“Then they were afraid and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, Why do you seek the living among the dead?”

Luke 24:5

We often do the same things today look for living things among dead things! When we are supposed to be alive in the LORD!

“You also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual acceptance to God through Jesus.”

1 Peter 2:5

Often depression and sickness in our lives comes from us playing around in dead stuff! We worship a living God, not a dead object made of wood, stone or concrete!

“You will show me the path of life: In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”

Psalm 16:11

Today let us seek living not the dead! Let us worship the living LORD, not dead worldly things! Have a blessed day In the LORD!

“Then He said, Go out, and stand on the mountain before the LORD. And behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake; and after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice.”

1 Kings 19:11-12

In the Hebrew its not a small voice or a whisper, God was in THE ABSOLUTE SILENCE! In other words for us don’t look at the wild distractions we can see around us! Like fires, earthquakes, rocks splitting or fake news! Let us be silent and still!

“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”

Psalm 46:10

Often times as we go through life all we do is talk and act out making a lot of noise, being still and keeping silent before the LORD is something we should do! Waiting and listen for His voice is a good thing!

“But the LORD is in His holy temple. Let all the earth keep silence before Him.”

Habakkuk 2:20

Today realize we all have things going on around us, decisions that need to be made, choices to make and directions to go. Instead of being in busy mode, try being in silent and listening mode! Have a blessed day. Shabbat Shalom!

“And on the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work.”

Numbers 28:25

The LORD really wants us to take a break, and just hang out and reflect upon Him!

“But know that the LORD has set apart for Himself him who is godly; The LORD will hear when I call to Him.”

Psalm 4:3

When we set apart time for the LORD, He is right there to spend that precious time with us.

“But my eyes are upon You, O God the LORD; In You I take refuge; Do not leave my soul destitute.”

Psalm 141:8

We all should take a break, and spend time with the LORD! Set some time to be apart with the LORD this week, you’ll be blessed!

“Let the LORD, the God of the sprits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation.”

Numbers 27:16

This doesn’t mean that a bunch of men can lay hands on someone and suddenly they are anointed! It means look for the LORD’s anointing on someone, be sure the man leading is being led by the spirit not the flesh!

“The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.”

Isaiah 11:2

We also need to make sure the LORD is leading us also! Is what we do and say being led by the LORD or our flesh!

“Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”

Matthew 11:29

Today if we really want to be independent from the world, all we have to do is follow hard after the LORD, and look to leaders who are doing the same! Have a blessed day filled with the freedom of the LORD!

“Take account of the people twenty years old and above, just as the LORD commanded Moses and the children of Israel who came out of the land of Egypt.”

Numbers 26:4

It’s good from time to time to make an account of yourself. To see what part of you is for the LORD and what parts are still in the world!

“Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil.”

Proverbs 4:27

We need to take account of our lives; But we also need to remove the evil junk in it.

“Remove from me the way of lying, And grant me Your law graciously.”

Psalm 119:29

Take some time today to make a assessment of your life! Check to see if you have some stuff to remove and remove it! Have a blessed day walking in the grace of the LORD!
