“You should just keep the territory your god K’mosh has given you; while we, for our part, will hold onto whatever Adonai our God has given us of the lands that belonged to others before us.”

Judges 11:24 CJB

We should always remember everything we have is from the LORD! We didn’t get it from the fake god’s of this world!

“Every good act of giving and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father who made the heavenly lights; with Him there is neither variation nor darkness caused by turning.”

James 1:17 CJB

Here is the beautiful thing about the LORD, is He is full of light and life! There is no darkness in Him at all, and His desire is to give us everything that is good for us!

“And this is the message which we have heard from Him and proclaim to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in Him-none!”

1 John 1:5 CJB

Today, know that the LORD loves us and desires nothing but the best for us! Knowing this we should have a deep desire to honor Him and walk in His ways! Have a blessed day walking in His light!

“Yoseph answered Pharaoh,It isn’t me. God will give Pharaoh an answer that will set his mind at peace.”

Genesis 41:16 CJB

Like Joseph, in everything we need to give God the glory!

“Adonai is high above all nations, His glory above the heavens.”

Our LORD, the creator of the universe, is amazing and everything He does is glorious! Today, let’s reflect his glorious light!

“But you are a chosen people, the King’s cohanim, 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.”

Today, let’s give God all the glory, let’s praise His holy name and reflect His wonderful light!

“Then the people of Israel cried to Adonai, We have sinned against You by forsaking our God and serving Ba’ alam.”

Judges 10:10 CJB

When we repent the first thing we need to do is admit that we’ve sinned against the LORD! Then we need to confess our sin!

“A person guilty of any of these things is to confess in what manner he sinned.”

Leviticus 5:5 CJB

We all should spend some time taking a deep look inside ourselves and do some house cleaning, so to speak!

“If we acknowledge our sins, then, since He is trustworthy and just, He will forgive them and purify us from all wrongdoing.”

1 John 1:9 CJB

Today, don’t hold onto things that bind us, instead confess them to the LORD and be freed of them! Have a blessed day in Him!

Shabbat Shalom!

“Once the trees went out to choose a king to rule them. They said to the olive tree, Rule over us!”

Judges 9:8 CJB

We always need to be careful of who and what rules over us! Not everyone and everything has our best interests in mind!

“But the olive tree replied, Am I supposed to leave my oil, which is used to honor both God and humanity, just to go sway over the trees?”

Judges 9:9 CJB

Like the olive tree, we need to honor God and bless our neighbors with what the LORD gives us! Don’t try to do what the LORD hasn’t given to you to do!

“But the fig tree replied, Am I supposed to leave my sweetness and my good fruit to go and hold sway over the trees?”

Judges 9:11 CJB

The LORD desires us to be sweet to those around us. When we are bitter or sour, it never is a good witness! The LORD desires us to be sweet!

“But the grapevine replied, Am I supposed to leave my wine, which gives cheer to God and humanity, just to go and hold sway over the trees?”

Judges 9:13 CJB

As believers, we are to reflect the joy of the LORD onto those around us!

“The thorn bush replied, If you really make me king over you, then come and take shelter in my shade. But if not, let fire come out of the thorn bush and burn down the leaders of the L’vanon!”

Judges 9:15 CJB

When we realize that the LORD has given us all something to do to glorify Him, we need to do what the LORD says and not try to do things He hasn’t given us! Why? Because we will end up being thorny and burn up people around us! Today, let’s embrace the LORD’S will for our lives and share His love and joy!

“Gideon replied, Neither I nor my son will rule over you; Adonai will rule over you.”

Judges 8:23 CJB

Same goes for us. We can’t take credit for what God has done or is doing. It is He alone who rules!

“For Adonai is judge, Adonai is our lawgiver, Adonai is our King. He will save us.”

Isaiah 33:22 CJB

How comforting to know it is the LORD who is in control and has all things covered!

“Adonai has established His throne in heaven; His kingly power rules everything.”

Psalm 103:19 CJB

Have a blessed day knowing the LORD rules and is in control of everything, so put all your hope in Him!
