God chose you

“How blessed are those you choose and bring near, so that they can remain in your courtyards! We will be satisfied with the goodness of your house, the Holy Place of your temple.”
Psalm 65:4 CJB

This is amazing that God chose us to be with Him! It also should comfort us to know that He desires us to be with Him for all eternity!

“Don’t let yourselves be disturbed. Trust in God and trust in Me.”
John 14:1 CJB

Understand as hard as the world around us gets, the best thing we can do is trust in God!

“In My Father’s house are many places to live. If there weren’t, I would have told you; because I am going there to prepare a place for you. Since I am going and preparing a place for you, I will return to take you with Me; so that where I am, you may be also.”
John 14:2-3 CJB

Today, let’s rejoice in the fact that God has chosen us to be with Him!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!

Discipline happens

“Suddenly God shoots them down with an arrow, leaving them with wounds; their own tongues make them stumble. All who see them shake their heads.”
Psalm 64:7-8 CJB

In the Old Testament, the idea of God shooting arrows can be anything from deadly diseases, bondage from governments or natural calamities, usually bought on by the worldly decisions made by people!

“But if you will not do this, then you have sinned against Adonai, and you must understand that your sin will find out.”
Numbers 32:23 CJB

People and society can and do fall into captivity when they make ungodly decisions! Bad choices can lead to God using the very disasters that man created to correct us!

“Heal me, Adonai, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved, for you are my praise.”
Jeremiah 17:14 CJB

Today, even though we may go through a season of captivity by our bad choices, and are disciplined because of them, remember God is always faithful to heal and forgive!
Have a blessed walking in God’s forgiveness!

Praise Adonai

“I used to contemplate You in the sanctuary, seeing Your power and glory; for Your grace is better than life. My lips will worship You.”
Psalm 63:2-3 CJB

Here we see David is in the desert and reflecting on the times when he was in the sanctuary of Adonai worshipping! We need to have that same longing for Adonai, no matter where we are!

“Proclaim with me the greatness of Adonai; let us exalt His name together.”
Psalm 34:3 CJB

When we are going through desert times, where we feel our walk is dry. It’s always good to remember the times we were filled with the joy of Adonai and then just simply bless Him!

“Bless Adonai, my soul! Everything in me, bless His holy name!”
Psalm 103:1 CJB

Today, no matter where you are and what you may be going through, remember just bless and thank Adonai for all things! He has a perfect plan for all our lives!
Have a blessed day being happy in Adonai!

Jesus can set you free!

“My safety and honor rest on God. My strong rock and refuge are in God.”
Psalm 62:7 CJB

If you want real freedom, then put all your hope and trust in God, to experience real freedom! You will be free from the bondage of sin and the sting of death!

“Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting?”
1 Corinthians 15:55 CJB

Death and sin have no hold on believers! The gift of freedom is free in Yeshua!

“But thanks be to God, who gives us victory through our LORD Yeshua the Messiah!”
1 Corinthians 15:57 CJB

When we give our lives to God, we are freed from all the sinful things that hold us down!

“What the Messiah has freed us for is freedom! Therefore, stand firm, and don’t let yourselves be tied up again to a yoke of slavery.”
Galatians 5:1 CJB

Today, know that if you believe in Yeshua you are free!
Have a blessed day standing in the freedom Yeshua has given us!

God is a refuge

“For You have been a refuge for me, a tower of strength in the face of the foe.”
Psalm 61:3 CJB

So glad as a believer that I have God as my refuge in times of trouble, in fact He is my refuge all the time!

“I will live in Your tent forever and find refuge in the shelter of Your wings.”
Psalm 61:4 CJB

We will always find rest in the arms of God! This is why we need to look to Him for everything!

“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you; don’t be distressed, for I am your God. I give you strength, I give you help, I support you with My victorious right hand.”
Isaiah 41:10 CJB

Today, with all the distractions and distresses in life, know that we can always find peace and refuge in the arms of God!
Have a blessed day in Yeshua!
