“So I ask you not to be discouraged by the troubles I endure on your behalf-it is all for your glory.”
Ephesians 3:13 CJB

Don’t think that your difficult situation that you may be going through is for no reason! It’s to glorify God and to encourage others and to strengthen you also!

“Furthermore, we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called accordance with His purpose.”
Romans 8:28 CJB

It may seem like all things are against us and that we can’t ever succeed, but with God and in God we will always have success. We need to just trust!

“Haven’t I ordered you, ‘Be strong, be bold’? So don’t be afraid or downhearted, because Adonai is with you wherever you go.”
Joshua 1:9 CJB

We don’t need to worry about anything! Because Adonai has a plan and it’s perfect and we are part of it!
So let’s give Him glory and praise His name today!
Shabbat Shalom!

“For you have been delivered by grace through trusting, and even this is not your accomplishment but God’s gift.”
Ephesians 2:8 CJB

This is really good news that it’s not our own works that save us, but it’s the free gift from God!

“You were not delivered by your own actions; therefore no one should boast.”
Ephesians 2:9 CJB

Rejoice that we are saved by grace not our own works, but remember this doesn’t give us free rein to do as we please! We can’t work our way to Heaven, but we can work our way out of Heaven!

“So then, are we to say, Let’s keep on sinning, so that there can be more grace? Heaven forbid! How can we, who have died to sin, still live in it?”
Romans 6:1-2 CJB

Dead men and women can’t sin! Why? Because they are dead and when you are dead you can’t do any thing more! So how do we who are alive keep from falling into sin? Repent and be in His Word!

“I treasure Your Word in my heart, so that I won’t sin against You.”
Psalm 119:11 CJB

The more we are immersing ourselves in His Word the more unlikely we will be sinning!
Have a blessed day being in the Word of God!
Shabbat Shalom!

“In Messiah He chose us in love before the creation of the universe to be holy without defect in His presence.”
Ephesians 1:4 CJB

This still amazes me that the creator of the Universe not only made us, but chooses us to be His Royal Priesthood!

“I thank you because I am awesomely made, wonderfully; your works are wonders-I know this very well.”
Psalm 139:14 CJB

Adonai, has perfectly and wonderfully made us to worship Him, to glorify Him and to proclaim His Good News of Salvation! So let’s do it!

“But you are a chosen people, the King’s cohanim, a holy nation, a people for God to possess! Why? In order for you to declare the praises of the One who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light.”
1 Peter 2:9 CJB

We always need to be reminded of this: God has chosen us out of the world to be His representatives to the world! So let’s declare His glorious news of Salvation with all we come in contact with!
May your day be richly blessed!

“So let each of you scrutinize his own actions. Then if you do find something to boast about, at least the boasting will be based on what you have actually done and not merely on a judgment that you are better than someone else; for each person will carry his own load.”
Galatians 6:4-5 CJB

The only boasting we should do is boast about what God has done in your life! The only scrutinizing we should do is what is in our own lives! We are all responsible for our own walks!

“Don’t delude yourselves: no one makes a fool of God! A person reaps what he sows.”
Galatians 6:7 CJB

Not only should we scrutinize what we do, we need to be careful what we sow! Be very mindful of what we say and do!

“Your word is a lamp for my foot and light on my path.”
Psalm 119:105 CJB

The more we are in the Word of God and do what it says the less we will have to scrutinize our behavior!
May your day be richly blessed!
