How important is spirituality in your life?
Jesus is everything
Pray
“While they were finishing up eating all the vegetation in the land, I said, Adonai Elohim-please! How will tiny Ya`akov(Jacob) survive? So Adonai changed His mind about this. It won’t happen, Adonai said.”
Amos 7:2-3 CJB
Did God change His mind because He was wrong or because of prayer? The answer is quite clearly prayer! Prayer really does change everything, but it has to be sincere prayer! Not I’m praying because I got caught or a half hearted bless my mess prayers!
“When Iyov (Job) prayed for his friends, Adonai restored his fortunes; Adonai gave Iyov twice as much as he had before.”
Job 42:10 CJB
The idea here is to pray for not just yourself, but pray for others! It’s kind of easy tp pray for your own situations, but praying for others can at times be difficult! Why? Because we all can be judgmental or want to interact and counsel instead of just praying!
“But I tell you, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!”
Matthew 5:44 CJB
The idea of persecute you could also be written irritate you! Today, instead of getting irritated and angry, try sincerely praying for blessings on those who may come against you! Then watch and see what God will do in your life!
Have a blessed day in Yeshua!
Shine
“You drink wine by the bowlful and anoint yourselves with the finest oils, but feel no grief at the ruin of Yosef (Joseph).”
Amos 6:6 CJB
This is the truest of true things we see today! People including so-called believers do this today, only caring about themselves and making sure that they have the best and most of everything! They take special trips, they stay in special places and do expensive things, but care less about the ruin of many!
“The oppressor of the poor insults his Maker, but he who is kind to the needy honors Him.”
Proverbs 14:31 CJB
Adonai desires us to reflect His light, being kind and not self-centered and greedy! Being kind is reflecting His light!
“In the same way, let your light shine before people, so that they may see the good things you do and praise your Father in Heaven.”
Matthew 5:16 CJB
This verse doesn’t say do good things so your name can shine on a billboard, it says let your good works shine so Adonai can be glorified! Today, do things that reflect the light of Adonai!
May your day be richly blessed by doing what is right in Adonai!
Amos 5
Seek God with a whole heart!
“For here is what Adonai says to the house of Israel: If you seek Me, you will survive.”
Amos 5:4 CJB
We need to be seeking Adonai in all things if we really want to survive! He is always the way of refuge and salvation!
“When you seek Me, you will find Me, provided you seek for Me wholeheartedly.”
Jeremiah 29:13 CJB
The key is seeking God wholeheartedly, not half– hearted or just when we get into trouble, then move until the next incident!
We need to seek God early and continually throughout the day!
“I love those who love Me; and those who seek Me will find Me.”
Proverbs 8:17 CJB
Seeking God before trouble hits is always best! We don’t know what a day will bring! But God has warned us through His Word that disaster is always waiting to happen, so we need to be seeking Him in everything!
Have a blessed day seeking Adonai!
