“Has He struck Israel as He struck those who struck him? Or has He been slain according to the slaughter of those who were slain by Him?” Isaiah 27:7

It would seem that God judges Israel more than other nations when we read this. The truth I believe is when we see the truth and light of the LORD it creates responsibility for us that know Him! So yes He is harder on the ones He loves and He loves you!

“It is better to trust in the LORD Than to put confidence in man.” Psalm 118:8

Even though in life we can have some difficulties when we walk hard with the LORD, but we will always be better off! When we don’t walk in the ways of the LORD, remember we aren’t getting away with anything and are creating messes!

“The LORD has chastened me severely, But He has not given me over to death.” Psalm 118:18

So don’t put off the things that the LORD instructs you to do! He has installed His Spirit in us, and has given us His word to guide us, so we have no excuse not to walk uprightly!

“Your word I have hidden in my heart, That I might not sin against You.” Psalm 119:11

Today if your lost, confused or just don’t know what to do! Pray, get into the word and wait for the LORD to direct you, also shut off all the worlds distractions. Have a blessed day in the LORD. Shabbat Shalom

“Then the LORD said to Moses, Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh. For with a strong hand he will let them go, and with a strong hand he will drive them out of his land.” Exodus 6:1

Here we see Moses is discouraged, Pharaoh basically laughs at him and makes the task of Moses seem even more impossible! The LORD just reminds Moses here now watch what I’m going to do!

“Remember His marvelous works which He has done, His wonders, and the judgements of His mouth.”

1 Chronicles 16:12

The same goes for us, things at times may and do look impossible for us to get through, but not with the LORD! Remember all creation looks and leans on the LORD, nothing is over Him or above Him! Just remember all the things He got you through before.

“This is the day the LORD has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24

Today, this very day, this very moment the LORD has made! If you feel overwhelmed, stressed and life is just out of your control. Great, now watch and see what the LORD is going to do! Remember He made the day and is totally aware of every situation and He has a perfect plan! So let us rejoice and be glad, having a blessed day in Him!

“But he said, O my LORD, please send by the hand of whomever else You may send.” Exodus 4:13

Why do we argue with the LORD or even try to negotiate with Him?

“The voice of the LORD is powerful; The voice of the LORD is full of majesty.” Psalm 29:4

We all know when the LORD gives us direction we need to obey and go or do. We all know when the LORD says yes or no to a situation or decision, so why do we argue and twist scripture to fit our choice?

“Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.”

Psalm 119:105

Let us seek the LORD and obey His voice today. Let’s look to His word and seek His will for our lives, He will always get His way. Also His way is always going to be better and easier in the long run.

“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.”

Isaiah 55:9

Today when the LORD gives you directions, don’t try to make excuses or pass the buck! Just step out in faith and do what the LORD says! Have a blessed day in Him!

“Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.” Exodus 3:9

The LORD hears and sees all the things that are going on in us and around us! He sees and hear’s everything and has all situations under control.

“For His eyes are on the ways of man, And He sees all his steps.” Job 34:21

Often times like Moses who forty years earlier, tried to deal with the oppression of Israel and ended up in a desert where God could deal with Him! This is what often happens to us, we blow it and then end up in a desert asking when will You get us out?

“Hear my cry, O God; Attend to my prayer.” Psalm 61:1

Let us rejoice in the fact that the LORD hears our prayers and is attending to them! Our problem is we just get stuck in a rut never moving or doing! You will never get to where the LORD wants you to go, until you go!

“Blessed is every one who fears the LORD, Who walks in His ways.” Psalm 128:1

Today you maybe feeling oppressed, depressed or even stressed! Know this the LORD knows so call upon Him and take a step and walk in His ways! Have a blessed day!

“And she bore him a son. He called his name Gershom, for he said I have been a stranger in a foreign land.” Exodus 2:22

When we look around us we see a lot of things that should make us uncomfortable! WHY? Because we really are strangers in a foreign land!

“So God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.”

Exodus 2:24

The LORD doesn’t forget or ignore us, He just always has a bigger plan than we can see! Things are going just the way God has always planned it, often times it is us who need to get on the same page as Him! When we start to see the world around us get more and more weird, we should desire to have more and more of the LORD!

“For you are a holy people to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth.” Deuteronomy 7:6

Realize today that you and I are that special, holy (set apart) people to the LORD! He hears our groaning and knows we are strangers in a foreign land! So hang on and set your eyes upon Him knowing He has it all worked out! Have a blessed day!
