“Even so, in Your great compassion, You didn’t completely destroy them; nor did You abandon them, for you are a compassionate and merciful God.”
Nehemiah 9:31 CJB

No matter how bad we blow it, our LORD is compassionate and forgiving! All any of us have to do is look in the mirror and we know just how bad we are!

“But You, Adonai, are merciful, compassionate God, slow to anger and rich in grace.”
Psalm 103:8 CJB

Often times we all need to be reminded how good and how compassionate the LORD is!

“Give thanks to Adonai; for He is good, for His grace continues forever.”
1 Chronicles 16:34 CJB

Today, let’s be thankful and grateful to how good the LORD is to us! Also, realize because of His grace and mercy we don’t get what we deserve, a sinners Hell!
May your day be richly blessed by Him!

“Then he said to them, Go, eat rich food, drink sweet drinks, and send portions to those who can’t provide for themselves; for today is consecrated to our LORD, Don’t be sad, because the joy of Adonai is your strength.”
Nehemiah 8:10 CJB

With all that is going on in the world today, remember, it’s is the LORD who is our strength! Let’s be filled with His joy!

“Adonai is my strength and shield; in Him my heart trusted, and I have been helped. Therefore my heart is filled with joy, and I will sing praises to Him. Adonai is strength for [His people], a stronghold of salvation to His anointed.”
Psalm 28:7-8 CJB

The world around us is a mess, but the LORD isn’t! So don’t put your hope in the world, put it in the LORD!

“Put your hope in Adonai, be strong, and let your heart take courage! Yes, put your hope in Adonai!”
Psalm 31:24 CJB

Today, let’s be filled with the joy of the LORD, look for the good things that the LORD is doing and especially look for the day we will be with Him!
Have a blessed day in Him!

“My God put it in my heart to assemble the nobles, the leaders and the people, so that they could be registered according to their genealogies.”
Nehemiah 7:5 CJB

Here is a thought. Sometimes we may feel left out or maybe feel our lives don’t matter! But, in the LORDS eye’s we do, we are all counted!

“He will redeem them from oppression and violence; their blood will be precious in His view.”
Psalm 72:14 CJB

No matter how left out or forgotten we may feel! Realize we are extremely precious to the LORD, we all count!

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only and unique Son, so that everyone who trusts Him may have eternal life, instead of being utterly destroyed.”
John 3:16 CJB

Today, no matter what remember in the eyes of the LORD we are precious to Him! The LORD counts us and knows us and our lives matter to Him!
Have a blessed day knowing we are in His hands!

“I sent him this answer; Nothing like what you are saying is being done. You’re making it all up in your head.”
Nehemiah 6:8 CJB

Here Nehemiah is saying to the troublemakers around Israel, “you’re making things up, they’re nothing but liars”! Sound familiar? Nothing is new today. Nonbelievers make up nothing but lies about believers, so be on guard!

“I will stand at my watch post; I will station myself on the rampart. I will look to see what [God] will say through me and what I will answer when I am reproved.”
Habbakuk 2:1 CJB

We all need to be watchmen and women on the wall, so to speak, watching for the LORD and doing what He guides us through His word to do! Don’t get caught up in watching and sharing the junk of the world, because the world is full of lies and deceit!

“Seek Adonai and His strength; always seek His presence.”
1 Chronicles 16:11 CJB

Today, don’t get caught up in the lies and nonsense of the world, but instead be caught up in the LORD! Let’s be watching, seeking and sharing the good news of the LORD and His salvation!
Have a blessed day!

“If you forget Adonai your God, follow other gods and serve and worship them, I am warning you in advance today that you will certainly perish.”
Deuteronomy 8:19 CJB

How will you perish? By following things other than the LORD, which will always lead you to destruction! Remember, it is the LORD who blesses us and gives us all our needs!

“I call on Adonai, who is worthy of praise; and I am saved from my enemies.”
2 Samuel 22:4 CJB

It’s the LORD who saves us as a result of us simply calling on His name and believing who He is, LORD!

“Give thanks to the LORD of LORDS, for His grace continues forever.”
Psalm 136:3 CJB

Today, don’t forget how good the LORD is. Everything good that happens is a result of how good He is! Remember, we are saved and this world is not our home!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!
