Learning Hebrew

Baruch, ברכה, means blessing in Hebrew. Baruch is also the name of an individual that Jeremiah converted to Christianity despite much adversity. We learn that GOD Almighty gives us blessings when we decide to love GOD Almighty above the temporary and imperfect things of the world. When we decide to worship GOD Almighty above everything and respect humanity, we have favor and blessings. We learn that the favor and blessings are impressive and allow us to persevere worshiping GOD Almighty. To David, the favor and blessings were being able to defeat his adversaries with unchanging fidelity to GOD Almighty. David was able to defeat Goliath, Saul, Abner, Doeg, 3,000 of Saul's soldiers, Ish-bosheth, Hanun, 7-9 hostile nations, and Absalom. David trusted in GOD Almighty through adversity and prospered being even more impressive. We learn that this explains the manner that loving GOD Almighty above everything allows us to have favor and blessings that can not be compared to. That is why we choose unchanging fidelity to GOD Almighty. When David had serenity and no longer had adversity, he also worshiped GOD Almighty instructing the Scriptures and Psalms to Israel. Israel also prospered unlike any other time due to the worship of GOD Almighty. David organized the priests to worship GOD Almighty day and night, and Israel abounded. David cared about the worship of GOD Almighty and instructed others to worship GOD Almighty. GOD Almighty also favored Israel for forsaking idol worship and worshiping GOD Almighty. That is why we choose to worship the Maker of Heaven and earth.
