“My God, remember favorably everything I have done for this people!”
Nehemiah 5:19 CJB

The cool thing is God knows all and sees all! He knows our thoughts and deeds! What we need to realize one day all our deeds will go through God’s righteous fire and only His glorious deeds will last!

“For You, God, have tested us, refined us as silver is refined.”
Psalm 66:10 CJB

We should be thankful that God is refining us, because if it’s left up to us we will just be unclean!

“All of us are like someone unclean, all our righteous deeds like menstrual rags; we wither, all of us, like leaves; and our misdeeds blow us away like the wind.”
Isaiah 64:5 verse 6 in other translations.

When we start to look at what we’ve said and have done, the only things that are really done right are the things we did with Yeshua leading us!

“But each one’s work will be shown for what it is; the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire- the fire will test the quality of each one’s work.”
1 Corinthians 3:13 CJB

Today, let’s be a body of believers that encourages each other to do the right thing, that’s God’s things and not our own! It also should show us that we need to became full of doing righteous things! Why? There will be an accounting of our foolish acts!
Have a blessed day trusting in Yeshuah!

“All of them together plotted to come and fight against Yerushalayim and thus throw us into confusion.”
Nehemiah 4:2 CJB verse 8 in other translations.

This is the plan of the enemy: attack and cause confusion! We just need to be aware of this and keep our eyes fixed and focused on Adonai!

“My eyes are always directed toward Adonai, for He will free my feet from the net.”
Psalm 25:15 CJB

We will never fall into the net of deception that’s cast out daily against us by the enemy when we keep our eyes on Adonai!

“Stay awake, and pray that you will not be put to the test-the spirit indeed is eager, but human nature is weak.”
Matthew 26:41 CJB

Today, be alert, stay awake and always be in prayer, because the world around us is full of confusion!
Have a blessed day!

“Don’t cover their guilt, don’t let their sin be wiped out from before You; because they have insulted the builders to their face.”
Nehemiah 3:37 CJB chapter 4:5 in other translations.

We believers can and do get upset with sinners and want Adonai to deal with them immediately! But I believe God allows it to go on so we have opportunity to pray and share about God’s amazing grace! Also don’t worry no one will get away with sin, God will deal with it in His perfect timing!

“All day long my mouth will tell of your righteous deeds and acts of salvation, through their number is past my knowing.”
Psalm 71:15 CJB

Instead of looking for God to judge sinners, let’s be praying for them to repent and be saved!

“But I tell you, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!”
Matthew 5:44 CJB

Today, let’s be a people who are praying for the lost, even the ones that hate and insult you!
Have a blessed day praying and sharing!

“Yitro said, Blessed be Adonai, who has rescued you from the Egyptians and from Pharaoh, who has rescued the people from the harsh hand of the Egyptians.”
Exodus 18:10 CJB

Yitro (Jethro), who was an unbeliever at the time, couldn’t deny how great Adonai is! He more than likely thought he would never see Moses again and now here he is with all the children of Israel!
In other words, Jethro is blown away by the amazing power of God!

“Now I know that Adonai is greater than all other gods, because He rescued those who were treated so arrogantly.”
Exodus 18:11 CJB

As believers we should be looking for opportunities to glorify Adonai, so unbelievers can see the great things that He does! God is always performing miracles. We just need to proclaim them!

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

Today, let’s glorify Adonai and proclaim all the great things He does!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!

“All of them together plotted to come and fight against Yerushalayim and throw us into confusion.”
Nehemiah 4:2 CJB Verse 8 in other translations

This is always the plan of the enemy to cause confusion in our lives! Just look at the world today. We have people confused about their sex, confused about when life begins and just simply confused about right and wrong!

“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who change darkness into light and light into darkness, who change bitter into sweet and sweet into bitter!”
Isaiah 5:20 CJB

The world we are living is definitely confused and out of order! Don’t get caught up in it, but instead be caught up in Adonai!

“For God is not a God of unruliness but of shalom (peace). As in all the congregations of God’s people.”
1 Corinthians 14:33 CJB

Today, realize God is not confused nor are the people who follow Him! What is confused is the world that is led by the great deceiver satan who instills confusion!
Have a blessed day knowing God gives us order and shalom!
Shabbat Shalom!
