You are the light of the world. – Matthew 5:14-16!!!

14 “You are the light of the world.
A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
15 Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.
16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”
– Matthew 5:14-16

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty!!!

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord , He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

Because thou hast made the Lord , which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
– Psalm 91.

Cat is the only domestic animal not mentioned in the bible!!!

Cats may be the most popular pets on the world and associated with humans since at least 8000 BCE, but it seems prior to this time they were not as popular, at least according to the Bible. 10,000-year-old engravings and pottery have been discovered by experts which depict cats as belonging to a date near the Neolithic period (late stone age), not to mention a joint human-feline grave burial on Cyprus aged 9,500 years.domestic-cat

In ancient Egypt, the cat was revered and they were considered deities in the form of the god Bastet from the third millennium BCE.
Some experts are of the view that ancient Egyptians may have tamed and bred feline to produce a distinct species by the 20th or 19th century BCE.

The Bible may have an enviable historical span but surprisingly, the domestic cat is not mentioned even once (some sources say it’s mentioned once), as opposed to the dog who’s honoured with 14 mentions.
This disparity may depend on the version of the Bible, for instance the original 1611 King James Bible which includes the Apocrypha, mentions the cat once.
