“Efrayim says,’I have gotten so rich! I have made me a fortune! And in all my profits no one will find anything wrong or sinful.'”
Hosea 12:9 CJB verse 8 in other translations.

Like Efrayim, many men think that all their riches come from themselves! “I have made me a fortune!”

“Every good act of giving and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father who made heavenly lights; with Him there is neither variation nor darkness caused by turning.”
James 1:17 CJB

If you are a wealthy person, realize, it came from God, if you are not a wealthy person! Guess what, you are exactly where God desires you to be! Embrace the situation God has placed you in, because it’s the best place for you to glorify God!

“Adonai is high above all nations, His glory above the heavens.”
Psalm 113:4 CJB

Today, realize we are God made not man made! For those of us that understand God made all, let’s glorify Him in everything even the uncomfortable things we may be in!
Have a blessed day!

“My people are hanging in suspense about returning to Me; and though they call them upwards, nobody makes a move.”
Hosea 11:7 CJB

Why are people so bent on backsliding and going against God? Because they are full of pride and are self willed!

“A backslider is filled up with His own ways, but a good person gets satisfaction from Him (meaning God).
Proverbs 14:14 CJB

When we are trying to get satisfaction from the world it will always turn into self indulgences! It will be trying to satisfy yourself without ever being satisfied!

“Look, I am Adonai, the God of every living creature; is there anything to hard for Me?”
Jeremiah 32:27 CJB

We really need to look to Adonai, for everything! Why? Because He has all we really need!
Have a blessed day in Him!

“For now they will say, We have no king, because we didn’t fear Adonai-and what could a king do for us, anyway?”
Hosea 10:3 CJB

Sadly this is where the world is today! There is no fear of God or respect for Him, it is really all about SELF! Unfortunately people truly believe electing the right leader will solve everything! Understand no man rules unless God appoints him, so worship God!

“Adonai made everything for its purpose, even the wicked for the day of disaster.”
Proverbs 16:4 CJB

God is the creator of everything and He will use evil leaders to advance His purposes or to get His people in line with Him! We would avoid many of life’s disasters if we would simply just follow and worship God!

“You are to follow Adonai your God, fear Him, obey His mitzvot (commandments), listen to what He says, serve Him and cling to Him..”
Deuteronomy 13:5 Verse 4 in other translations.

The best thing we can do in life is cling to Adonai, Why? Because He has a firm grip on everything, especially us!
So have a blessed day following hard after Adonai, who has All things under control!

“What will you do at a designated time, on a day which is a festival for Adonai?”
Hosea 9:5 CJB

God has designated times throughout scripture for us to celebrate! We have a designated time to be born and a time to die! Also God has appointed a day of rest (Shabbat) and days throughout the year to celebrate Him! Unfortunately, many believers downgrade these appointed times, instead of just freely celebrating them and enjoying Adonai in them! It’s not a got to, it’s a get to! and one day we will all be celebrating the festivals of Adonai for all eternity!

“Finally, everyone remaining from all nations that came to attack Jerusalem will go up every year to worship the King, Adonai-Tzva’ot, and to keep the festival of Sukkot (Tabernacles).”
Zechariah 14:16 CJB

Sukkot, is probably the most joyful of all festivals in the Bible and it seems that we will be celebrating in the Kingdom! As believers we should look forward to spending any time that we can with Adonai!

“Rejoice in Adonai, you righteous; and give thanks on recalling His holiness.”
Psalm 97:12 CJB

Today, let’s always be looking for times to celebrate and rejoice in Adonai!
Have a blessed!
Shabbat Shalom!
