“The night is almost over, the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and arm ourselves with weapons of light.”
Romans 13:12 CJB

In other words, the dark days we are living will come to an end and the light we find in God will completely take over!

“How happy are the people who know the joyful shout! They walk in the light of Your presence, Adonai.”
Psalm 89:15 CJB

Whatever may be going on in our lives, things will always be best when we walk in His light! Not the artificial light of this world, His light which gives us life, filled with His joy!

“But if we are walking in the light, as He is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of His Son Yeshua purifies us from all sin.”
1 John 1:7 CJB

So let’s focus on Adonai, not the darkness that fills the world! Knowing that even with life’s ups and downs things are always better in His light!
May your day be richly blessed!
Shabbat Shalom!

“Do not be conquered by evil, but conquer evil with good.”
Romans 12:21 CJB

This really is one of the hardest things to overcome! Why? We have evil thoughts all the time! You may say not me! But, how do you feel when you are cut off in traffic? How do you feel when your neighbor does something wrong to you? How do you feel when your boss overlooks you or reprimands you for no reason? These are just a few things that can make us have evil thoughts towards each other!

“You heard that our fathers were told, ‘Do not murder,’ and that anyone who commits murder will be subject to judgment. But I tell you that anyone who nurses anger against his brother will be subject to judgment; that whoever calls his brother, ‘you good-for-nothing!’ will be brought before the Sanhedrin; that whoever says, ‘Fool!’ incurs the penalty of burning in the fire of Ge-Hinnom!”
Matthew 5:21-22 CJB

Anger shows us how much we need a Savior, because if we are honest we all get angry and anger leads to evil thoughts! We all need to check ourselves on the things that irritate us, then focus on repenting and give the issue over to God!

“Don’t take vengeance on or bear a grudge against any of your people; rather, love your neighbor as yourself; I am Adonai.”
Leviticus 19:18 CJB

So don’t hold grudges or think we need to have vengeance, instead give it over to Adonai and watch how He will deal with it!
Have a blessed day letting anger go and giving it over to Adonai!
Shabbat Shalom!

“For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen.”
Romans 11:36 CJB

From Him or out of Him come all things, He is the source of everything! Through Him, means God is all-sufficient and the source of every good thing! Unto Him, means that all beings are accountable to Him!

“By the word of Adonai the heavens were made, and their whole host by a breath from His mouth.”
Psalm 33:6 CJB

God brought all things into existence by His voice and breath! We need to give Him all praise and honor!

“Let them praise the name of Adonai; for He commanded, and they were created.”
Psalm 148:5 CJB

Today, understand that all things were created by God, even the situations we may be uncomfortable with! With that said we need to simply praise Him for all!
Have a blessed day giving God all the glory!

“So trust comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through a Word proclaimed about the Messiah.”
Romans 10:17 CJB

The Word points to Messiah and also helps build our trust in Him! The more we hear and share the Word of God, the stronger our trust and faith comes!

“You who fear Adonai, trust in Adonai! He is their help and shield.”
Psalm 115:11 CJB

Life does bring us a great amount of things to be fearful of! Health, finances and daily issues! What do we put our trust in? When we put our hope in Adonai our trust will grow!

“Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we praise the name of Adonai our God.”
Psalm 20:7 CJB

If you want your faith built up, get into the Word of God and He will build your trust in Him!
Trust God not the world!
May your day be blessed!
