Energy, Frequency & Vibration #17 - Wall of Jericho

Energy, Frequency & Vibration #17 - Wall of Jericho

This is part 17 in the series on "Energy, Frequency & Vibration."  Last month we narrowed our focus mostly on vibration.  While all three (energy, frequency & vibration) are present at the same time, for the next few posts in this series we are going to focus more on the vibration aspect.

Just as a reminder: 

 

Vibration - a periodic motion of the particles of an elastic body or medium in alternately opposite direction from the position of equilibrium when that equilibrium has been disturbed (eg.  music tones).

Today we are going to study the fall of the 'Wall of Jericho" in the Old Testament.

Before getting to the Scripture passages, I wanted to share some of the research I found online about vibration caused by our movement and the effect it has on the buildings we use.

For the most part our movement only causes building decline over many years.  However, when talking about a stadium where crowds might be jumping up and down (or bobbing) - that is when damage is a possibility.  Just keep in mind that stadiums are made to withstand that type of movement.

Below is a list of the vibration strength measured in Hz that our moving around has:

Walking: 1.5 – 2.2 Hz

Running: 2 – 4 Hz

Descending stairs: 1 – 4.5 Hz

Synchronized crowd bobbing: 1 – 3 Hzz

Keep that list in mind as we study the Wall of Jericho in the book of Joshua.

We are going to skip over the portion in this story that talks about Rahab because she is one of the people of faith who we will be studying in the new series called "By Your Faith" (click HERE to view the first post in that series).

Let me remind you of what just happened to the Israelites - Moses passed away and Joshua took over leading them into their promised land of Canaan.  The first city that they came to was Jericho - a fortified city with a 20 foot high wall around its entirety.  I researched how far the distance is around the city would have been and I found conflicting information.  The shortest was a half a mile around and the longest was 1.5 miles (either way it is still significant).

Let's look at the first five verses in Joshua chapter 6: 

God gave Joshua precise instructions - the entire army were to march around the Wall of Jericho once a day for 6 days while blowing their trumpets and then on the final 7th day they were to walk around seven times. (see verses below):  

Just imagine the rumbling that the entire army marching around the wall must have caused.   The final vibration that collapsed the wall was the shout that the entire army yelled (see Scripture below):

Now remember, the Canaanites were Baal worshipers and they did vile, unthinkable acts like sacrificing their own children!  That's why even the possessions (like idols) that belonged to the Canaanites had to be utterly destroyed.

How amazing that must have been to see the entire wall crumble in front of them (just from following God's instructions exactly).

Palak Paneer Patties (a Modern Twist on a Curry Classic)

Palak Paneer Patties

(a Modern Twist on a Curry Classic)

Palak Paneer is curry dish centered around homemade cheese called "Paneer".  This cheese is cut into cubes and sauteed in butter before adding to the tomato, spinach cream sauce that is then served over rice.  Today I am sharing my twist on that recipe.  I made the rice & cheese into patties and then poured the sauce over the patties.

Another twist is that I used homemade cottage cheese instead of homemade paneer (simply because it is more moist and is easier to form patties.  Paneer and homemade cottage cheese have the same flavor - just the texture is different).

Below are links to both homemade cheeses (Paneer & cottage cheese):

Printable Recipe

Ingredients for Patties

3 cups homemade cottage cheese

2 1/2 cups cooked jasmine rice (I used jasmine instead of basmati because jasmine is stickier and easier to form patties)(measure 2 1/2 cups after cooked)

1 egg (lightly whisked)

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp turmeric (powder)

1/4 tsp Indian chili pepper (or cayenne) ground 

1/2 tsp garam masala 

1/2 onion (chopped and sauteed in olive oil with 1 tsp cumin seed)

flour for dredging 

butter

Ingredients for Sauce/Gravy

other half of onion

1 cup frozen chopped spinach

1 quart home-canned whole tomatoes (drained)

1 cup heavy cream (or more if needed)

2 cloves garlic (minced)

1 tsp cumin seed

1 tblsp (or more) garam masala

Indian chili pepper to taste

1 whole cayenne pepper

salt to taste

1 tblsp honey

fresh cilantro to garnish on top

 Begin by preparing the patty ingredients as listed:  sauté the onion & cumin, cook the rice (make cheese at least the day before).  In a large bowl combine the egg, cottage cheese and sauteed onion/cumin - stir until combined.  Then add the spices and stir again.  Finally, add the rice and stir until combined (see 3 pictures below): 

 

Now form six equal patties (see below).  Cover each patty with flour and then place them on a parchment lined cookie sheet.  Dollop each patty with a little butter (top and bottom) (see picture below).

Place in a preheated 375 degree oven for 15 minutes on each side (or until desired golden brown color is achieved.

Sauce/Gravy Instructions

Sauté the other half of the onion (chopped), cumin & garlic in a little olive oil for a couple minutes (medium heat).  Then add the frozen spinach and continue sautéing  (see picture below).  

Add the drained canned tomatoes - continue cooking and stirring occasionally  (see picture below).  

Add the rest of the spices and cook for a few minutes.  Then add the cream and honey (see picture below).  

Pour the chunky sauce into a deep bowl and blend using an immersible blender (remove whole cayenne pepper first) until it resembles the picture bottom left.  Add the frozen peas and cook over low heat for a few minutes until the peas are cooked (see picture below).  (NOTE - at this point if the sauce is not saucy enough then add some more heavy cream until your desired liquid consistency is achieved.  

 

Once the patties have been baked on both sides, remove from the oven (see picture below).  

Place a patty on each plate and pour the sauce covering the patty.  Garnish with garden fresh cilantro (see pictures below).  

Serve & ENJOY!

By Your FAITH #1 - Jesus' Miracles

By Your FAITH #1 - Jesus' Miracles

We are starting a new series today and I am calling it "By Your Faith".  So many times when Jesus healed someone we read that He said: "your faith has healed you" or "it is by your faith that you are healed."  This phrase repetition warranted a deeper study.  We will begin studying Jesus' Miracles and in the months to come we will be going through Hebrews chapter 11.  This chapter in the book of Hebrews goes through many prophets and important Old Testament people/characters and specifically focuses on their faith.

Our topic today is:  Jesus' Miracles

I know, you might be thinking: "why study the miracles that Jesus performed because I can't do that."  If you recall, in the "God's Power Within Us" series we learned that we will do even greater works than what Jesus did (see passage below):

 Click HERE to view a compilation post combining the "God's Power Within Us" series with the "FearNot" series: 

"God's Power Inside Us Means No Fear of the World Outside"

There are 7 different ways that people's faith in Jesus manifested in a healing or a miracle:

1.  By touch/hands-on

2.  By the faith of others

3.  By touching a blessed object

4.  By asking/by our words

5.  By persistence

6.  Faith with thankfulness

7.  Faith for any & all nationalities

Let's study each faith example in more detail.

Hands-on/ By Touch

In this miracle there was a ruler whose daughter had died.  The ruler had faith that if Jesus just touched her daughter she would be healed and live.  Jesus took the girl's hand and she got up!  He touched her hand - just like the ruler believed beforehand.  (read passage below)

By the Faith of Others

There was a paralyzed man who was brought to Jesus for healing.  In Mark's version of this miracle (Mark 2:1-12) they had to lower the paralyzed man through the roof because the crowd was impossible to get through.  The faith in Jesus that these men had who carried the paralytic healed their paralyzed friend. (read passage below).  This is proof to me how important our prayers are for those around us.  Our faith can help others!

By Touching a Blessed Object

This example is truly amazing - this woman had a twelve year nonstop menstruation and she believed that she just had to touch the hem of Jesus' cloak.  Just the hem.  I picture her pointing a finger and barely touching the hem.  That's all it took and she was healed.  (read passage below).

By Asking & By Our Words

In this miracle, a blind man called out to Jesus twice.  Jesus then made a point of hearing what the blind man wanted (I'm sure Jesus knew what he wanted but the man had to say it).  The man answered "Lord, I want to see."  And then he was healed!  (read passage below).

Remember how important our words are - "Life & death are in the power of the tongue." (Proverbs 18:21).  All of our words send out a frequency (click HERE to read: "Energy, Frequency & Vibration #2 - God's Word")

By Persistence

This is example is a parable called "The Parable of the Persistent Widow" (I wrote a previous post about this parable - click HERE to read that post).  The widow in this story did not want healing but rather she wanted justice (actually, in today's world justice is a miracle).  It was because of her faith and never giving up - she believed that in the end that she would receive justice.  (read passage below)

Faith & Thankfulness

Being thankful is so difficult during hardships but being thankful when a one receives a miracle should be easy.  In this example there were TEN men who were healed of leprosy and only ONE of them thanked Jesus.  ONLY ONE.  It was his faith and his gratitude to God that ended in healing. (read passage below)

Faith for Any & All Nationalities

Last but not least - proof that faith and Jesus' miracles are for everyone and not just for Israel.  The faith example in this miracle was the faith of a non-Jew centurion.  Jesus even said "I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel."  (read passage below)

By our faith in Jesus Christ we are healed!
