Repent

“As for you, go and learn what this means: ‘I want compassion rather than animal-sacrifice.’ For I didn’t come to call the ‘righteous, but sinners.”
Matthew 9:13 CJB

Often times we feel we need to sacrifice something, do something or give something to be forgiven! The problem with this kind of thinking is we are never healed, because we never simply just repent! The only way we gain forgiveness is when we repent, then God does the rest!

“That if you acknowledge publicly with your mouth that Yeshua is LORD and trust in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be delivered.”
Romans 10:9 CJB

God grants us salvation by what He has done and all we have to do is call on the name of Adonai!

“But I will call on God, and Adonai will save me.”
Psalm 55:16 CJB

Today, don’t try to do things on your own, but instead simply call on Adonai!
Have a blessed day in Him!

Trust Adonai

“He said to them, Why are you afraid? So little trust you have! Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and there was a dead calm.”
Matthew 8:26 CJB

This is like all of us when the storms of life roll in we freak-out! What we need to do is just trust in Adonai!

“In their trouble they cried to Adonai, and He rescued them from distress. He silenced the storm and stilled its waves.”
Psalm 107:28-29 CJB

Often times we panic and get worried! What we need to do is be still and desist from worry!

“Desist, and learn that I am God, supreme over the nations, supreme over the earth.”
Psalm 46:10 CJB

No matter what troubles and turmoil are going on around us, remember, God is supreme over all things and is He who allows storms in our lives for direction, protection and even correction! So, let’s just trust Him in the storms of life!
Have a blessed day trusting Adonai!

Delight yourself in Adonai

“Keep asking, and it will be given to you; keep knocking, and the door will be opened too you.”
Matthew 7:7 CJB

The key here is to keep asking, not to get what you want, but to have a deeper relationship with Adonai, to have His desires to become your desires! The more we Seek Adonai, the more we see things His way!

“Seek Adonai and His strength; always seek His presence.”
1 Chronicles 16:11 CJB

We need to keep seeking Adonai for everything, His desires need to become our desires! How? By delighting ourselves in Him!

“Then you will delight yourself in Adonai, and He will give you your heart’s desire.”
Psalm 37:4 CJB

Notice it’s delight yourself in Adonai first, then He gives you your heart’s desire!

“Commit your way to Adonai; trust Him, and He will act.”
Psalm 37:5 CJB

Today, commit your way and trust Adonai! Then watch how He will act and grant you His heart’s desire for you!
May your day be richly blessed!

Don’t worry

“Don’t worry about tomorrow-tomorrow will worry about itself! Today has enough tsuris (troubles) already!”
Matthew 6:34 CJB

Our lives are filled with all kinds of troubles, big and small, but the biggest troubles we have are the ones that never happen at all! We all can make bigger problems out of what isn’t a problem!

“Don’t worry about tomorrow; who knows what will befall you today?”
Jewish folk saying!

“What I am leaving you is shalom (peace)-I am giving you My shalom. I don’t give the way the world gives. Don’t let yourself be upset or frightened.”
John 14:27 CJB

There are things in life that can and do stress us out, but ask yourself how much of that is stuff we just imagine?

“Can any of you by worrying add an hour to his life?”
Luke 12:25

The answer here is NO!
We all can and do spend way to much time worrying and making up scenarios in our heads that never happen! Don’t! Instead simply trust and believe in Adonai!

“But I, I trust in You, Adonai; I say, You are my God.”
Psalm 31:14 CJB

The answer to all our problems, even the ones we imagine, can be found by trusting God and searching His Word for answers!
Have a blessed day!
