H3536 kibshân

כִּבְשָׁן

kib-shawn'

furnace.

Looking for Greek G3536 Nineuḯtēs? It has the same number in Strong's Greek lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of H3536. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.

When kibshân is spoken over you, Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against Scripture with people you trust, and return to it in a year.

When kibshân is spoken over you

Words like this one get spoken over people: in a prayer line, in a message from a friend, in a moment nobody planned. The lexicon gives you what kibshân means. What God is saying to you through it is yours to record and weigh.

Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against verses like Genesis 19:28 with people you trust, and return to it in a year to see what came of it.
