Every Page My Dad Bent, And What Each One Is For

1. When He's Scared Of A VideoEnoch 10:10 · Enoch 14:4

This is the first page Dad bent, and the one Owen uses most. Enoch 10 is what the fallen angels asked God for their sons:

"they hope to live an eternal life"

Enoch 14 is God's answer:

"your petition will not be granted unto you throughout all the days of eternity"

Now when a video scares him, Owen doesn't carry it all day. He brings me the book open to Enoch 14 and puts his finger on the line. "What did God say?" "No."

2. The Bus-Stop PrayerTobit 5:21

In Tobit, a father sends his son out the door on a long trip. His wife starts crying, and he tells her:

"For a good angel will go with him. His journey will be prospered, and he will return safe and sound."

Dad prays it every morning, about the time the school buses go by. Now I do too, at the window while Owen gets on.

Tobit isn't in most Bibles. It's in this one.

3. For What's In His HeadJubilees 12:20

This is Abraham praying, the night before God called him out of his father's house:

"Deliver me from evil spirits who rule over human thoughts, preventing them from leading me astray from You, my God, and establish me and my descendants forever"

The tablet doesn't come for his body. It comes for his thoughts.

This is the one I pray when Owen's been quiet all afternoon and I don't know what he's been watching.

4. Over The Whole HouseEnoch 100:5

"And over all the righteous and holy He will appoint guardians from amongst the holy angels To guard them as the apple of an eye"

The apple of your eye is the part you protect before you even think about it. You blink before you know anything's coming.

Dad reads this one over his house at night, room by room. I've started doing it in ours.

5. BedtimeJubilees 19:28

Abraham, blessing his grandson:

"Mastema's spirits will never govern you or your offspring to turn you from Yahweh, who remains your God forever henceforth."

(Mastema is the name Jubilees gives the leader of the evil spirits.)

You or your offspring. That's Owen, and Owen's kids, and theirs.

I read it over him every night now, with my hand on the page where his name is written.

6. For YouEnoch 81:6 · Jubilees 10:13

God gave Enoch one year left with his son:

"that thou mayst teach thy children and record (it) for them"

When the demons came for Noah's grandsons, Noah "recorded everything in a book… thus preventing evil spirits from harming Noah's descendants," and handed it to his son.

The elites are buying more years. Enoch had one, and he wrote it down. This page is the reason Dad writes names in the front.
