THREE
There was an evening a few days back when I was resting on my couch after talking to Tanya about things of the Lord. I dozed off into what seemed to be the Netherworld - that state between sleep and conscienceness. Then I heard a voice speaking to me saying, "Three is important to God. Look at these examples." Then the Holy Spirit brought to mind some occasions in Scripture where 3 was key. Right as the last example was being shown me I was waking up and speaking, saying, "Wow, Lord! I did not know that three meant that much to you."
Tanya was dozing too and I woke her with my declaration out of my sleep and she said, "What did you say?" So, I told her of my experience.
To many Christians and non-Christians alike numerology is not a surprise in the Bible. Numbers bring us logic and order, definite equations with definite outcomes that can be counted on for eternity. And Christians have The God of Order and Purpose. The first 7 bulleted examples are the ones the Holy Spirit gave me concerning the 3's. Afterward, the next grouping of bulleted examples are further research.
