The earth will answer with new wine…Hosea 2:22 God chose Hosea to speak of a new day. A day with God would God, will betroth you to Me in faithfulness, and you shall know the LORD, Hosea 2:20. A Day when God will answer heaven and earth, Verse 21. A day when the earth shall answer with […]
Best of the new wine…Numbers 18:12 The first time ‘new wine’ appears in the Bible is in Numbers 18:12: All the best of the oil, all the best of the new wine and the grain, their firstfruits which they offer to the LORD, I have given them to you. The offering of firstfruits to the Lord […]
Be filled with the Spirit…Ephesians 5:18 Strange. Paul in Ephesians 5:18 says to not be drunk with wine, but be filled with the Spirit.
