walked with the men of Emmaus!

Luke 2:1-16, 24:13, John 1:1-18, Romans 3:21-31, Hebrews 9:26-27.

A happy and peaceful Christmas and a prosperous New Year to you All?
The Shepherds!

Itinerant Workers?

Today the word itinerant is usually associated with the travelling community and are seen as the lowest in most societies, but this is perhaps more son in Europe than many other parts of the world!

The shepherds were out in the field looking after the sheep, near a tree for cover and sleep, when the Angel of the Lord appeared to them and they were startled?

In the Old Testament we are told they lived in tents, since if this was winter that where they would be, moving on daily to a new place!

Genesis 47:3, Psalm 23:1, Song of Songs 1:8, Luke 2:8, 20.
Travelers from Afar!

The Magi or the three wise Men/Kings?

These three men set out from their origins at the same time and it took them two years to meet with not the baby Jesus, as the traditional Christmas story tells us, but to a one year old toddler!

And how do we know this, because when Herod ordered the death of the children, it was babies to two year old’s and the Angel later told Joseph to flee to Egypt with the mother and the child?

These three men brought Jesus gifts, more so for His death and resurrection, they may have been from pagan cultures of the time, but they had faith to believe and traveled far to meet up and follow the star!

Matthew 2:1-16.
That inner Comfort!

Remembering the lost to Conflicts?

Many travelling peoples were caught up in the first and second world wars, but also in Ireland with the troubles and innocent people were shot dead by the security forces who did not care!

When people are pushed into helping without a choice, we tend to forget them, because they are insignificant to the glorious dead with words on a stone to a place that is hard to access or we find that we are not welcomed?

But through faith what God can give to us is more precious than the coldness of stone memorials, we have the warmth and the comfort of the Holy Spirit in our bodies, who gives us His peace!

Psalm 39:12, John 14:27, 2 Corinthians 1:3-7, 2 Timothy 1:2, Titus 1:4, Revelation 3:20.
A tough Ministry!

Witnessing to Travelers?

What worries many settled people is that of getting kidnapped and put into slavery by some of the communities, but this is not so for all and again it has become another stigma in society to isolate people not like themselves!

But those of the outside and of the community are continuing to have great success and many continue to come to faith, while not abandoning their traditions or culture?

Standing up to evil, reading the cards and spiritism will save us from getting lost, while from within we have the opportunity to witness to the outside to, as to the dangers of these matters, now that Halloween is upon us!

Ezekiel 34:5-6, 11-12, Matthew 9:36, 1 Timothy 1:6, 6:10, Hebrews 4:12-13.
The Amazon….

October 16th, 2025

is becoming an eye Opener?

For over two hundred years science believed that the peoples of the Amazonas region were settled in their respective tribal land and villages of many types, including boat houses and gardens!

But what is being discovered most were nomadic and only returning to some places to worship their respective gods, while other constructed cites with pyramids and mass storage, only to move on a few years later and never come back?

It was probably the weather that forced these city dwellers to move, while it could be too many snakes and hostile animals for others, but our conceptions of travelers remains too narrow minded!

2 Samuel 7:6, Job 39:25, Psalm 107:4, 138:6, Proverbs 31:14, Ezekiel 34:6, Hebrews 11:13.
Mamre (Mamray)

August 19th, 2025

A plain near to Hebron,

Abram settled in this plain near to Hebron C-Israel and acknowledged God for getting him thus far by building an altar and sacrificing a burnt offering on it!

The origins of the name Mamre is an ancient one of Amorite source as mentioned in Strongs H4471, the meaning being lusty of vigor?

When we have been travelling for some time and find a place of rest then we should worship God by thanking Him for a our safety and a place of rest!

Genesis 13:18, 14:13, 24, Matthew 11;25, Hebrews 3:7.
Scavage!

July 9th, 2025

Old habits die Hard?

Generally most people in the world who are settled do not understand why travelling peoples have to scavage, but perhaps they should take note of people across India and Africa, who need to make money to buy food!

There is much brass in muck and with this consumer age of waste, much to be reclaimed and sold on in scrap from white goods to computer parts and much that can be recycled?

Genesis 41:33, Nehemiah 4:2, Job 27:16, Matthew 7:8, Luke 14:35. Philippians 3:8.
Our need to Witness!

June 19th, 2025

It does not matter what people think of us?

The many people who hate travelers are the walking dead, cold to sympathy and that even to their own, they also are probably mean as they think that they are good living!

But as believers we have a responsibility to share our faith with all without bias and the benefits are in the Eternity for us, but to captures a soul also has its blessings on this side too in helping us to be in serving our Lord Jesus?

Proverbs 3:18, 11:30, Daniel 12:13, 1 Corinthians 9:19-22, James 11:20.
Please Leave?

June 4th, 2025

The cause of Fear!

For many a traveler to be asked to leave a place is nothing strange and here in the New Testament of the Holy Bible we have one instant in which Jesus is asked to leave! Matthew 8:34.

And in the other the Apostle Paul is also asked to leave, after they witnessed the power of God manifested! Acts 16:39.

Many believers who have parked up in their respective vehicles have been asked by scared people to move on, if they overstay their allotted time on the other hand people fear robbery, or being attacked?
