“But if you will not do this, then you have sinned against Adonai, and you must understand that your sin will find you out.”
Numbers 32:23 CJB

The LORD knows all and sees all! He sees the good we do and also the bad things! Don’t get hung up on the bad things of the world or the mistakes we make, but instead, let’s seek the LORD and His good!

“Don’t delude yourselves: no one makes a fool of God! A person reaps what he sows.”
Galatians 6:7 CJB

Realize that we can’t hide sin from the LORD, so just repent and be forgiven and like Jesus said: “Go and sin no more”.

“Come, let’s sing to Adonai! Let’s shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation!”
Psalm 95:1 CJB

Today, we know what we’ve done wrong and so does the LORD. He forgives and forgets when we repent, so should we!

“He has removed our sins from us as far as the east is from the west.”
Psalm 103:12 CJB

Today, don’t get hung up dwelling on past or present evil. Let’s instead dwell on and share the Good News of the LORD and His salvation!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!

“Be strong! Take courage! Don’t be afraid or distressed on account of king of Ashur (Assyria) or all the horde he brings with him. For the One with us is greater than the one with him-he has human strength, but we have Adonai our God to help us and fight our battles! The people took heart at the words of Hizkiyahu (Hezekiah) king of Y’huda (Judah).”
2 Chronicles 32:7-8 CJB

We can take heart also, because no matter how big our enemy seems to be, our God is bigger!

“No one will be able to withstand you as long as you live. Just as I was with Moshe, so I will be with you. I will neither fail you nor abandon you.”
Joshua 1:5 CJB

I so love our LORD. He goes before us, he is right with us and He never leaves us, no matter how rough it gets! Nothing can take us down! We are “Blood bought and bullet proof” we have nothing to fear! So let’s rejoice!

“This is the day Adonai has made, a day for us to rejoice and be glad.”
Psalm 118:24 CJB

Today, no matter how big the problems may seem, our LORD, is always bigger! Today, is a day made especially for us by the LORD, so let’s rejoice in the Him!
Shabbat Shalom!

“Every project that he undertook in order to seek his God, whether in the service of the house of God or in connection with Torah and the mitzvot, he did with his heart; and so he succeeded.”
2 Chronicles 31:21 CJB

In other words, it’s not that he succeeded in worldly things, but instead in godly things! Do we measure our success with a worldly measure or a godly one? Don’t use the world’s standards of success money, position or popularity. All these things will let you down eventually!

“Oh, magnify the LORD with me, And let us exalt His name together.”
Psalm 34:3 NKJB

We need to hear the word of the LORD and do what it says! In this we will have success in Him!

“Don’t deceive yourselves by only hearing what the Word says, but do it!”
James 1:22 CJB

Today, let’s be doers, magnifying the LORD and sharing His Good News of Salvation! We will always find hope, satisfaction and success in the LORD!
Have a blessed day in Him!

“Also in Y’hudah the hand of God was at work, uniting their hearts to do what the king and the leaders had ordered in accordance with the word of Adonai.”
2 Chronicles 30:12 CJB

Know this, no matter what is going on, the hand of the LORD is working and is upon us! The question is, is our heart united with His?

“See, the sky, the heaven beyond the sky, the earth and everything on it all belong to Adonai your God.”
Deuteronomy 10:14 CJB

What a great comfort it is to know that everything belongs to the LORD! Knowing this should make us desire even more to be united with the LORD!

“Desist, and learn that I am God, supreme over the nations, supreme over the earth.”
Psalm 46:10 CJB

Today, don’t get all hung up on the world and its trappings! Here in Psalm 46:10; desist actually means “drop it” and just learn from the LORD! So spend some time learning from the creator of the universe, learning from Him.
Have a blessed day being united with the LORD!

“For our ancestors acted treacherously, they did evil from the perspective of Adonai our God, they abandoned him, they turned their faces away from where Adonai lives and turned their backs on Him.”
2 Chronicles 29:6 CJB

Nothing good ever comes from turning our backs upon the LORD! Unfortunately, this is what we see going on around us today, the world is turning their backs on God! What we need to be doing is calling on the LORD!

“Then, if my people, who bear my name, will humble themselves, pray, seek my face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin and heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14 CJB

Like Hezekiah, who sees all the evil going on around him, humbles himself and starts making things right, we need to do the same. Stop pointing fingers at what is bad, but instead humble ourselves and seek the LORD! Remember, we are His people, not the God rejecting world!

“Adonai, You are kind and forgiving, full of grace toward all who call on You.”
Psalm 86:5 CJB

We are all aware of the evil happening around us, what we need to do is not react with opinions and anger, but instead we need to be seeking the LORD!

“Seek Adonai and His strength; always seek His presence.”
Psalm 105:4 CJB

Today, spend time seeking the LORD, checking to see if maybe there is some evil hanging out in you! Then call on the LORD who forgives, then share that grace and mercy towards others! May our day be richly blessed seeking and praying to the LORD!
