Be humble

“Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, so that at the right time He may lift you up.”
1 Peter 5:6 CJB

This is something we all need to do. We all need to be humble and allow God to do His thing!

“Throw all your anxieties upon Him, because He cares about you.”
1 Peter 5:7 CJB

As believers in Yeshua, we really have nothing to be anxious about! We don’t need to worry about health, wealth or turmoil happening in the world around us! Why? Because, Yeshua, has it all covered. All we have to do is trust and pray!

“Stay sober, stay alert! Your enemy, the Adversary, stalks about like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.”
1 Peter 5:8 CJB

Today, let’s be watching and praying, knowing the LORD has it all covered!
Have a blessed day in Him!
Shabbat Shalom!

Life has issues

“Dear friends, don’t regard as strange the fiery ordeal occurring among you to test you, as if something extraordinary were happening to you.”
1 Peter 4:12 CJB

As believers, we should never think it strange when we have trials and tribulation on this side of eternity! The good news for us is we have Yeshua to guide us through!

“That such is God, our God forever; He will guide us eternally.”
Psalm 48:14 CJB

Even though we have all kinds of trials and tribulations in life, we always have the LORD to guide and protect us!

“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

Today, no matter how hard it gets, remember the LORD is right there with us!
Have a blessed day knowing any ordeal you’re going through the LORD is right there in it!

Be consumed by the LORD

“For Whoever wants to love life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit, turn from evil and do good, seek peace and chase after it.”
1 Peter 3:10-11 CJB

We, as believers, need to be living life to its fullest. The best way to do that is to not let the trials of life consume us! Also be careful of deceitful evil words about others! Instead, let’s be consumed by the LORD and speaking about His glory!

“I am continually consumed with the longing of Your rulings.”
Psalm 119:20 CJB

The LORD and His Word should consume us. When the world and its trappings consume us, we get vile in our acts and our speech!

“Let’s come into His presence with thanksgiving; let’s shout for joy to Him with songs of praise.”
Psalm 95:2 CJB

Today, let’s love life in the LORD, saying and doing things that please Him!
Have a joyful day in the LORD!

Chosen

“But you are a chosen people, the King’s cohanim (priests), a holy nation, a people for God to possess! Why? In order for you to declare the praises of the One who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light.”
1 Peter 2:9 CJB

We always need to be reminded of this: God has chosen us out of the world to be His representatives to the world!

“Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; before, you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.”
1 Peter 2:10 CJB

We all were once lost in the world, doing ungodly things. Now we are the people of God, His chosen ambassadors sharing His grace and mercy!

“Dear friends, I urge you as aliens and temporary residents not to give in to the desires of your old nature, which keep warring against you; but to live such good lives among the pegans that even though they now speak against you as evil-doers, they will, as a result of seeing your good actions, give glory to God on the day of His coming.”
1 Peter 2:11-12 CJB

Today, two things: don’t get caught up in the world, but instead be caught up in the LORD and share His glorious Good News. That’s what we get to do!
Have a blessed day in Him!

Everything fades

“For all humanity is like grass, all its glory is like a wildfire-the grass withers, and the flower falls off; but the Word of Adonai lasts forever. Moreover, this Word is the Good News which has been proclaimed to you.”
1 Peter 1:24-25 CJB

Everything we see here on earth will fade away and come to an end! Accept the LORD and His Word will last forever!

“The grass dries up, the flower fades; but the word of our God will stand forever.”
Isaiah 40:8 CJB

No matter what we see happening in the world today, we must always remember that the LORD is in control and He will last forever and the only way we last is in Him! All our projects, business building and our buildings will disapear!

“Adonai will reign forever and ever.”
Exodus 15:18 CJB

Today, let’s not get caught up in all the sillines of the world, but let’s instead get caught up in the awesomeness of the LORD!
Have a blessed day in Him!
