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

This festival is something we all should be aware of! Why? Because we will be celebrating it for all eternity when we Sukkot (Tabernacle) with Yeshua!

“He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings you will find refuge; His truth is a shield and protection.”
Psalm 91:4 CJB

When we Sukkot or tabernacle with Adonai, we will always have joy! The beautiful thing is we can do it daily, celebrating it once a year is just a bonus blessing!

“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 14:3 CJB

Today, let’s look for opportunity’s to spend time with Adonai and let’s also take the time to see Yeshua in all the feasts and festivals of God!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!

“Then he said to the king, Here is what Adonai says: Because you have let escape the man I had given over to be destroyed, you will pay with your life for his life and with your people for his people.”
1 Kings 20:42 CJB

How often does Adonai give us victories, but we don’t complete them? This is what happened here. Adonai gave Ahab victory over Syria, but he just didn’t finish the job!

“He did what was right from Adonai’s perspective, but not wholeheartedly.”
2 Chronicles 25:2 CJB

When Adonai gives us instruction we need to wholeheartedly and completely do as He asks!

“How happy are those who observe His instruction, who seek Him wholeheartedly!”
Psalm 119:2 CJB

Today, we need to look to completing and finishing everything that God gives us to do! Remember, He completely saved us and that should encourage us to not give up!
May your day be filled with blessings completing the tasks of God!
Shabbat Shalom!

“He answered, I have been overzealous for Adonai the God of armies, because the peoples of Israel have abandoned Your covenant, broken down Your altars and killed Your prophets with the sword. Now I’m the only one left, and they’re coming after me to kill me too.”
1 Kings 19:10 CJB

Just like Elijah, we can feel defeated and alone! We also can feel left out or we were once used and now we are just watching others doing great things! These times are called the desert, times of reflection and growing! God isn’t through with you yet!

“So Avram went, as Adonai had said to him, and Lot went with him. Avram was 75 years old when he left Haran.”
Genesis 12:4 CJB

No matter where we look in scripture, we can find plenty of people who served Adonai at an old age, waiting in the wings to be called! Moses, Joshua and Caleb all waited for their time to be called! We need to be preparing for that day!

“Commit your way to Adonai; trust in Him, and He will act.”
Psalm 37:5 CJB

Today, as you are waiting to be called, we can be preparing by committing our ways to Adonai and looking for any opportunity to share His good news of salvation!
Have a blessed day waiting on Adonai!

“Then Eliyahu said to the people, I, I alone, am the only prophet of Adonai who is left, while Ba`al’s prophets number 450.”
1 Kings 18:22 CJB

Just like Elijah, we can feel all alone, overwhelmed and even defeated! Remember this is the farthest thing from the truth! Yeshua is always with us every step of the way!

“Haven’t I ordered you, Be strong, be bold? So don’t be afraid or downhearted, because Adonai your God is with you wherever you go.”
Joshua 1:9 CJB

Elijah wasn’t alone and neither are we! There is always someone else going through the same things we are! What do we do? Pray!

“When Job prayed for his friends, Adonai restored his fortunes; Adonai gave Job twice as much as he had before.”
Job 42:10 CJB

Today, let’s be all about praying for each other and watch how Adonai blesses! You may not get great riches, but you will get His great peace!
Have a blessed day serving Adonai!

“So he went and acted according to the word of Adonai-he went and lived in Vadi K’rit near the Yarden.”
1 Kings 17:5 CJB

This is what we need to be doing also, just simply living by the word of God! We see here that Elijah doesn’t even question God, he just does what He says!

“I will find my delight in Your regulations. I will not forget Your word.”
Psalm 119:16 CJB

Where do we find our delight? Is it in Adonai or is it in the world?
We can never go wrong when we are in the word of God, just doing what it says!

“If you love Me, you will keep My commands.”
John 14:15 CJB

Today, we will always be doing much better when we just do what God tells us in His word!
Have a blessed day living, listening to God!
