Devotions

“The archers attacked him fiercely, shooting at him and pressing him hard; but his bow remained taut; and his arms were made nimble by the hands of the Mighty One of Ya`akov, from there, from the Shepherd, the Stone of Israel.”
Genesis 49:23-24 CJB

The idea here like Yoseph we are going to be attacked, but God will defend us and strengthen us!

“They will fight against you, but they will not overcome you, for I am with you, says Adonai, to rescue you.”
Jeremiah 1:19 CJB

Like Jeremiah, God is warning us we will be attacked and persecuted, but understand He has overcome the world and will defend us wherever we go!

“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

We don’t need to worry about what people think! Why? Because Adonai is with us every step of the way, watching over us and defending us! We just need to stand strong in Adonai!
Have a blessed day in Yeshua!

“Moreover, I am giving to you a sh’khem (portion) [shoulder, ridge, share, city of Sh’khem] more than to your brothers ; I captured it from the Emori with my sword and bow.”
Genesis 48:22 CJB

Favoritism? Maybe, but this is where Yoseph’s bones will lie! When we give all, God will give all!

“I exhort you, therefore, brothers, in view of God’s mercies, to offer yourselves as a sacrifice, living and set apart of God. This will please him; it is logical Temple worship for you.”
Romans 12:1 CJB

Temple worship means you act the same way at church as you do when you walk out!

“I, Adonai, called you righteously, I took hold of you by the hand, I shaped you and made you a covenant for the people, to be light for the Goyim (nations).”
Isaiah 42:6 CJB

God will always give us more when we do more for Him, this doesn’t mean do to get, but do because we love Adonai and it’s reasonable to serve Him!
So let’s serve Adonai today!

“They replied, You have saved our lives! So if it pleases my lord, we will be Pharaoh’s slaves.”
Genesis 47:25 CJB

Because a man saved the lives of the Egyptians, they dedicate their lives to serving him! Yeshua has saved our lives from eternity in Hell, do we dedicate our lives to Him in everything?

“Serve Adonai with gladness. Enter His presence with joyful songs.”
Psalm 100:2 CJB

Understand we are where we are at because that is where Adonai has placed us! Because He saved our lives, let’s dedicate ourselves to serving Him!

“Be aware that Adonai is God; it is He who made us; and we are His, His people, the flock in His pasture.”
Psalm 100:3 CJB

Often times, as believers, we tend to forget who made us and saved us! So today, let’s be reminded that Adonai is the one who saved us and who we get to serve in everything!
Have a super blessed day serving Adonai!

“Israel took everything he owned with him on his journey. He arrived at Be’er-Sheva and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Yitz’chak (Isaac).”
Genesis 46:1 CJB

Here we see Israel (Jacob) prayed and worshipped God before He went on this journey to Egypt! Do we take the time to pray before we do anything?

“Give thanks to Adonai; for He is good, for His grace continue forever.”
1 Chronicles 16:34 CJB

No matter what our situation is, let’s call on Adonai to go before us! Cover anything we say or do in prayer!

“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

Like Joshua, we need to be strong, bold and courageous as we go out into the world! Remember, God is always with us wherever we go! Let’s call on Him before we speak or do anything!
May your day be blessed calling on Adonai!
