“When King Hizkiyahu’s servants came to Yesha`yahu (Isaiah), he said to them, Tell your master that this is what Adonai says: Don’t insult me. I will put a spirit in him that will make him hear a rumor and return to his own land; then I will cause him to die by the sword in his own land.”
2 Kings 19:5-7 CJB

In other words, Isaiah is saying don’t worry or panic about what a worldly leader threatens you with! God and His people will prevail!

“God, who gives me grace, will come to me; God will let me gaze in triumph at my foes.”
Psalm 59:10 CJB

We all need to be comforted with the fact that we are protected by God and He will have victory over our foes, which are His also!

“With Adonai on my side as my help, I will look with triumph at those who hate me.”
Psalm 118:7 CJB

Today, no matter what happens in the world around us, know that God is going to be victorious!
So have a blessed day living in His victory!

“He put his trust in Adonai the God of Israel; after him there was no one like him among all the kings of Judah, nor had there been among those before him.”
2 Kings 18:5 CJB

We will never be let down when we put our full trust in Adonai and not worldly stuff!

“But Adonai-it is He who will go ahead of you. He will be with you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you, so don’t be afraid or downhearted.”
Deuteronomy 31:8 CJB

We have nothing to fear when we totally put our trust in Adonai! The world and the people who belong to it will always let you down and try to trip you up! But not Yeshua!

“Trust in Adonai with all your heart; do not rely on your own understanding.”
Proverbs 3:5 CJB

In other words don’t look at what you see or even think you know, but instead trust Adonai!

“For we live by trust, not what we see.”
2 Corinthians 5:7 CJB

Today, just simply trust Adonai and don’t be fooled on what we see or think we know!
Have a blessed day in Adonai!

“The people of Israel secretly did things that were not right, according to Adonai their God. They built high places for themselves wherever they lived, from the watchtower to the fortified city.”
2 Kings 17:9 CJB

I find this funny in a way that the people of Israel thought they could do something secretly and hide from Adonai! God knows all and sees all!

“The eyes of Adonai are everywhere, watching the evil and the good.”
Proverbs 15:3 CJB

Understand God sees everything and knows exactly what is going to happen next! We need to be on the side of Adonai in everything! Understand God doesn’t choose sides. It’s either you are on His side or you are not! There is no doing things in secret!

“Adonai is in His holy temple. Adonai, His throne is in heaven. His eyes see and test humankind.”
Psalm 11:4 CJB

Today, let’s make sure the things we say and do are of Adonai and for Him!
Have a blessed day seeking His ways!

“Rather, he lived in the manner of the kings of Israel; he even made his son pass through fire [as a sacrifice], in keeping with the abominable practices of the pagans, whom Adonai had thrown out ahead of the people of Israel.”
2 Kings 16:3 CJB

At this time the kings of Israel were as evil and abominable as they come, they acted just like the pagan world around them! We need to be careful of becoming like the pagan world we live in!

“I will not allow before my eyes any shameful thing. I hate those who act crookedly; what they do does not attract me.”
Psalm 101:3 CJB

This is something we all need to practice, not allowing anything in that is ungodly and evil! We need to practice righteousness and be very careful of what and who we support!

“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

Today, the best thing we can do is reflect the good things our God does and don’t reflect the ugly things of the world! We need to stand for God!
Have a blessed day!

“Haven’t you known, haven’t you heard that the everlasting God, Adonai, the creator of the ends of the earth, does not grow tired or weary? His understanding cannot be fathomed.”
Isaiah 40:28 CJB

This should be comforting to us, that Adonai never stops, He doesn’t sleep or get tired, He just keeps going! He also knows and understands everything!

“He invigorates the exhausted, He gives strength to the powerless.”
Isaiah 40:29 CJB

How encouraging this should be as we go forth in our day. Adonai strengthens us. All we have to do is look to Him!

“So let us not grow weary of doing what is good; for if we don’t give up, we will in due time reap the harvest.”
Galatians 6:9 CJB

Today, let’s go forward and do great things for Adonai!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!
