“Moshe said to the people of Israel, See, Adonai has singled out B’tzal’el the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Y’hudah.”
Exodus 35:30 CJB

We talked about this in chapter 31, but it is worth mentioning again, just like B’tzal’el, God has singled us out also for His service and anointed us to do it!

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

As we are all singled out to serve Adonai, we just can’t hear but we also must be doers! How do we know what to do? By being in His Word!

“Your instruction is a wonder; this is why I follow it.”
Psalm 119:129 CJB

We are so blessed that God not only singles us out for service, He also gives us simple instruction on how to do it!
Have a blessed day knowing you were chosen by God to serve Him!

“Do not cast metal gods for yourselves.”
Exodus 34:17 CJB

What God is saying here is don’t make false gods, because there is only one God, and anything else will let you down!

“You are to have no other gods before Me.”
Exodus 20:3 CJB

What do you let stand before you and God? Is it disease, government or a job? Is it health, wealth or even poverty? Don’t build things that get in the way of your walk with God!
How do we keep things from getting in the way?

“He told him, You are to love Adonai your God with all your heart and with all your soul and all your strength.”
Matthew 22:37 CJB

We all may have issues in life, but we can’t let them get in the way of walking with God!
Have a blessed day walking in His ways!

“Moshe replied, If Your presence doesn’t go with us, don’t make us go on from here.”
Exodus 33:15 CJB

In other words we shouldn’t try to do anything or go anywhere without Adonai!

“May the favor of Adonai our God be on us, prosper for us all the work that we do-yes, prosper the work that we do.”
Psalm 90:17 CJB

What a great way to look at things, May Adonai give us favor and prosper the work of our hands! Life is always going to be better with Adonai! Remember He really is with us and goes before 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

So let’s be strong because we have Adonai by our side and going before us! So let’s not do anything without Adonai!
Have a blessed day in Adonai!

“Moshe pleaded with Adonai his God. He said, Adonai, why must your anger blaze against your own people, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and a strong hand?”
Exodus 32:11 CJB

In verse 7 God calls the people of Israel, Moshe’s people! Moshe replies to God that it was He and He alone who had the power to bring these people out! Moshe is admitting that only God has the power to move anything, God is in total control!

“Thus says God, Adonai, who created the Heavens and spread them out, who stretched out the earth and all that grows from it, who gives breath to the people on it and spirit to those who walk on it.”
Isaiah 42:5 CJB

God has given us life and everything that is good in life is from Him! So even when we blow it as the children of Israel had done here, God is still able and just to forgive when we repent! So let’s be like Moshe and intercede in prayer for others!

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

Simple thing to understand: we will all blow it, but the good news is all we have to do is repent and God is faithful and just to forgive! What we need to remember is like Moshe’s, the people belong to God, but what we get to do is intercede!
Have a blessed day praying for others!

“When He had finished speaking with Moshe on Mount Sinai, Adonai gave him the two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.”
Exodus 31:18 CJB

How amazing it is God gave us instructions on how to live written by His very own finger.

“For this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says Adonai: I will put My Torah within them and write it on their hearts; I will be their God, and they will be My people.”
Jeremiah 31:32 CJB verse 31 in other translations.

The love that God has for us is so amazing, He doesn’t leave us hanging. He gives us clear direction on How to live and the way we should walk. It’s all found in His Word, the love letter given to us written by Him!

“I treasure Your Word in my heart, so that I won’t sin against You.”
Psalm 119:11 CJB

God does write on the tablets of our hearts, but He also has given us His Word to follow!
So have a blessed day following after Adonai!
