Shine

“Y’hoshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before Adonai, and there Y’hoshua divided the land among the people of Israel according to their regions.”
Joshua 18:10 CJB

There is always more work that needs to be done for Adonai! There is also plenty to go around, everyone has a fair share according to what God has ordained us to do! Just remember we represent God in everything we do!

“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

Yes, we all need to be shining the light of Adonai before all people we come in contact with, that is our job, so to speak! When people respond to that light and receive salvation, we then claim more territory for Adonai!

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

Today, let’s be taking spiritual land, sharing salvation through Yeshua!
Have a blessed day!

Step out

“The descendants of Yosef replied, The hills won’t be enough for us; and all the Kenaani living in the valleys have iron chariots-both those in Beit-Sh'an and its villages and those in the Yizreel Valley.”
Joshua 17:16 CJB

The first complaint here is we don’t have enough and the second one is getting what we need has too many obstacles! Adonai says you have what you need to conquer the obstacles before you and we always have enough!

“The lover of money never has enough money; the lover of luxury never has enough income. This too is pointless.”
Ecclesiastes 5:9 CJB

We all can want more or even complain that we can’t get to where we need to be because of obstacles, but God says I have given you everything you need! We just need to stop whining about things and start just doing!

“For Adonai, God, is a sun and a shield; Adonai bestows favor and honor; He will not withold anything good from those whose lives are pure.”
Psalm 84:11 CJB

Today, remember the answer for everything we need is found in Yeshua! So let’s look to Him today who will supply all our needs!
Have a blessed day!

We are God’s heritage

“So the descendants of Yosef, M’naseh and Efrayim took the inheritance.”
Joshua 16:4 CJB

Here we see that even though we are undeserving, God still gives us an inheritance and our inheritance is in Him!

“Adonai knows what the wholehearted suffer, but their inheritance lasts forever.”
Psalm 37:18 CJB

Our earthly inheritances don’t last, but our heavenly inheritances with Adonai are forever!

“How blessed is the nation whose God is Adonai, the people He chose as His heritage!”
Psalm 33:12 CJB

Today, realize how blessed we are to be part of God’s inheritance. We really are His!
Have a blessed day!

We need boundaries

“The territory chosen by lot for the tribe of the descendants of Y’hudah according to their families extended to the border of Edom in the Tzin Desert, toward the Negev in the far south.”
Joshua 15:1 CJB

God makes it clear here that borders and boundaries are good for us! Not just with land but also with people, we need to be careful of overstepping our bounds!

“Avoiding quarrels brings a person honor; for any fool can explode in anger.”
Proverbs 20:3 CJB

When we have boundaries we keep from quarreling and having bitterness! So it’s good to just let things go and not cross lines that could get us into trouble!

“A person whose desire rests on You, You preserve in perfect peace, because he trusts in You.”
Isaiah 26:3 CJB

Today, realize it is good to have borders and boundaries in life! Allow God to be that boundary and watch and see His perfect peace!
Have a blessed day!

God has you!

Now, look: Adonai has kept me alive these forty-five years, as He said He would, from the time Adonai said this to Moshe, when Israel was going through the desert. Today I am eighty-five years old, but I am as strong today as on the day Moshe sent me-I’m as strong now as I was then, whether for war or simply for going here and there.”
Joshua 14:10-11 CJB

God gives us all the strength to do the tasks that He has set before us! Whether it’s right now or forty-five years from now it is Adonai who strengthens us and also keeps His promises!

“Therefore, give me this hill, the one Adonai spoke about on that day; for on that day you heard how the `Anakim were there with great, fortified cities; perhaps Adonai will be with me, and I will drive them away, as Adonai said.”
Joshua 14:12 CJB

We may feel old or unqualified, but remember it is Adonai who strengthens us, prepares us and also goes before us! So we can complete every task that is set before us. So be bold and go for the mountain that is set before you!

“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.”
Psalm 41:10 CJB

Today, let’s not be in fear or afraid to step out in the LORD and do the things that He has set before us! Remember He has us covered in everything!
Have a blessed day in Him!
