“For three years they strengthened the kingdom and made Rechav`am the son of Slomo strong, because for three years they followed the way of life of David and Shlomo.”
2 Chronicles 11:17 CJB
Why was Rehoboam successful for three years? Because he followed the ways of David and Solomon, who followed Adonai! Success is in Adonai!
“How happy is everyone who fears Adonai, who lives by His ways.”
Psalm 128:1 CJB
The idea here isn’t to fear Adonai, but fear walking without Him! Going through life without Adonai should really be scary! We need Adonai in every aspect of our lives!
“Blessed is the man who trusts Adonai; Adonai will be his security.”
Jeremiah 17:7 CJB
We really need to simply just trust in Adonai in everything! Why? Let’s read the next verse to answer that!
“He will be like a tree planted near water; it spreads out its roots by the river; it does not notice when heat comes; and its foliage is luxuriant; it is not anxious in a year of drought but keeps on yielding fruit.”
Jeremiah 17:8 CJB
So when we trust in Adonai we will be fruitful, when we allow the deceptions of the world it will lead us into disaster!
Have a blessed day following Adonai!
Shabbat Shalom!
