scripture on a bow
« on: October 12, 2010, 05:54:00 PM »
Have noticed a lot of personalized things written on bow limbs (name, message, etc).  Am wondering what Biblical scriptures you have on a bow, have seen on a bow or think would 'fit' on a bow.  If you have any, post the scripture and the references.
thanks

Psalm 91:5.  I wrote the verse along an ipe lamination using a quill pen and India ink on the BBO I built:

 
"Walk softly...and carry a bent stick."

"And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God the Father through him."  Col. 3:17

S0me archery-related Scripture passages:

And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer. --- Genesis 21:20

But God himself will shoot them with his arrows, suddenly striking them down. --- Psalm 64:7

As arrows [are] in the hand of a mighty man; so [are] children of the youth. --- Psalm 127:4

There are others...

Genesis 10:9 He was a mighty hunter before the Lord: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord.

This is not hunting related but is a Proverb that I have repeated to myself many times in my life when things happen that I don't understand.  

Proverbs 19:21

Many are the plans in a man's heart,
but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.

I named my Black Widow "Boanerge", which is what Jesus called James and John from Mark 3:17 meaning "Son of Thunder".

Isaiah 40:31 has always been a favorite for me.  Psalms 118:8 is also one of my favorites and of course, my signature.
I use the King James Version, sounds poetic and solid.

I just read this verse this morning and thought it would be an appropriate Scripture on a bow or in an archery related signature.

"But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God...."  Genesis 49:24
God  now commandeth all men everywhere to repent.  Acts 17:30

"In His name"

I'm not sure, this may not be a scripture verse, probably a phrase one says in closing to prayer.

I have a JD Lund Mojo Stick and a Howard Hill Black Badger, both have "Crosses" in the riser. That worked for me.

A part of Matt 23:39... and a few others places...

 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord

In Hebrew it is common as baruch haba beshem adonai.
Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.
