“Yitz’chak spoke to Avraham his father: My father? He answered, Here I am, my son. He said, I see the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering? Avarham replied, God will provide Himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son; and they both went together.”
Genesis 22:7-8 CJB

Just like here with Avraham and Yitz’chak (Abraham and Isaac), God will always appear to us in our times of need! Why? Because of His great love for us and He always takes care of our needs in His perfect timing!

“God, who gives me grace, will come to me; God will let me gaze in triumph at my foes.”
Psalm 59:10 CJB

Everyday we run into our foes, the things of the world, and God always appears in the nick of time to save us from our enemies! That gives us a testimony of His great love for us and the victories we have in Him!

“I call on Adonai, who is worthy of praise; and I am saved from my enemies.”
2 Samuel 22:4 CJB

Today, we should be well aware that the world is filled with our enemies and when we call on the LORD, He will appear to save us from them!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!

“After these things, I heard what sounded like the roar of a huge crowd in heaven, shouting, Halleluyah! The victory, the glory, the power of our God!”
Revelation 19:1 CJB

We, too, need to be vocal on how good and great our God is and don’t worry about the push back from the world! Remember, we already have victory in Yeshus!

“Not to us, Adonai, not to us, but to Your name give glory, because of Your grace and truth.”
Psalm 115:1 CJB

How true nothing is about us, it’s all about the LORD, who is amazing and does great things! Realize, He saved us from eternity in hell and gave us eternity with Him in heaven, because of what He has done!

“But will redeem me from Sh’ol’s control, because He will receive me.”
Psalm 49:15 CJB

We all, from time to time, need to be reminded of how good our God is and know that we’ve been redeemed!
May your day be richly blessed, knowing you’re saved!
Shabbat Shalom!

“Standing at a distance, for fear of her torment, they will say, Oh No! The great city! Bavel, the mighty city! In a single hour your judgment has come!”
Revelation 18:10 CJB

Notice how the concern here isn’t people or salvation it’s all about the material things of the world! Just like people today, they are more worried about their possessions!

“The world’s businessmen weep and mourn over her, because no one is buying their merchandise any more-stocks of gold and silver, gems and pearls, fine linen and purple, silk and scarlet, all rare woods, all ivory goods, all kinds of things made of scented wood, brass, iron, and marble; cinnamon, cardamon, incense, myrrh, frankincense, wine, oil, flour, grain, cattle, sheep, horses, chariots-and bodies-and people’s souls.”
Revelation 18:11-13 CJB

It is sad that we see people around us more concerned about possessions than what can really give them joy and hope, which is the LORD! What is even sadder is we see this among so called believers today!

“The fruits you lusted for with all your heart have gone! All the luxery and flashiness have been destroyed, never to return!”
Revelation 18:14 CJB

Today, let’s put all our hope in the LORD who will never let us down and not the world and its flashy things that will always leave us disappointed and empty!
Have a blessed day in the LORD!

“The kings of the earth went whoring with her, and the people living on earth have become drunk from the wine of her whoring.”
Revelation 17:2 CJB

When this happens, the body of believers will be taken home, so this will be a thousand times worse, but we see these things happening today! Not just in the secular world, but also in the body of believers! We have false teachers, deceitful teachers and just pure liars speaking in many pulpits today! The solution is we need to be in the word of God studying it and knowing it!

“The time is coming, says Adonai Elohim, when I will send famine over the land, not a famine of bread or thirst for water, but of hearing the words of Adonai.”
Amos 8:11 CJB

We see this today, a famine for the word of God. People simply just don’t want or care to hear it and far too many preachers are willing to accommodate!

“For the time is coming when people will not have patience for sound teaching, but will cater to their passions and gather around themselves teachers who say whatever their ears itch to hear. Yes, they will stop listening to the truth, but will turn aside to follow myths.”
2 Timothy 4:3-4 CJB

Today, we see this happening now. Folks put more effort into activism, sports and politics than they do the word of God!
We don’t have to fall into that trap. We all need to spend more time in prayer and studying His word so we can understand the times we are living in!
Have a blessed day in Him!

“Then I heard the altar say, Yes, Adonai, God of heaven’s armies, Your judgments are just!”
Revelation 16:7 CJB

No matter what we may think or what our opinions may be, the judgments of the LORD are perfect and just! Just realize it is the world that is out of whack!

“I know that Adonai gives justice to the poor and maintains the rights of the needy.”
Psalm 140:12 CJB

We all need to just trust the LORD in everything and know that He is doing great things, no matter what we see going on in the world!

“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who changed darkness into light and light into darkness, who change bitter into sweet and sweet into bitter!”
Isaiah 5:20 CJB

Today, we see the words of Isaiah playing out before our eyes, but remember, the LORD is gonna have the last word and will give justice in due time! So don’t get frustrated our dismayed, instead rejoice knowing the LORD has it all under control.
Have a blessed day knowing that!
