God is our refuge
“David got up early in the morning, he and his men, to leave and go back into the land of the Philistine; while the Philistine continued up to Yizre`el (Jezreel).”
1 Samuel 29:11 CJB
We all need to understand, as believers, we will never fit in with the world. They will reject us and then they will attack us! So where do we find safety? In Yeshua, under His wings!
“You who live in the shelter of `Elyon, who spend nights in the shadow of Shaddai, who say to Adonai, My refuge! My fortress! My God, in whom I trust! He will rescue you from the trap of the hunter and from the plague of calamities; He will cover you with His pinions (feathers), and under His wings you will find refuge; His truth is a shield and protection.”
Psalm 91:1-4 CJB
This is a great truth to memorize! Why? Because it tells us who we can trust and that is Adonai. We will find refuge, protection and truth when we are under His wings!
“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”
Psalm 46:1 CJB
We can and do have big problems in life, but God is bigger than our problems. So instead of looking to the world, look to Adonai. He is the only one who can save!
May you have a blessed day in Him!
We need Yeshua
“Samuel said, Why ask me, if Adonai has left you and become your enemy?”
1 Samuel 28:16 CJB
In other words why are you asking me what you already know? If we ignore God and do our own thing, He will ignore us, so why are we surprised!
“Hear, oh earth! I am going to bring disaster on this people; it is the consequences of their own way of thinking; for they pay no attention to My words; and as for My Torah, they reject it.”
Jeremiah 6:19 CJB
All that is going on in the world around us should lead us to desire the truth of the word of God even more! The world desperately needs Yeshua!
“Oh, land, land, land! Hear the word of Adonai!”
Jeremiah 22:29 CJB
More than ever, we need to listen and do what Adonai says!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!
Look to God for help!
“But David said to himself, One day Shaul will sweep me away. The best thing for me to do is to escape into the territory of the Philistine. Then Shaul will give up trying to find me here or there in Israel’s territory, and at last I’ll be free of him.”
1 Samuel 27:1 CJB
We all can make rash decisions like this! David is being pursued by Saul and decides to run and hide with worldly pagans! Instead of just trusting God, who anointed him to be king!
“Trust in Adonai with all your heart; do not rely on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him; then He will level your paths.”
Proverbs 3:5-6 CJB
Trusting God can and does bring us joy, peace and understanding! Looking to self brings us discouragement, fear and despair! What do you want?
“Be glad in Adonai; rejoice, you righteous! Shout for joy, all you upright in heart!”
Psalm 32:11 CJB
When we put Yeshua as your Savior, and we rely upon Him for everything, trusting that He is directing our paths! Then we will have joy in all things even the uncomfortable things!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!
God values you
“Look: just as I put great value on your life today, so may my life be given great value by Adonai. May He deliver me from every kind of trouble.”
1 Samuel 26:24 CJB
Where do we find our refuge and deliverance?
“Adonai is my Rock, my fortress and deliverer, my God, my Rock, in whom I find shelter, my shield, the power that saves me, my stronghold.”
Psalm 18:3 CJB
Is God your everything? Is He all you need? The reality is God should be everything to us, because He really is all we need!
“I call on Adonai, who is worthy of praise; and I am saved from my enemies.”
Psalm 18:4 CJB
Let’s be believers who call on Adonai for everything! Why? Because He really is everything we need!
Have a blessed day calling on Adonai!
