“You are to obey My rulings and laws and live accordingly; I am Adonai your God.”
Leviticus 18:4 CJB

When we come to Adonai and are saved from our r worldly flesh and brought to life in Yeshua, realize our old nature should be left for dead and we need to not return to it! We are a new creation!

“Therefore, if anyone is united with Messiah, he is a new creation-the old has passed; look, what has come is fresh and new!”
2 Corinthians 5:17 CJB

Now that we are alive in Yeshua, remember we are now His holy anointed priesthood, tasked with the privilege to share the Good News of Salvation!

“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

Today, remember you were once dead in sin and God gave you a new life in Him! Now we are His royal priesthood and we get to share His Good News!
Let’s have a blessed day doing so!
Shabbat Shalom!

“Why are the nations in an uproar, the peoples grumbling in vain?”
Psalm 2:1 CJB

We see this happening around us now, uproar of nations and grumbling people all around us! Why?

“The earth’s kings are taking positions, leaders conspiring together, against Adonai and His anointed.”
Psalm 2:2 CJB

The hostility towards God, Yeshua and His people (us) is getting pretty intense! When you are outspoken about God, expect people to push back and that pushback is getting harder! Remember it will be OK. God has you covered and the anger is towards Him. We are just the only physical thing they can touch!

“And indeed, all who want to live a godly life united with the Messiah Yeshua will be persecuted.”
2 Timothy 3:12 CJB

Today, even as the world is getting more hostile towards believers! All we need to do is shine brighter for Yeshua! Our joy is in Adonai!
Have a blessed day shining for Adonai!
Shabbat Shalom!

“How blessed are those who reject the advice of the wicked, don’t stand on the way of sinners or sit where scoffers sit!”
Psalm 1:1 CJB

We all need advice and direction from time to time! It’s where we get that advice is really important. Do we get it from the world (the wicked) who are just sinners who scoff at God? Or are we getting it from God?

“All a man’s ways are pure in his own view, but Adonia weighs the spirit.”
Proverbs 16:2 CJB

We really need to be seeking the ways of Adonai and not the world banks, the media and politics. They don’t have the answers! But God in His word has all the answers!

“Let the wicked person abandon his way and the evil person his thoughts; let him return to Adonai, and he will have mercy on him; let him return to our God, for He will freely forgive.”
Isaiah 55:7 CJB

Today, if you’re stressing out, then this is the day to be like a tree that plants itself by the streams of living water of God’s word!
May your day be richly blessed!

“I had heard about You with my ears, but now my eye sees you; therefore I detest [myself] and repent in dust and ashes.”
Job 42:5-6 CJB

Job now hears from Adonai and sees Him as the creator of the universe and repents! What a joyous day when sinners repent and come to a saving knowledge of Yeshua!

“He has removed our sins from us as far as the east is from the west.”
Psalm 103:12 CJB

What an amazing thing it is to be saved and how awesome it is that God redeems us then restores us!

“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

Realize, when we are saved it should lead us to pray for the lost to be saved! He gives us life in abundance, maybe not riches and possessions, but life!
Today, have an amazing day knowing you are saved and if you aren’t then today is a good day to repent!

“No one is fierce enough to rouse him, so who can stand up to Me?”
Job 41:2 CJB Verse 10 in other translations.

God created behemoth and leviathan, which He could destroy with a snap of a finger, but man didn’t stand a chance against them! The question is who can stand against God? The answer is no one!

“The mountains quake before Him, and the hills dissolve; the earth collapses in His presence, the world and everyone living in it.” Who can withstand His fury? Who can endure His fierce anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, the rocks broken to pieces before Him.”
Nahum 1:5-6 CJB

Again, the answer is no one and nothing can win against God, but the good news is we can take refuge in Him!

“Adonai is good, a stronghold in time of trouble; He takes care of those who take refuge in Him.”
Nahum 1:7 CJB

Today is a good day to take refuge in Adonai. We will always be better off when we are under the shadow of His wings!
Have a tremendously blessed day in Yeshua!
