CRUMBS FROM YOUR TABLE

From the brightest star
​Comes the blackest hole
How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, "I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God.... I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.” But you are brought down to the realm of the dead, to the depths of the pit. Isaiah 14:12-15 NIV
 
Jesus: "I watched Satan fall from heaven like a flash of lightning." Luke 10:18 NRSV
You had so much to offer
​Why did you offer your soul?
Jesus: "What good can it do a man to gain the whole world at the price of his own soul? What can a man offer to buy back his soul once he has lost it?" Mark 8:36-37 PHILLIPS
And you speak of signs and wonders
​but I need something other
So the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great terror and with signs and wonders. Deuteronomy 26:8 NIV
 
He sent signs and wonders into your midst, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants. Psalm 135:9 NIV
 
Jesus: "Unless you people see signs and wonders, you simply will not believe." John 4:48 NASB
Would you deny for others
What you demand for yourself?
Jesus: "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets." Matthew 7:12 NIV
I would believe if I was able
​But I'm waiting on the crumbs from your table
A Canaanite woman... came to him, crying out, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly."
Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, "Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us."
He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel."
The woman came and knelt before him. "Lord, help me!" she said.
He replied, "It is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to the dogs."
"Yes it is, Lord," she said. "Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master's table."
Then Jesus said to her, "Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted." And her daughter was healed at that moment. Matthew 15:22-28 NIV
