“Trouble is hungry for him, calamity ready for his fall; disease eats away at his skin; the first stages of death devour him gradually.”

“For You have shut their minds to common sense; therefore you will not let them triumph.”

This should be comforting when we see the out of control insanity in the world around us, knowing they won’t triumph!

“Adonai has mixed up their minds with a spirit that distorts judgment, so they make Egypt stagger in whatever she does, like a drunk staggering in his vomit.”

So rejoice in Him today, because we have Yeshua as our guide and we don’t have to stagger around blind!

Have a blessed day knowing the plans of God are perfect no matter how things look!

“Do you listen in on God’s secrets? Do you limit wisdom to yourself?”

A simple thought here! How much time do we spend in the word of God seeking His secrets and wisdom found in His word?

“When you seek Me, you will find Me, provided you seek for Me wholeheartedly.”

We need to be seeking God in everything and in every situation, He has wisdom to give and secrets to reveal to help us grow!

“Your word is a lamp for my foot and light on my path.”

“If a man dies, will he live again? I will wait all the days of my life for my change to come.”
Job 14:14 CJB

Here we see even Job knew that He will be with God after he breaths his last breath on earth, he will breath his next with Adonai for all eternity! How do we know? Read what he says!

“But I know that my Redeemer lives, that in the end He will rise on the dust; so that after my skin has thus destroyed, then even without my flesh, I will see God.”
Job 19:25-26 CJB

Life can and does throws trials and tribulations at us! It seems when we get through one then there is is one right after it, it never seems to end! Understand one day when our skin (flesh) is destroyed we will be with Him! That should give us hope!

“Don’t let yourselves be disturbed. Trust God and Me. In my Father’s house are many places to live. If there weren’t, I would have told you; because I’m going there to prepare a place for you. Since I am going and preparing a place for you, I will return to take you with Me; so where I am, you may be also.”
John 14:1-3 CJB

So understand we will have trials and tribulations in this world, but one day we will get through and be with Him!
Have a blessed day!
